StIli They Come to Fishback.

The Malvern Meteor says: Hon. W. Nj. Fishback is receiving q large endorsement for governor by a multi tude of democratic papers throughout the state. He certainly deserves well for his brilliant services in the demo- cratic ranks and would make an able, patriotic governor. It is doubtful whether the democracy of the state can find his equal m it's ranks"
 With five others within this week, this makes sixty-one papers that have to date declared for Fishback. It be- gins to look as if Fishback's virtues are becoming as well known in all the state as they have long been known in Sebastian county where he has lived for thirty-three years.

ABOUT ninety per ceht oA u"0 "' pers of Arkansas favor the nomina' tion and election of Fishback for gov ernor. It is our candid opinion that about the same proportion of voters are of the same mind.

We are for the inter ests of Arkansas above all things, and feel we could adopt no better plan for furthering those interests than Dy ao- vocati1g the election of W.

TIE idea that democrat who has been and is working in the harness, spending his time, money and talents for the success of the Democratic party for years, should be called upon to ex- plain his actions, based upon convic- tions of thirty years ago, seems ridicu- lous. The airing of Fishback war record will rebound to his good. It smacks of persecution, if you please and besides the people are sick of such nonsense.
