The public lands committee has been an important one in every Con gress since 1861. It has given away whole empires and has made many men of all conditions, poor, rich, honest, rasca!ly, adventurous and plodding, q great deal richer than any Aladdin's lamp could possibly have done. It's Chairman must not only be able, but honest. Judge Crisp has appointed to this burden some and honorable position Ihom- as Chipman McRae. He was born and schooed in Arkansas and studied law in the Washington and Lee University of Virginia under John w. Brockenborough and Randolph Tucker. He was member of the state legislature of Arkansas in l8S" He came to Congress to take the seat of James Marlborough Jones when the latter was elected to the United States Senate. Mir. McRae is one of
 the most direct and capable men on the Democratic side of the House. - Washington CD. co Star, Jan uary, 1892.
 The above press paragraphs, are only few of the very large number, of simular import, that we could re- produce, commenting and endorsing Mir. McRae's splendid record in Con oress. As the Nashville News, and other papers stated, and as leaders in different parts of the country have said, Mir. McRae has made a nation- al reputation. It is unnecessary for us to here enumerate the important measures he has gotton up, and by industrious, timely labor, pushed through Congress neither is 1t necessary to rehearse hs distinguish eel service on the Public Lands Com mittee-sutlce it to say he was one Of the leaders in pushing the work of restoring to the pubic domain over
 fifty million acres of unearned rail- road land, and prevented robbery aud steals from the Public domain. Mir. McRae has been an able, faith full and conscientious public servant, and not only in Arkansas, but all over the Union, both press and people have commended his efficient work in Congress. At the proper time Mir. McRae will doubtless an- nounce as a candidate for reelection, and if returned he will continue to ably and satisfactory represent the people of this district, the state and nation.
 In conclusion We will reiterate the general expression of the press and people, in saying that the longer we keep a good man in Congress, the better he can serve us-this is un- quaiiedly true. Knowing this as fact, Eastern and Northern congress ional districts make it rule to keep in, their Representatives continuously from fifteen to forty years, and this in the main accounts for the power and influence of those sections. This district will do well to keep MT. Me Rae in the place he now occupies.

In Tuesdays issue of the News, ind

bond kickerS who have no right to kick,
being no taxpayer and not entitled TO a
vote. The enterprisiBg News man says
he has examined the tax roll and finds
that pay no taxes. Now as your paper
has always been on the side of
publish this as a malicious false
hood, done with intent to iniure
me in the business community, as am
now and have been for some years past "a
property owner and taxpayer, my taxes
being paid up TO the present year. AS this
years taxes do not accrue until May 3lNt
| have got until that date TO pay this
years taxes. | have the city collectors
receipt in my pocket for the years 1889
aud 1890 and being a taxpayer | propose
to vote and try and have every other
taxpayer in the city vote against
the bonds, whether the News likes it or
not. and propose further 10 push this
matter 10 the full extent of the law. j
believe in the liberty of the press but
when a man takes advantage OF the press
to maligne ana injure man innthenbusi-
ness community by publishing false
statements as was done in this case. Ii is
time 10 call halt.
Now, Mr.. Editor, let me say that the
News is crying because IL is hurt. My
letter in last Mondays Express opened
the peoples eyes. aud the News sees the
defeat Of the bonds. His honor, the may
or. has come 10 the rescue this morning,
but he is too weak, and the little trick of
waiting to the last day to publish IL, shows
how weak they really are; he don't want
any one TO answer him. But if every tax
payer will come TO Rische's opera house
tonight at s O'Clock will show them by
actual figures that if those bonds were is
sued the current expense of the city for

A BRUTAL EXHIBITION.
A Prize Fight Between two Negroes

About 500 so-called respectable people
attended a brutal prize fight between two
negroes at one Of the theatres in the city

the room and jumped on the negro lying
in the bed, who yelled out, 'Get off me
white man, what you doing on me?" and
thus pretended to be just waking up.
On the police making their entrance a
panic ensued, and the crowd in the house
commenced trying to get out
Some Went through windows, glass and
all; others stumbled out of the second

were hunting out a lot OF cut thrOats. and
broke in door where they all piled in,

Lithograph Stone IN III.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, April l4.-State
Geologist Joshua Lindshl. from The
hes, Alexander County. says that
photographic stone of @ fine quality
exists in large quantities near that
place. Experiments with the stone
have been made In photographic es-
Establishments in st. Louis. Chicago
aud New York, and it is said to be
the finest photographic stone in this
country. About all of the lithogra-
phic stone used in this country comes
from Solenhopen. Bavaria, and
as the supply becomes less and
the demand greater Bavarian
stone becomes more expensive.
Lithographic stone is found here and
there in this country In Alabama,
California, Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri,
Tennessee and Texas, but in most in
stances the supply lie very limited
and the quality poor. Prof. Lindahl
has made no personal investigation
of the stone in Alexander County, but
the reports that come to him state
that it is almost as fine IS the b.
varian stone. Prof. Lindahl proposes
to make an exhibit of this stone at
the Worlds Fair.
