The Primaries.

In the opinion of the GRAPHIC, the Democratic County Central Com mittee acted wisely in fixing the date for the county primaries on the same date as that fixed for the State primaries-May the 7th. The de
 cree of the State Central Committee was mandatory, and since May the 7th was fixed upon as the day for voting for State officers, it was but
 fitting and proper that the county primaries should be set for the same day. It was observable during the proceedings of the County Central Committee that a majority of the country members were in favor of consolidating the primaries; also that they were in favor of May the 7th as the date for the county pri- maries. la their vote and action in this manner, they no doubt voiced and voted according to the senti
 ments of the people of their town ships. In such matters the country people should always be consulted.
 One day is as good as another so far as the convenience of the town people IS concerned. But it is not that way with the agricultural class  es, many of whom have to go sever al miles to get to ballot box. And the consolidation of the primaries will save them a day to their crops,

Priest of the Grand Chapter of the

Priest of the Grand Chapter of the Royal Arch Masons of Arkansas.
 As a citizen Mr. Grace has always held the high esteem of bls fellows. He has always been kind and oblig- ing to his friends, and upright and honorable in all his transactions.
 His Democracy is beyond ques- tion. He has always been loyal to his party and industrious and inde- fatigable in his efforts to advance the party's interests. h 1880 he was a sub-elector on the Hancock ticket and canYassed Southeastern Arkansas. He is at present the Secretary of the Board Of County Election Commissioners, a position he has held for the past three years. Although at all times a hard work ing Democrat, with one exception he has never before been an aspi- rant for remunerative office.
 Mir. Grace is pre-eminently auali- fled for the position to which he as- pires, and hls candidacy is therefore deserving the serious consideration of the Democratic voters through out the district.

county will generously bear. It is a weII-known and humiliating fact that there is not State office In Arkansas that pays a decent salary. In fact, the constableship of Vau- zine township is worth about as much in dollars and cents as the Governship. It would have there. fore been exceedingly penurious to have refused to place the names of State candidates upon the county ticket without the remittance of a fee.
 But the Democrats of Jefferson county are always generous and honorable, and that is why they are held in such high esteem by the State Democracy. In the above ac- tion they but maintained their no ble re. .utation, and we hope their good example will be followed by the other counties in the State.

Hon. A. B. Grace

The subject of this sketch author izes the GRAPHIC to make his an- nouncement as a candidate for Cir cult Judge of the Eleventh Judicial District, subject % the action of the Democratic primrries on May the 7th.
 MT A. B Grace is prominent member of the local bar and a highly esteemed citizen of Jefferson county. He was born in Tennessee and has been a citizen of Arkansas since 1861. He was admitted to the prac- tice of the law before the Pine Bluff bar Ia February, 1871, and since that time bas been connected, in one way or another, with nearly all the important civil cases coming be- fore the circuit court. He has a number of times been selected by his brother-lawyers as special judge to preside in cases where the pre- siding judge was absent or dlsouali- fled to act, and last November was appointed by Coy. Jones as a spe- cial judge on the State Supreme Bench to act in a case in which Jus tice Riddlck was disqualified. The aforesaid honors so often conferred  upon him bear ample testimony of his knowledge of the law, of his iu- dicial temperament and of his abili- ties to act as a presiding judge.
 Mr. Grace is also a prominent t Mason and has held the highest of flee within the gift of that organiza- tion. He has served as Grand Mas ter of the Masonic Grand Council and is at present the Grand High

Resumption Of Commercial Relations
With Spain Expected,
DISPOSITION OF The PHILIPPINES
Not Bound by the Treaty to
Retain Them.
RESTORATION IMPOSSIBLE

Senator Frye talked very interestingly to
Star reporter this morning with respect
to the conditions attending and resulting
from the peace negotiations, without en-
croaching upon the secrecy of the treaty.
With respect to the frequently repeated
statement in press dispatches that the SEN
timent of the powers. with the exception
Of England, was opposed to the United
States and looked with disfavor upon the
attitude of this government in dealing with
Spain. Senator Frye said:
4 saw no evidence of such sentiment
existing outside of France, and in France
that sentiment appeared TO be confined to
the press, which does not reflect the senti-
ment of the nation nor of the people gen.
orally. The character of the French press
is not such as to render its expressions rep
resentative or influential. The treatment
the American commissioners received from
the representatives of the French govern
mept. officials and business men was cor
dial 1t could not have been more so. and
among them | saw 10 evidence of hostile
feeling. l had long talk with prominent
business men who called on me to discuss
