GOVERNMENT WORD Y
 ON WHITE RIVER.

Since the completion of the dam here last wintera says the Batesville Guard, but a small force of men has bee retained to put on the faishinI touches. These have been q ekgaged in building a new hLp for the dredgeboat Van Fra&k, which was launched Saturday afternoon.
 In little while the machinery and upper parts of the boat will be transferred to the new hull and the dredge, which is the principal tool used in this work will be ready for business. About the 1st of July Capt. Par kin will move his headquarters to lock 2, eight miles above here, and put a force of 15O to 200 men to work finishing the dam there. He will be employed there until late in the fall.
 Only about twenty men are employed on lock 2 now. Dur ing the low water season this summer modern fshway, plans for which have been secured from the fish commission at Washington, will be built in the dam here so the fish now detain- ed here by the filling up of the way first built may pass on up the river.

MAS II A BRlBE?

Mr.. w b. Smith of Little Rock, in
that city, sprung a new charge III
Jeff Davis Mr. Smith discussed the
pardon of Bob Simmons of Newport.
whc, was fined $500 for violating the
liquor laws of the state, over the pro-
test of the prosecuting attorney and
others. He then introduced a neN
count ia the indictment against Da-
Wis by making a statement that on
January |, this year, Davis went 10
the Newport Banking and Trust com
pany and presented note for 81 ,00a,
endorsed by the wife and brother of
Bob Simmons and Charles Wilmans,
who was instrumental in securing the
pardon. This, said the speaker, can
be construed as nothing short of an
indirect acceptance of a bribe.
The mere fact that Il friend endors-
es the note of friend is nothing
unusual and does not carry with it
any evidence of a crime except that
there may be suspicious circumstance
connected with the transaction.
The fact that the wife and brother
of Bob Simmons, ~ man pardoned by
Davis. and by the man instrumental in
securing the pardon, are endorsers on
Governor Davis note fCIr 81 600 looks
rather suspicious.

To Keep Baby Healthy.

The three prime essentials for the
baby are fresh air, good food and pure
water. An infants thirst is not quench-
ed by milk. 1t needs clean water to
drink with regularity. Always hold a
baby in Your arms In feeding it in
about the same position as if nursing It.
Regular habits. proper food and long
hours of sleep are necessary conditions
to healthy infant. Plain boiled water
given between feeding will often aid
the digestion and satisfy the child
when restless. DO not feed the baby
because it cries; its restessness may
be due to pain and it is hurtful to fill
an infants stomach at such time

A report made by the dean of the
faculty of Arts aaa Sciences of Har-
ward university shows that out of 172
students who received the bachelors
degree with honors at Havard last
commencement eightfour were pre-
pared for college in the public schools
as against seventy-six from private
schools of all kinds, says the Cleve
land Plain Dealer. This is convinc-
ing evidence cf the high character ,cf
instruction to be had in the public
schools. especially in view of the fact
that the academies and other private
fitting schools exist chiefly for the
purpose of preparing boys for col

this is merely an incident.

NO MACHINE WANTED.

Many good citizens OF Hawaii excuse
the coercion and corrupt manipulation
of voters on the plea of necessity, but
they forget that the machine once
established may and likely will be
used against the very men who have
built it up. 1t will not do to excuse
bad methods because they are useu
in your favor; the day will come when
they will be used against you. In the
long run the machine can be counted
upon to gravitate towards bad govern
ment and against good government,
and 1t would be a very short-sighted
policy for the citizens of this Terri
tory to acquiesce In the wholesale
bribery of native voters with official
patronage and the coercion and In
timidation of native and foreign Office
holders simply because things happen
to be going their way just now. The
safe course.in the long run Is to resist
coercion and intimidation, to resist the
abuse of official patronage and to
stand always, even under most trying
circumstances, for a free and untram-
meled vote and for fair and honest
count.
The one thing that will discredit and
check improper methods is Wholesale
rebuke at the polls; failing that the
Democratic party proposes to put itself
in communication with the Democratic
party in both Houses of Congress and
with our National and Congressional
Committees; but we believe that moth

more lmportant:to elect an active, in

WHERE DEMOCRATS STAND


| the office in question.
WHERE DEMOCRATS STAND
1t is commended that the Democrats
stand for free trade and, therefore. for
Tree sugar. This is, as we submit, nom
sense AS matter of fact neither
party stands for free trade; the Demo-
crats desire a more moderate tariff
! thar the Republicans, but both stand
practically Tor protective tariff. IT
was the Democratic party under Cleve-
ldnd that averted the evils of the Nc
Ainley Dill which well nigh wrecked
this Territory in 1890, restoring the
auty on sugar and abolishing the boun
~ system established by the Republi-
can party.
1t is claimed that we must elect a
Republican if we expect to get ammo
priations. AS a matter of facy we got
more in the way of special appronri-
a,ioiis while Mr. Robert Wilcox was our
delegate to Congress than during the
periou When we were represented by a
I.epupiicah' and 1T is matter of fact
.n.e OUTSIDE OF the Fire Claims we have
got little or nothing but what is given
as matter of course to any Territory.
Inc action of the National Republican
convention in reducing the representa-
tlon OF this Territory in the National
convention was a distinctly unfriendlv
act and was, we contend a significant
outgrowth of the fixed and ayowed
sentiment in the Republican party that
thls Territory never shall enjoy state
hood. We believe 1t would be a whole
some evidence Of our sentiments ON the
SUBJECT and of the spirit of our citizens
to return Democratic candidate.
HOW STATEHOOD WILL COME.
IL we ever get statehood We shall get
IL through the Democratic party. Sena-
tor Jones, recent Chairman of the MAJ
tlonal Democratic party, said to me
personally: THE Democrats of the
United States were opposed to the an.
neXation of Hawaii but now that Won
nave been annexed the Democrats nro-
pose that you shall be given eysry
right and privilege, political and other
wise, enjoyed by your fellow citizens
ON the mainland
IL would be fitting response to the
picayune attitude of the Republican,
party towards Hawaii in reducing its
representation in the National Conyen-
tlon' to return wholesome Democra-
TIC majority for our Delegate to Con-
Sress, Doth as a rebuke to such narrow
prejudice and as a protest against the
stripping of this Territory through
taxation for the benefit of the National
treasury without any adequate recop-
milton In return in the way of special
appropriations for public improvements.
DECLARES CAMPAIGN OPENED.
with these preliminary remarks we
declare the campaign of the Democratic
party for this election duly opened.
In addition to his written Address
Mr. Kinney added: If the Democratic
party was not in the field tonight the
Home Rule party would this year be
swept away entirely by the machine
OF the Republican party"
