HEsTER's report of the movement of cotton says that the amount of cotton in sight at this time is over 2, 300, 900 bales short of last season. If the farmers of the South will keep the crop down next year to this years figures and raise their own provisions as they go along, they will soon find themselves out of debt with a moderate but increasing bank account.

HON. II. J. .MANNING.

The GRAPHIC is authoritively in- formed that Hon. M. J. Manning, of Monroe county, has about finally concluded to enter the race for the Democratic nomination for Govern or. This piece of news will be gratifying to Mir. Mannings friends throughout the length and breadth of the State who have recognized in him those exalted qualities and pre- eminent abilities which are supposed to be embodied in the Chief Execu- tive of the State. If Mr. Manning enters the gubernatorial arena, it will not be so much in obedience to his own inclination as in response to the wishes and urgent solicita- tions of leading Democrats through out the State The GRAPHIC does not hesitate to say that of the many distinguished Democrats, whose names have been mentioned in coa- neetion with the gubernatorial nom- ination, that M. J. Manning is the ablest and best qualified of all As a lawyer, speaker and statesman he is the peer of any man in the State. His career in the last House of Rep resentatives, of which he was the leader and which was swayed by his logic, is without a parallel in re- cent political history in Arkansas. We will not say of Manning that he is eloquent; but he possesses what is of vastly more importance in prac- tieal statesmanship--a reasoning and logical mind, a clearness and terse- ness or expression, and pleasant and ingratiating delivery which both captivates and convinces.
 He is studento of public questions, fearless and independent in the ex- pression of his views, yet courteous and winning all the while. As we have before remarked, he posses ses a well-stored legal mind, is thor oughly familiar and conversant with the needs and wants of the State, and would make a Chief Executive Of whom all Arkansans would be truly proud on any and all occasions.
 This is time when the people of Arkansas should select men because of their ability and fitness for the position to which they aspire-it is not time for the indulgence of idle wagaries and mawkish sentiment, We should have men in office of morals, manliness, ability and back bone-men who can grace the offices they hold and not men who are graced by their offices. It is a time for statesmen and statesman ship, and men capable of dealing with important State questions and re- forms. Let the titled "Colonels, Majors, and Generals" who never faced bayonets or bullets and whose only qualification for office is their empty and undeserved titles, and the Cheap Johns of mediocrity and county celebrity who endeavor to ride into office on the back of some cheap hobby, be relegated to the rear, and men of brains and tai ent be ushered to the front. We are quite sure that MT Manning can stand any test applied to him. aud yet stand head and shoulders above any man who has been mentioned in connection with the gubernatorial nomination.
 Actuated by the sole desire that Arkansas may have an able Govern or for the next two or four years,

Prolonged derangement of the nervous system not only affects the brain and men, tai powers, but develops disease in some of the vital organs.

AZ dancers must pay for fiddling so

which its Legislative solons are to

weaith's guidance. So says the City
Council OF Salt Lake and what the
members of that body say will have to
60 in this case. They have decided to
charge the Legislature for tho use OF
law.making chambers and COMMITTEES
rooms in the joint building at the ses-

at that decision Informally. The
question lie. what shall the price be.
Mayor Glepuinning says $4,000; the
COMMITTEES having the matter In hand
cay 81 900, and there the matter rests
temporarily.
The latter sum, the committee con-
tends, Is all sufficient inasmuch a.
that win cover necessary expenses
such rs heating, lighting and jsnitor
work. More than that they do mot
care TO charge as 1t " worth something
to the public to have the Legislature
meet here. Ii now remains to be seen
" neither the Council will see eye to

THIS EXPLAINS IT.
Mrs. Plem Of BIneham Became To-
fatuited With Another,
AND WAS ABOUT TO HE AWAY.
The Money Expected Did Not Ma
teralIze, Hence the Attempt to
Kill Herself.

There was an air OF mystery sur
rounding the attempted suicide yester'
day at Bingham, which according to
news received this afternoon seems to
be now cleared up.
Mrs. Elem, the woman who attemp'-
ed TO end her earthly existence, accord
ing to report Is In love with another
than her husband. She became
infatuated with Mr.. Bemis about
six months ago, and since her
first Acquaintance with the gentle
mar, the ain have had many loving
conversations, finally resulting In an
agreement to elope and seek pastures
new.
1t rs said that Mr.. Elem, through
hard and psrsevering strokes In the
mines, had succeeded IN accumuIating
some 81 500, which his wife had de.
posted in her own name, in = banking
institution In this city. She Is said to
have made arrangements to dee with
her prospective paramount, the couple
intending to leave Bingham for Salt
Lake yesterday, and after drawing the
money from the bank, to proceed on.
ward to . more congenial cline.
But the woman's plans were fruit
trated. She expected sufficient cash
from Salt Lake yesterday to carry her
and Bemis to this city, but when she
vieited the postoffice there was no
money for her. This condition Of at.
faiTs disheRrtened the woman and she
straightway repaired to Walkers drug
store, where she swallowed the poison
Gus drug.
Mrs. Elem passed q very bad night,
ths laudanuni taken having showed its
effects. She is also troubled with heart
disease and this made her condition
more critical than would otherwise
have been the case. DR.. Straup, who
lie attending the woman, thinks she will
recover, however, unless the unox'
pected happens.
