A HUNG JURY
was.the Result of the sterl Godfrey Trial

Saturday the case of the State of Arkansas vs. Sterl. Godfrey came up for trial in the Jefferson Circuit court.
 Tke case is one in which MT. God frey was indicted by the last Grand Jury on the charge of 'intimidating and preventing Mr. E. L. Colburn from doing a lawful act"
 It will be remembered by readers of the Graphic that on or about the 7th day of January, Mr. Godfrey armed himself with double bar reled shotgun, and then, accom- panied by his sister, Mrs. John Huggard, and his neice, Miss Mary Huggard, repaired to the steam gin operated by MT. Colburn. On their arrival there Miss Mary Huggard proceeded to chastise Mr. Colburr with buggy-whip that she brought with her for that purpose, on the grounds that he had sent her an in sulting proposition by notorious negro procuress.
 Several weeks after the deplorabl, affair Mr. Colburn swore out war rant in the magistrates court of Al

we cali the attention of our readers to the fact that his communication presents no new or convincing ar gument, and is couched in the lam guage usually employed by the silver monometallists in denunciation of those who want to see every dollar of equal purchasing power in the markets and in the payment of debts. It abounds in the custom ary glittering generalities. It heaps denunciation upon the ''gold bugs and ''Wall Street, and seeks by ap. peals to prejucice and passion to ac. complish that which cannot be done by reason and argument. Col. Jones does not tell us how we can have the free and unlimited coinage oi silver and main tain our silver money on parity with gold. There is but one practical question for the people of this country to consider, and that is, can the United States, sin gle handed and alone. enter upon the free and unlimited coinage of the worlds silver at the ratio of 16 to l and maintain it at a parity with gold? All that is said about the evil results of a single gold stan- dard is mostly true, but if the re- suits of "a single gold standard are disastrous to a country, would not the silver single standard be ten times more so? This phase of the question Col. Jones nor none of the free siIverites undertake to discuss. They direct all of their anathemas at the single gold standard without telling us how under the free and unlimited coinage of silver the white metal can be maintained at a parity with the yellow metal. Here they jump the question and advocate 8 policy which will result in an abso- lute silver basis-the same that HOW exists in Mexico where labor is paid from 122 to 25 cents day-but they haven't the courage to come out and say so. Our free silver friends would make more progress if they would give the reasons for the faith thatis in them instead of contenting themselves with hurling epithets at ghosts and "gold bugs"

PINE BLUFF. ARK. APRIL T, 1893.
LARGEST DAILY CITY CIRCULATION
GOT. CL4RKE .1ND THE B1IL
 W4Y. COMMISSION.


 The Clarke cuckoos and State ad- ministration organs are lauding the Governor as champion of q Rail- way Commission and the people. Since we have seen this statement so often reiterated by the soft syco- phants and cringing cuckoos who seemingly delight in fawning at the feet of the tyrant of Arkansas, it becomes our unpleasant task to pre- sent the facts as we find them to the people of Arkansas.
 The State government is divided into three separate and independent departments-executive, legislative and judicial. By the constitution of the State the Governor is given the right to recommend to the Gen eral Assembly such measures as he may deem expedient. When MT. Clarke was inaugurated Gov ernor of the great State of Arkansas in the presence of the General As sembly last January, not word did he utter in behalf of a railway com mission, or refer to it in any manner whatever. His entire inaugural address was devoted to a new con- stitution and the consolidation of elections, neither of which meas ures (though bill for each was in- troduced), was passed by either branch of the Legislature. But this was not the only opportunity the Governor had to urge his views be- fore the General Assembly, for, if he had felt sufficiently interested, and deemed it of sufficient import ance, he could at any time have senta special message to the Legis- lature recommending the passage of a railway commission bill. But the fact confronts those who are now endeavoring to connect MT. Clarke's name with commission bill that at no time did he exercise his constitu- tional privilege in that regard, and it was not until after the defeat of the Robinson bill in the House that the Governor gave any public inti- nation of his views on that subject.
 At that time, it will be remem- bered, the Memphis Commercial Ap- peol was exhausting itself in abuse of the Iron Mountain lobby, and after the defeat of the commission bill, Gov. Clarke saw lis opportu- nity to gain little newspaper mo- toriety outside of the borders of the State by submitting to an interview for the G-A., in which he intimated that the members of the House had been corrupted.
 For the Governor of the State to go outside his line of duty and gratuitously insult and reflect upon the honor and integrity of the peo- ple's chosen representative in another and independent branch of the Government, was an anomalous and unprecedented proceeding, to say the least of it. If the House had failed to carry out the Govern or's wishes on the commission bill, the members were not previously advised of it, and if there is any blame for the defeat of that meas ure, the Governor is equally eulpa- ble with those who caused it's de- feat, and should be made to bear the full measure of his responsibility.

EXAMPLE OF IMMIGRANTS.
Citizens of the Republic, Says Seer

Citizens of the Republic, Says Secre-
tary Herbert, Should BeEver Vigilant.
The annual dinner Of the Scotch-lrish
Society Of Philadelphia was held last even
Ing at Philadelphia, and about 200 men,
bers of the society and its guests were
present. The principal guests of the even
ing were Secretary Herbert of the navy,
Senator Henderson of Nebraska, and Cor
gresham Grosvenor of Ohio. The dinner
was an entire social one, and politics did
not obtrude itself.
In the course Of his remarks Secretary
Herbert said:
ut is, perhaps. true that the Immigrant,
newly clothed with the rights of an AnlerI-
can citizen, Is often more active in the
performance of his political duties than his
neighbori who Is a native. In so far as
this is true 1t is not to the discredit Of the
newcomer, but to the shame of the native
American.
I'm a government by the people no man
has a right to immense himself in his own
Of government to others. Eternal vigilance
is the price at which order, law and JUS
tice are to be maintained in cities and
states throughout the nation.
New problems are perpetually confront
ing US. Liberty, If not guarded by laws
sanctioned by intelligence, will beget an
archy, the appeals Of demagogues, if not
silenced by public opinion, will beget COM
munism. Honest debts must be paid in
honest money, labor must not be cheated
of it's reward, conscience must assert it
self in city, state, and In national govern
ment."

MEXICO PAYS ITS TRIBUTE.
Flags Half Masfcd Out of Respect to
Minister Gray's Memory.

The body of the late Isaac p. Gray, Unit
ed States minister to Mexico, was embalm-
ed Thursday night at the American Hos
pital at Mexico City, where he died, and
was removed at O'Clock yesterday after
noon to the United States legation.
Americans crowded the rooms to pay
their last tribute. A guard of honor from
the twenty-first regiment was placed at the
legation by the war minister. The colors
were draped, and as the body was carried
in they were lowered, and the band played
a funeral march. The body was placed on
temporary bier, with splendid wreath of
camellias, sent by Mrs. President Diaz, at
the foot. Four sentries were placed in the
room with the coffin. and others stood
guard on the stairs and outside.
Minister Mariscal and his wife and the
German. French and British ministers call
ed during the day. President DiaZ also
called In person at S o'clock.
President Diaz has ordered that all,flags
on the public buildings be kept at half
mast until the body crosses the bordcr.
Minister Mariscal has written to Mr. But
Ter, expressing the deep regret of the gov
the same to the United States government.
The regret is universal, as Minister Gray
was highly respected by all who had come
in contact with him.
The body will be taken home at once for
burial The funeral will be large and
notable one, many organizations from
over the state of Indiana having already
signified their intention to attend. The
body will probably lie in state at the capt.
out of respect to the memory of the eX-
governor
