The Tribune, of Little Rock, is s.red hot" newspaper, and it's vicssitudys are many. It has recently published some very severe strictuies on the city counsl of that city, and accused one of its mem bers-Aldevman Faucett-of being one of the mob which had been operating in North Little Rock. The police judge, too we believe. was written up. At any rate the alderman licked the editor under cover of revolver in the hands of his brother the police judge fined the alderman only sZ5, and intimated that the editor ought to have been thoroughly done up, and the city council passed resolution to prohibit the sale of the paper in Little Rock. 1t occurs to us that the conn cil has undertaken rather a large-sized job. snG commenced it at the wrong end |. There is always right and wrong way of doing things. Unfortunately the Little Rock conncil usually takes the wrong way.

They sang in a charming man. mer, winning the plaudits of the entire au- dience, who pronounced them the finest breed of shorthorns in thercounty. A few of them are of a rich brown color, but the majority of them are spotted brown and white. Several Of the heifers were me. bodied, tight limbed animals, and promise to prove good propetty.

Republican Gan.

Somehow or other, and the reason
for it party man can not understand
these Republicans who are so over
whelmingly defeated at the polls have
got into their heads that they own The
offices they have so long held and tha
it is cruel and inhuman to disturb
them in what they seem to think theil
vested rights. If one of them who
fought Cleveland and Democracy and
put up his money to defeat the Demo-
cratic party, accidentally loses his
place, he whines around like a sick
kitten, and tries to make everyone be-
lieve that he is shamefully treated and
maliciously prosecuted man. He
even has the cheek to persiStently
seek, and frequently obtains ii, Demo-
cratic influence to reinstate him in
office. The "grand old Republican
party is no longer party OF brave
men who fight to the finish and stand
the hazard of the die. They are will
ing to surrender principles, but never
the offices.

The Queen Il Crescent Route has
sent out to the connecting railroad
lines in the South a circular suggest.
ing that since the Worlds Fair will
bring great number of foreigners to
this country, it will be most oppor-
tune time to advertise the resources of
the South. They suggest that all
lines interested join with them in
making ticket with such low rate
as will induce travellers to visit the
South. They say:
"a ticket of this character will do
more to encourage travel to the South
and build up the towns, and therefore
future business for our lines, than
anything we can adopt. Should the
other lines agree to this proposition,
we ask your support for this measure .

FARLEY on THE DISPENSARY

General Hugh l.. Farley has written q
two column communication to the Cotton
Plant OF the dispcnsary question and 1t is
the best thing we have ever seen on the
subject. We would be glad to give the
entire piece TO our readers but have not
the space.
The most important question to the pco-
pie is that OF the dispcnsary and upon this
question we give what Mr.. Farley says.
lie asks this question and then proceeds to
answer it
Should the State, in the cN"rc!sc of its
right To regulate and cCnrOl the liquor
traffic, either as Il police or prohibition
measure, make it Il source of revenue or a
mems IF II taxation on its people,?
The answer to the question is not so
easy. The ideal and fundamental princi
pie Of taxation in this country is that rall
taxation should bc uniform" This princi-
pie is violated in every special tax or tariff
which has eventually to he paid by con-
SumcrS and falls unrQually upol the tay
payers. 1t has long been one Of the chief
complaints Of the Democracy nyain>t Re.
pnhlicans when they violated il for protrc.
ton sake, or even in a tariff for revenue,
it is not uniform In all such iaNrs tie
poor are made TO pay as much as the rich
man. III the dispcnsary should realize a&
Hrca' profit as It's most ardent advocates
contend, then the consumers. who are
manly tie poorer people, would to a Ger
tam extent hc paying the taNrS "f the rich
ny the reduction of taxes on their property.
THIS would Gc particularly true in this
State, because the ConSrr>n n,lvrS will not
TO any large extent patronzc the di&pvus,
IieS, Witch Will have To hc Supported lv
lhc Kctormcrs who represent more largely
1hc poorer people. Railroads, banks,
factories and other corporations with
lhcir large capital drink no runnr,
ana every such reduction Of Tux.
ntl"n' hS profits made ON liquor ON, of
me masses, would reduce their taxes, ns
wen as the taXCsnf those who do not drink.
Is there not great danger that whr,! they
once realize this by the Sl, cess OF the dis.
pchshry as system uf laNA,ion, and uS n
meals OF raising lrvrluc for the State, that
