HOW TO T0TE.

Notwithstanding the the much abused and the oft misrepres ented Arkansas election law, the process of voting is comparatively easy. It is, indeed, much less complicated than many of the secret ballot laws in force in other States throughout the Union. It only requires a little thought and intelligence to vote the ticket in this State, and if the elector can read aad write, all he has to do is to call on cue of the election judges to make out his ticket for him.
 In tbis election there are eight
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1896-11-01

Presidential electors and one Con- gressman to vote for. The electors who will vote for Bryan have "Demo. Pop. Fusion printed just to the right of the electors name on the ballot. The electors who will vote for Bryan are J. R. Sovereign, J. B. Baker, Joseph M. Stayton, Gibson Witt, E. B. Arnold, R. J. White, Walter s. Moore and A. D. Tanner. These are the fusion elec- tors agreed on by the Democratic State Central and Popullst Commit tees. Five of these are Democrats and three are PopuIists. If they are elected (of which there is no doubt) all will vote for Bryan for President, while three will vote for Watson and five for Sewal for Vice President. In the event no one of the candidates for Vice President should receive 224 elec- toral votes, the required number to elect, the election will be thrown into the United States Senate, where selection must be make from the two leading candidates. This, of course, would mean either Hobart or Sewall, and there IS no danger but what, in that event, that the latter would be elected.
 The ticket as prepared for next Tuesday, contains tho names of six teen candidates for Presidential electors. As we have before stated, only eight of these can be chosen. Therefore, it behooves every voter to not vote for more than eight electors. Should he vote for more than eight, his ballot will be thrown out.
 Voting for Congressman is equally important. There are but two names on the ticket for that office, one marked "Democrata and the other Republican. Any man who can read can, therefore, vote for a Congressman without any difficulty.

officers Elected for fhe Ensuing Term
 Splendid Musical Organization.
The Pine Bluff Glee Club. at it's

The Pine Bluff Glee Club, at it's regular meeting last Friday night, held an election of officers for the ensuing term of four months, which resulted os follows: M F. Tread- well, President; |. J. Smith, Vice President; c. s. Valiant, Seefetarr; R. L. Atkinson, Treasurer; 0. K. ". Tomaszewski, Librarian; Y. ". Ware, R. D. Valiant and W. J. Kelly, Executive Committee. The club is in fourishing condition, and, in connection with the Ladies Betboven Club, expect to to give several public concerts during the season. It has a membership of about thirty; meets twice Q week Tuesday and Friday evening, and is instructed in sight reading and chorus singing.
 About once a month the two clubs, the ladies and the gen5Iemen's, meet together, when the voices of the two blend harmoniously. By able and faithful service the musical director, Prof E. s. Luce, has built up the club from Q bership of seven or eight in the summer to the present membership Of thirty.
 Already, quartetts are being formed among the members, and it is expected that the effect of the Glee Club will soon be felt through the Church choirs and musical cir cles of the city.

nected with his nomination; h.s eX- traordinary power of human endur- alce; his matchless and magnificent campaign; his eloquenee and power of persuasion; his oyerpowering logic and complete mastery of all the arts of the orator-all of these have combined to make a remarka- ble and a marvellous man-the rare product of century, His fereads like a romance and his achievements like one inspired and called to fulfill a mighty purpose. As Abraham Lincoln was raised up out of the wilderness of Illinois to release four million people from the bonds of human slavery, so may it transpire that Wm. J. Bryan was raised up out the prairies of Nebraska to re- lease seventy million of people from a financial dependence, which, if continued, would ultimately lead to serfdom.
 As Abraham Lincoln was opp posed by an aristocratic and slave holding oligarcy, so is Wm J Bryan opposed by monied oligarcy an hundred fold more powerful than its predecessor of anti-belum days.
 The capacity of the people for ! Iself.goyernment, free from dieta- tioa and interference, seems to be one of the issues of this campaign. If the Presidency can be bought the people coerced and the ballot corrupted by the money power, then, indeed, are cur liberties in peril.
 la this campaign the Republican form of government is on trial. If the money power can prevail by a ! coereed or corrupted ballot, then can the decline of this glorious Re public be said to have begun.

Of all the remarkable men of the century, William J. Bryan is the most remarkable. View him from whatever point YOU may, and vet he is remarkable. Apply any test or standard you want, and he fills the bill. His early life and training; his rigid morality and personal con- duet throughout his youthful years, at time when human nature is prone to yield at least in some de gree to the alluring temptations Of
 this wicked world; the strict sobrie- ty of his habits and the recHtade of purpose his stuaiousness at school or college; his romantic marriage; his remarkable voice and delivery; the peculiar circumstances con
