The Latest Cabinet Slate.
FIVE OF THE EIGHT PORTFOLIOS ABB
soLUTELY PROVIDED FOR.
WASHINGTON. February II.

VASHlNGION, TcDIudIy H.
Secretary OF State, Walter Q.
Gresham, of Indiana; Secretary Of the
Treasury, John G. Carlisle, of Ken.
lucky; Secretary of War, Daniel La
mont, OF New York; Secretary of the
Navy, James E. Campbell, of Ohio;
Postmaster General Wilson S. Bissel,
of New York; Secretary of the Interior
Hoke Smith, of Georgia; Attorney
General, ]. Randolph Tucker, of
Virginia, or William l.. Wilson, of
West Virginia; Secretary of Agricul-
ture, not yet decided upon, but it will
go west of the Mississippi river.
This is the Cabinet slate as it is
made up by gentlemen who have seen
Mr. Cleveland within twenty-four
hours and who enjoy the most con-
fdential relations with him. There is
said to be absolutely no doubt what
ever concerning five of the eight
portfolios-State, Treasury, War, Post
Office and Interior. The Navy, De,
partmenr of Justice and Attorney
Generalship are still in doubt.
The revival Of the talk Of Ex.
Governor Campbell, Of Ohio, for a
Cabinet place comes from an intimate
friend Of Senator Carlisle. The Ohio
delegation would be greatly pleased If
Ex-Governor Campbell should enter
the Cabinet. He would bring to the
place great ability and popularity, and
In a social way the Campbells would
probably rival the Whtneys of the
last Cleveland administration.
Governor Campbell has already
practically refused Cabinet place on
the score that his business interests
would not permit of his acceptance
and he has also refused all the i'm
portunities of his friends to stand as a
candidate for Governor of Ohio mex,
fall against Mckinley, an opportunity
should he be elected, Of much greater
Importance in political sense than a
Cabinet place.
Nevertheless Mr.. Cleveland is sale
to be very solicitous that Campbell
should enter the Cabinet, and has de
cided 10 again press him to accept.
With regard to the Attorney
Generalship, MIR. Cleveland has de
ciied to give it to the South, but h,
has not yet made choice between
Tucker and Wilson. Mr.. Clevelanc
wants the Secretary of Agriculture t.
go to the far West for biographies
and other considerations. The de
clination of Governor Boise was
great disappointment to him, and h
has not yet determined upon tn
man to substitute in his place.

"weare as sure that Hoods SsrsapaYilla saved

Five years ago on board ship our three boys

well, but about two months after. hs began to
complain Of soreness and pain In the vascinated

THE SUBJECT OF TAXATION.

There is very important subject
which should be carefully consider
ed by the taxpayers of the State
before having their property assess
ed. Many of our people demon
onstrate great disloyalty to our
State government by giving in their
property far below it's actual value.
We have conservative Consti-
tuition which limits the rate of tax
alton that the people may not be
imposed upon by State officials and
LEGISLATORS who might instigate
schemes and take advantage OF the
more liberal provisions relative to
this matter; hence, ractically, tn Q
whole matter was placed into the
hands Of the people who have tax
en- advantage of the limit to avoid
the full payment of their pro rata
of the State funds The
State is now deeply in debt and it
is evidently high time the people
were coming to their own rescue;
that they save the crealt oi
our State, and gain for her record
of purity and nobility.
Our people appear to be unap-
preclatiye of the valuable protcc-
ton they arc enjoying, and instead
of exerting all their power and IN
fuce to perpetuate this State gov
ernment which has promoted and
encouraged all our lawful institu-
tions, they are yearly intensifying
the feeling that our State must have
a more liberal Constitution, one
which will give the legislative
branch power to raise the limit OF
taxation. Such an amendment, we
think, is unnecessary, il our people
The Green Forest tribune., 1893-05-11

SECRETARY of the Interior Hoke
Smith has recently outlined his pol
icy. He said that as far as pensions
were concerned the existing laws,
would be honestly administered.
Those entitled to pensions would
receive them, but efforts would be
made to prevent the payment of
pension money to those who had
used corrupt means of obtaining it.
The "pension lawyer" he said,
would be ignored as far as possible.
Men with an aptitude if not genius
for n echanics will fill the places in
the Patent O flee, and the business
of that department will be compile
ted as promptly as possible. Con-
cerning forsetry, no timber will be
allowed to be cut on the public
lands to benefit corporations mere
ly or even large private enterprises,
but there must be resultant pub
lie benft. The Indians will be
fairly treated, and no undue advan-
tage will be taken of them. There
will be no maudlin sentiment about
the administration of their affairs,
however, and no extra privileges
allowed them simply because they
were wronged III the early days OF
the republic. Altogether, if secre-
tary Smith succeeds in carrying out
his policy as outlined, he will have
successful administration of his
department.

would hold sacred the confidence
placed in them. To do this they
must abandon this faithless, disloy-
al practice Of naming a decreased
valuation of their property when
it is assessed.
The papers throughout the State
should speak out in condemnation
Of this common evil, which is un-
dermining our credit and defaming
the name of our State.
Soon the work of assessing will
begin again. We hope that Car
roll will be one to take the lead in
instituting the loyalty which is due
our noble State.

A HORRIBLE outrage of a ]5-year-
old grill is reported from near Car
rollton, which, i true, stands with
out parallel in the history of this
country. A young william named
Nelson perpetrated the crime on
Miss Motley. Squire Coulson
issued warrant for Nelson's az
rest, but Constable Ratcliff was un-
able to capture him, as he speedi-
ly fled the country. We hope he
will yet be brought to justice.

THE Arkansas Press, published
at Little Rock, is soon to be chang

than any other sheet printed with
in our borders. We hope to see the
Daily Press meet with merlted
success.

cast up by the sea, became sultan, with
400 fair creatures as wives, was pur-
sued, haunted and hunted down by q

had more experience in the course of

Fred Frear takes the part of Muley
Hassan. He makes it funny all through
from start to finish. The expression Of
his face when he learns that he has
!,3l3 babies left over from the last ad-
ministration is alone worth tn price Of
admission, and Marie D-essler is the
termagant wife, Alpaca. The scene of
her meeting with her husband in the

in the piece. Annie Myers is a round
faced MIN ble footed little woman, who
sings topical song cleverly. She takes

The Lecture Last Night.

''Pythianism Exposed" by Bro. j. H.
Powell at the Academy Of Music last
evening, found an audience satisfied
that its antithesis. Damon and Pyth-
las" and the "hand of fellowship" was
the answer.
The lecture from beginning to end was
intermingled with mir,h and pathos.
n his earlier lines comedy played the
leading part, but When the orator ap-
preached the order and referred to the
many sacrifices made for friendships
sake" the true ring of the worth of X.
Z. silenced the tongue OF comedy.
The knights in full regulia, fair ladies
and daughters attested the worth of
Pythianism unrevealed.
