CAPITAL COMING TO ARKANSAS.

Another party of Northern Cap
italists, seeking investment and To-
cation in this State, arrived in Lit
tie Rock, yesterday The party in
question is composed of Col. W. H.
Browning, of Chicago, and W, Fl.
Hughes and wife, of Randolph Wis,
who, after passing the day in the
Capitol City, left last evening for
Van Buren, Ark, where they have
purchased a township Of desirable
land along the Frisco in the north
ern part of Crawford county, and
will go into the fruit business ex-
tensively.
In conversation with a Little Rock
newspaper man, on the resources
and advantages Of the State Col
Browning said;
"Too much cannot be said of the
advantages of your state" " 'for
there are more and better oppor-
tunities here for a man without

PINE BLUFF, Ark APRIL 8, 1894
DEAR SIR:-Your dispatch was
duly received at 1915 p. IN. l had
previously written you of my ena-
bility to make a canvass of your
city and county, This, | trust, will
reach you by this evenings mail.
The reasons set forth in my respon-

l am compelled to regard this integ-
rity of my position with my patrons
many of whose sons are now near
ing the close of this sessions work
and who are preparing for college
examinations prior to classification
in other institutions. Had Mr..
Shinn carried out in good faith the
assurance given me four years ago,
that he would not run for third
term, but that he would step down
and out in four years, both my
friends and myself would now be
saved much work, worry and eX-
pense. | believed at that time
that he gave me his word in good
faith and l had an abiding conf
dence in his sincerity of speech and
integrity of action. The issue at
present disproves it all. When l
confronted Mr.. Shinn with his as
surance tome, while standing at the
polls in Van Buren,, oath of March,
he admitted it, but tried to excuse
himself on the ground that he
thought | was going to run for Con
gress Yet, he wrote Prof, Chas
T. Gordon, in January last, that he
was ''going to analyze the anti
third term hersey." He also stated
in the town of Fayetteville, in the
face of creditable witnesses, whose
names ! have, that che was going
to run for superintendent of public
instruction the third time for two
reasons; first, for himself; second, to
break down the partition wall be-
tween the second and the third
terms"
It seems to me that Mr., Shinn is
anxious for the people to know first
his own great Importance, and sec
ond that he is defiant in his attitude
to party sentiment.

Jimmie Came Down.

A decidedly amusing incident of
the Coxey army parade in Wash
ington was the dislodgment and
the attendant utter discontinue
of young James G.. Blaine, son of
the late distinguished Secretary Of
State, from the Washington monu-
ment in the capitol grounds. When
the grounds east of the capitol
were thronged with people young
Blaine climbed upon Greenmoughs
statue Of the father of his country
and obtained an elevated post. A
burly policeman deserted the young
man, and with a decided brogue of
the green isle, called out:
"Come down out O that"
Blaine ignored the command

policeman. The officer thrust his

SHAPING THE TARIFF BILL.
Senator Hills Attitude Toward the
Measure Somewhat Uncertain.

1esIerddy Geographic news from
Washington Con the tariff situation
in the Senate, state that while
the reports going out from the
city, early in the day, indicated
that there might be some difficulty
in agreeing upon a tariff bill, the
conferences which we're had by the
leaders of the Democratic side of
the Senate during the afternoon
seem to have been in the interest
of harmony, and what lack of conf
dence there was among those who
hoped to secure a compromise dis
appeared Among those engaged
in the conference we're Senators
Brice, German and Cockrell, while
Senator Hill was present a portion
of the time, 1t is the opposition of
the New York senior Senator that
has caused some trouble, and there
are a number Of Senators who be-
lieve, even now, that Mr.. Hill will
not vote for the bill with the income
tax provision, and it is almost as
certainly understood that the in
come tax will remain.
TARIFF BILL SHAPING.
Continuing the report says:
The combination Democratic com
mittee, which has been shaping the
tariff bill so as to command the en-
tire party support is nearing the
end of its labors. Despite published
reports in protectionist papers of
the discomfort of Murphy, Smith
and others the Democratic Sena-
tors stand practically united with
the possible exception of Senator
Hill. The latter declines to com
init himself either way, He says
he stands just where he did, The
committee put in a hard days work
today and are now absolutely conf
dent Of success.
The amendments will be drawn to
meet conflicting Democratic opin-
ions. The income tax provision will
be modified 50 as to relieve it of the
inquistorial features complained of
and to broaden it so as to avoid the
allegation of sectionalism, The
amendments will be offered in ac-
cordance with usual Legislative pro-
cedure.
What stings the Republicans to
madness is that only such changes
as meet the approval of Democrats
will be adopted. All Republican
amendments will be rejected by a
combined Democratic vote.
The Democrats of the select com
mittee express confidence that they
can carry the bill through even in
face Of Senator Hills opposition,
but they do not believe he will hold
out against his party Their the
ory is that Hill is playing for the
adoption Of his cloture rule. He
does not believe the bill can be fore
ed through until the rules are so
changed as to cut off debate. When
ever the Democrats signify their
willingness to follow Hill in adopting
the cloture he will join his party
associates in crowding the bill
through
Senator Lodge declared today
that the Republicans intended to
discuss every item of the bill, This
would consume months. Meantime
Democrats are remaining silent and
permitting the Republicans to do
all the talking. This declaration Of
Lodge admonishes the Democrats
that they must prepare to change
the rules in order to pass the bill
within a reasonable time. This
strengthens Senator Hill in his pur
pose to change the rules.

THE SENATE.

The Republicans varied their pro-
gramme when the Senate met to-
day. Although it was evident a
quorum was not present no Repub-
lican made the point, and the Sen
ate proceeded Immediately with its
preliminary routine business. The
House bill authorizing the wearing
of a distinctive army and navy
badge on public occasions was pass
ed on motion of Mr.. Mitchell, of
Wisconsin. Mr.. Hunton asked
unanimous consent for the consid-
GRAFTON of bill to remit the penal
ties on the dynamite cruiser Vesu-
vius Mr.. Chandler objected
Mr.. Allison suggested that the
amendment under consideration Ito
change the date when the bill
should go into effect from June l to
June 30) in the first line of the bill,
which has been ostensibly the pend
ing subject for discussion for ten
days, should be passed over.
Mr.. Harris agreed to pass over
the amendment in order to make
progress Mr. Quay, who was emit
tied to the foor then yielded to
Mr. Chandler.
After some further desultory de-
bate a motion was offered by Mr..
Quay, that the Senate 90 into ex-
ecutive session. On vote the mo-
tion was lost by a vote of 80 to IL.
The hour for Democratic caucus

Patents
Notice to Invetors,

There was never time in the history OF
our country when the demand for Inventions
and Improvements in the arts and sciences
generally was so great as now. The con-
veniences Of mankind in the factory and
work shop, the household, on the farm, and
in official life, require continual accesslons
to the appurtenances and implements to each
in order to save labor, time ard expense
The political change in the administration
of government does not affect the progress
alert, and ready to perceive the existing
deficiencies, does not permit the affairs OF
government to deter him from quickly con-
ceiylng the remedy to overcome existing
discrepancies Too great care cannot be
exercised in choosing a competent and skill
full attorney to prepare and prosecute an
application for patent Valuable interests
haye been lost and destroyed in lnnumerable
instances by the employment of incompe-
tent counsel, and especially Is this advice
applicable to those who adopt the "No pat
ent, no pay system. Inventors who entrust
their business to this Class OF attorneys do

No Blanks In this Competition.

THIS is a competition of rather an unusual
nature 1t IS common to offer prizes for the
best story, or picture, or architectural plan,
all the competitors risklng the loss of their
labor and the successful one merely selling
his for the amount of the prize, But the
Press Claims Company's offer is something
entirely different Each person is asked
merely to help himself, and the one who
helps himself to the best advantage is to be
rewarded for doing it The prize Is only q
stimulus to do something that would be well
worth doing it The architect whose COM
petltiye plan for q club house on q certain
corner is not accepted has spent his labor on
something of very little use TO him But the
person who patents SIMPLE and useful de-
vice in the Press Claims Company's Compe-
tition, need not worry if he fail to secure the
prize. He has substantial result to show
for his work zone that will command its yal-
ue in the market at any time
The PLAN man who uses any article IN his
daily work ought to know better how to i'm
prove 1t than the mechanical expert who
studies it only from the theoretical point of
view Get rid of the idea that an improve
ment can be too simple to be worth patent
ing. The simpler the better. The person
who best succeeds in combining simplicity
and popularity, will get the Press Claims
Company's twenty five hundred dollars
The responsibility of this company may be
Judged from the fact that its stock is held by
about three hundred of the leading newspa-
pers of the United States
