ARKANSAS AND CHOLERA.

During the recent cholera scare in
this country, after its appearance in
New York, when there was a posi-
bility of the dread scourge devastat-
ing Arkansas, and there was consid-
cradle excitement in consequence
thereof, it transpired that we had 10
legally constituted State Board of
Health, to cope against any epidemic
or contagious disease The acting
Governor took the responsibility OF
appointing such board, iu the face
of the fact that no legislative provis-
ion had been made for its mainten-
ance
1t is the history of cholera that
cold weather does not kill out effect
ually the disease, but during winter
its microbe only lie dormant to again
assert itself when warm weather Ie-
turns. And since cholera has secu,-
ed lodgment in this country, there
is strong probability Of its re-appear-
ance next Spring, in which event it
will in all likelihood spread over the
country, and reach Arkansas.
1t is an imperative duty of our
next Legislature to fortify the State
against this threatened invasion.
This can only be done by its creating
a State Board of Health and appro-
priating sufficient sum to sustain it.
even if there was no DANCE" of any
pestilence this should be done, as a
precautionary measure for salty; Of
course if the hoard is not called upon
for duty, there would be no cost or
expense to the state.
The DEMOCRAT desires to stress the
importance of this matter upon all
our people, and especially to urge
prompt action, by the coming Legis-
lature.

Why Southern Farmers Should Vote
Against Harrison.

Because he has favored tariff legisla-
ton which mas had tendency to re-
duce the markets for agricultural pro-
ducts. Although there has been u
great abundance in this country and n
famine abroad, the value of the agri-
cultural products exported in 1891
was $642,751,344, while in 1881 it was
30,394, ,943, or nearly $l00,000,000
more. On the other hand, our eX-
ports Of manufactures have nearly
doubled in that time, so that protec-
tive tariff, such as Mr.. Harrison favors,
cuts down the profits of the farmers
and restricts their market Because
he favors the infamous force bill.
For these and many other reasons,
no Southern farmer can afford to vote
for Mr.. Harrison, or his "aider, mate
rialy, indirectly" Mr. Weaver.

MYSTERIOUS DEATH.

Charles NJ. Kile, son Of John Kile
of Franklin township, met with a
mysterious death last Thursday night.
He had been working for an uncle
and started, as he said for home,
driving a 4 year old colt hitched to a
road cart The next morning be-
tween and 10 o'clock, about two
miles from his uncle's, his cap and
whip were found, little farther on
the dead body was found, wrapped in
a robe, with driving gloves on, and
appearing as he sat in the cart about
two hundred yards beyond this was
the cart, with harness and bride
thrown across the shafts, the harness
but little broken. An examination
showed that the boys nose and neck
were broken, skull crushed in on the
right side, and deep cut on the left.
His clothing showed no signs of slrug-
gle. His cap was badly torn and had
the appearance of being penetrated by
shot. A piece Of the cap was missing
The horse was found Saturday in a
field near Elysburg. 1t is a mystery
how the horse could escape leaving
harness and bride, with the harness
but little broken, with nothing broken
to the cart, and the driver sitting in
the road wrapped in the robe. The
boy was little over sa years Of age,
member of the NJ. +. Church, had
endeavored to lead a Christian life,
and was not known to have an enemy.
Funeral services were held at Zion
Grove Church Sunday morning, con
Quoted by Rev. Souscr. The cornet
band of which he was a member at

wife of Bloomsburg, attended funeral
services.

1t was also resolved that the socie-

in the family, how many attend Sun.
day School, and what church they pre-
fer This action was taken at the re
quest Of pastors and laymen of several
of the churches, and is not denomina-
tional but interdenominational. The
information obtained is to be used by
the pastors to promote the religious
welfare of their congregations, and OF
families preferring their respective
churches. We trust that our citizens
will receive these canvassers kindly
when they call, and will cheerfully give
them the desired information.

The same Act of Assembly that
provides that the county shall
supply the stationery for the county
commissioners Office also provides the
same for the Prothonotary and Regis
ter and Recorder. For the past year
the commissioners have refused to
pay for any printed blanks for the two
latter Offices, though they have paid
for blanks used in their own office out
of county funds. The auditors have
been asked to interpret the law the
same for all the offices, so that if the
Prothonotary and Register must pay
for printed blanks, the commissioners
must do the same, out Of their own
pockets. The action of the auditors
is not vet known.
