VOLUME EIGHTEEN.

Our lssne Of last week completeu the seventeenth year of the existence of the DEMOCRAT, and today we start upon volume eighteen. The changes which it has recorded, the joys which it has chro nicled, the sorrows with which 1t has sympathized, would make many interesting pages Of Pope county history. These events we shall not undertake to recount. old citizens have gone to the land whose government is eternal and unchange able; business firms have disappear ed from the commercial world, all these have been succeeded by younger and a different generation. These changes faithfully recorded in the DEMOCRAT these seventeen years past, have been accompanied by such a degree of prosperity for our people and our county until today 1t can be truthfully said that old Pope IS the peer of the foremost counties in Northwest Arkansas. Since the DEMOCRAT was established our rail road facilities have been improved tenfold, our school has increased in numbers and efficiency, our church es have prospered, several thriving towns with numerous business inter ests have sprung into existence, and today are living testimonials Of en-
 rgy and enterprise.
 To much of this advancement, to
 any of these results, the DEMOCRAT has humbly tired to contribute it's mite. If those eff orts have been substantial aid in the development of the county and the advancement of its interests, we are content. This we have conceived to be our first du- ty and to it we have bent our best enerqies-we have done the best we could as we understood it-who can do moref
 And then, too, we rejoice in the fact that we have seen the divisions and strife that existed all disappear until today democracy IS this county is stronger than ever before in it's history. Upon this condition we congratulate the party leaders for the moderation and good common sense which has brought it about.
 As for the DEMOCRAT itself, may may we be pardoned if we say it has endeayored to keep step with the advancement of the grand old county in which it is published2 Be- ginning seventeen years ago with an old fashioned hand press and small assortment of type, constant addi- tions have been made to the plant until now there are but few offices in country towns with an outfit equal to that which the DEMOCRAT contains. This result has been reached through the generous patronage of Pope county's liberal citizens. To them, and each of them, We return our sim cere thanks. The only promise we have for the future is that we shall earnestly endee ~sor to merit conti uanc sSe oI your patronage and frienc shIp, knowing that lasting prosperi
 perches upon the banner of him WI
 deserves it.

LAND OFFICE REMOVAL.
Revised Statutes Give the Pres
 ident Power to Change.

Discussing the Dardaneile land ot fee removal proposition last week the DEMOCRAT fell into the error of stating that an act of congress would be required to remove the office from Dardanelle.
 This mistake was pointed out by Hon. Will A. F. May, the very court eous and capable Register of the of flee at Dardanelle who kindly fur nishes us other interesting informa tion in this connection.
 His letter is as follows:
 UNITED STATES LAND OFFIoE,l
 Dardanelle, Jan. 2S, 1892. Editor DEMOCRAT:
 Alter examining the Revised Stat utes of the United States l find that the President has the power to change the location of the land offices in the several land districts established by law, and to re locate the same from time to time at such point Tn the dis trict as he deems expedient. l am informed that the act of congress by which the office was moved to this place, was necessary for the reason that a new office was created.
 I received letter from the Com missioner of the General Land Office dated January 8, 1892, asking our views in regard to the changing Of the location to Van Buren, he at the time stating that petitions had been filed to that effect. 1 prepared a plat showing the present locations of the county lines, and the amount of va cant government land remaining in each on the first day of July 1861, the date we made our annual report to his office.
 In Crawford County we had 4S,020 acres, in Franklin Al, 200, Tn Sebas tian 29,000, in Logan 56, TOO, in John son 112, 800, in Pope 15l, ,220, in Yell 179, 9,460, in the half of Perry that is in this District 137, ,4S0, In Saline a part of which is in this district we have 6o,000, in Garland 70,520, in Montgomery 59,42l, Conway IA 800, in Scott 309, ,060. North of the Ark ansas River we have 353, 240 acres of vacant government land, the most of which is nearer to Dardanelle than it IS to Van Buren. South of the river we have 9l9, Al acres of vacant gov ernment land the most of winch is nearer to Dardanelle than to Van Buren. Dividing the district by a line running north and south down tue east line of Franklin through the center of Logan and down the east line of Scott, we have Tn the west half 457, l30 acres of vacant govern ment land while in the east half we have Sl5, ,55l acres. By examining a State map It is at once apparent to any one that the office is now situat ed in the very heart of the vacant government land, and is much more accessible to the people wanting homes on government land, here at Dardanelle, than it could possibly be at Van Buren. The Commissioner am sure will allow the people of the district, to express their wishes ,o suo ln"Sou'' os petition, if no ueein' .s ~ ,''' ..ecessary, after ex n "'" -.plat sent to hls office iaa' Monda
 With our. K. connection and our K river spand by pontoon bridge, ," Dardanellian be reached from any
 part of tn district with as much r. ease, as dian Buren. 1 do not be n heve thahe office will be moved from Its bsent location, for many y years. main as ever,

The marked benefit which people In run down or weakened state of health derive from Hoods sarsaparilla, conclusively proves the claim that this medicine "makes the weak strong.p It does not act like q stimulant, impartIng fictitious strength from which there must follow a reaction of greater weakness than before, but in the most natural way Hoods Sarsaparilla overcomes that tired feel ing, creates an appetite, puriiies the blood, and, in short, gives great bodily, nerve, mental and digestive strength

A New York disnatch sal

A New York dispatch says Mir. Cleveland will soon publish an open letter declining to stand for the dem ocratic nomination for tue presidency because Of the indifference manifest ed toward him by his party leaders. The campaign lar has started early. Roger c. Mills has resigned the chairmanship of the interstate and foreign commerce committee to which he was appointed by Speaker Crisp. He says in hls letter of de- t,lination that he IS willing to serve n the ranks but not as le .der. His fi-iends fear he has made mistake.
 The Florida contested election ca SC has been decided in favor of Senator Call by the unanimous vote oi the committee on privileges and elections. Call received a majority of the whole number of votes in the legi slature, but a majority of each hon, SC was not present when the vote was taken.
 - The authenticity of Powell Clay ton'sl Washington interview m which he Yirtuallv admitted the defeat of the Republicans in the next nationa! election, has not up to this hour been or the statements denied. If he s,aid all the things imputed to him ht was a very peculiar and un usual [ hing for him to do. There's a bug un der the chip somewhere.
 Tn e silver situation IS about ike this: Cleveland has declared agalnst free and unlimited coinage. Hill and Springer agree that no free legislation should be at tempted by this congress. Mills thinks tl he free coinage of silver would no in the slightest manner re- ieye the distress of the country.
