 Reading these words from Chairman
 Fassett's speech at Minneapolis there can be no doubt of the fixed purpose of the republicans to push the federal election bill:
 Ut is the pride of the Republican party that it never yet committed an assault on the freedom of the ballot. The entire vocabulary of political lines have grown out of attempts to describe assaults of democracy upon free bal lot and q fair play in the exercise of the elective franchise. And the individuals words has been made intelligible by democratic practices. No question
 has ever been permanently settled, and never will be fully determined, until it is settled in the right, and until every citizen, white or black, East or West, North or South, can approach the bal lot box with absolute security and have his vote counted with absolute honesty, none of us can rest assured that our liberties are safo, the v0te of no man 10 safe. It Is not the negro alone who is disfranchised; it b every American. The contest before us assumes all its difficulties from tlie fact that VIC enter the presidential race handicapped by 1t; certain that out of an electoral col lege of A members, l56 votes are now already absolutely secured in advance to the democratic nominee, and those l58 votes come from the South, which is kept solid through . perpetual breach of the guarantees of the constitution of the United States"
 It is not worth while for Fassett to say that tho Republican party shas never yet committed an assault on the freedom of the ballot" Tho most in- famous assault ever committed on the ballot was by the Republican party in 1878, and tho history of tho party in tho South from 1887 to 1873 is replete with examples of the most glaring frauds eyer committed. It is conceded that elections are not always free and equal North or South. But will they be im- proved by placing the election machine " in the hands of the federal govern ment Shall we get free ballot and fair count by surrounding the polls with federal marshals and deputies, ready to to do the bidding of the admin istratiOn? If the people of the states cannot or win not see to 1t that the bal lot Is free and fair, 1t Is idle to expect relief from the government at Wash ingtOn. If the local communities which have the greatest interest in free bal lot will not assert their power to secure it, 1t is idle to look elsewhere. But the subject of ballot reform Is leading is. sue in all the states, and in nearly all of them great results have been accom- Dlished. 4

The Order Filied.

The Uni0n-Labor party in 1884 and again In 1888 demanded ballot reform, and here in Arkansas many of their organs asked for the Australian ballot law. When they got several of it's leading features in the law enacted by the late legislature, they suddenly dis covered that they were nearly akin to the infamous force bill." Since the passage Of that law they have been loud Tn their donunciations, but they have proposed no substitute for it.-Arkan- sas Democrat.

During the epidemic of la grippe here 1t took the lead and was very much better liked than other cough medicines." The grippe requires precisely the same treat lnent as . very severe cold, for which this remedy Is so efficient. It will promptly loosen cold and relieve the lungs, soon eHecting a permanent cure, while most other medicines in common use for colds only give temporary relief. 50 cent bot ties for sale by c. F.

WILD cAMELs IN AMERICA.
A Herd OF Moro Tann Sixty Roaming the
Arizona Desert.

Herd OF Moro Tinn Sixty Roaming the
Arizona Desert.
The camels that were brought to this
country before the war, to be used by
our army as draft animals in the de-
serts of the southwest, are still to be
seen-or rather their descendants
roaming the sands of Arizona, between
Yuma and Gutenberg on the north and
south and Wickcnburg and the Colorado
river on the east and west. The herd
has increased to more thnn sixty, al
though many of the animals have been
taken away by circus men and others
have been killed by prospectors. AS
'ships of the desert" they were n fail
urc, the pebbles and rocks of the foot
hills proving too hard on their feet,
which became SO sore that they were
finally turned loose to shift for them
selves. In those days there were no
white men to speak of in the region of
the Arizona desert, and the wanderers
had nothing to fear from Indians, who
supcr3titiously gave them 4 wide berth.
Not SO the prospectors when they came.
Their high spirited little mustangs were
SO often stampcdeI at the sight of the
long-ncclscd and unwicldly beasts that
Ghot at them whenever opportunity of
fcrcI. A prospector, writing of his first
experience with the cXpatriatcd camel,
says: 1--WE were coming through n vast
eHpansc of grease weed. almost rs high
rs my head, when suddenly the burro
stopped, raised his head, and gave
snort that could have brcn heard half 4
Elilc. / thought it mast have been In
dams, and, throwing 4 cartridge into
Tuy Winchester, took cover in the brush.
Pcering over the top of the wheels I
soon saw the camels coming with their
peculiar, swinging trot, showing only
their heads and humps above the brush.
That burro cvinced more life than had
ever seen him show before, and do not
think any horse in the country could
have outrun him. My pack broke in
Rhc first one hundred yards, and meat,
beans, coffee and tools were scattered
for I've miles. The mcl3 went on their
way, and it was several years until 1
saw them again, when one of them was
captured md brought into Phoenix,
where it finally died" lie thinks the
government ought to take some steps
to protect the camcls against malicious
injury by trnppers and prospectors.

FUTURE SPEED OF STEAMERS.
Will BE Regulated BY tho Material Out
OF Which Ships Aro Built.

Will BE Regulated BY tho Material Out
OF Which Ships Aro Built.
1t must be remembered that increased
speed is not simply question of more
power relatively to displacement, but
that each shape of vessel has 4 speed to
which it Is especially adapted, and that
any attempt to drive it beyond that
speed would lead to great cxpcndi-
turc of power with little useful result,
as the energy would be chiefly OK
pended in raising waves. It is found
by experiment that for ordinary spells
the resistance of the water to the pIJ-
sage of the ship through it is proper
toned to the sluaro of the spe3l, a1I,
as the work to be done Is equal to tho
resistance multiplied by the velocity, it
follows that the power needed t. D"oD2l
n ship varies rs the cub OF tla speed.
For higher speeds itv1rics nt n higher
power than the cube, which can only
be asccrtaincd by experiments with
actual ships or with carofully-prcparcd
models. 1t can also be shown that the
power required for propulsion varies
approximately Us the cube root of the
square OF tho displacement.
These points must be carefully re-
mcmbercd in considering the possible
ties of still further increased speeds,
and they show the necessity for increas-
ing the size along with the speed. If
anything like the present speed had
been attempted with vessels of the size
which were common on the Atlantic
thirty or forty years ago, the Scottish
Review says, the size of engines re-
quired, and the extra expenses involved,
would have reduced the earning power
of the ships very much, and possibly in
many cases made it disappear, but re-
Numbering the second of the above
mentioned points, namely, that the
power required varies as the cube root
of the displacement squared, it is EVIL
dent that the proportion of power to
tonnage win decrease considerably as
the sizes of the ships increase, and con-
sequently that it will be more eco
nomical to propcl large ship ut higher
speed than small one. Tho future
development of the steamship, how
ever, depends on conditions about
which it is impossible to say anything
very definite. The materials of con-
struction have been changed from
wood to iron, and from that again to
steel. We cannot foretell the possibil-
ities OF bronze, manganese, aluminium
and other metals.

GEN. WEAvER's SPEECH.

General Weavers great silver
speech appears in this issue. 1t was
delivered in Congress over thirteen
in favor OF the free coinage of silver,
which has never been answered IN or
out nf Congress. 1t stamps him as
being among tie foremost statesmen
OF America. This speech exhausted
the entIre argument for the repeal OF
the at 1873 and the restoration of
silver as money metal to the posi-
ton it occupied in this government
from it's foundation. No speech has
since been delivered which has added
q single argument in favor of free
coinage. His views expressed in this
speech on the banking system, the
funding of the debt, etc, are equally
sound. No man can read this speech
VINO is in search OF the truth, sound
pI inciples and and an honest and wise
statesman for President and hesitate
to vote for him in November. He
has been the consistent advocate If
every measure he now argues ever
s,nce he entered public life as a civil
i'm. His views of the financial policy
of the government have been the free
Coinage of silver and gold on the ratio
and equality existing prior to the
crime OF 1873. He has always OPP
posed placing the power OF issuing
money in the hands OF banks, and
thus placing the expansion and con-
traction OF the currency at the will Of
cnruorations and subjecting every in
dnstry OF the country to their avari.

has proven the correctness of his
views which have always been in bar
