FOR CONGRESS:
B L A L r L e E,
OF MONTGOMERY COUNTY.
MIR. BLAIR LEE FOR CONGRESS.

MR. BLAIR LEE FOR CONGRESS.
The Democratic Congressional Conven.
ton which assembled in Oakland on Thurs.
day of last week unanimously nominated
Mr.. Blair Lee, of this county, as the Demo
cratic candidate for Congress from the Sixth
Congressional District Of Maryland. In the
selection of Mr.. Lee for this distinguished
position, and the graceful and enthusiastic
manner in which it was done, the conven
ton "did itself proud"
Mr.. Lee, though comparatively young
man, is no stranger to our people, and if his
nomination has fallen as surprise in any
section of the county, it has been most &C.
ceptable and agreeable one. Springing from
an influential and historic family of Mont
gomery, the only child of Rear Admiral Lee
the late Francis p. Blair, OF Silver Spring,
this county, and the nephew of the late Hon.
Montgomery and Francis p. Blair, Jr., he
has from his cradle to the present hour been
identified with our people. Admitted to the
bar at an early age, family prestige, strength
ened by rare force OF character, varied &C.
complishments and well. grounded knowl-
edge OF the law, soon placed him on the
road to professional eminence, which seems
to have been and still is In full harmony
with bis desire and taste.
Whilst not politician, in the ringing,
hustling sense of the word, he has ever been
a consistent, courageous and determined
Democrat. Not chronic Office seeker-not
trimmer-not palterer but man !
Modest in the force of courage Earnest in
the spirit of unselfshness. Resolute in the
growth of a logical conviction. Bold in the
path where duty pointed.
In full harmony with the Chicago plat
form, thoroughly conversant with the great
issues it has set forth, and able to explain
and defend the same before the people, leads
us to the assertion that his selection as the
Democratic Congressional standard bearer
in the great struggle, now confronting us,
was a wise and safe one-more than this, it
was fortunate one for the people and the
party whose confidence he so deeply and
strongly holds.
The Democracy OF Montgomery county
will show its appreciation of this distn-
guished compliment to its young and favor
ed son in November next And we say in
all earnestness and candor to the free men
of the mountains, to the strong men of the
mines, those men who delve deep down un
der the earth where Gods sunlight hath
never shown-to the men of the fields, to
the men Of the workshops and the factories,
Montgomery will do her duty--see that you
do yours II he wins, yours will be the
gain. If you allow him to fail, his modest
virtues will "plead like angels, trumpet
tongued, against the deep damnation of his
taking off"

MR.. HARREsoNs SPEECH.

Elk President Harrison began his speech
10 New York on the evening of the 9th
ultimo, by saying: Ladies' and gentlemen,
i'm on the retired list" Had he stopped
there, all would have been WE'LL but he was
foolish enough to continue that this condi-
ton was by a desire to give tie young men
chance, and that he might have rest
Mr.. Harrison omitted to add that this rest,
given him by the country, had greatly an.
noyed him, and that he had squirmed when
informed that we had no use for gentle.
man who could be hidden under his grand.
fathers hat after the manner of Tom Thumb
Mr.. Harrison was our small-man Presi.
dent, and he has passed out OF politics be.
cause he has always been too small to cope
with the situation.
One of Mr.. Harrison's pathetic utterances
was ~ am not a soured, disappointed or
bedridden citizen. My interest in my coun-
try did not cease when my last salary check
was cashed." Very true-for Mr.. Harrison
would have given grandfather's hat to be
President again. But the interest of the
country ceased in Mr.. Harrison long before
he cashed his last salary check, and his effort
at New York before the people as an orator
and statesman cannot be called successful
one.
What Mr. Harrison said in this speech
contains nothing that can make powerful
or lasting impression on the public, and
many OF those Democrats who were present
could hardly have relished his appeal to his.
tory to prove that Democracy was calculated
to accomplish the downfall OF the people,
for, if this be so, hal! the people of the
United States are arrayed IN opposition to
the interest of the nation.
He made an effort to defend the Supreme
Court. 1t was feeble, common place and
unconvincing.
The distinguished speaker spared his au
dience any discussion of the tariff, which
Mckinley declares To be the leading ques.
ton of the hour, stating that debate had
been won and need not be protracted.--
This was an error, as Mr.. Harrison was de.
feated strictly on tariff issue
Mr.. Harrison, however, paused when be
came to the silver question. 1t would have
been great deal better for his reputation
had he omitted any detailed comments, Tor
he simply shows that he is willfully igno-
rant on the subject. He said:
1.-The silver question-what is il? Do you
want silver because we want more money,
a larger circulating medium? l have not
heard anybody say 30. Mr.. Bryan is not
urging il upon that basis. II anybody were
10 seek 10 give that as a reason for wanting
free silver he would be very soon conlound
ed by the statement that free silver would
Ipt more gold out Of circulation than the

4 SPECI4L EDITION

In the course of a few weeks the GRAPHIC will issue a special edition setting forth the resources and business, industrial and professional interests of Pine Bluff and sur rounding towns. Over 7,500 copies of this edition will be issued and circulated in Jefferson and sur rounding counties. A full account of the enterprise will be found elsewhere in this issue, and We hope this progressive movement will re- ceive the patronage it deserves.
 For this special edition the services of Mr. Hal. David, who is well known in the southern news paper world, have been secured. Mr. David has recently been em- ployed in this line of labor on sew eral Texas dailies, his latest achiey- ment being mammoth special edi- tion of the Galveston Trfbaae, q copy of which can be seen at this office. Other papers on which he has been employed in the same line of work are the Fort Worth Ga- zette, San Antonio Lfght, Fort Smith Elecator, Texarkana Democrat, Shreveport Gaaeasiaa and other newspapers well known in the south. His descriptive powers are far above the average and his expe- rience makes him a valuable adjunct to any newspaper undertaking so herculean task.
 It has been several years since an edition of this kind has been issued by any newspaper in this city, and the present time seems to us to be most opportune for such an enter prise.
 The GRAPHIC is ever progressive and enterprising, and we hope to make this special edition a credit to the GRAPHIC and Pine Bluff.

no novice even in the beginning Knowing Mr. SIoan's abilities and talents, We expect him to fulfill to the fullest measure the hopes of h s friends, and we expect yet greater things of him in the future.
 The other members of the ticket are "hold-overs, and need no intro duction to the people or words of commendation at our hands. Indi- vidually and collectively their re- nomination is ample evidence of their abilities and fitness to eff ciently discharge the duties of their espective offices in a satisfactory manner to the people.
 Altogether the State ticket is an exceptionally strong one, and will prove satisfactory to the Democratic masses of Arkansas. The ticket should be elected in September by an increased Democratic majority.

THE STATE TICKET.

The Arkansas Democratic State Convention of 1896 will soon be a memory. In many respects it was remarkable convention-uuprec- edented in numbers, remarkable in it's proceedings and remarkable in the number ofyoung men who par ticiDated in it's deliberations.
 The ticket nominated is above the average, and in several instances
 very superior to the ordinary in ad- ministrative capacity, talent and ability The nominee for Cover nor, Col. Dan W. Jones, is fully up to the average in gubernatorial ability and is not without experience in public affairs. He has served two terms as Attorney General of the State and one term in the Legisla- ture, and is therefore familiar with the statutes of the State and the duties of the Chief Execu- tive. The large vote he re- ceieved shows that he was the choice of an overwhelming majority of the Democrats of Arkansas, and we have no doubt that he will give the people of this State a clean, pro
 gressive and honest administration.
 MT. Alex c. Hull, the nominee for Secretary of State, has received a reward he has justly earned. Four years ago he was a candidate for this position but was defeated by a small majority. When he entered the field this year it was early ap- parent that he would be the nominee. The writer has known Mir. Hull in- timately for the last teny earls, and we know him to be maa well fitted and qualified for the position for which he has been nominated. Mr. Hull will make an excellent State Secretary; Tn fact, the State has never had better one in the past.
 The Auditors office will be in very capable and competent hands, for in MT. Clay Sloan the people of Ark ansas will find an intelligent. com petent and efficient public servant who will look carefully after details and give that office an efficient and business administration, the like of which it has not had in several years. Mir. Sloan as chairman of the com on auditors and treasurers books in the House and Senate for the last six years is a!ready familiar with the duties and details of the Auditors office, and he will prove

THE MEMPHIS AND PINE BLUFF BASE BALL TEAMS HAVE
 IT OUT.
An Interesting Game at Jones Park Largely Attended and Greatly Enjoyed The Visitors
 Entertained.
It came. it saw, it conquered.

It came, it saw, it conquered.
 That's just what the Fandango Base Bah Club, of Memphis, did. The members of that team arrived on the south bound Cotton Belt train, with blood in their eyes, Sun day morning. Sunday afternoon they put blood in the "Other fel- lows" eyes.
 The rooters rooted.
 The fans waved, but it availed nothing.
 Our boys did all they could.
 They even raised a wind and dust storm, but those Memphis boys found that ball just the same, and batted it, too, unmercifully. Pine Bluff players did thesame. Of course, dust didn't make any difference to them. It was their speciality.
 Jones Park has seldom been filled with a more interested or more fashionable crowd of base ball en- thusiasts than that which witnessed the game yesterday afternoon. The high social standing of these who slugged and slid on each side, made the event particularly interesting The score was something terrific IS to 3l, in favor of the visitors That did not make any difference. It was the Memphis people, and not the game. after all, that made the affair one long to be remembered. They were welcomed yesterday as they will ever be in future, with open hearts and hands. A more gentle manly and cordial set of fellows never took issue with a Pine Bluff club and their return will be looked forward to with pleasurable anticl- patton.
 Those of the visiting team were Messrs. Henry Bauer, Bert Simon, sam Fultz, Fred Fuld, Nathan Seesel, Carl Roetscher. Joe Hatten- dolf, Albert Hattendolf, Dave Morris, j ue Goldbaum and Henry Ielner.
 Pine Bluffs would-be invencibles were. Messrs. Sam and Ben Frank lin. Joe Meyer, Willie Miller, Harry and sam Solmson, John Baldwin Will Hutt and Walter Ager.
 The sponsor for the Memphians was Miss Jessie Seesel; for Pine Bluff, Miss Josie Bluthenthal. who enter tained the visitor at her home on Fifth avenue last night.
 Mir. Foney Neiderweiser was brave enough to act as umpire.
 The visitors left fer their homes last night, much to the regret of all hose who had the pleasure of meet ng them.

SOME of the prominent free silver press and advocates are urging the nomination of Senator Henry NJ. Teller, of Colorado, by the Demo cratic convention for President. The Democrats of the country should remember their experiment in nominating Horace Greeley, a rabid Republican, for the Presiden- cy in 1872. A Republican never looks well at the head of Demo era tic ticket.

THE following paragraph from the Hot Springs Ne,es will be apprecia- ted by those who attended the late State Democratic Convention and witnessed the efforts of Jerry South and George Mansfield to stampede the convention to Bland early in the proceedings;
 The Hon. Jerry South may be solid enough to stampede a Lone Fork township meeting, but when the stalwart Sampson of Baxter at tempted to walk off with the State convention, he was us powerless as. if shorn by some Delilahs razor.
