taken on all the state offices. Harrod

sociate justice. AT the county conven-
ton, however, the delegates to the
state convention were instructed for
Bryant for chief justice and McFarlane
gard to instructions for the other Of
fees although the people had clearly
expressed their preferences. as Bry-
ant and McFarlane are both from Sc
bastian county it is thought that some
over jealous friends of these candidate
possibly engineered the move to pre-
vent other instructions. In speaking
Of the matter the Arkansas Democrat
very properly says: 1T is to be hoped
that the failure of the Sebastian coun-
ty convention to instruct for Harrod,
Hull and other candidates who received
majority OF votes in the primaries,
was an oversight. BY every rule of rea
son and of right these gentlemen are rs
much entitled to the vote of Sebastian
county as those who received the form

tion as the choice OF the democracy.
The Democrat does not doubt that the
will of the majority OF the democrats

tie state convention. No other con-
clusion would be reasonable. At the
same time the matter should be set at
rest 10y prompt expression by the del.
