and loud applause.
Montana Nebraska, Nevada. Ohio and Ore
gon each IN turn changed TO Stevenson.
When the chairman of fhe Missouri deega-
ton obtained the floor the widest excitement
ensUed as he changed the thirty-four votes OF
that state for Stevenson.
Georgia changing her twenty-six votes to
Stevenson caused fresh howl OF excitement
from the convention, which. at this moment
scarcely better than q mob. Tennss-ee
hastily followed IN the wake OF the other states
and cast her twenty four votes solid for Steven
son. Kentucky asked II her vote had been re-
corded for Stevenson, and upon the chairman
OF the convention answering in the negative
that deleRation recorded her twenty-six votes
for the favorite son of Illinois.
Texas came to the front i'm ediately there
after with thirty votes solid for Stevenson
The confusion became so great for awhile
that the chair refused to listen 10 or recognize
any of the delegates. At this point tall man
with very black beard shouted louder than
all the rest and attracted the attention of the
chairman.
The Chairmsn-"Whst is the name of the
gentleman
The speaker said his name was "Cole Of
Ohio"
Mr.. Cole Of Ohio-"I move that the rules be
suspended and that Gen. Adlai E. Stevenson
be nominated by aoclamation."
Loud appliance greeted this motion and the
delegates all over the hall seemed impatient
that the question be put. In the midst of the
excitement Mr.. Hensel of Pennsylvania, who
was standing on the platform in front of the
presiding officer, seco nded the motion.

Des Arc News.

The rain has at last ceased falling,
and, we are proud to say, that our town
was not damaged much.
Mr. f. Myers and wife of Piedmont,
accompanied by her brother, spent
Sunday with their parents here.
T. p. Fitz has his mill up and ready
for business. They hauled several
loads of lumber to town Friday.
Chas. Stevenson and wife of Brunot
spent Sunday in Des Arc visiting.
4 very sad accident occurred to Mr..
Jas. Green at his mill near Brunot on
Friday. May 18th. He was helping his
son Charley load his wagon with lum-
Der to haul to the railroad. There
were some boards lying around with
large nails in them, and Mr.. Green,
with a heavy load on his shoulder,
stepped on one of the nails, running it
through his foot He went directly to
the house. stating to his wife that he
hurt his foot, but did not think it would
trouble him but few days. He treat
ed the wound himself until the follow
ing Thursday, when the pain began to
move upward, effecting his head. At
ter reading in a medical book and
studying about his case he concluded
that he was threatened with lock-iaw,
as he had had some experience with it
at the hospitals in the army. They
went for Drs. Farr and Petit, who did
all that medical aid could afford, but,
in spite Of all their efforts, he died with
the lOck-jaw Friday night, May goth,
and was brought to Des Arc Sunday for
burial. Mr.. Green has been in this
part of the State for about twenty years.
He was well known to all our people as
one of the best business and straight
forward men among us. He will be
greatly missed IN the community in
which he lived. He carried on d large
saw mill trade, and was always ready
to lend a helping hand to any of his
fellOwmen. He will be missed most OF
all by his dear wife and seven father
less children, one an infant six weeks
old, who survive him, for, indeed, he
was one Of the truest husbands and
fathers | ever knew. His thoughts
seemed to always to be directed to his
family, planning some way for their
future happiness. May God help them
in this sad hour Of affection, and that
this may be link to bind them closer
to heaven is the prayer of ISAAC.

large number of people standing on
the track south of the break had to run
out Of the way of the water, which, in
five minutes. was running over where
they stood more than foot deep.

REPUBLICAN MULlsHNEss.

FAnaticism OF the Repudisted MeKin-
ley1tes.
Some of the prominent leaders OF the
republican party assert that their or
ganization does not propose to swerve
a hairs breadth from the policy it has
adopted respecting McKinleyism, but
that it is going to wait to take advan-
tage of the inevitable reaction which
must set in. There is a fine flavor OF
consistency in this position; but it ex-
hibits in striking manner the want of
political sagacity on the part of those
who take it. There are some things
toward which reaction can never set
in. We are not aware that when the
slaves were freed there was a reaction
in favor of slavery. In fact. it has
been our belief that the anti-slavery
feeling has all the time increased in
intensity, and that it would have been
more and more impossible, as time
went on, for public opinion to have re-
acted against this one great meritor-
ious proceeding on the part of the
then representatives of the republican
party.
We think the same remark would
hold true concerning McKinleyism. If
W thin the next tho years a radical
change is made in our tariff system,
and has given to it the opportunity for
practical realization, the effect upon
the country will be to ask for more
changes. Instead of crying out for =
restoration of McKinleyism that policy
will be held in greater detestation than
ever before. We say this with all con-
fidence, for the reason that experience
here and elsewhere fully justifies the
statement The tariff of 1916, our al
legged free-trade tariff, was much more
popular in 1850 and the years following
than it was at the time it was enacted
When Sir Robert Peel succeeded in
abolishipg the corn tax and other pro-
tective taxes in England, he had in his
support but an exceedingly meager ma
jority of the representatives in parlia-
ment, and it is questionable whether q
general vote in the country would have
accorded TO him a popular majority.
But after a short experience of the
tremendous benefits that resulted from
freer trade exchange. the English
manufacturers and merchants and the
wage earners of all kinds instantly
realized that the change proposed had
been of great advantage. and that to
go back to the old order of things
would lead to inevita BILE loss.
Considering that more than half of
what was the republican party is OPEN
1y or secretly dissatisfied with ,McK1n-
leyism, and that the rebuke of 1890 has
been reafirmed in 1892, it would be
good party policy for the republican
leaders to endeavor, by abandoning
false positions, to put themselves in
condition to appeal successfully to
the voters of this country. If, how
ever, they wish to remain bourbons,
to face the sunset. and permit others
to gain the advantage arising from
new opportunities, that is their look
out. So far as the democratic leaders
are concerned, they have no cause for
regret at finding their political rivals
SO completely blinded by prejudice

THE PLAN OF REFORM.
Will Decrease Duties to ]
crease Revenues.

Democrats VIII Decrease Duties to In
crease Revenues.
The attempt is made in some quar-
tiers to create the impression that diff
ferences of opinion have already arisen
between Mr.. Cleveland and his party
over the plan of tariff reform. No such
differences exist. All democrats are
now agreed that general reform bill
should be introduced as soon as posi-
BILE after the ssembling of the con-
gress elect and urged to passage at
once. The plan of separate reform
bills has served its purpose. When the
democrats control both houses there is
no further occasion for separate bills
There is no question. either, between
Mr.. Cleveland and his party rs to per-
centagcs. All are agreed that q demo-
cratic tariff must yield the largest pos
sible revenue with the least possible
restriction. As the Reed congress in
creased duties to lower the revenue. so
democrats will decrease duties to in
crease the revenue.
While some democrats and most ed
ucated people who have no special in
terest in restrictive taxation believe
in the theory of free trade, there are
some democrats who believe in q high
err tariff for the present than others
are willing to admit as justifiable. But
there will be no division on this ac-
count. The demand of the financial
as of the political situation Is for the
abolition of prohibitive and restrictive
duties; for revision which will re-
duce all duties TO the revenue basis.
