Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1898-08-22

the premiups offered for theives and periured liars in political contests, was so often charged in our elections and courts, certainly afforded some reason for taking this matter under consideration A conviction for robbery, or theft, or forgery, or plain lying, or intimidation, or bribery, or even murder, in el ection cases, is not on the books, and why2 These things have all been done and continue to be done. Is it the fault of the law or the execution of the law It is hardly chargeabe to the former.
 Father Lucey has very truly de tailed the situation. "A debaoched franchise, the subversion of the will of the majority, the flimsy es- innate of the oath of honesty in political elections, the premium of. fered for theives and perjured liars
 in political contests, certainly af- lords some reason for taking this matter under most serious con sideration. Indeed, it is largely responsible for the condition of lawlessness which exists in this state, which is dlsgracing our so- ciety, laws and civilization, and re- tarding tke progress and material development of Arkansas. Right here in Jefferson county, during the present campaign, we have wit messed a asubversicn of the will of the majority and the "fimsey es. innate of the oath of honesty in elections, etc, and even nowit is being openly and boldly asserted by those who have thwarted the will of the majority, that the same thing can and will be done again; that they control the election machinery, and that they would as soon count Out Mr. Bell as a "nigger," ant re- marks of similar purport. What can be expected of the society, civili- zation and laws of a community where such things are tolerated.? Laws cannot be enf,reed or effec- tive unless the laws are expected. If the election laws are notoriously and fiagrantly violated, the people will have neither respect for the laws nor the officers whose duty it is to enforce them. Such things lead to anarchy and riot, and Father Lpcey's very able letter is note of warn ng and especially timely ard appropriate,

An Outrage.

The arrest of Lieut.. Garland, sou of former Attorney General A. H. Garland, by Col Chandler,of the First Arkansas regiment of Volun- teers now in camp at Cnickamauga, is species of outrage that should be denounced by the press of the country.
 Lieut.. Garland wgo te and caused to be circulated a petition asking that the First Arkansas Regiment be mustered out of service and be per mltted to return to their homes, now that the cause for tkeir enlist ment has been removed since peace has been declared with Spain. For this he was arrested and placed in the guard house.
 The volunteer troops do not want to be sent to Cuba or Porto Rico or the Philippines merely to do gar rison duty. They volunteered to fight for their country, but not to do police duty. Many of them gave up valuable situations and employ ments to serve their country, but now that the war is over, they want to return to their homes to perform their several occupations.
 But not so with the officers. With them life is quite different. They can make more in the army than they can possibly earn at home Like the average Jefferson county office holder, they knew a snap when they have it and are 10th to part with it. Then these officers do not have to undergo the hardships of the common soldier. They live much better and more comfortably. And then with their gay epaulets and turkey gobbler struts they ale the observed of all observers, and the admiration of frail and tickle femininity. To be an officer is to be on dress parade, look pretty, dc nothing and draw big salsry. In command Of garrlsou under the torrid sur of a .ropic cline. they could loll in idle ca e and luxury up- der the shade of the trees, send re calcitrant and protesting priyates to the guard house, and draw big pay for their arduous labors.
 It is no wonder then that tue off eers are ready to sead any private to the guard house who is bold enough to protest against their per sonal and selfish greed and longs for the good old days at home. It is

 Complexion.
 The newest models of jackets in hlacg velvet or elots- have velvet collars. This in itself is not at all new, but the collars are Of velvet of most decided color--Yiolet or green or old rose. Richly embroidered collars are also novelty, and embroidered revers to match are the usual aecompani- ment.
 Instead of tacking saohets in the gown itself, to place them here and there in the closet whore clothing is kept is better way of pertaining attire for women who are addicted to artificial perfumes. An other plan is to cover the wire coat hang CTS used to suspend skirts and bodioes with pretty silk under which is perfumed wad- ding.
 Tho usual envelope shape employed for cases to hold bandkerchiefs, yeils, etc., is not sufficiently ample to accommodate scarfs, rolls of iace and similar bulky but dainty articles. 4 new idea is to nse a large round willow basket, stained green or laoquered with gold paint, and lined with silk which incloses perfumed wad-

The Iowa is slightly inferier in

The Texas is smaller, yet she car

The batteries of the cruiser Brook

These guns throw a projectile

be thrown a mile for every inch Of
calibre, roughly speaking. On board
ship, however, the guns are never
elevated to get the maximum dis

guns would have to be elevated
would be such that the recoil might
