Sudden Death of MIR. Kay.

Anderson County has lost another
good citizen in the death of our vener-
able friend, Silas Nay, which occurred
suddenly at his home in Hopewell
gewnship last Sunday morning. He
arose from bed that morning appa-
rently in his usual good health, went
to his stables and looked after feed
ing his stock, returned to the house
and ate hearty breakfast. Later on
he retired to his room to take bath
and dress himself to 60 to church. Re-
naming in his room longer than was
expected, one of his daughters called
him and, not receiving any response,
entered the room and found MIN lying
on the floor dead. Ee had been tre at
ed by his physician for heart disease,
and that disease caused his death. Mr.
Kay was most upright, worthy citi-
gen, and by his genial, sociable dispo-
sition made friend of every acquaint-
ance. He was about II years of age
and leaves a widow, five sons an
rthre daughters to cherish his mem ory,
tOn hlv:.d day morning at II o'clock the
remuine were inferred IN the fam lily

GRAPHIC'S MIND UNCHANGED.

The Central Democratic committee
of Pine Bluff has seen proper to re-
fuse to legalze the city Democratic
primary election to be held on jan
uary IL. and for what reason. those
who voted against it declined to state.
1t is too late now for any further action
on the matter by the committee, but
the Graphic desires to be understood
as not having changed its mind on
this question, and when the proper
time arrives for discussion of it again
the Graphic will be found clamoring
for legalzed primary election, the
nearest thing to an honest primary
that can be had. There can be no
doubt but what the great majority of
the Democratic voters wanted le-
galized primary this time.

ASSET CURRENCY.

One of the most important objec
tions to Representative Fowlers bill
for assets currency, it seems is the
fact that the bill would permit the is
sue of these notes not specifically Sc
cured without requiring banks first to
the limit or to any fixed per centage of
the limit.
The profits on this asset circulation
would be several times as great as the
profits on the bond-secured circulation
The scheme, therefore, would make
it an object for the banks not to in
crease their regular circulation. but to
retire as MUCH. as possible of their
bond-secured issues and emit the other
kinds in it's place
If congress lis, going to reform the
currency along this line it should
provide that no bank shall receive a
dollar of additional issue unless it has
already taken out at least 50 per cent.
of the bond-secured issue to which 1t
is entitled, and that no bank shall re
tire dollar. of the latter SO long as it
has any notes outstanding which are
secured by general assets only.
Congress should also provide for
making the asset issues SO dintinct in
appearance that nobody could fail to
recognize them and for printing in
plain type on their face that they are
not secured by United States bonds
There is absolutely no necessity
however for any such legislation at
all. The only thing needed is provis-
ion for emergency issues SO heavily
taxed that they will only be issued in
times of great stringency and retired
as soon as the pinch is over.

NO GOOD COULD RESULT.

The Fort Smith Elevator speaks
thus truly as to the proposition to sub
mith to the legislature for nyestiga
ton the purchase of the Cummins
plantation for convict farm:
The Paragould Soliphone suggests
as way of settling the dispute be-
tween the governor and the peniten-
tiary board about the convict farm
that the Legislature appoint a commit
tee of siy to investigate all facts con-
nected with the purchase of the prop.
erty and ascertain whether the pur
chase was really a good one. Now,
where is any sense to be shown in
burdening the legislature with lot of
work to investigate matter that the
law plainly provides for, and simply
too. to crafty whim of the govern
or? A joint resolution providing fo:
the same mode of procedure as that
suggested by the Soliphone passed
both houses of the last legislature and
received the governors veto. The lat
ter, in his veto, said he considered the
proposed work of the committee un-
necessary, for the reason that the
law already empowered the peniten-
tiary board to purchase convict farm
whenever they saw proper to do SO.

Elevator can see no good to come from
it,
There has been no objection to the
purchase made by the commission ex-
cept by Gov Davis and those who OBJ
ject to everything to which the govern
or objects and approve everything he
approves, and the governor and the
governor and none of his me toos"
have brought any charge of fraud
against the purchase, the only cause
for objection appearing to be that
the governor was not permitted to
buy the convict farm without the aid
or consent Of any of the other mem
Ders of the commission.
