THE LIMIT OF LIFE.

The scientists tells LIS that man, born of healthy parents, and living sensibly, should greet his hundred and twentieth birthday with d sound mind and body. The numerous instances of longevity would seem to make this statement possible Centenarians are by no means uncommon, and the pe- culiarity of these IS that they seem to preserve their mental vigor al- most to the end. The four famous contemporary poets of this century the English Tennyson and Brown ing, and the American Whittier and Lowell-exhibited few signs of decay at the top" in the last years of their long lives. Indeed, Tennyson's latest poems were dis tinguished by power of thought and imagination stronger, If more somber. than his earlier efforts.
 The instance of Gladstone is fresh in every mind. Many of the noted English novelists, both men and women, are doing their best work .now in their lengthening shadows of septuagenarianism.
 The time when man Is "old and past the time of active enjoy mcut ana usefulness, Aas moved down on the scale of life fully twenty years since the days when children $ school readers bid Us, "Sec this aged man and woman, sitting in the door of their home, looking at the children play. They are very old they have seen sixty years of life. ''
 A noted English physician says, that from hundred to hundred and twenty years is the natural age of man, because. as science teaches us, the longevity of an animal is five to six times the period requir- ed to reach maturity. Twenty years are required for the full growth of man; therefore five or six times twenty IS his natural age. Unnatural habits, improper food, foolish exposure, worry, and lack of control over the emotions, are the causes that cut short the thread of life. How many years of use full work and development are we thus deprived of What possibili- ties of discoveries in science, art, and literature !-Selected.

THE PLATFORM.

The Democratic party of Arkansas nt its renewed it's allegiance to tho time honored principles of the party and declares as fol- Aws;
 We endorse the national platform of the ssemoerstic party adopted at Chicago in its national convention of f8a6 and reafifrm the principles therein enunciated
 We recognize the Monroe doctrine as a cardinal tenent of the democratic party and psrt of public policy of the national gov srnlnent and inv 1T its strict observance.
 Regarding that the WAT now being waged by the United States with Spain is for the purpose of maintaining the national honor ad to assist an oppressed people strug- gling for liberty, We note with pride the prnnptness with which all sections of our common country have responded to the call for men and means for its prosecution, and pledge the demncratie parry of Arkansas to an endorsement of all necessary measures so bring i, to successful, speedy and ;ri- umphant conclusion.
 Believing that the resources and taxing power of the United States are sufficient to defray the expenses of the successful proseeu- tion ol the WAT, we are opposed to the is suance of interest bearing bonds for that purpose at the present time.
 We are in favor of the United States gov ernment building and constructing the Nica- ragua canal, and that it shall own, control and manage the same.
 We favor the creation of a railroad com mission to supervise and regulate the opera Sion of railroads within the limits of the state. and recommend the democratic voters to sup | port at the September election amendment | No. to the constitution.
 We favor the improvement of the public highways of the state and tie adoption of amendment No. to the constitution
 Regarding with pride and satisfaction the successful development of our public school | system. we pledge the democratic party to 's perpetual support and maintenance.

Elder C. w Caldwell, m old and popular resident of this sec ton, died, of congestion, at his home about eight miles west of Hamburg, on Monday night last. tie was apparently about fifty years of age, good citizen, kind friend and neighbor, and for many years the leading spirit in the Primitive Baptist denominations in this county. We have known him as friend for the past eight or ten years, and always ionnd in him an honest man, endeavoring to live right in all the relations of life. His death caused q vacancy in his church that will be hard to ill, and he will be sadly missed by d large circle of friends, i'll this and adjoining counties, who knew and loved him as a faithful work CT in the church of his choice.- Ashley Go.

 The few populists remaining in Drew county would do we'll to ob- serve the drift of things and jump aboard the old Democratic band wagon before it is cverlastingly too late.
The Monticellonian., 1898-09-02

About two months ago the Populist candidates for county offices, astonished the natives with a bold proclamation that they would begin a public .can- vass of the county on the 18th of August, and called upon the voters to turn out, in order that they might vote intelli- gently" but the voters afore- said, either believing the Popu- lists incompetent to instruct them, or were indifferent as to their learning, pretty generally ignored the very solicitous invi- tation, and those who turned out were few, indeed.
 Making one or two points, alone, the Populist candidates were met at three or four other places by the Democratic candi- dates for Representative and for Sheriff. The crowds being slim and the Democrats making 1t hot for them, the Pops, like the Arabs of old, "folded their tents and quietly stole away" In fact they, all of sudden, ceased to educate the voters, and left the field.
 The fact that the Populist can didates decided to stop their public canvass Is significant. It shows that Populism in old Drew is a thing of the past, and that the people do not care to be bored with their heresies any longer. While the Populist can didates, outside of their politics, are very clever men, the rebuke which they have received at the hands of the voters is just and proper, and NC sincerely hope has been a lesson not soon to be forgotten.
 II is a well known fact that very large proportion of the voters of Drew county are Dem ocrats, and the only opposition to amount to anything at all is the Republican party; and there IS no man, with a thimble-full of brains, but knows that unless the Populists could get the Re publican vote there would not be a ghost of a chance for them. Their hope, and only hope, is to carry the Republican vote and few disaffected Democrats, W hich, when combined with the few they trust to be able to squeeze into office Demo- crats, however, are on the alert, and will see that no such ca lamity befalls their county.

"1f q newspaper man knew how many knocks he received in the back he would adopt another call ling" remarked citizen the other day: The citizen was mistaken. The newspaper man who succeeds, expects to bo malinged by every law breaker, swindler and hypo. crite, every carping critic and every lover of notoriety who is ignored, and in fact by all persons who do not agree with him on public and private questions. The newspaper man who expects to go through life without being mis- represented and censured should make his arrangements to die young.-Ex.

The big and the small journals, secular and religious the philoso- phers of all calibers; the divincs of all denominations, and so on and so on, are endeavorlng to locate the cause and blame for the recent do- ings of mobs in Arkansas. Mobs and mob-law are always wrong within the bounds of an organized government, and the better the or ganization, the worse Is the mob and its acts. One says the law yeis are most to blame, another lays it at the door of the courts. another places it to the credit of the pardoning power, another fix es 1t upon someone else and so 1t goes. Now it is our deliberate opinion that every class and call ing are more are less responsible for the mobs and their dark deeds. The lawyers, the courts, the gov ernor, the sheritfs, constables, l.
 P's., press divines and people, are in some degree responsible. Let us all sweep cleaner before our own door.-Ozark Democrat.
