oUININE AND PE-Ru-NA.
Two Great MsiariaI Remedies Compar
ed.

Nothing is more clearly demon
strated than that there are two dis
tinct forms Of malaria. which for the
want of better names, may be de
nominated acute and chronic forms.
The acute form is commonly known
as fever and ague, or chills and fever.
This form of the disease is too well
known in malarious districts to need
description, and is generally durable
by large doses of quinine, though
this is not so favorable remedy as
Pe-ru-na. The chronic form of ma
laria is, by no means, so well under
stood, as the symptoms are hardly
ever exactly alike in any
two cases, and it is rarely, if
ever, durable by taking quinine.
Each case presents slightly different
symptoms. the most common ones
being dull headache, sallow complex
ion, furred tongue, bad taste, poor
digestion. shiyering feelings, hot
flashes, cold feet and hands, con
slant tired feelings.
Quinine will not cure cases of
chronic malaria as above described.
Pe-ru-na is sure to cure, leaves the
system with no arrangements, and
produces no drug habit hard to leave
off which quinine will do
Pe-ru-na is for sale by most drug
stores, accompanied with full direc-
ton for use; but those who are us
ing it should send for the Family
Physician No /, treatise ON malaria.

The Truth TerseIy Told.

Memphis Commercial: Mr.. Jer-
ONE Fontaine, of the well known firm
of Hill, Fontaine, d Co, makes the
following strong statement in a re-
cent report issued by his house at
st. Louis:
1.-TWO years ago to-day a bale of
middling cotton was worth in St.
Louis $3.50. Today It's worth on-
" S35. A crop of 100000 bales at
values as then would have Melted the
South $500, 100000. The same crop
at today's values would only be
worth $2S0,000, 600, or say shrink
age of $3.50, 100000. All Americas
(almost exclusively greatest export
products has passed beyond consid
Grafton as a matter of interest alone
to the South, but is a national ca
lamity. and is causing serious
thought by dealers in all products
in commercial centers. For unless
there is a reinstatement of values,
the entire country will suffer and
only foreigners will reap the benefit
from the Southern planters misfor-
tune, and few protected industries
in the East; for we have had no like
decline in manufactured cotton
goods in this country. and the fol
lowing dispatch, copied from the As
ISOLATED Press this morning, speaks
for itself on this subject:
"FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. Il
Published returns from the mills
here for the past quarter show that
they are now enjoying the most pros
porous season ever known in cotton
manufacturing in Fall River. Thir-
ty-one corporations. representing
forty six mills, have paid dividends
of $53S, $50 on a capital Of slS,l23,
600. The total dividends paid for
the corresponding quarter of last
year amounted to 1888, $50.
THE above shows the manufac
turers (if this statement is correct
have increased their profits over 100
per cent, while the producer is not
receiving over two-thirds of the val
ue obtained for his cotton in 1890
and there has been no reduction in
the cost of production of cotton"
This tells the whole story. The
manufacturers of cotton goods are
reaping an abundant harvest from
the calamity of the cotton planter.
While the value of the raw material
goes rapidly down there is no cor
responding reduction in the price
of cotton goods. The Mckinleyites
are able to bolster up their claim
that the present tariff has accomp
lished wonders for the country by
making exhibit Of the enormous
profits in protected factories. These
profits are at the expense of the ag-
riculturists. The prosperity of the
country is not evenly distributed.
One section is starved that another
may surfeit, and one industry is
impoverished to enrich another

Keep Cool.

Little Rock Democrat: 1t is nat
uraI for men defeated in politics to
accuse their opponents of cheating
But when The Arkansas Farmer ar
raigns Democrats as 'rascals,
thugs" pirates" ballot box stuff
fers," etc, it should give the public
some evidence upon which to base
its fierce accusations. There ought
to be some evidence of this alleged
rascality. Let as have it. The
Democrat stands ready to print it
if it can be found So far as we
have been able to judge, the election
last Monday was the most orderly
and the freest from any suspicion OF
fraud of any held in the state for
twenty-five years. There was no
bulldozing and no bribery of voters.
There was no counting out because
that could easily be detected. If
the Republicans did not poll their
entire strength, the fault is with
themselves. So of the Populites, so
of the Democrats. 1t will be found
when the returns are all in that
they viii show considerable falling
off in the vote of all parties. The
aggregate vote will be less than
that of 1890 by probably 10000.
The Republicans viii suffer most in
this falling off, because they did not
make an aggressive campaign, be-
cause many of their voters could not
prepare their ballots under the new
law, because of growing indiffer-
ence to politics on the part of the
negroes, and lastly because great
many negro voters have left the
state since the last election. The
Populites were never factor in the
contest. The Democrats won be
cause they had majority of the
votes. The Democrat repeats
that the election was quiet,
orderly and fair. The ratings of
the Arkansas Farmer are simply ug
ly exhibitions of temper over the
failure Of cause which is represent
ed by small minority Of the people
of Arkansas.

without sufficient intelligence to Ell

plain to an election judge how he

that ignorance and not intelligence

Our New Election Law.

Pine Bluff Graphic: Not until
last Monday could the white citi-
zens and tax payers of the State OF
Arkansas fully appreciate the work
of the last State Legislature. Had
that body done nothing else than
pass the present election law, the
full operations and effect of which
were never witnessed until last Mon
day, the State would have been am
ply compensated for all cost and ex-
pense incident to that session. 1t
is seldom that any one act of legis-
lation gives so much cause for graf
ulation to the best elements of so
ciety and the tax paying classes as
the election law passed by the last
State General Assembly. 1t is a
long step forward in ballot reform,
and at one fell swoop it sweeps
away as chat all ward heelers, bull
dozers and corruptionists from the
polls. 1t puts a premium on intel
ligence and discounts ignorance, and
guarantees the free exercise of the
elective franchise to every voter
witout interference or intimidation.
Voting places, which under the OPP
erations of the old law were the fire.
quent scenes of strife, bulldozing
and intimidation, are now as quiet
and orderly as church door on a
holy Sabbath. The transformation
has almost been too sudden to awake
to full realization Of the beneficial
results of the new law, and as it be-
comes better known and understood
it will be more deeply entrenced in
the hearts of all intelligent classes
of people, 1t Is long needed re-
form in the election system of the
State, and will result in better gov
eminent for every city, township
and county in Arkansas.

GENERALS A. III. Garland and
Robert Howard came all the way
from Washington City to Little
Rock to vote and remained at the
polls until they got chance to cast
their ballots. A striking evidence
of the interest they felt in the con
test on hand, yet here in Arkansas
we have a few democrats living
within few hours ride Of the polls
who refused to wait their turn and
thereby lost their votes. To such
we commend the loyalty and devo-
ton Of Genls. Garland and Howard.

Little Rock Gazette, 1sshL5
The Secretary Of State up to late
last evening had received official re-
turns from fifty eight out of the sew
enty-five counties Of the State.
The vote for governor and on the
amendment in these counties is as
follows Fishback, 69,635; Whipple
22,l43. Carnaban, 22,444: Nelson,
], 002; for amendment So, 253 against

The total vote cast in these eoun-
ties is lit, 224, and a majority of
this vote would be 5S,613. The
amendment only received 6,253
votes for it, and as it is probable
that the proportion viii not be in
creased in the remaining counties,
the amendment is probably lost.
At least 1000 Of the 22,444 votes
cast for Carnahan were by negroes,
who voted for him under belief, ere

had withdrawn. These counties
give Fishback clear majority over
his three opponents of 22,o46. while
he leads Whipple 45,492.

HON. " IA VI. springer, AMdAEAnhA
Of the ways and means committee Of
the house Of representatives, was
the principal speaker at the Demo
cratic Day" Of the Illinois State
Grange Chatauqua at New Lennox
Thursday Of last week. He direct
cd his arguments principally to re-
plying to Senator columns address
Of the day before, and commenting
upon President Harrison's letter OF
acceptance. President Harrison,
said Mr. Springer, attached great
importance to the report Of the sen
ate committee on the price of pro
tected products and of such articles
as enter into the living Of the PEG
pie Of simple means, and stated that
the report upon this subject was
signed by all the members of the
committee, thus giving the impress
sion that the democratic members OF
the committee on finance concurred
in the report to which he referred.
Now, the fact is, the report towhieh
the president referred is strictly
partizan and concurred in by the
republican members only. Carlisle
speaking for the minority, express
" dissented from the conclusions
of the report, and said he would
show that the prices of commodities
in the United States were enormous
ly increased by the passage Of the
Mckinley act, and the cost Of living
increased during the period covered
by investigation more than $685.
600, 600 and over sIs5,000,000 of in
crease occurred after the passage OF
the Mckinley act He further said
he would show that the rate of wag-
es in fifteen substantially unpro-
tected industries selected by a com
mittee had increased and rates OF
wages in fifteen protected industries
also selected by a committee, had
fallen and that the fall was greater
after the passage Of the Mckinley
bin than during the whole period
preceding its passage. President
Harrison also referred with great
satisfaction to the recent report OF
the commissioner Of labor of New
York. There is nothing remarkable
about that report that should give
it such prominence. In the year
1871 there was a partial failure OF
crops in Europe, while in this coun-
try there was an unprecedentedly
heavy yield of all it produces and
especially Of those that were short
in Europe. Mr.. Springer read from
the report Of 1892 Of the republican
chairman OF the board OF labor sta
tistics in support of his position,
then took up the subjects of tin
plates, pearl buttons, sugar, wooden
goods, and proceeded to give and ex-
pose the fallacies of the protective
tariff system as applied to those ar
ticles. "One thing is gratifying, "
said he in conclusion, in reference
to the important documents recently
made public, ~Harrison's letter,
Blaine's letter and columns speech
none OF these high authorities Of the
republican party have stated that
any foreigner pays the tariff"
