A HOSPITAL FOR OAKLAND.
Final Arrangements Completed for the
EstablsilInen OF a Sanitorium for
the Town.

Establishment OF a Sanitoriun for
the Town.
A long felt need is soon to be real (.
lied.
We are informed that the Delawder
house, on Second street, has been
rented for the purpose of opening a
sanitOrium which will he in readiness
for the reception of patients about
Dec list. All the necessary convent
ences and sanitary requirements have
been purchased and will be arranged
according to the most modern and
improved methods. The primary OBJ
ject of the sanitOrium is the estab-
lishment of a building set apart and
scientifically equipped with all things
needful to furnish the means whereby
a patient under care of a com
petent nurse and attended by the best
medical skill can make the most rapid
recovery. The entire house will be
open to all physicians DESTROYS Of plac-
ing their patients where they will
have special advantages of good
sanitorium. Miss Nellie Browning,
graduate of Mercy Hospital, Chicago,
ILL.,, skillful and competent nurse,
will have charge of that department
with DIR. w. H. McComas, physician
in charge; Dr. NJ. G. Hinebaugh, assist
ant attending physician, and DgA j
L. McComas and w. H. Ravenscrpft,
special consulting physicians. All
surgical cases in the sanitorium viii
be in touch with the most able physi
clans in the State of Maryland. All
diseases will be Observation-Disclosures of
women speciality.
The original plan and design of the
sanitOrium was begun by DR.. W. H.
McCOmas, who intends to increase the
facilities commensurate with the
needs and demands of the people
His natural skill and superior medical
knowledge, together with his years of
successful practice, well fit him for
the task undertaken. Together with
his able corps of assistants before
named we do not see why this should
not prove a very valuable and useful
addition to our town. 1t is certainly
amost worthy enterprise and deserves
the hearty endorsement and earnest
cooperation of the citizens of Oak
land to make it a substantial and us
full factor in our midst
Let us profit by past experience aud
not work to discourage and defeat
every enterprise or industry that
comes our way. This will prove a
renumerative boon and a blessing
Recognizing it to be a good thing let
every intelligent and we'll wishing
person have word of encouragement
and bespeak for the worthy aim
heartfelt desire that it may prove q
permanent and abiding success.
Patients will receive better care
than they could possibly have at
their homes, and we understand the
rates will be very reasonable. A.
healthful climate, pure, refreshing
and invigorating atmosphere, com
bined with scientific treatment both
in medicine, skill and nursing, will
make this enterprise great success.

ARE FROZEN HERRING DuTIABLE
Massachusetts Statesmen, Lawyers and
 Merchants Argue the Question

Washington, Jan. B. Senator Lodge and Representative Moody of Massa- ch1setts, Collector Warren of Boston. Messrs, Rich and Treat, merchants. and Messrs. w. D. Sahier, Eugene P. Carver and ex-Appraiser Dodge, law yers, of the same city, argued before Assistant Secretary Howell for an hour today on the subject of frozen herring. They were divided on the question whether fish frappe should be admitted free of duty or made du- tiab1e at the raise of one-quarter of a cent per pound. Collector Richard son of the port of Gloucester, Mass, will come to Washington tomorrow to argue for free entry. The controver portant one.
 Frozen herring have been brought into the parts of Boston and Glou- cester by Massachusetts fishermen for the last forty years, and no tax had been levied on them until recently. Thsn the appraiser in Boston declared that the fish were not entitled to free entry as the product of American fish cries under the tariff law. He repre- sented that they were bought on the coast of Newfoundland. from native fishermen, and therefore constitute a foreign material imported into this country. The importers or buyers of the herring explain that though the Massachusetts shippers pay for the herring by the barrel, they pay this as wages to the Canadian fishermen who are employed by them.

 A man in this town was last nigh commissioned to attend to business matter on which a great deal depend ed. He was foolishly entrusted with the matter because he was apparently sober, quite abnormal condition. But the whole business was failure; it fell through, and when the catastro- phe was made known to one of th2 principals he inquired with prelimi- nary profanity: ssDid he go and get drunk?"

HOW HE GOT HIS EITHER.

A musical instr ument dealer tells d good story at the expense of musical ly-inclired and wealthy resident of the little Missouri town of Hermann, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Some time ago he wanted a fine zither and searched the local market for one that would suit him. The time he spent was of sufficient value to pay for an or dinary instrument, and yet he did not succeed in getting anything that quite satisfied him. Confident that there was nothing in this country that would an- swer, he wrote to European dealers, and finally ordered one that he thought would go ahead of anything ever seen in this section.
 His friends were all posted and await ed the arrival of the instrument in anxious expectancy. It came a few Jays ago, and the package was careful ly opened in the presence of half dozen admiring friends. The zither was d beauty, there was no mistaking that, but on closer examination there was the makers stamp indelibly placed on the frame, and it read: Washington, -'Ao.s O' A,. ~Ass O iiCiS LOW Il Ol Hermann. The gentleman might have saved $50, in addition to the express and import charges, and have avoided all tue waiting which he had to en- dure. But he would lever have been satisfied.
 M The zsCher is an expensive instrument and difficult to manufacture, being very delicate and requiring the best of ma terial and most skillful of workmen. but dealers say it is a fact that the man. ufacturers of this country make the best ones placed on the market. There are but three factories in this country. one in this state and two in the east. Their instruments are largely sold in Europe. some of them without being branded, and then sent back to this country at prices 10O per cent. above what they should be. The ocean trips may improve them, but the Hermann gentleman cannot see just where it comes in.

An Appropriated Opinion

(Rison Bazoo9
 The Pine Bluff GRAPHIC has an- nounced it's intention of not sup porting Maj. Mccoy for Sheriff of that county, We are a strong be- liever in sticking to the nominees, but in this case we believe the GRAPHIC is right. We know noth- ing of the two contestants for the Sheriff's office of Jefferson county, and hence are not preiudice6 for or against the claims oi either party. We have read the evidence on both sides as it appeared in the papers, and are honestly of the opinion that Mai. Mccoy is not the legal nomi. nee of the party. We believe great and palpable fraud has been perpe- trated upon the people of Jefferson county. The only way to show a disapproval is not toleave the party, but to repudiate such acts of dis honesty at the ballot box If it is not done, the same disregard for the rights of others and the purity Of the ballot box will continue. When it is known that such acts will be repudiated at the polls it will stop, and not till then.

were resorted 10 to obtain political preferment, and as 8 result, "many good men, for tfis reason, are los. ing interest ia their most sacred right.
 We have already witnessed in this county the fulGllment of this proph. esy. The will of fhe people having been set aside and thwarted, the people @are losing interest in their most sacred rights, and are already asserting that "i5s no use to vote our votes won't be counted.
 This is 9 sad and lamentable com mentary upon our civilization, and presages moral, political and intel lectuaI decay. The hand of Gisinte- grafton and disaster ean only be stayed by rebukiag such methods at the polls and hurling the authors of them from everlasting power.

A PrOnileSV.

In an article in the Campaign Edition of the GRAPHIC, issued on April 24 1898, and before the first primary, Mir. ". B. Sorrells, the present nominee for Prosecuting Attorney, used this language, which was prophetic:
 Ut is sad reflection that in the physical, moral and intellectual ad- vancement of this age, politics is not upon higher plane, Every campaign is fraught itb scram- ble unoecoming this progressive age. All kinds of poll tical schemes and artifces are often resorted to to obtain political preferment. Many good men, for this reason, are losing interest Tn their most sa. cred rights.
 This suggestion should be taken to a quiet aud uninterrupted hour, and weighed with sober, serious re- ttection. l may be wrong; If so, there are others who are deceived When candidates are measured by high standards of moral worth, when he who seeks office must win upon merit and integrity, then shall that low order of politics "take sepulchre forever in the realms of everlasting night;' then shall the confidence begotten Of fidelity fan the flame of human love and raise the standard of civil liberty among mankind,"
 How prophetic were the words, written in advance of the primaries. In these very primaries. .'all kinds of political schemes and artifees ssyrsa.-----sslsss.. sszasr

History May Repeat Itself

In 1893 the Democrats Of the City of Pine Bluff held prim ary election for the nominasio of a candidate for Mayor. A committee was appoin- ted to govern the same, and because of it's arbitrary action in arranging a snap primary, there was great dis sention and division.
 After the primary petition was circulated calling on DC. Bell to make the race as an independent candidate, in order to give the people an opportunity to register their protest asainst the snap meth- ods. At the city elections Mir. Bell received triumphant majority over the regular democratic Domi nee. During the present county campaign the people witnessed 'all sorts of snap and dark lantern con- ventions. Following these cane the action of 8 partisan committee which set aside lhe judgment ard selection of the democratic voters of tke county as registered in two primary elections, aud by unfair methods bestowed the honor and the nomination upon another. Now the people are again calling on May or Bell by petition to stand as a candidate for Sheriff in order to register their pro- test against the unfair and un. serupulous methods employed in the Mccoy campaign, and for the future interests of the democratic party, to correct and rebuke tbe same. And it would not be surpris- ing if local political history should repeat itself with Mayor Bell again the leader.
