Carbondale III. Herald.
Of all the articles ever
written this is the most out
rageous. We have always
had a good opinion of the
people Of Illinois and take it
for granted that this is the
only slanderous editor(O
in that state,
But should we say editor?
Surely such person should
not be classed with that pro-
fession. His article not only
does the people of Arkansas
who are among the most in
tellectual Of the Union a
great injustice, but also
shows his knowledge of man
ners, morals, and etiquette.
If this uncultured, unreined
and uncouth specimen of hu-
manity thinks to benefit the
cause of Repuulicanism by
giving vent to such utteran-
ances, he is greatly mistaken
for the American people are
too enlightened to believe
such rot. More than this,
we confidently assert that
the good people of ILL.,, will
give the gentleman(?) a
muchly deserved rebuke in
the coming election, But if
this should not be the case,
Arkansas editors possess all
the necessary requisites that
tend to make up perfect gen
tlemen and not only would
they not be guilty of writing
such articles, but they would
certainly not furnish space
in their papers for those who
might desire it.

Hard On The HOG.

let the front hog get fast in
a crack, and every son of a
sow will jump on him and
tear him to pieces, Just so

porous and has money he cant
keep his friends off with a

What an Illinois Editor Has to Say OF the
People Of Arkansas,

EfOplt VI AEhdHSds'
The miserable yaller-bel-
lied state of Arkansas went
Democratic last Monday by
an increased majority, and
the poor deluded victims of
the free silver party around
here are nearly tickled to
death. They punch the
They punch the gold men in
the ribs and run around them
with one wing down like a
rooster in a barnyard, Does
anyone suppose for an instant
that the sound money men eX-
pected anything else? The
only wonder to us is that it
did not 60 unanimous. We
are surprised that the honest
money cause has any friends
at all in that narroW-con-
cracted ard God d-forsaken
state. Its inhabitants are a
lot of peak-nosed renegades
who are a by-word for the
rest of tha United States.
Every man with a mind as
thick as a piece of tissue pa
per leaves the sterile sand
hills and craw6sh farms of
Arkansas as soon as he is old
enough to travel, and if he
comes north and lives long
enough he may a cquir r e
enough saving grace to keep
him from going to everlast-
ing perdition, but even then
it is a constant struggle with
him. The people do not en-
gage in agriculture, for the
land is so cursed it wont
even raise a disturbance.
Every time they bury a man
in Arkansas they dump a
wagon load of manure in the
grave so that he will rise on
resurrection day. Its inhabi-
tants are composed of mis-
cradle old women and lean,
lank- k-bellied yahoos. Their
principle occupation is drink
ing whisky and hanging mig
gers. They are too infer
nally lazy to eat a full meal
and consequently have a
hungry look. Nobody ever
saw a fat man in Arkansas.
They are too shiftless, too
trifling, too worthless to ev-
er get fat. Some of them
come north and take on ALT
tie flesh, but on their heath
they are like Cassius-. they
have a lean and hungry look.
They all have noses like pei
leans and eyes deep sunk,
yaller, watery and sickly,
which are set in their heads
so close together that they
can look through a key-hole
with both eyes at once.
They are constantly looking
around for some one to beat.
They are restless and uneasy
a condition they have acquir-
ed by lying awake at nights
and listening to the notes of
the bullfrog and the hum of
the "muskeeters. Religious
ly they are divided into two
classes-the heathens and
the greater heathens, The
heathens get drunk every
Sunday on mean whiskey
and raise the devil generally
with sacred things when not
too drunk. The worse than
heathens hang and burn mig
gers for pastime, and when
they get down to business
assasinate white men. A

WANT A PENSION.

An organization Of about fly
negroes all ex-slaves, has been eff
fected ut topeka, Ksnsas, I r the
purpose Of making q demand on
Congress for pensions It Is the
purpose to make It Of National
scope. The idea originated with an
old negro named c. w. Charles.
The demands of the association, It
such 1t can be called. are to take
the form of . petition that will he
addressed to Congress, signed BY
al, ii possible, of the ex-slaves in
the United States, asking pensions
in the following schedule: All over
20 years Of age to get 500 in cash
aud SIG per month thereafter; al
over Gu, 5000 in cash and $l2 per
month all who were over so years
old at the time Of the emancipation,
$500 and IS . month; all over l
year at the time Of the emancipa-
tiOn, 500 cash aud 81 . month.
There are about 1910 ex-slaves in
Topeka, most Of whom are happ.
in the belief that all they will have
to do is to write to Congress to get
relief for their distress.
