GIN. HENDERSON, an Iowa orator, and an ultra republican, has been burdening some recent speeches with soul narrowing reference to the removal last winter of a picture of George Washington from over the speakers chair in the house of rep resentatiyes and the substitution therefor of the portrait of Jefferson Davis. The placing of the Davis portrait in the only place in the hall the size of the frame warranted and the putting of the Washington plc- ture in another place, comprises the full extent of the terrible "offense." " It did not occur to the house em ploye that there was anything in the transfer but the relative sIze of the portraits. This is All there is in the story, Gen. Henderson and his fellow shriekers, to the contrary notwitb- standing.

IN speech recently made in southeast Arkansas ex senator D. E. Barker made the remarkable statement that with the exception of Senator Walker the entire Arkansas delegation in congress in 1885 shirked vote on the Crapo bill to re charter national banks. Senator Jones denied the allegation at the tune, and has since prepared from the records an elaborate review of the votes of our delegation on this question, which abundantly proves MT. Jones to be right and MT. Bar ker wrong Tn their statements. MT. Barker admits in his paper that he was mistaken in the matter, but this will be taken as very gauzy excuse for man of Mr. Barker's opportunl. ties of information. When a man essays to instruct the people upon politics or any other question he should at least be sure that his ut terances are free from error.

Their Real Purpose Disclosed |.

searcy Beacon: It has been ire O Quently charged, and as often denied, lat the real purpose of the Kansas statesmen who have invaded the South, ostensibly in the interest Of the non .partizan alliance, is to wipe out democratic majorities in the Southern States. There are, doubt less, many good, unsuspecting All laince men in this part Of the coun- try, who honestly believe there is no such intention upon the part Of Simpson, Petfer and Willetts; but the following recent utteTance oi Senator Peffer should be sufficient to indicate clearly and enthusiastically, what they are trying and hoping to accomplish. We commend it to the careful consideration of those who guilelessly believe that those Kansas statesmen are not fighting the dem ocrats:
 "If the alliance should fail in ev' erything else it proposes, but should succeed in breaking up the solid south by absorbing majority Of the democratic votes of that section, i' will deserve the lasting gratitude of the whole nation. It will have accom- plished what the managers o the republican party have spenl years of time and several millions ot dollars in valn to do, and by so do ing demonstrate its greater potency as political diplomate.

WE are assured by the ass

WE are assured by the associated press that in January next Mir. Blaine will write 8 letter declining to become the candidate of his party for the presidency, and recommend ing the re nomination of MT. Har- rlson. Although the Maine states. man has fast record as letter writer, we believe in this case the letter will never come. At least it is better to wait for the letter to be written before believing the report. If MT. Blaine is really in favor of the re nomination of Mir. Harrison, 8 letter to that effect, written Tn Jan uary, would injure rather than aid MT. Harrison's cause. With Blaine out of the race other aspirants for the nomination would consider them selves free to enter the lists, but if Blaine should decline to state up to the time of the convention whether he is or IS not 8 candidate and then withdraw, Harrison's nomination would be practically assured.

THOSE who interpret the speech made by Hon. Roger Q. Mills in Ohio as a notice of change in his at titude on the currency issue or any other issue have read the speech to very little purpose, If they have read it all, says the Republic. MT. Mills stands now as he has always stood, an advocate of tariff for rev enue only, and of the coinage of the precious metals on an equality with each other.

GOVERNOR CAMPBELL has at last opened his canvass in Ohio. By reason of his illness, that event was delayed some weeks, and during the period Maj. Mckinley had full swing and ran things about to suit himself. He has attempted to make, in con- nection with John Sherman, the sil- yer question the leading issue. Gov. Campbell has now appeared upon the scene, and from this time out Mr. Mckinley will be placed upon the defensive on the tariff issue and will find that he has enough to do without condemning free silver, a proposition he supported in congress few years ago with all the strength at his command. Gov. Campbell calls attention to this and the furth- CT fact that Mckinley and Sherman by their avoidance of the issue, have apologized for the unpopular tariff and In manner so evident that ths entire press of the country has brok' en Into a chorus of unfriendly com ment on the unexpected and humili- ating shirklng of the conceded is- sue by the republican leaders. The democratic papers have jeered Al them, while the republican papers lamely attempt to conceal theil chagrin. Now Mr. Mckinley mus meet the tariff issue, and from this time out the battle Tn Ono will b' fou ght on that line.

UNLESS some mistake has been made in the analysis, and that is highly improbable, the "tin" badge Mckinley wears emblematic of American tin industry, is a badge of ftaud. The analysis shows that It is com posed of sheet iron and mott en lead, not a particle of tin enter. ing into it's composition. Like the party he represents it is deceptive and hypocritical through and through.

VOLUME IT.

THE Columbian Exposition to be given at Chicago in 1893 will be the greatest and the grandest affair of the kind that has ever been held on earth. From every civilized land in the world, wherever man and woman feels the emotion of pride in what they may have accomplished in art, science, mechanics, architecture and invention, the choicest creations of genius will be sent as trophy of honor and merit to the nation, state and province from whence 1t comes. Nation will vie with nation, state with commonwealth, and community with community in the effort to see who will be able to show most ID commendation of the genius and might of it's people, and in token Of the resources and wealth of the va- rious parts of the habitable world. Wherever there throbs in the bre asts of the people that sentiment allud ell to in the familiar lines
 "Breathes there the man with soul so dead,
 who never to himself hath said,
 This is my own. my native land"
 the exhibits will be gathered up,- the choicest and the hest, sent in as a palpable testimony. And happy, fortunate, thrice for tunate, that locality which shall be able to bear of the palm of victory. And the garland of fame will be twined about the forehead of that commonwealth which shall bear away the palm. Arkansa must be represented on that occasion. It must be the occasion when the jibe and jest which rises now at the men tion of the name of our state must be wiped away. Her display must be such as to bear testimony to the progressiveness and intelligence of our people, and to the wondrous ex tent and wealth of our resources. By this kind of evidence we must prove the falslty of all the islanders which have been perpetrated on our state, and compell an acknowledge ment of her greatness and impor- tance. Let this be done,-let Ark ansas be recognized and known as one of the most favored sections of our country, and Tn very few years she will be one of the most wealthy aud powerful commonwealths in the south or west. But proper repre- sentatlon at Chicago cannot be made without spending considerable sum of money. If we would reap the benefit of the display we must pay something for 1t. And we'll can we afford it. With our one and . quar- ter million Of people shall it be said that Arkansas is too poor, too desti- tute of enterprise, too devoid of pride, to pay for an honorable place among her sister states and other provinces which will come from over the seas to take part in Columbia's great eventp Never! And what part does proud, gallant old Pope county, with her 19,000 people pro- pose to bear in contributing the money necessary? An appeal has been made. How shall we meet itS Now is tue season when our people are realizing from thelr years la. bors. Let each man bring his offer Ing and help swell the fund. Pope county could pay thousand dollars and no one contribute enough to feel it. The DEMOCRAT has a sub scription list, and urges every voter in the county to send in his name and contribution-two dollars, one dollar, half dollar, or twenty five cents. Other counties are chipping in, and when the list is made up Pope county must have a proud place.

SOME of the democrats who heard Alliance Lecturer Bryan here a short time ago can't understand how re publican could preach such doctrine. That is part of the scheme. His democratic hearers feeling at home during the first part of his speech because the language and doctrines sound familiar, are thought to be in a proper frame of mind to swallow the subtreasury and land loan schemes without so much as wry face. In this way it is hoped to divide the democratic vote h the south for the benefit of the republicans as outlined by Sen ator Peffer. Bryan's democracy is but cloak to conceal hls real in tentions.
