Fell Dead.

These words are very familiar to our readers, as not a day passes without the report of the sudden death of some promi nent citizen. The explanation Is "Heart Disease" Therefore beware if you have any of the following symptoms: Short Breath, Pain in Side, Smothering Spells, Swollen Ankles, Asthmatic Breathing, Weak and Hungry Spells, Tenderness in Shoulder or Arm, Fluttering of Heart or Irregular Pulse. These symptoms mean heart disease. The most reliable remedy is Dr. Miles New Heart Cure, which has saved thousands of lives.

Mckiniey's Drawback.
St, LOuls HopubHc.
 The arguments in favor of the Me- Kinley bill have now been reduced to

cts Aouic hNcPubhC
 The arguments in favor of the Me- kinley bill have now been reduced to two:
 I. A Mckinley tariff is not tax.
 2. The foreigner pays the tax,
 Now the Mckinley bill is better authority on itself than are it's advO- cates, and in the Mckinley bill itself we find the following as definitions:
 SEC. 23. That where imported ma terials on which duties have been paid are used in the manufacture of articles manufactured or produced in the United States there shall be allowed on the exportation of such articles a drawback equal in amount to the du- ties paid on such articles, less 1 per cent.
 Now this is the Mckinley bill itself, and it declares:
 1. The tariff is tax.
 2. The foreigner does not pay the tax, but it is paid by the American buyer.
 Mir. Armour of Chicago buys tin plate in Wales or from broker in New York. He uses it for canning beef. He ex- ports these canned goods abroad, and MT. Mckinley directs that 09 per cent of the tax paid on the tin thus sent abroad shall be refunded to MT. Ar mOur.
 Mir. Niedringhaus of St. Louis buys borax abroad. He uses it in in making granite ironware. If he exports this granite ironware Mir. Mckinley directs that 99 per cent of the tax paid by Niedringhaus on all borax used in in making it shall be refunded to him. Likewise S9 per cent of the tax OH any w elsh tin used ill making the lid to the "graniteware" coffee pot if the coffee pot be exported.
 Mir. Mckinley never refunds his taxes to anybody except manufacturers and he refunds to them only when they sell to foreigners. But he justifies this by declaring that in order to compete for foreign trade they must have ,ln- taxed raw material. This is perfectly true. Foreigners will not refund to our manufacturers the Mckinley taxes paid by them. Therefore Mckinley in his own bill directs that this shall be done by our treasury. If the tariff were no tax; or if the foreigner had paid it in the first place without ad- ding it to his price, or if he could be induced to pay it at any time later on, MT. Mckinley would either not refund these taxes at all, or else we suppose he would refund them to foreigners who 1t IS now said pay the tax. It will be noticed that there is no drawback" of Mckinley taxes on goods sold to Americans. The bill argues that while foreigners who can buy in open market will not pay Nc Kinley prices to our manufacturers, who must therefore have Mckinley taxes refunded to them whenever they propose selling to foreigners, Ameri- cans are bound to pay Mckinley prices and there is consequently no necessity for q drawback in their case.

Aone-sIded Arrangement.

feIryFile NeWb.
 The republicans of this county have a straight ticket headed by James A. Vance for county judge and J. w. Ragsdale for representative. The con- vention nominated Vance, and others, and endorsed the remainder of the Peoples party ticket with the.under- standing that they were to be recog- nized and supported by the People par ty. On Monday they paid the fees for tickets and had the names of c. M. Johnson for judge and O. D. South worth for surveyor certified up on the Peoples party ticket. It appears they were put on by the committees of the Peoples party, who say the republicans must support it, as they will not di- vide or give up man on the Party s people side. The republicans must vote with them, but not hold office. They claim the negro soul and body.

Review of the Political Situation by sr
 Impartial Correspondent.

A Review of the Political Situation by an
 Impartial Correspondent
 A Little Rock correspondent to the St. Louis Republic has this to say of of the political situation:
 The most interesting campaign since the days of reconstruction is now on hand in Arkansas, and the temperature of the political pot is rapidly reaching the boiling point.
 Especial interest ceDters on this cam paign for the reason that for the first time the Third tor Peoples party has a complete and distinct state ticket in the held. Republicans since 1886, have had no state ticket in the field, and this year they have a separate and complete ticket with this exception, that they indorse Judge w. F. Hill, the populists' candidate for associate justice of the supreme court.
 THE THREE HEADS.
 The three heads of these state tickets, Colonel Wm. NJ. Fishback, Prof. J. B. Carnahan and Colonel Wm. G. Whipple are making a joint canvass of the state, thousands of people greeting them ey- anywhere they go.
 Up to this time Whipple has met the other candidates at but seven places. Out of Colonel Whipple's neglect or in : disposition to meet his opponents at ev- cry point designated by the democratic state central committee grew the Hail letter, the greatest blunder of his cam paign, and one which has opened the eyes of the country to the true inward ness of the political situation. 1t IS es- timated that at the September and No vember elections the state will poll 2l0, 900 votes. Of these the popullsts only claim that they will get 20 900, while the republicans claim but SO.O0O. Coionei Fishback estimates from carefui study of the situation. after thorougn canvass of large portion of the state that the populists will not poll more than l5 ,O0O votes. and the republicans not more than 60,00O.

ABOUT THE ESTIMATE.

100 GOO votes, thus c0ncedlng the Sldle to the democrats by 10000, a safe ma jority. According to Colonel Fishback' s estimate the combined vote of the op- position will not exceed 75,0OO, giving the democrats clean majority 0f 35,- GOO. The most conservative estimates concede the state to the democrats by at least 9 ,O00.
 The populist candidate for governor Prof. J. r. Carnahan, is an old schooi teacher, and of late years has been a half farmer and half manufacturer on a small scale in Washington county, in the northwestern part of the state. He is au ex-Confederate soldier. and Is conceded to be honest, though .erring. in his opinions. He dresses in ordi- nary working garb, and is very untidy in his appearance, though within the past week he has improved his per sonal appearance, owing to adverse criticism of the press of the state, 1t IS supposed He is not an orator, though he is a fair speaker, and IS easily aroused to anger. The incident of the Hall letter. which has now became an important document in the history or this campaign, is an especially sore point with him. In this letter Colonel Whipple states that Carnahan is giving aid to the republicans materially in- directly" He charged Whipple and Fishback with being joint copspirators and authors of the letter, but Hall, the recipient, admits that the letter was re- ceived by him at Salem, Ark, and feel ing elated at receiving letter from a gubernatorial candidate made haste to show it to his fellsw-townsmen, W whence it soon became the property of the general public through the press.

THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE.
 Col. Fishback is received with elab- crate preparation and ceremony and great enthusiasm wherever he goes, while his opponents are treated with si- lent disdain.
 It is a campaign of education. Col onel Fishback is talking chiefly on na- tional questions. and ably, so that the masses can understand him. Tariff re- form is being taught the people as never before, and Cleveland and Stevenson will receive the largest majority in No vember gwen presidential ticket in twelve years.
 The populists are losing strength ev- cry day, and democratic organization is growing stronger and more energetic and aggressive daily. Counties that were conceded to the populists at the beginning of the campaign are now safe for the democracy.
 The republicans are fusing with the populists on county tickets in large number of counties, while in two coun- ties, Phillips and Jefferson, compro- mise democaatic and republican tickets are ill the field. These are strong counties and the compromise is a method of long standing.

 The republicans have not placed a congressional ticket in the field, but will support the populist candidates.
 The democratic nominations for con- gressmen have been made in four dis tricts, the renOmination of Hon. w. l.. Terry in the fourth district, however, is conceded, as he has no opposition. The candidates are as follows: First district, F. D. Mccullough, who will succeed Cate; Second district, c. R Breckenridge, who will succeed him. self; Sixth district, Gen. Robert Neill. The Sixth is the new district created under the last reapportionment, and is safely democratic.
 The populists have nominated w. B. W. Heartsill to oppose Breckinridge in the Secondidistrict, J. o. A. Bush to op- pose McRae in the Third, J. w. Byran to oppose the democratic nominee in man by the name of Martin of IDdepen- dence county to oppose Neill in the Sixth.
 The democratic congressional con- vention for the nomination of 8 con- gressman to succeed Peel in the Fifth will be held at Eureka Springs August, 25.
 Great interest is centered in this dis trict, as very strong and uncertain battle is being waged here by Peel and Dinsmore, with Jones holding the bal ance of power. Dinsmore has the most instructed votes up to date, and with his instructions for second choice is likely to receive the nomination. He was Cleveland's minister to Corea, is a fine campaigner, a brilliant orator and is very popular, not only in his own district, but throughout the state. having been prominently mentioned for governor in the recent gubernato- rial fight. Peel is strong man, how ever, and knows nearly every one of

Tho outcome Of tho trial OF Mrs. Christine
