THE ARTFUL DODGER

II Charles Dickens had lived To this day
TO have rewritten his notes on America,
doubtless he would discover a striking re-
semblance of his character of the "Artful
Dodger" with that OF some of our distin-
guished public men.
A year ago the President, in his annual
message to Congress, was not wholly neg
lectiul OF the tariff. A conspicuous feature
OF the paper was the urging of free trade
with Porto Rico as "plain duty" He
shortly afterwards changed his position on
the subject, and ii was at his request that
Congress imposed duty on goods coming
from Porto Rico, and then presented the
people OF the island with certain revenues.
The result OF the election has surely not
been an approval OF all the things done by
the Administration. Such q conclusion
would violate standards OF morality and
common sense The change of front must
have been Tor the benefit of American pro.
ducers with whose goods shipments IRON
Porto Rico would come in competition. So
thOoS NRiih buiohot 10 shDy hoNC OCCu
called, were relieved of this taxation. In
his message this year the President does not
discuss the tariff at all. He recommends a
reduction in internal revenue taxes, and
leaves it with Congress to select for remis-
sion those which experience has shown TO
be "the most burdensome TO the industries
of the people" This might be construed
as substantially equivalent to the assump
ton that there is nothing in tariff taxation
that is burdensome.
The present tariff is full of inquities and
Impressions, and the people will take par
ticular notice Of the absence of interference
with il by the present Congress OF course,
it is not regarded as good politics" to open
wide the subject OF the tariff at short ses
sion of Congress, which will be crowded
with imperative business, but silence now
will help to open it more violently 10 a
future Congress. There are symptoms of a
speedy return of the tariff as leading po.
litical issue.

The smoke of bat tie has entirely cleared away and we common people can look over the field. Some of the sequelae are per haps known only to physicians, but any man can understand the three following facts:
 l. Hot Springs had an epidemic of smallpox.
 ?. Hot Springs suffered such con- mereial damage therefrom that she has hardly recovered after an inter- val of five years.
 3. The aforesaid gentleman nov ed away from Hot Springs, not withstanding the fact that it is a good place for men of his profession and he had shown himself strong CT in his line than the whole Board of Health. FILIus DoNKI.

 FOTs THE BABIES.

There is no better medicine for the babes than Chan berlain's Cough Remedy. It's pleasant taste and prompt and effectual cures make it a favorite with mothers and small children. It quickly cures their coughs and colds, preventing pneumonia or other serions consequences. It also
 cures crvup and has been used in tens of thousands of cases without a single failure so far as we have been able to learn. 1t not only cures croup, but when given as soon as the croupy cough appears, will pre- vent the attack. Iu cases of whoop- ing cough it liquifies tbe tough mucus, making it eaiser to expecto- rate, and lessens the severity and frequency of the paroxysms of fcough- Ing, thus depriving that disease of all dangerous consequences For sale by W. l..

that the postoffiee, where it is now located, is not at all convenient to the business portion of our city aud citizens generally: That the main part, in fact. the entire business portion of Pine Bluff is situated north of the present location of the postoffice building and the two rail- roads, that these two railroads are trunk lines and have switches and a part of their yards lying between the said business portion and the present postoffiee location and by reasons of the passing of trains and ihe continuous switching, causes delay and is dangerous to both pc. destrians and vehicles generally. The premises considered, we, the undersigned business men and eit- izens, most earnestly beg recon- sidera:ion of the recently renewed lease and a removal of the postoffice headquarters to a point north of the two railroads.
 Il the merchants and citizens add to the above resolution with their signatures, there is no doubt but what the postoffice department will comply with their request.
