Caused the Chilean Trouble.
CHICAGO, Dec. 2I.-EH-Senator Fair
registered at the Grand Pacific yester-
day. Referring to the warlike dis
patches from Valparaiso, the senator
said he believed the English were re.
sponsible. He thought they did not
wish to go so far as to actually embroil
Chile with the United States, but by
constantly keeping the subject in hand,
to embitter the Chiieans to such de-
gree that they would not trade with the
Americans, land go the English will
sell more goods" said he.
Referring to the reported railroad ex-
tensions on the Pacific coast, Senator
Fair said: "There is a road being built
north from Beckwith pass which will
find terminus upon either the Ala
media or marine shore of the bay of San
Francisco, which will be opposition to
the Southern Pacific"

Mr. Gates Friend.

A rather interesting meeting Oc- cured at the Metropolitan hotel Wash ington few evenings ago when Con- gressman Owsn Scott of Illinois was in troduces to Congressman William II. Cate of Arkansas. The latter was spoken of as the first democrat that was made to walk the plank, l. G., busted from his seat by the republicans ln the Fifty-hrst congress.
 And I,5 said Mir. Scott, shaking cordially the hand of the SoutheIner- had the pleasure of beating the gen tleman who was instrume ntsi in having you unseated."
 His reference to Hon. Jonathan H. Powell, who was chairman of the cleo tions committee and whom Mir. Scott defeated last fall, was the occasion of hearty laugh. as was natural, seeing that the audiencs was exclusively dem Ocratic.
 Henceforth and forever the the feel ings of these representatives u bound to be of extreme coTdiality, for the man from Arkansas will lock upen his Illinois colleague as sort of instru- ment of retributiOn, while the latter thinks he gained votes by the other s expulsion.

The news from Russia continues to be of 4 Hust heartrc nding character More than 25,8D0 GOO Of the people are the prey Of starvation and diseases that impoverishment of the blood be- gets. They are roaming about the country in great columns in the daZed and listiess way that is . result of hopelessness amt aimIessne.s, and ap- parentiY there is no help for them. The corrupt and dependent priesthood of ths Greek church can do nothing to mitigate these conditions, 80 appall- ing and beart-breaking. and the gov ernment, administered by a rotten beaurOcracy, has n sde and is making but 4 feeble attempt to succ0r the un- fortunate. The cZar has made some spssm0dic attempts at relief, but they were as mere rain drops on the arid desert. No such calamity has visited any nation since the black death of the middle ages, and 1t ia feared that a scourge as bad as that was may grow up out Of the unburied dead bodies of men and women and chll- death. Inns Russia has become d menace tO the nations which must await results before taking any de- 5ermIned steps t0 ward 01 the threat eaing danger. They can only watch and wait for the ca.aU
 epidemic that ls to come out of J.H seething hell into which Russia la been turned by an irresponsible an despotic gOYeTament.-Memphis Com mercisl.

OUR associate editor, forgetting the
 policy and preferences of THE TINES the speskership of the Hs- tional house of representatives, rather stuItifed us last week by expressing satisfaction At the election of Mr. Crisp, when, in fact, 1e wers very much disappointed and consider the Democratic party seriously comprO- missed by the dsfeat of Ar. Mills We say ''compromised'' sdvisedly, because Nr. Mills represents the tariff reform of the Democratic party IS no other nan represents 1t; and 1t was alone the keeping to the fora Of this ldea that enablsd the democrats to sweep the country a year ago. The election of Mir. Crisp will appear as a surrender of some, at least, of these because he is not an ur- gent tariff reform man. It leaves the party open to the charge Of insincsrity and may seriously influence the result of the presidential election next year.

IN all justice, Mr. Fishback should be the next governor of Arkansas. His long and valuable services in the Democratic party entitle him to this honor. If TIE TIMES can say or do anything to promote his interests It is at his service. We are satisfied be would give us one of the cieanest, 1bisst administrations the state has ever eujoyeti.-Furres City Times.
 The World ri!l be free and outspoken on this subject. and will say that should MT. Fishback be a candidate for the nomination for governor next year. this paper will do all it can against him. We are no admirer of Fishback. and do not understand how any Southern man and democrat can support him for any office.-Heiena World.
 We regret to sec this evidence of narrovness in our generally level headed and sensible friend of the Word. If our contemporary will only stop to think moment he will remem- Der that the war has been over for nearly twenty-seyen years. During those years no man in the state has been more earnest in his labors for Arkansas or more unswsrving in bis allegiance to the Democratic party than William M Fishbsck He has never failed or faltered. No matter how ar duous the work assigned him by his party, he has performed it faithfully and uncomplainingly. Time and again he has sacrificed his personal ambition to the welfare of the party, and the man does not livs who can say he ever heard him murmur. On the con trary. he has always entered the van and been found fighting the battle of democracy with tirsless energy, and has contributed as much as any other man-more than most men-to the success of his party and the well-being of the state. We repeat that Mir. Fishback deserves the nomination for governor and should receive 1t.
