oorrssponasncs of the Democrat.


 Appleton Is moving somewhat afte l former style, but as time and perss verance will improve. 80 our littl town Is Steadily and most assuredi, coming to the front.
 Spring trade is opening up here with better prospects than usual and the merchants are better sble tt furnish the surrounding country. We also claim that this portion of the county Is entitled to a share in the coming election, of at leasl one or two officers, and, the boys say--and no one can dispute it-thai R. M. Williamson would fill the of flee Of assessor with dignity to him self and honor to those who may elect him. Mir. Williamson is true Democrat, and of one of the oldest and best families of the country, hence, we hope to soon see him an nounced as candidate for the i'm portant office mentioned.
 A considerable wind storm visited our community last night. It was also accompanied by heavy rain tall. However, do not know of an } material damage.
 We were glad to note, as we were out west of town last evening ::.sas Messrs. Jas. Ratchardson and J. B. Cawhorn are adding extensively to theIr farms by taking Tn large new grounds. They also have large amount of cord wood ready for the furnace, and It will consume . large quantity to convert their saw-logs into lumber.

 K. B. Hogins, J. T. Bullock, A. Ber-
 nard, my fellow-citizens of Pope
 county:
 Gentlemen: Your call was a genu inc. though not an unwelcome sur prise. It called me back to the coun- ty of my birth and the manly popu latien that iDhabits it. To be hon ored by one's home friends, is always complimentary, but to be called to . post of honor by brave, unconquer- ed and unconquerable people, is worthy of everlasting remembrance. I appreciate the motives that actuate you in this particular, and beg to assure you that my greatest hope. in life is to continue to merit your con- fidence.
 To be State Superintendent oi Pubic Instruction for such State as our own loved Arkansas. is an honor that no one can overestimate. Rightly considered, it's importance is equal to that of any office and the proper exercise of it's functions is more far.reaching, in consequence, than that, perhaps, of any other of- flee in the gift of the people. The man who aspires to do the duties of that place, may we'll tremble ere he assumes the load. Your appreciation has strengthened my timid resolu tion, but it has not blinded me to the great gulf that stands between me and the ideal I have erected. As a friend of free, public education, as believer in It's necessity and as one who has never lost confidence in it's ultimate and complete success, am constrained to say that l place no honor higher than that of working for the public schools, and that no IcWoIu Os tuib ltiO WOuiu bC Pti1eo more than the knowledge that 1 had successfully performed the duties of the office of Superintendent of Pub lie Instruction.
 In accsding to your request, l beg to say, that If the great party te which we belong shall second the motion that you have made, and shall select me as it's candidate fol this office, will give to the place my heart, my energies and my love But, whether this shall be so ol not, assure you that hereafter al heretofore, it will ever be my privi lege and my pleasure to speak out Tn meeting for Pope county, the laad of my father, my brothers. my chlld ren and my friends, and to labo with all my power for the advance ment of the State to which we al belong. Respectfully Yours, JOSIAH H. SHrNN.

LAWYER MURDERED.

Vindictive Stephania Inflicts Death
Wound on a Wall Street Attorney.
New York. May ia terrible tragedy
occurred in Wall street this morning, A
vindictive young man named Alphonse j.
Stephania MORALLY wounded Lawyer Grin
ton G. Reynolds, of the law firm of Rey-
nolds, 60 Wall street. The murderer was
but a few hours in the city, having arrived
on the steamship Majesty, from Liverpool.
The cause of the tragedy was as follows:
Stephania's father, who carried on the fruit
business in this city, died two years ago,
leaving his wife the sole executrix. AL
phonse carried on the business, but con-
verified much of it into cash, depositine
$5O, 600 with a safe deposit company. He
ouarreled with and assaulted his mother and
two months ago went to Europe. During
his absence his mother consulted Lawyer
REYNOLDS. who advised an attachment
against the safe deposit company. He pro-
badly heard of it this morning on his ar
rival and at once went to Reynolds office,
whore he held an interview with him in the
inner office. Hearing shot fred the oc-
cupants of the outer Office rushed in and
found Stephanie standing over Reynolds
with smoking revolver in his hand and
REYNOLDS probably mortally wounded with
a bullet Just below the heart. Stephania
was arrested and Reynolds was removed to
the hospital,

A WASHINGTON dispatch to the Jour
nal officially denies that the terrible ex-
posture of Senator Quay's misdeeds has
lowered him in the esteem of the
president. "He never stood SO we'll at
the white house as he does now" adds
the dispatch. And in order to leave no
doubt about it, the correspondent adds:
THE senator calls at the white house
frequently, and can always get the ear
of the president when other persons are
refused interviews Some people
would hold that man charged with be,
ing an embezzler and thief, who remains
silent under the accusations, should be
promptly repudiated by the chief mag
istrate Of the nation who desired &c

his nature. General Grant, al

robbers and jobbers, and refused to re-
pudiate them when their mis-
deeds were brought to his at
tention, because of the loyalty OF his
friendship. Mr.. Harrison is beginning
to show the same trait of character, and
many persons, who will regret that he
has fallen among evil associates, will
commend him for giving protection to
the man who bought his office for him.
Perhaps he is less like Grant than
Hayes in this respect. The fraudulent
president, it will be remembered, gave
an office to every man who had any.
thing to DO with the crime Of 1876. But
what we fail to understand is why Mr.
Harrison still continues to think that
he is too good to associate with Dudley

THERE is no boom in Helena, and per-

man who thinks the city is not moving
forward sit down and enumerate the no.
tells, business blocks and private resi-
dences that adorn the city to-day, and
were not existence one year ago, and he
will be astonished at the result. The
early spring months have been marked
by stagnation in business all over the
country, and Helena has felt the quiet
ness of trade in common with other
communities, but there is not city in
the United States in better financial
condition, or one with better prospects.

CHAIRMAN QuAY's postponment OF the
meeting of the republican national COM
mittee has raised a row in the camp.
Many members of the committee be-
lieye that the good of the party demands
the unloading of Quay and Dudley; and
there are broad insinuations that the
Pennsylvania did not want the COM
mlttee to meet for that very reason
Now that President Harrison has de-
clared his purpose to stand by Quay, il
is probable that the chairman's fol

The Buffalo.

Denver News: History fails to furnish
parallel to the rapidity with which the
buffalo disappeared from the western
plains. In 1871 they were estimated to
number 4, OO0, 600. In 1890 the animal has
been so nearly extinguished that probably
less than 200 now exist. No other wild ami
NAL useful to man was ever SO numerous,
and their vanton and cruel destruction is
by no means bright page in our history.
While it is nearly if not quite too late to re-
pair the tremendous mistake made in the
destruction of these animals, Mr.. G. J.
Jones, of Garden City, Kan, has gathered
together herd of less than 100, and has
asked congress to pass an act setting apart
q reservation in No Mans Land upon
which he will be permitted to keep his herd.
In accordance with his request Mr..
Peters, of Kansas, introduced bill
as desired, which was referred to
the public lands committee. That
report. Should Mr.. Jones' herd of buffalo
be permitted to separate and be destroyed
the extirpation of the race would be final
and complete. In submitting the bill for
passage the committee says:
A portion of the tract of public lands
known as mo Mans Land'' is we'll adapted
to their propagation. AS with the Ameri-
can Indian. the only way to prevent his ex-
termination is to civilize him, SO the only
way to preserve the remaining buffaloes is
to domesticate them. If the present small
herd can be successfully domesticated it
may be possible to restore again to the
great plains few fragments of the great
herds that once roamed there in a wild
state. The object is worthy one, and un-
der this bill will involve no outlay whatever
to the government.
As this generation has destroyed the buff
falo, the committee says it is its duty to in
some degree make amends to posterity fol
"a mistake which may almost be denounced
as national crime." The buffalo, when
domesticated and the breeding successfully
accomplished in activity, may take his place
as one of the great food producing animals
of the world, and the reservation of a tract
of land suitable for the experiment, the
committee is of the opinion, is the cheapest
and most convenient form in which to make
the attempt of domestioation of this re-
naming herd.
