The "Common Votcrs."

The Dardanelle Post t-Dispatch,
edited by Mr.. John H. Page, the
Governors purchasing agent,
says it may be possible "to edu-
cate the common voters up to the
point Of defeating Jeff DAVIS in
about fifty years"
By what rule, and upon what
authority, if we may inquire,
does the Governors personal
organ divide the people into two
classes common and uncommon?
The States population is entirely
homogeneous. The peopl Q are
all mutually depen lent upon each
other, with interests so closely
interviewer that neither prosper
ity nor adversely touches one
without affecting another. Neith-
or residence in town or country,
or choice of avocation, whether
professional or business man, a
mechanic or farmer, can make
one man either better or worse
than another. Each ones stand
ing among his fellows must be
determined by his own conduct,
whether that is good or bad.
The Dardanelle paper assumes
to divide the people into classes
common and uncommon upon the
line of education. To the "com-
mon voters" to use his own term,
it attributes an ignorance that on
ly fifty years of education can re-
move, and upon this basis its con-
fident assurance of Gov. Davis
success. This is at once an af-
front to the voters and q discred-
liable confession. 1t is possible,
sometimes to deceive the voters;
but the man who counts upon
their ignorance for continued
success mistakes both their tenn
per and their intelligence. Bates

Had to Get Up Several Times Every Might
For Salea Shows Drug Store
Convict Farm Crop.

Financial Agent, j. G. Moore of
the penitentiary estimates that the
state will derive 100000 from
this years crop on the Cummins
plantation, the states convict
farm, in Lincoln county. Mr..
Moore has just returned from a
visit to the farm, and he reports
a splendid crop and prospects for
an abundant yield. 1t is believed
that fully 1900 bales Of cotton
will be gathered on the 1000 acres
planted in the fleecy staple. In
addition on the other portions of
the land there will be $4,000
bushels OF corn, 200 tons Of pea
hay and sixty tons of hay from
Johnson grass. Mr.. Moore says
there are now 125 convicts at
work on the farm. He stated yes
terday that the penitentiary board
will undoubtedly be able to pay
$4,000 on the purchase price of
the Cummins place this fall. The
state bought the plantation last
fall for $4,000, and owes $780,
900 on it. Mr.. Moore calculates
that the board can easily pay
$4,000 this fall and place a like
amount to the credit of the peni-
tentiary fund.-Gazette.

Gambling The Worst Vice.

Of all the vices to which men
are addicted, gambling is un-
doubtedly the worst.
Gambling has a worse effect on
the mind and conscience even
than drink.
The inveterate gambler cannot
remain honest, he does not remain
honest.
We talk earnestly with the
young man with the gambling
habit, because many such young
men are strong in ability and
character and would render good
service to the world if they could
use their energies properly.
The gambling instinct is a per-
verted form Of ambition, the most
dangerous of human perversions,
Every young man who has gen.
uine streugth should think abou,
gambling from his own point oi
view, and his own pride should
give him reasons for STOPPING,
If you want success in life vo,
should want it as a result of you,
own efforts, not a the result O
any accident.
