a CRANK SENATOR.

1t is easy enough to understand how a
rich crank or ignoramus can get into the
United States Senate. He can buy seat
IN that chamber Just as a good MANY ri ,h
men who are not cranks or ignoramuses
have done. When one of these latter gets
seat the reflection is not upon the inteIli-
gence of the legislature which sent him.
but upon the honesty of the state law
makers. But when a crank gets into the
Senate without buying his seat for cash or
other valuable consideration what must
one think of the legislature which chose
him!
HENRY w. BLAIR, the senior Senator
from New Hampshire, didn't buy his seat,
but he is a crank Of the most pronounced
type. 1t was he who said on the floor
OF the Senate year or two ago that he
knew for a certainty that all the leading
newspapers Of the country were controlled
by the Catholic church, which had a Jes-
uit on every editorial staff. Now, the Sen
ator didn't know any such thing: he
couldn't have known it, for it wasn't true.
He was cranky enough to believe it, how
ever, basing his supposition upon the fact
that the newspapers were not given to APP
plauding the vain and cranky bills for laws
which he was given to framing.
The Senator has just given vent to more
OF his anti newspaper bile. Beginning
two or three weeks ago he took up four or
five days of the Senate's time. and many
pages Of the Congressional Record,
with a speech in advocacy of his
educational bill. The measure has
been irreverently denominated as "a bill
to promote mendicancy." 1t proposes to
vote ten millions or such matter, of the
peoples money to aid the common schools
In the south, thus insulting the inhabit-
ants of that entire section by charging
that they are opposed to education, The
papers very considerably refrained from
publishing the dreary rot which the Sena-
tor rolled out day after day to the discom-
fitnre of the other Senators who wanted to
work, and towards the close of the awful ad-
dress BLAIR said:
1 say. Mr.. President, that this faithlessness on
the part of the American press indicates corrup-
ton and danger TO the people of this country of
the deepest dye, and believe to-day as stand
here in my place in the Senate, that the corrup-
ton, fraud and miscreancy that are now charac-
teristic of the American press, betoken of more
danger and ruin to our American institutions
than any other one thing that can be designated.
believe that it Is in league, a corrupt league
largely, 10 prevent the consideration, the spread
Of the facts which give TO the Senate that the
people of this country may be informed; ard L
am not wholly without evidence to justify my
belief that there are agencies in this country at
the bottom of the fell and internal work
If the American newspapers had run the
Senator's speech and ''spread' the sfacts''
which he gave TO the Senate, subscription
lists would have been materially reduced
before he finished, and the circulation af-
fidavit makers Of our great dailies would
have been compelled to swear harder than
oyer. If the press is in a league against
the New Hamnehira osonlr the preot

HON. THOS. c. McRAE
To Be His Own Successor--What
 the Press Think.

Hon. Thomas. C. McRae will be his own successor in Congress Calhoun Courier.
 
 It looks as if Hon. Thos. C. McRae will have no Democratic opposition for re-nominalion for Representative from the Third Congressional Dis trict. - Arkansas Gazette.
 We are of the opinion that Hon. T. C. McRae will have no opposition among the Democrats for re-elec' ton. Opposition from any other quarter amounts to nothing .- I ashington Press.
 The NEVADA C0rNTY PICAYCNE wants an expression of the press of the district as to who shall be Hon. T. C. McRae's successor. We believe we can hear the reply come back as with one voice: Let it be Hon. T. C. McRae. Lockesburg Tocsin.
 It is announced that Hon. Thos. C. McRae will be candidate for re- election to Congress. This IS as 1t should be; he has made a good rep resentative and the longer he is con- tinued in the place the greater will be his usefulness. - Ouachita Herald. 
 In an article three weeks ago we expressed the opinion that MT, McRae should be returned, and that he seemed to be the choice of the people and press. As the Arkansas Democrat said, the week following commenting on our article, 1t would be difficult indeed to select a Representative from the entire Dem- ocratic side of the House who has been more active, more vigilant, more faithful and more efficient in the discharge of his duties than Thomas C. McRae, of Arkansas.

Poison Oak.

The following extract taken from a letter written by MT. F.. A. Bell, fully explains itself:
 While surveying land in 1883, 1 accidently handled poison oak vine, and in less than three hours (the eruption usually resulting from such contact begins in ten days) my face was swollen and distgured, and my hands and arms seriously affected. 1 immediately began taking Swift $ Specific (S. $. S.), and after taking three large bottles, l found all signs of the breaking out entirely ly removed. l was led to suspect it's return at the same time next year, but it did not !. nor has there been any indications of its return since.
 My little boy, eight years old, was afflicted with the same poison in 1881, After taking several bottles of Swift's Specific (S. $. S.), the erup- tions entirely disappeared. A very slight form of the same eruption re- turned during the next spring, but we then resumed the <. $. s., and having taken enough during that season to make the cure permanent, he has not since had any return of the disease. Swift's Specific (S. $. s. certainly affected thorough cures it both these cases, and l regard it as most effective remedy for all such diseases. F.. A. BELL.

THE PRESCOTT DISPATCH.

 the friend of the people of Arkansas its editor is the high cockolorum of the Union Labor party, and pretends to fight both of the old parties.
 We examined the last issue closely found great many cuts reilectlne upon Democratic Congressmen, many extracts from the St. Louis Globe. Democrat, Arkansas State Register and other radical Republican papers, but failed to find a single unkind ref erence to the Republican party, but did find many squibs like the fol lowing:
 Norwood's majority in the second Congressional district was 2858. Il is mule cheek to claim that Breckin- ridge was elected.
 A friend remarked, If the Demo crats had succeeded in breaking the quorum, the present Congress would have been a pandemonium. V By vote of 43 to 40, Fleming was declared Governor of West Nir- ginia. "The success of the party Is paramount. Get the certificate by the crowbar and hold it by perjury
 Bursting the quorum was pande- monium scene. See our first page. Speaker Reed has the thanks of the country for cutting the pandemonl- um short. Fears were entertained that it would cover the entire session of Congress. Now the legislation can be done decently.
 1t is rumored that the committee on elections will recommend that Congress order a new election in the second Arkansas district, and that protection he afforded the candidate who opposes Breckenridge, so that he be not assassinated, in the event that he is elected.
 There is not a Republican paper in Arkansas that manifests as much hate against the Democratic party as does the Dispatch. Its columns from week to week are filled with misrep- resentation and abuse.
 Strange, strange, indeed, that peo- pie can not see that that paper is working in the interest of the Repub- lican party Texarkana Democrat,
 The above from our neighbor is well timed and correct. In his last issue, Capt. Ansley published the address of the so-called l.. l.. F., saving that State ticket would be put in the field; and, excepting the nine lines stating this fact, the entire article. two and half columns long, was a mass of vituperation and abuse of the Democratic party, charging upon it the Clayton murder, and every species of crime-a fine lot of defamation of Arkansas to scatter 10 the world. The entire article reads so much like Powell Clayton s Cor his henchmen) production, that we are forced to the conclusion it was virtually dictated by him. It is stated on good authority that Clay ton. some weeks since, decided to again use the l.. l.. F. mask to try to defeat the Democracy of Arkan- sas The Dispatch and |. l.. r. leaders all over the State are but hls tools.
 Thinking men, study to unde- ceive your neighbors, and see that Ansley, Clayton, and all such, are forever buried, politically Show this article to your friends, who have been biindly following Ansley X Co.,, and tell the truth. as it really is, about them-that all they want is of flee: ask them to come back and stand by the better clas. of our peo- ple-for Democracy and good gov ernment.

Don't you reckon Ansley is mad and wants Dr. Norwood to kick him soundly, with his'wooden leg, for not contesting Tom McRae's seat? If he had known he would have had such an easy-going thing he would have contested. sure, and would have
