As was natural to suppose when the time comes to begin on the clip ping of the tariff there comes also the interested remonstrance from this quarter and that and the other, and the remonstrances are not alto gether away from the south. The sugar man from Louisiana, and the iron man from Alabama, are on hand with their objections, of course. This was to be expected We knew it would come when the battle was on. Who is it that vol untarily lets go the sugar teat when once it is passed to his grip. Pay no attention to the grumble, let it come from what quarter it may The mass of the people are under no obligation to pay bounty to the few engaged in any line of business. To make them do so is species of legal robbery and oppression too monstrous to be endured by free people. Go forward with your tar if reform. Get taxation on the principles of justice, and then Heav- en will smile on the country.

PEOPLE are largely as we take them If we listen to tales to their damage we will be warped in judge ment and miss much of their good ness and excellence If we put our selves in right relations with them, and test them we will find them true, worthy, and helping. We must not judge them through the speetacles of malice, prejudice, or ignorance, but must study them in the light of charity, reason, and experience. Good nelghborhoods are the result of mutual forbearance, honorable recognition of one another, and CO., operative intercourse and helpful ness. Many persons will not put themselves out of the way to show the best that is in them; but let the need arise, and they are found to possess the truest of hearts, the most responsive of souls, and the nobIest of susceptibilities.-E

WOULD the farmer be benefited simply by getting big prices for his cotton and paying big long expense accounts for supplies to raise the crop2 Or, tell us, our brother, what matters it to the farmer whether the products of the farm which be reis- es and consumes at home be valued at high or low figure? Would a side of bacon have a better flavor when valued at 90 cents pound than if quoted at , cents? Or would the farmer be beneitted by carrying cheap silver dollar around in his wallet instead of one of our present hard times dollars if he don ( want to buy anythingl Your cheap money and high prices policy is a sion.--Dardanelle Dispatch.
 According to our neighbours logic it would make no difference, if the currency were contracted to half it's present volume.

wonders of the age, the production of rain by the ''rain-maker, Jewell. He is free talker, and very pleas ant in general appearance. He ar rived in Duncan on the l2th and began his work, allowing him. self five days in which to produce rain, and offering to wager two to one that it would come. On the lTth about p. m, the clouds began to hover over the little city, and by 6 o'clock it was raining in torrents, thus breaking drouth that had ex
 isted for three or four months. It continued to rain until s a. m. the 18th. This was the first time it had rained since l had been here. The question is, was the rain due to the efforts of MT. Jewell or was it not If so, then hurrah for the rain maker. He will never be without a job in this country U. G. WYNN.

Correspondence of THE DEMOCRAT. A Week in the Broad Comanche Ter
 ritory.

In answer to various inquiries of my friends at Russellville and vicin- ity, the following will perhaps sui flee. or at least be of interest to those who have never viewed in per son the scenes which l shall attempt to describe.
 On the 3d of last July myself and others of Duncan, Marlow, Rush Springs and Chickasha, furnished with everything required for camp hunt, crossed the line by way of a gate that admitted us into the great Comanehe Territory. Here I might say that the entire Comanche nation is leased by Suggs & Addington, stockmen of Purcell, and is therefore under fence. Well, this is quite a pasture, and as the broad prairie stretches away to the west, nothing but a dense horizon and vast herds of cattle meets the eyes of the ob- seryor Here from Chickasha west ward is as fine countryas it has ever been my lot to behold--a valley of beautiful prairie bordered on the north by the little Washita river, and stretching out to the west for l5 miles, wholly unbroken Along this valley is an occasional farm with fine crops of corn and wheat, and, as we pass further on, gazing upon natures beautiful formations, we can but stop and say this is just simply wonderfulr' At this the ap- pearance of wolf, prairie dog or a jack rabbit causes the hunter to lev e his gun and try his skill as a marksman. Turkey and deer are further on. Well, we camped on the bank of the Washita near some beautiful lakes. Some boats were there, and here one has an opportu nifty to demonstrate his ability for catching trout. Washita is fine stream to fish in, and one need not go hungry for meat in Comanche Territory, for the Indians mostly are too lazy to hunt and they will not eat fish.
 Twenty miles west from Chicasha is Anadarko. This is a government post where twice each month l20 head of beeves are issued to the In- dians. On issue day the beeves are turned out of the pen, and the Indi- ans with Winchester and six-shoot. CT, mounted upon their ponies, chase the cattle over the prairie till they are well heated. and then they shoot them down The Bucks all sit ting, now form circle around and smoke, while the squaws do the carving, and in many instances the meat is actually eaten raw and with out washing, but the majority have now adopted a more decent way of eating. Here at Anadarko. on the 4th a grand celebration was given. 5000 Indians and 1000 white people were present. The In- dians who are stationed here all live

 He was converted in 1892 and joined the NJ. l.. church | few days later. Living true to his faith. honorng and loving the cause Of an all- high Deity. he never let the stan that held his banner unfiirled to a Christian world swoon away and retreat beneath the scornful hissing Of the fiery demons of Mammon. lie lived as If the SCOTS of the foolish were praise to the yrtu- ous In morality he ascended the scale and placed upon the summit open to an outward world what would answer the wishes of the strictest and deserve the appreciation of the mighty. In business he fulfilled that part of the sacred commands which says Be ye not sloth- always serving the Lord. But death leaves it's shining light of heaven will approach even in midday. The glory of an earthly prize is ike the pencils of light from the emeralds out of the gates of heaven. The time of ones departure is said to be sweeter than his advent. If so, the tears of his parents, which only wet the hand kerchief, are showers of ethereal rain forming blessing upon the golden streets of heaven. His friends were many. Truth rears herself mon ument to the world, once proven the constant will believe. Father, mother, brothers, sister, look up to the snow-whitc throne of heaven, where our feet shall press the glittering strands the last earthly farewell has been given, and at the mercy of Judge, he will answer:
 Servant of God, well done,
 Thy glorious warfare past,
 The battles fought, the yctory's won,
 And thou art crowned at last.
 Of all thy hearts desire,
 Triumphantly possessed,
 Lodged by the heavenly choir,
 In thy Redeemer's breast.

Obituary.

Dudley James was born in Dickson county, Tenn, Oct lth, lsl6, died at his home in Dover Pope county, Ark, Oct. Sd, 1893.
 Truly may we say another old landmark has been removed, but not destroyed. Bro. James came to Pope county in 1858. Of family of six children, only two are now living. He made profession of religion when q young man. and joined the Cumberland Presbyterian church at Gvver, and WAS for many years ruling elder He was married to Mrs. Phebe J. James Nov. 21 ls41. He was once prosperous in business, but the cruel war swept all his property away. Af- ter divine services at the house, the remains were taken by the masonic order and gently and solemnly laid to rest ill the old cemetery north Of town. the entire community almost turning out to attend the funeral. He has gone and we shall miss him. Died as he lived, trusting in Christ for salvation. In hls home in that land of endless joys and immortality, he awaits the coming of loved ones. May the blessings of God rest upon Sister James as she walks along the margin of the river, ready to join him in that far away home. His Pastor 0. F. BETTIs.

THERE is an undisputed fact in the finance question but for which the gold standard policy would have easier sailing That fact is the ab- solute necessity for larger volume of money than gold can supply. We have seen the gold policy of the country shifting from pillar to post for the last twenty years trying in some way to meet this necessity and at the same time to preserve the gold standard. Col Fellows in his Little Rock speech admitted this necessity when he declared him self in favor of the free use of silver. He furthermore declared his pro found inconsistency when in the same speech he advocated nothing but 6 gold standard How can a free use of silver happen with an ab- solute gold standard2 Just the same way that two solids can occu- py the same space at the same time. The free use of silver can never be had until the gold standard is abol- ished and the double standard adopted. And another fact to be written here is that as soon as a double standard is adopted silver will at once take on a fixed value. Nothing has ever kept it at a dis count heretofore but the animosity of the government itself Fix the quantity, stamp the dollar and make it's legal duties to be all that a gold dollars are and we will hear no more of appreciated currency.

you get much, little or nothing for your cotton, you pay it out on long accounts for supplies. Who raises these supplies, and what has the far mer to do but raise his own sup. plies. There must be queer con nection in our neighbours mental anatomy that would make him the champion of hard times dollar. The terms of this argument wraps the mans knuckles. How would the farmer be benefited by carrying cheap dollar around? Why by carrying it. He hasn't got the hard times one. The very idea of a hard times dollar is at the bottom of the idea to get an easier one.
