SIR:-Looking back over the history
OF all the political parties, we see the
Democratic party organized when the
party lines were first drawn, in about
1892. The Democrat and Federal
parties wher the two great parties In
the United States, on up till 1924,
when the Wing party sprang up, and
the Federal party ceased to exist. Then
we follow the Wing and the Demo
cratic parties on up as the two great
parties, till about 1856, when the Re-
publican party sprang up, and the
party failed to exist. So from that
period on down to the present time, it
has been the Democrat and Republi-
can parties. They have been recog-
nized as the two great political parties
In the United States. BY tracing the
party lines, we find the Democratic
party is the only party that has ever
sttod the test In theeU nited States.
Iu the fall Of 1892 cyclone swept
all over the United States FROM the Do
minion OF Canada to the Gulf Of Next
co and from the Atlantic to the Pacific
Ocean. The Democratic party achieved
one OF the grandest victories ever
achieved by any party; but let us look
at the results after their victory. They
elected traitors TO their cause-traitors
10 their party aud to their country.
Now Il stands the Democratic party IN
hand TO elect true Jeffersonian men TO
Gil our oifics. We should see that we
elect true and well tried Democrats 10
our State Legislature. We want men
who have been Democrats in time
OF need, men who never left their party
for the sake OF office and men that did
not come back to the party for the sake
of an Office. For the State Senate for
Marion, Marshall and Wetzel county
we want a man that is a true Democrat,
a man that has been tried and never
wavered. aud if nominated can carry
his full party vote, A man that has
never drifted after any other. We
would suggest the name OF Aaron Nor
gan for that nomination. We will sup
port him or any other true Democrat,
but will not support wolf In Sleeps
clothing. DEMOCRAT.

One Of the great advantages OF glycer-
inc in its chemical employment Is the
fact that 1t neither freezes nor evap-
crates under any ordinary temperature.
No perceptible loss by evaporation has
been detected at temperature less
than 200 degrees F., but IL heated in

few persons find themselves able to en-
dure. II burns with pale flame sim
liar TO that from alcohol, II heated TO
about 800 degrees. aud then ignited.
Its homeopathic qualities make the
compound OF much use as a vehicle for
holding pigments and colors, as in
stamping and typewriter ribbons, car
bon papers and the like.
II the pure glyeerine be exposed for 3
long time TO freezing temperature, 1t

form crystals, amid which the glycerine
will remain in its natural state OF fluid
ity. II suddenly subjected 10 intense

quite a peculiar substance.

Philip l.. Newman, Boston drummer,
who was at Lindell yesterday, II had as
narrow an escape from drowning as any

fore l could rise to the sur
face felt shock like a
blow on my back, caused by one
of my friends diving to my rescue.
This drove all the air out OF my lungs,
nd l went 10 the bottom, where lay
In a half conscious state. All the events
of my life passed slowly before my
eyes, and l could see my parents and
friends around me weeping. | recalled
with absolute distinctness the smallest
facts OF my lite, even when l was
child at school. | knew that | was
drowning, but thought, after all, 1t was
not such bad death. l won
dered il they would be
able to find my body and shuddered
at the thought OF their failure. Then l
pictured my burial, heard the cloods
falling on my coffin, and thought that l
heard parents speak Of my death as
warning to their children. At last
everything around me became peaceful,
noises died away and felt myself rise
above the earth aud float upwards into
space. From that moment | saw or
knew nothing until / found myself
lying on the bank beside the friend who
had rescued me me and brought me
back TO life by means of atifclal respir-
alton aud friction.-St Louis Globe

rhs Lonrs.t balloon voyage.

The longest balloon voyage as far as
we know was one undertaken in 1883,
in which the distance travelled was, a lii
tie over twelve hundred miles. The
voyagers on that occasion made IN as
cent in France, with the intention oil
crossing the Mediterranean and laDSng
id. Algeria. The wind, proving unfey-
orAb!e, carried them toward Ccrsiea.
When they were near that island the

An Artistic Piece Of Work.

This afternoon the reporter of tie GRAPHIC was shown q piece of work that, for skill, surpassed anything he ever saw before. 1t was q Sl bill raised to $l0, and the man who did the work certainly has few equals in this or any other country. The bill was passed on the Bank of Pine Bluff, the cashier of which in the hurry of business accepted it from some of our merchants. He then paid it out to the Merchants and Planters Bank, where it was de- tected by the cashier, Ar Charles Bloom. Mr Bloom noticed that the vignette on the bill was one that he had never seen on $10 bill before. and on investigation with the microscope discovered the improve made upon Uuncle sam by some ar tist when be raised $l to that of q $lO.

The following letter from Dr. H.

 F NE BLUFF, December 6, 1S94. To Editor Pine Bluff Graphic;
 Dear Sir:-Please allow me space in your paper to make q few remarks to he citizens of Pine Bluff regard ing the probable danger of using water, for drinking purposes, pumped from the Arkansas riyer at this time. It is very likely that the water here tofore furnished by the Water aud Light company has been free from danger Until pumped from heliver there could be no question, when fresh, about it's purity.
 The water is now being taken from the river below the mouth of Brump' E Bayou, which it the natural drain age for all manner of refuse from several hundred families, besides q large slaughter pen, and the most dangerous of all, two large cem. etefies. The drainage from hundred or more open privies and cess pools is bad, but add to this the drainage from a large slaughter pen, with its decaying blood and offal from thou sands of butchered animals, together with the drainage of hundreds and perhaps thousands of pur dead whe sleep in Bellwood and St Joseph, il is narrowing!

and that when the wells of the com pany became dry, or at least insulfi- cient to furnish enough water for domestic and fire purposes, the com pany put ill a pipe to the river with the intention of furnishing water from if, in an untiltered state, to the consumers. The city at once sued for an injunction to prevent it. The coul at this place, which should have taken action, failed to do so, and the matter was carried to the United States court, and there if yet rests, the council being completely i nored, and the lives of our citizens are now absolutely at the mercy of a corporation which persists in fur nishing fluids (we cannot call it
 wates) which flows ftom the cenc- teries of the city, slaughter pens and
 privies. This matter is called to the attention of the people of Pine Bluff. SD that they may know the truth,
 and now the matter is left ill their hands. It rests with them as to
 whether our fair city shall become
 the home of the deadly typhoid fever and other diseases or not. Ii the courts of the land will not protect

appreciate the fact that those graves are all filled with water during the winter and spring; and we must ask: Where does it go? The answer is, = Into Brump's Bayou"
 According to scientific research, the dead body, buried il an open grave is not obliterated in twenty years, if ever, but by degrees slowly disinte- grates, filling the adiacentearth with unwholesome fluids; to be, in this case, carried by percolation into Brump's Bayou
 Such filth would, if pumped into the mains and service pipes and drank, produce typhoid and other deadly levers and disea ses. Local rains have begun Brump's Bayou is flowing The river is yet low. Whether the company will or will not be able to avoid the drainage just referred to 1 am not prepared to say, butregard if as an extremely dangerous experiment, and one that should rot be attempted by the com pany, or tolerated by the city, or permitted by the courts.
 It might be contended that fltra- ton through the earth from graves would serve to purify it, which could be admitted in certain sense, but not to the extent of relieving it of its bacteria or disease producing germ.
 A simple test, such as can bc made here, for the presence or absence of orgaaic matter, or even for the nitrates, is without the slightest value in determining the presence of q sease producing germs, and, cvn- seqnently, unworthy of any consid- eration whatever.
 According to the latest and highest authority on the subject of drinking water. if requires a combined exam ination, chemical both qualitative and qualtitative. as well as micro scopic, to determine it probability
