 For the first time in twelve years the Democrats have secured complete control of the city of Hartford, Conn, electing the entire city ticket last week. Thus do the people express their disapproval of minor ity rule. Hot Springs Graphic.
The Russellville Democrat., 1892-04-21

The present election law, if we judge from the dispatches from all the cities and towns over the state, gives general satis- faction and the system works smoothly. The negroes refused in some localities to allow the judges of election to make out their tickets, and not being able to do it themselves, did not vote. -Lonoke Demo crat.

 Eureka Springs Democrat.
The Russellville Democrat., 1892-04-21

The nomination of Fishback by the Dem ocratic state convention will result in the election of Republican governor. More than 10, 900 Democrats will not vote for Fishback. The Peoples party will place candidate in the field who will take off the same number, and the Republican candi- date will be elected. In the interest of peace and harmony the state convention should select some eminent and able Dem ocrat with a stainless record, and his cleo ton would be certain. Not only does the nomination of Fishback bring defeat, but it will SOW the seeds of bitterness which will inevitably disrupt and destroy the party Saline Courier.

over Sumner county, and will say that
it is, perhaps, as good a county as there
is in the state for agricultural pursuits.
But nothing that natures late in the
season seems to do well.
Wheat is very sure crop, but corn
is very uncertain. Garden vegetables,
of the early varities, do well, and early
fruits do reasonably well. If we could
get the rains here that you usually get
in Missouri, we certainly could boast
of living in the garden spot of the
union. One can do well here, however,
raising wheat as a specially; it Yields
well, and is of fine quality, and the ex-
pense of seeding and reaping is very
much reduced below what it is in La

and am very favorably impressed with
that country, and would not hesitate to
locate in the territory at once, but for

A Robbers Den i'm Paris.


A most extraordinary discovery has
just been made by the police on the
Boulevard OrnanO. Two policemen
on night duty followed several sus-
picious looking individuals who were
carrying large parcels, and were as
tonished to see them disappear, as if
by magic, INTO the glacls of the fortiti-
cations. They went up to the spot
and saw ray of light coming through
crack and heard sounds of laughter.
One of them went off at once for
reinforcements, and as soon as other
officers had arrived they raised a heavy
trap door and went down staircase
cut into the earth into large chamber,
thickly carpeted, where five men and
three women were carousing. The
gay company were captured and taken
before the commissary of police, who
soon learned that they were profession
al thieves and they had lived quietly
for six months in the cave which they
had dug in the fortification. An i'm
mense quantity of stolen property was
found.

turned his batteries (though harmless

to keep an eye on this man, Editor

Wooden Ships Still in Favor.

The arrival of two well built clipper
ships in New York, after race from

fact that wooden ships are no longer
in disfaror on long voyages, but have
in some instances displaced their iron
rivals. This is an encouraging out
look for the United States, because in

First Step Toward Better Roads.

New York Post.
The first step toward securing better
roads IN this country is the develop
ment of public sentiment to realiza-
ton of their present shocking con-
dition. More progress has been made
in this direction during 1921 than in
any previous year. The road question
has been the theme of constant and
thorough discussion by the newspap pers
in every part of the country. The
winter season aggravates the troubles
caused by bad roads, and more is said
about them now than in any previous
winter. A dispatch from Burlington,

at would take round million dol
lars to even up the losses in trade to
the merchants, shippers and farmers
in Iowa on account of the fearful mud
blockade which exists not only in
Iowa, but all over the Mississippi val.
lev. For two weeks country roads
in Iowa, Missouri and Illinois have
been hub-deep in mud, and the farm
ing communities have been virtually
padlocked on the farm. AS a result
merchants depending on country trade
have suffered immense financial loss
especially in holiday trade, while the
farmers and shippers have lost by
inability to market their products. L
is feared many failures among countr,
merchants may result"
The indianapolis Journal says tina
the conditions in Indiana during tn,
