THE BROOK.
BY EUGENE FIELD.

looked in the brook and saw face
Heigh-ho, but child was II
There were rushes and willows in that
place
And they clutched at the brook as the
brook ran by;
And the brook it ran its own sweet way,
AS child doth run in needless play,
And as it ran I heard it say:
Hasten with me
To the roistering sea
That is wroth with the flame of the
morning sky!"
I look in the brook and see face:
Heigh-ho, but the years go by!
The rushes are head in the old time place,
And the willows l knew when child
was I;
And the brook it seemeth to me to say,
AS ever it stealeth on it's way,
Solemnly now, and not in play:
"Oh. come with me
To the slum brous sea
That is gray with the peace of the
evening sky!"
Heigh-ho, but the years go by
Iwould to God that child were !

R. B. Macon, of Phillips county who spoke at this place few days since in the interest of the democratic party, and who has been speaking in other towns in Eastern Arkansas, made his speech at Piggott Saturday according to announcement. One Geo. Nj. Jack son, a rank popalist, replied to him and denied many of his accusations During Mir. Maeon's rejoinder, which was "hot shot in the ranks of the enenmy," Jackson sprang from his seat, which was directly behind Macon, and, without word of warning, dealt him a severe blow on the back of the head knocking him to the floor on his face and attempting to jump on him, but was prevented by number of citi- zens. Outwitted in the intellectual con- bat the willy populist sought to gain pres- tige by brute force. To the intelligent mind he thus acknowledged his weak ness, A principle cannot be establish ed by sueh methods,

A PRINCIPLE many times expoun- ded in these columns is again brought to mind by existing conditions, and the Monroe County Sun, which sums up the situation i'll the following terse language. "The migratory species of the genus Cheap John, having heard of our splendid crop prospect are flock ing here in great numbers, and store houses are at premium. Nothing in this mention should be construed as meaning that the Sun is not ready to welcome business men to Clarendon; it does mean however. that it opposes patronizng any business that opens temporarily during the money season. robs our legitimate and permanent merchants of considerable cash trade and goes away on the approach of spring"

A NUMBER of democratic candidates petitioned the county election com missloners to appoint one populite judge of election at each voting pre- cinct. When Judge Coffey had the appointing power he gave each of the three parties one judge, but it must be remembered that in those days the populists and republicans were an unit. so that the pops thus controlled the elections. Since the democrats have the appointing power, we see no reason why two good, honest democrats should not be appointed at each precinct.

State Democratic Platform,

The Democratic party of Arkansas in con- vention assem bled, hereby reaffirms it's faith in and allegiance to the tinae-honored princi- vles of the National Democratic party as ex- pressed in it's platforms and ratified in its leg islation throughout the history of the gov ernment. In addition thereto, it makes the following specific declarations:
 We insist upon strict compliance with the repeated declarations of the party in favor of tariff for revenue only. to the end that the protection favored by the Republican party and crystalized in the infamous discrinina- tions of the Mckinley tariff bill. shall be an- nulled and fair competition in the markets of the world shall be opened to the producers of all classes in the United States, and fair ex- change for our surplus products thereby se- cured.
 To the end that taxation may be distributed on an equitable basis and accumulated proper ty pay it's fair share of the expenses of the government. which have for so long time been borne by the consumption of the people We favor an income tax.
 We still consider the act of 1873. whereby silver was demosetized as the greatest legis- lative crime of the century, and demand the free and unlimited coinage of both silver and gold at a ratio of 16 to as 1t then existed.
 We believe the constitutional power to bor row money should be exercised by congress only in the event of great emergencies when the power to levy and collect taxes commeD- surate with the requirements of the occasion cannot be enforced without manifest oppres- sion of the people. Therefore we are opposed to the issue of bonds In ti,ne of peace.
 We congratulate the Democratic party and the people upon the repeal of the odious Fed eral election law.
 We favor the continued maintainanee of our free public schools in the interest of gen. eral intelligence and public information.
 Believing that home rule and local self government are cardinal principles in Re- publican government, we therefore endorse and approve the action of the legislature of Arkansas in enacting laws relegating to the people the right of settling the liquor ques- ton for themselves in accordance with the wishes and sentiments of the country affect ed
 We congratulate the people upon the faith. iul and economical administration of her state government under Democratic rule. and invoke the cooperation of all good citizens in the perpetuation of so desirable a condl- ton of affairs.
