Word has come from the east that the
republican campaign committee Of Wash
ington will be furnished with plenty Of
money to be used on the day Of election
and the night before. The national com.
mittee is greatly worried lest the state Of
Washington 60 democratic. They figure
30 closely that the loss Of Washington
may, perhaps, mean the defeat Of Nc
Kinley, and they propose to save the
state II money can do the job. To cor
rupt voters upon the day Of election has
been trick practiced by the republican
party in many campaigns. It can be
said to the credit Of the voters Of this
state, however, that this kind Of politics
has always been rebuked and 1t should
be rebuked this year. Every democrat,
however, should bear in mind that this
money will be on hand for bribery, but
q sharp lookout will prevent it, use.

Somebody has jollied the ulletin into
giving bunch of figures, in poster type
on the first page, which are supposed to
contradict the statement of the state as
sessment valuations and taxes for the
five years ending with 1900, that appeared
in the HERALD last week. The funny
part of it is that the Bulletin works itself
into quite a state Of mind over the in
accuracies of the HERALD, while its own
statement is practically the same, with
1925 of old republican delinquencies
added. The statement made by the
HERALD is official, and is proved by the
fact that it appears in the official record
of the proceedings Of the board of county
commissioners on another page Of this
paper.

"The struggle Of men for freedom has
ever been a struggle for constitutional
liberty. There is no liberty if the citizen
has no right which the legislature may
not invade, if he may be taxed by a
legislature in which he. is not repre-
sented, or If he is not protected by
fundamental law against the arbitrary
action of executive power. The policy OF
the president offers the inhabitants OF
Porto Rico, Hawaii and the Philippines
no hope of independence, no prospect OF
American citizenship, no constitutional
protection, no representation in the con-
gress which taxes him. This is the gov
eminent of men by arbitrary power
without their consent; this is imperial
ism. "-Declaratio of Liberty Congress

II behooves every democrat in the state
to watch carefully for political lies which
are sure to be sprung by the republicans
a day or two before election. While this
has been practice in the past it Is liable
to be INDUCED in more freely this year
since the republican party in this cam
paign is controlled absolutely by John l.
Wilson and John H. McGraw who have
descended, and will continue to descend,
to anything in political campaign. The
Seattle P..I., owned by Wilson, has filed
its columns with the basest falsehoods
since the beginning Of the campaign. In
structions have actually gone to its re-
porters that they Unjust not tell the
truth" Stories sprung at the last mo-
ment are never to be relied upon, and If
they emanate from the Office Of the P.-l.
they can be safely branded as absolute
and malicious falsehoods.

The Bulletin figures out wonderful

Of wheat daily in each family in Hong

as it might answer equally as we'll in the

TO THE PUBLIC.

Pine Bluff, Ark, Jan. 30, 1900.
 Having decided not to enter the race for county and probate clerk, I deem it my duty to so inform the public and at the same time let them know why this step became neeessa- rs.
 Since severing my connection with the county clerks office (throug no fault of mine) l have been out of steady employment, and having had to work at very small salary for the past five years and having laxge family to support, 1 have been unable to accumulate the fund4 nec- essary to make the campaign. Ny condition is such that l am compell- ed to work every day to maintain my family, and of course cannot work and make the campaign also. Consequently have concluded to stay out of the race at this time. 1 desire to express my heartfelt thanks to the many friends throughout the county tor their expressions If sym pathy and support and to assure them that my future course will be continued effort to retain their friendship and esteem. and to so shape my financial affairs that I may again call on them in the future.
 Very truly, etc.,
 l.. T. SALLEE.
