THE TRUTH.

"Co;n" Harvey's opposition to
Senator Jones only emphasizes
the fact that the senator cannot
be worked by such men as Har-
vey. This will be all the more
patent when it is known that
Harvey's attack on the senator is
the result of a grudge growing
out of his failure to retain an inn
portant position with the Nation
al Democratic committee in con-
nection with the management of
the press bureau at Chicago. 1t
is generally understood that
Harvey made such a mess of this
department that Democrats all
over the country demanded his
removal, In answer to that de-
mand, his resignation" vas
subsequently announced, and no
doubt Senator Jones was the man
who gave Harvey the hint that
his services were not acceptable.
Now this same Harvey who i'm
agined he would take the state by
storm, who came down from Chi
cago to enlighten the benighted
citizens of Arkansas, exposes his
littleness by criticising a man
whose shoes he is not worthy to
unloose.-Arkansas Democrat,

FOR SENATOR JONES,

The Jones-Clarke contest for
the senate is being discussed in
the papers throughout the state.
Senator Jones occupies a very
prominent place in the democratic
party, He has won this place
because of his ability. He is the
leader Of the minority in the SEN
ale and a very Gesourceful one,
too. His influence at Washington
is well known and recognized by
all Arkansas, and the democratic
party at large will continue to
need the services of Jas. K. Jones
in the United States Senate
Fayetteville Sentinel.
Yes, the services of such men
are needed by the democracy OF
Arkansas and the country at
large. The only difficulty seems
to be that there is an out of job
politician who wants to have a
faithful servant ousted that he
may get place, and the republi.
cans are anxious that the change
should be made because they
want a weaker man than he on
the democratic side of the senate.

The Commercial Appeals pop
ular subscription for a medal for
Admiral Schley has broken all
records for movements OF this
character. In the space OF two
or three weeks $500 have been
raised in subscriptions of 10 cents
each. This is proof Of the uni
versal popularity of Schley and
Of the condemnation OF his ira
ducers and should be a warning
to a partisan department that the
American people have already
given their verdict as to the hero
of Santiago and no juggling OF
the testimony or manipulation OF
court of inquiry will suffice to
destroy the reputation OF a popu-
lar hero and foist in his place a
political pet who has done moth
inc to win the honors which he
brazenly claims. In the battle Of
Santiago Schley's ship, the
Brooklyn suffered "a per cent Of
the punishment inflicted on the
American fleet, intlicted 80 per
cent OF the damage to the Span
ish fleet, and the only man killed
on the American side was one at
the feet of Admiral Schley on the
Brooklyn's bridge, During the
progress Of the battle but one
other ship, and that only once,
was closer to u Spanish vessel
than the Brooklyn was during the
entire engagement and yet a par
