THE PRIMARIES TOMORROW.

A political experiment will be made tomorrow in which every democrat in St. Francis county is concerned. A
 primary electio under the general election laws will be held, and the re- suit of the exp eriment will be awaited | with interest. In order that the plan may have fair test we suggest that every democrat who is entitled to the privilege, shall turn out and vcte. The executive committee seems to have done everything in their power to make this election model of fairness. and it is hoped that the plan adopted will correct the manifest imperfections of the primary plan as heretofore ex perienced. Of course it is of even more importance that good men should be selected to fill the various county off ces, and if citizens remain away from the polls and thus permit objectional men to be nominated they can blame nobody but themselves. This thing of wash ing ones hands of politics and then lifting the eyes in holy horror at the uncleanness of politics, explains why public offices sometimes fall into un- worthy hands.

TIE TIMES to-day prints special from the Washington correspondent of the Arkansas Democrat, which is d specially pleasing sensation. Senator Jones is ioglcal candidate for the pre- esidency. and the people of Arkan- sas would be proud to support him. It seems to us that the time is ripe to place Southern man on the national ticket. No more perfect type of South ern chivalry and manhood; no grander democrat; no abler or more popular leader could be named than the senior Arkansas Senator. Let the sickly sec tional sentiment, which has heret ofore deprived the South of representation be now and forever overcome by the selection of Senator James K. Jones of Arkansas, the gallant leader Of free coinage, for President.

While at Springdale, Arkansas, in May the strawberry crop was being marketed. Wagon load after wagon load passed our hotel door. It is great industry, and the people of that section have bonanza. A strawberry eXhibl- ton was given us, showing hundred plates of all kinds and sizes of the fin est berries we ever saw. Some were as large as 6 hen egg. Pickers make fair wages. and the money is in circulation at time when no other crop is mar ketable. We hope the people of this county will organize and try 100 acres. Once tried, will convince the most skeptical that there is money in berries.
