from view by the envious parasite. and the archi-
tects are calling for protection from its unwecome

What is needed IS nicer discrimination in It's
use In every large city there uusightly build
lngs that need TO be transformed by some means,
and Boston is not an exception. Her Museum Of
tlne Arts, for instance. Is improved vastly by its
Cinging dTapery Of green.

 ceived Flattering Vote.
REINBERGER ys. YOUNG

Perhaps there has never been a city election with less amount of personal differences than the one which was held in Pine Bluff Tues day for the election of a city clerk, city attorney and four aldermen. one for each ward in the city. The as pirants for the above named honors had no opposition and that occasion ed very quiet and peacable cam palgn.
 The voting during Tuesday morn ing promised to be very ligbt and experienced politicians predicted that it would be the smallest humber ever polled in 1he history of the city.
 Tuesday afternoon. however, friends of Mr. " T. Young, who is the present city attorney, entered his name as candidate for re. election to that office against Irving Rein berger, who had no opposition up to t~at tina. This caused some litale surprise on tbe part of many of the voters of this city, as Mr. Young had previously announced

Hence it seems tt at Mr Young was not the originator ef his sudden can aidacy but it was invented by his friends. who wished 10 bonor him agatn in that capacity.
 All the aldermen received large numbers of votes and the city clerk received 839 out of the 856 votes cast. He lost only II votes, six votes having been thrown out in the First ward as they were incor- rectly marked Mr. Reinberger's majority over Young is 219 votes. The en tire ticket, as elected, is shown by the official returns below. The aldermen are all capable men and the city clerk and city attorney will surely give satisfaction in their respective offices. Mr. E. Lee Johnson, who was given an endorse. ment term in the office of city clerk, deserved it. He has made one of
  the most valuable city clerks Pine Bluff ever had and the people are all of that opinion, as is shown by the fattering vote be received in Tuesdays election. His position now pays $900 annually, having been increased to that amount from $500 at the last meeting of the city council

In point of law, possibly the city council did right in reconsiderng the recent appropriation made Mir. Holcomb for the purpose of liqui- dating and defraying some of the expense incurred in caring for the homeless and out of work people. Right is right. MT. Holcomb has no income whatever. Since opening his mission in this city, he has given tke homeless, to the number of over sixteen hundred. food and shelter and found employment for over 250 men. Let the public help him.

Parallel Case to the Philippines.

A writer in the Boston Journal does
a public service in calling attention to
an episode in American history. hale
a century ago, which affords a striking
parallel to the present instruction in
the Philippines and the determination
of the government To crush out the
last vestige Of it by force Of arms. The
Democrats Of today in their platform
call it false and un-American" t.
crush such an instruction, forgetting
the former episode when Democratic
administration was in power. As
result Of the war with Mexico. Cali
fornia and the adjacent territory had
come into the possession of the United
States. Under Gen. kearny, the com
handing officer, an American govern
ment had been established, when. in
the early part Of 1877, a native conspir-
acy exactly like that Of Aguinaldo 4
was formed in that portion Of the new
ly-acquired territory now known as
New Mexico to overthrow America
authority and wrest the control of the
whole region from the hated Gringoes
Just as Aguinaldo began his revolt
by an attempt to massacre the Ameli-
can officials and their families in Man
liza, so these earlier anti imperialists
planned to assaSsinate the American

it was to kill not only all Americans

achieve liberty and self government? ?"
Did they haul down the flag, as the
Bryanites now insist that we must do

and New Mexico, as they would now
have us scuttle out of the Philippines?
Not bit of it. This Democratic ad-
ministration instantly adopted what
the Bryanized Democracy of today con-
dennis as the false and un-American
position of crushing with military
