THE Whitney Presidential boom which
was started in Mississippi the other day
was very short lived. 1t has been shown
that the fifteen members of the State
Senate who signed the call did so under
the impression that Whitney is in favor
of the free and unlimited coinage of
silver at a ratio of 16 to /, independent
of any other nation on earth. Missis-
sippi is the strongest free silver state in
the South and much was the surprise
when it was announced the other day
that the Democracy over there wanted
Whitney, one of the soundest of sound
money men, to be their candidate for
the Presidency. 1t is quite evident that
some heartless goldbug has been playing
a practical joke on the members of the
Mississippi legislature.

CUT DOWN THE COTTON CROP.
Address of the Cotton Growers Pro.
tectIYe Association Of Arkansas.

At meeting of the Cotton Growers
Protective Association of Arkansas,
held at Little Rock, February 12, 1896,
the following address to the cotton
growers of the State was authorized to
be published. Many of the leading
cotton growers were present and unani
mously indorsed the policy advocated in
the address:
To the Cotton Growers of Arkansas:
1t is proper to state, perhaps, for the
benefit of those who have not kept up
with this movement, that this associ
alton is the outgrowth of the Cotton
Growers Protective Association of
America. - which held its second
annual meeting in the city Of Memphis
January 21. 1895. Your committee
appointed to prepare this address feel
they cannot better express the earnest
desire of our association and meet SC
well the exigencies of the occasion than
by adopting in the main the recent
address of the Cotton Growers Pro
tective Association of America, - which
is as follows:
1--WE again come to you with an
urgent appeal for co operative action in
planting the crop for 1895. It is a
matter of extreme congratulation that
the appeal made to you last year was so
generally responded to and that the crop
of 1895, made upon the diminished
acreage, has had the effect of greatly
increasing the price and bringing
prosperity to the country. The crop OF
1895, though estimated to be 3 400. O0O
bales short of the crop of 1891, was in
the markets of the world worth more by
nearly $50, 900, 900.
In the face of this result, to abandon
the idea of diminished acreage would be
10 sound the retreat in the face of
victory.
1T is the concensus of opinion among
the best thinkers that if by any means

held within the limits of 900, 600 bales
per annum for ten years, the people of
these Southern States would be the
richest and most prosperous agricultural
people in the world. How can this be
brought about1
The answer is with you. We appeal
to your self interest and to your patriot
ism to do all in your power to keep down
the production of the staple. Do not
abandon the ground you have won.
Fight on upon the lines laid down
make the Cotton States self supporting
put more land in clover and grasses for
your hogs to run on, diversity your
crops, and when you have done all this
the area devoted TO cotton will WELD
more profitable returns than if Won

primaries. The fire got beyond the

boys came out of the canvass with their
shirt tails on fire. Did you ever see

ARKANSAS has the distinction of being
the only state that cast the full vote of
her delegation for the free silver amend
ment to the bond bill. Her represent
atives voted as a unit. Congressman
Terry took a prominent part in the
debate during the closing hour preceding
the final vote. His spirited colloquy
with Mr.. Turner, of Georgia, called
forth prolonged applause from both the
House and galleries and congratulations
from his Democratic friends.

THE canvass for United States Senator
in Sebastian county, which ended on
Saturday last, passed off without a
rifle of unkindness between the
aspirants. This is just as all conten-
tions for Office between Democrats
should be, and the result is what might
have been expected when an un-
prejudiced Democracy had an oppor-
tunity to judge, face to face, between
the two candidates for the office.
Sebastian county has honored itself in
its pronounced majority of over three
hundred for James X. Jones.

WORD comes from Siberia that
Nansen, the Norwegian explorer, has
discovered the north pole and has found
land there. He is said to be ON his way
back to civilization. He is reported to
have nailed the Norwegian flag to the
pole and no one will dispute his right to
it unless gold should be discovered
there. In that event England would
want to extend a protectorate over it.

ATTORNEY E. w. WINFIELD has just
returned from business trip to Pike
and Clarke counties. He says he
circulated considerably among the
people of both counties and found only
two men who were opposed to Senator
Jones and they were disappointed
seekers for Federal Office.
That is what they all say. The
PEOPLE know when they have good
Senator and will not fool him away for
an uncertain quantity.
The Van Buren press., 1896-02-22

FROM Democratic standpoint Sen
ator Jones, of Arkansas, is one of the
biggest, broadest and most useful men
Arkansas has ever produced, and if the
Democrats of Arkansas intend to
measure men according to their deeds
and worth, his election to succeed him
self should not be even question for a
second sober thought by that party. -
The American Guide.
That is true, and from any standpoint
it is also true. There is not doubt
but that Senator Jones will succeed
himself.

THE latest attack on bicycle riders
comes in the form of decision on the
part of the Mutual Accident Insurance
Companies of the United States to raise
the rates of insurance on policies issued
to wheelmen. The insurance companies
contend that bicycle riders are twice
as hazardous as the preferred risks,
in which are men who drive horses that
sometimes run away, men who ride on
railroad trains that occasionally collide
or who sail on vessels such as have been
known to blow up or sink or go ashore.

THE House Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds has authorized
Mr.. Little to favorably report to the
House bill providing for the erection
of postoffice building at Hot Springs,
to cost $50 900. This bill, with others,
was some time ago favorably reported
by the committee, but it, with the
others, was cut down to $50, 900. To
this action Mr.. Little entered a vigorous
protest and secured an advance in the
appropriation to the amount above
stated.
