aud their assistance will help us to win

New Men to the Front.

The most remarkable feature of poli- tics this year is the large number of new or hitherto obscure men that have been brought to the front The old war horses of both parties arc made useful in reporting the doings of the newer or younger men. So numerous have the new Napoleons become that it is hard to keep track of those of them that are not fortunate enough to have a Hanna of their own who understands the value of bureau of publicity.

CONGRESSMAN J. w. BAILEY, of Texas, who declined to stand as a candidate for reelection because he could not support Bryan's ad- ministration, in the event of his election, does not make the source of his disagreement with the bril- liant nominee for President very clear. Mir. Bailey is a strong sil- yer man, which is the predominant idea in this campaign, and if we are not mistaken, changed his vote along with the rest of the Texas delegation from Bland to Bryan on the fifth ballot for President taken by the late Chicago convention. In his address to his constituency MT. Bailey says: The National convention of our party has nom mated as our candidate for the Presidency a gentleman with whom l disagree so widely in re- spect to certain fundamental prin- ciples of government that if he
 
 shoud be chosen president and I should be returned to congress, my frequent and serious disagree ments with his administration would be inevitable 3 But Mir. Bailey does not state what these fundamental principles are. He declares, however, that he will support the nominee, but does not undertake to explain the consist eney of his course in supporting the nominee while declining to stand for Congress on the grounds that he could not support MT. Bryan's administration. MT. Bailey should explain himself more understandingly.

Altered the water Tanks to Satisfy the
 Englishmen.
 Howard Gould, who is living on his steam yacht on the Clyde, has given his version of the recent unpleasantness with English yachtsmen. He said:
 A committee of yachtsmen was sent here awhile ago to examine my boats water tanks. They chose the time for their visit while I was absent i'll Lon don. Then they wanted to alter them, although they were precisely the same as they were last summer, when l raced 50 times. 1 wrote to them that would make the alteration for the sake of har- mony and for no other reason, which was perfectly true, for did not wish to withdraw from all the contests and create i'll feeling.
 Besides I wanted to show that the new rule of measurement did not turn out boats as seaworthy as those built under last years rule. l am glad to say that the summary methods employed by certain members of the council have been severely condemned by a great many representative English yachts men. Nevertheless notice am getting criticised ill various American newspa- pers because I continued to race after what had happened. New York Jour-

 Write Dispatches to Certain Papers.
 There never was q convention where there was such rivalry among the apos ties of the new journalism" to attract attention to themselves. The Sun has told of some of the schemes that have been Hesorted to. The latest one Is said to be huge sign which is now being paintes. 1t Is all invitation to the gen. eral public tD come in and see the great journalists writing piece for the paper. ''Oome one, come all, and see our 19 telegraph instruments ill operation all at the same time :" The fact that this sign was being painted and would be displayed reached the ears of one of the rival papers today. This paper has 8 galaxy of stars writing for it. The manager called his staff together and it was agreed that the two best known men oil it should have desks in the show windows of the headquarters, beginning i'll the morning, and should write their pieces there in the presence of the crowd that would assemble on the sidewalk. The desks are to be labeled with the names of the writers.
 This news in tTlrn reached the head quarters of the other paper, and there was a consultation of the members of the staff of that paper. It was agreed that the situation was serious. It was not until late hour that the idea sug- gested itself which, when carried out, will undoubtedly settle the hash Of the other fellows. It is to secure a complete Roentgen apparatus, set it up on the show window, and turn the light on the. head of the greatest member of the staff. whe will be placed ill the window at the desk to write his piece fer the paper,
 When this is done. the public will be treated to a view of the brain of the great man when it Is in operation. It is believed by the members of the staff of this paper that the scheme puts them promptly in advance of all competition. The news of what is to be done has not yet reached the camp of the rival. It was given to The Sun reporter on con- dition that it should be printed only i'll New York. New York Sun.

TIE small towns of Jefferson county are doing a noble part to- ward the GRAPHIc's forthcoming special edition. The towns of Redfeld and Sherrill will be rep resented almost to a man in that edition, and re doubt the other towns of the county will do like wise when visited. There is no envious feeling among the citizens of the smaller towns of the county against Pine Bluff, which does great credit to the intelligence, public spirit and progressiveness of our rural friends, neighbors and customers. All share in the glory and pride of Pine Bluff and Jeff erson county, and stand ready to heartily join in any movement calculated to advance their inter- ests. This is laudable and as it should be.

TIE dispatches bear another instance of the fidelity and loyal ty of a dumb brute to its master. Out in Iowa the other day vic ious bull made an attack upon a farmer when the latter's dog caught the enraged animal by the throat and held the bull long enough to allow the farmer to escape. The dog lost his life but the farmer survived. And yer there are some men so brutal as to kick dog at every opportunity. If some dogs were men and some men were dogs, perhaps the world would be all the better for 1t.

CONSCIENCE HIS TYRANT.
Woes of a Young Man Who Always Full

Woes of q Young Man Who Always Full
filed HIS Promises.
There was an anxious, doubtful look
on the young fellows face as he paced
up and down the aisle in Broadway
cable car the other evening. There
were half a dozen seats, yet the young
man took no notice of them, and con-
tinued his restless pacing to and fro.
says the New York Herald.
Seats in front, plenty of 'em," said
the conductor, brusquely.
The young man continued his patrol.
A benevolent old gentleman pulled
him by the coat and said: "Here's a
seat, sir" The young man shook his
head,
A newcomer entered the car, and, be-
ing an altogether officious person,
pointed to the vacant seats. The young
man still walked.
"Hello, Henry!" exclaimed a. dapper
young fellow, an acquaintance of the
peripatetic, who just then bounced
into the car. "Why don't you sit down? =?
What in the world makes you walk up
and down like that?''
conscientious scruples," said the
young pedestrian. "You see, promised
her that 1 would walk down to the
florist and get some roses for her. I
would much have preferred to ride, you
know. It's hot and dusty, and so I'm
compromising with myself by walking
and riding at the same time"
He turned on his heel and passed up
the car.

LINCOLN'S EASY-GOING WAY.
He Would Consent to Be Swindled Rather
Than Contest a Fee.

He Would Consent to BE Swindled Rather
Than Contest Fee.
The fee which Lincoln received in
the Mccormick case, including the re-
tainer, which was $50O-the largest re-
tainer ever received by Lincoln
amounted to nearly $4,000. Except the
sum paid him by the Illinois Central
railroad, it was probably the largest
fee he ever received. The two sums
came to him about the same time, and
undoubtedly helped to tide over the
rather unfruitful period, from a tinan-
cial standpoint, which followed-the
period of his contest with Douglass for
the senate. Lincoln never made money.
From 1850 to 1860 his income aver
aged from $4,000 to $4,000 a year. In
the forties it was considerably less.
The fee book of Lincoln & Herndon for
1874 shows total earnings of only 81 800.
The largest fee catered was one of
S100, There are several of $50, num-
Der of $50, more of $40, still more of $5,
and a few of SO.
If fee was not paid Lincoln did not
believe in suing for it. Mr.. Herndon
says he would consent to be swindled
before he would contest fee. The
case of the Illinois Central railroad,
however, was an exception to this rule.
He was careless in accounts, never en-
tering anything on the book. When
fee was paid to him he simply divided
the money into two parts, one of which
he put into his pocket, and the other
into an envelope which he labeled
'Herndon's half" Lincoln whole the
ory of the conduct of lawyer in re-
gard to money is summed up in the
notes" for law lecture which he left
among his papers.
"The matter of fees is important far
beyond the question of mere bread and
butter involved. Properly attended to,
fuller justice is done to both lawyer
and client. An exorbitant fee should
never be claimed. AS general rule,
never take your whole fee in advance,
nor any more than a small retainer.
When fully paid beforehand, you are
more than a common mortal if you can
feel the same interest in the case as if
something was still in prospect for you
as well as for your client. And
when you lack interest In the
case the job will very likely
lack skill and diligence in the perform
ance, Settle the amount of fee and
take note in advance. Then you will
feel that you are working for some
thing, and you are sure to do your
work faithfully and well. Never sell
