Judge Carr, tRepublicanl.of TIE
Seventh Judicial Dlstric,. who
was not reelected, it is published,
refuses to vacate the bench, in
favor Of S. +. Jones (Democrar,

He holds that the election bill is

of Jones is void. The gDunds
are the same as in the Worlds

pronounced uncons,itutioul and

proved to be not well founded,)
and now the charge of the mur.
derous, unhealthy condition OF
the State prison. On top OF this
the defalcation Of two successive
State Treasurers, aud still worse
the fact that when tried the juries
pronounced them guiItiess. All
this shows a rotten condition OF
affairs in Arkansas. IL is rotten
If all these charges are wholesale

sistently refuse to investigate and
punish, the rottenness is still
deerer because it would show
that public sentiment is rotten.

Two Important Measures.

There are two very important
measures pending in Congress
that are likely to he disposed of
at this session. One Of them is
what is known as the anti.option
bill, to prevent dealing in futures
In Agricultural products. This
measure passed the House last
session, and the Senate has spen,
several weeks In the discussion OF
IL. IL is ihonght that IL it comes
10 vote in the Senate il will pass,
lbut the opposition is very strong
ard trying to talk il to death, aud
notallow a vote to be taken. The
farming interests are vitality con.
cerued ~ the measure as the price
of cotton and wheat particularly
are not regulated by the natural
supply and demand, but by spec.
uiations in the money centers and
too frequently against the inter
ests of the producers.
The other bill ia one to suspend
immigration to this country for \
year. The United States for sev,
eral years has been over run with
scOuriDgs of Europe, paurers
criminals, anarchists aud social
lists, and ii is certainly we'll enough
to put check on this class Of i'm
migrants. On the whole il is time
to call halt in the promiscuous
immigration and coRfne IL with
base restrictions to those who are
likely TO be benefit 10 the conn,
try. The demagoguery of politi,
clans however is most likely "a
defeat the bill now pending in the
| Senaie.
