WIDE AWAKE MERCHANTS

Among the brainy, pushing, enter prisings square dealing merchants of
 Pine Bluff, according to the GRAPn- Ic's way of thinking, kastor &
 Bluthenthal, the elothiers, hatters and filters, must be counted in the van. They do not belong to that class of antiquated people who sit down and wait for business to come to them, and lament about dull times like professional growlers because their patronage is not large. They reach out for patronage. They de not sit down and kick about the poy- erty of the world. They find too much to do in stocking their store with saleable articles of clothing, hats and outfittings for men and boys to devote any spare time to lamentations. Besides they find no cause for it. They do not see the need of it. They stock their store with a complete line of goods, mark their prices to bedrock figures and then spend their money literally in letting the people know what they have for sale. The people call in re- sponse to iheircourteonsinv invitations, while the man that does not believe in advertising is sitting down with his hands folded, AIessrs. kastor X Bluthenthal are bustling about wait

Mr. Parke looks after the Monroe house, while Mr. Chas. E. Newton personally superintends the one in Pine Bluff. The people of our city have learned that they can get everything they want at this house at the very lowest cash figures No wonder the salesmen are constantly kept busy doing up goods.

 plueky proprietors of the New York Racket store. The amount Of goods they sell is surprising. They possess q peculiar faculty Of pleasing that is given to but few dealers. The shelves in their store are being constantly replenished and no old shelf-worn stock is exposed for sale. All their goods are bought direct from the factories and their line of clothing

They can be depended on to do something more to make this city a greater commercial center than it now is for they realize that just in proportion as the city grows, the businesss of Kastor < Bluthenthal mustexpand and flourish and become light and power in the commercial world.

They were among the first to inaugurate the cash system in Pine Bluff, and their example should be rapidly followed by others. They do not only sell for cash, but they buy for cash, and are thus enabled to give more or greater inducements than those who follow the credit system.

Death of Capt. Powell ofTyIer County


In the death of Capt. William NJ.
Powell, of Tyler County, the State lost
one of her best citizens and the Re
publican party man whose place
cannot be filled. Deceased was cap
tain of Company L I4th Regiment
West Virginia Volunteer Infantry, OF
which our esteemed fellow-citizen Mr..
J. w. Bishop, was adjutant. He was
native of Taylor County, removing
10 Tyler just prior to the civil war.
Alter the war he resumed his occupa-
ton Of farmer and stock raiser and
was eminently successful. He twice
filled the Office of sheriff and served the
State at two sessions of the Legisla-
ture. At the time of his death. which
occurred last Thursday, he was Presi-
dent of the Board of County Commits
sioners. For many years he had been
chairman of the Republican executive
committee of Tyler County.
On last Saturday, the day of his
funeral, the county convention met,
effected preliminary organization,
and adjourned to pay the last sad rites
to their departed leader His was
fitting funeral-at least one thousand
Republicans attending 1t was our
pleasure to know Capt. Powell very
we'll and truly can we say, "a good
man is gone"

stricter Investigations into the ante
cedents of the applicants.
We believe that silver, as well as
gold,is the money OF the constitution,
and favor a financial policy with both
metals as the basis through interna
tional bimetallisn to be secured by
efforts of the national power to be d.
reeted against such foreign nations as
adhere to the single gold standard.
With no international agreement. we
favor the free coinage of the entire
American product at such ratio as the
Republican representatives in Con-
gress assembled may deem best. All
dollars should be of equal purchasing
power to the end that suitable cur
rency, abundant for all wants, shall
secure to all the people the full results
of their labor. To this end we favor
a uniform monetary system for all the
nations of the American continent
We are amazed that the Democratic
member of the House of Representa-
tives from this District of this State
who introduced the bill which took
away the increasing use Of silver
by the repeal of the so-called Sherman
law should have voted for forty or
more kinds oflocal State money and en-
dorsed "wild cat" money as preferable
to silver.
The administration of the present
Pension Bureatf is d betrayed of the
welfare of Union soldiers and sailors.
We Geplore the needless prosecutions,
suspicious, delays, and privations to
which they have been heartlessly sub
jected in procuring their just dues.
We denounce as illegal the suspen-
sion without notice or hearing of
pensions once allowed. We demand
that pension once granted shall not
be suspended except for fraud proven.
We welcome to cordial fellowship in
the Republican party at this crisis the
men who have heretofore been identi-
fed with other political organizations,
but adopt and support the principles
herein ennnnciated from patriotic con-
siderations of the good of our distress
ed country. We applaud the motives
which lead them to place country
above party. to seek first the welfare
of the people of the United States.

Mr.. Wilson'S Record.

When the Morrison tariff bill was
before the House, Mr.. Wilson oppos-
ed the proposition to put coal on the
free list. " Whatever reduction is
made" he said in an able speech,
should be made so gradually as not &c
wreck. to disturb, or to alarm any OIL
our great industries, and this return
toward a peace tariff ought to be made
by even progress and on a scale OF
justice to ALL" The Mills bill did not
interfere with coal, but left the duty
of Is cents ton undisturbed That
bill was supported by Mr. Wilson.
In the preparation of his own abor-
ton he placed coal on the free list and
then faced about and moved the adop-
ton of a measure (the Senate bilD
which gave coal protection to the
amount of 10 cents a ton.
1t is painfully evident that Mr.. Viii
son is quite an adept at changing his
views on the tariff question.

The World is fretted because the
Herald did not include the names of J.
r. Clifford and Washington Corsey
among those Berkeley Republicans
who called at the home of Mr.. S. B.
Elkins. Mr.. Clifford very fully an
swered the World through the columns
of the Pioneer Press, saving us the
trouble as to him. Mr. Corsey may
have been there, but if SO we were
not aware of it. Be that as it may, we
do not think the World will claim for
a moment that there is any more hon
orable or respectable man in the State,
white or black than Mr.. Corsey. His
conduct during the civil war, when he
staid with and cared for his mistress,
while the man who claimed him as a
chattel was fighting to perpetuate his
bondage, is a record of which even
the editor of the World might be
proud. AS to the insinuation that
colored men are ignored by Republi
cars except at the polls, let our friend
be careful that his party does not en-
deayor to secure their votes by fair or
foul ere the campaign closes.
