PA PRIMARY ELECTION LAW. :

The primary elections for the Sc
lection of candidates for the va
rious Offices, state and county,
having as it seems now become
fixed policy OF our people,
and inasmuch as the primary
elections practically determine
the choice of the people for The
various offices, it is highly i'm
portant that the same shall be.
conducted with uniformity, with
the utmost fairness and under
and under the fullest legal pro-
lection. We therefore call upon
the legislature for the passage of
some primary election law which
will insure fairness and legality
and protect the Democratic pri-
maries against those who would
use them for fraudulent purposes,
and against illegal voters, and
against adherents and members
of other political parties who per-
sist in forcing themselves into
Democratic primaries.
CARE OF THE INSANE.
We endorse the action of the
legislature in making suitable
provision for the accommodation
of the insane of the state and con-
graduate the people of the state
that this request and endorsement
of the last Democratic state con-
vention found suitable and ready
response in the action of the last
legislature.
EX- CONFEDERATES NOT FORGOTTEN.
We recommend increased liber-
ality in pensions to ex-COnfeder-
ates and the suitable mainten-
ance of the Confederate Home.
THE PENITENTIARY SYSTEM.
We recommend a revision Of
the law as to our penitentiary so
as to make it as far as possible
self-sustaining and prevent its
mismanagement in any way, and
that any surplus arising from
convict labor shall pass into the
school fund for the education of
the children of the state in the free
schools.
R. R. COMMISSION,
We endorse the state railroad !
commission and disapprove any
action looking to its abolishment.

GOV. DAVIS ENDORSED.
The Democracy of the state OF
Arkansas, in convention assem-
bled, endorses the administration
Of Governor jefferson Davis as
courageous, wise, honest and
economical and consistent with
the time -honored principles OF
the Democratic party.
TRUSTS.
We reaffirm the declara ton of
former national and state Demo-
cratic conventions against trusts,
pools and combinations and con-
spiracies against trades whereby
the prices or rates are fixed In
restraint in anywise of the freest
open competition in any species
of business. We regret that the
last legislature failed to pass an
effective anti trust law as de-
manded in the last Democratic
platform Of this state, and we de-
mand now that the next legisla-
ture speedily enact law on the
subject in order that all trusts,
pools, combinations and cOnspira-
cies in restraint of trade or pre-
venting competitor in prices or
rates shall be effectively destroy
ed in Arkansas, and that the will
of the people on the subject, as
expressed by their endorsement
Of Governor Davis, shall be fully
and without evasion carried out.
To that end we demand that
the next legislature enact without
amendment the King antitrust
bill introduced in the last legisla-
ture.

Calling Gowns and NeaIiaees.

An unusually chic calling gown OF
dark green taffeta showed the 1880
mode in it's quaintest form; with puff
ings and insertions, long shoulder eff
feet and full sleeves, to say nothing
of the full skirt and small waist, the
ensemble was all one could desire. A
toque of the green showed tiny wing
and knots of ribbon velvet of a paler
shade for contrast; the green para
sol was a most fitting accompaniment
to this particular costume.
Any number of dainty matinees and
Aegligees must be considered in the
trousseau, from the lounging robe for
boudoir use to the peignoir OF regal
lines becoming the hostess OF the
drawing room, so beautiful and artis-
tic are they in design. Richly hand
embroidered crepes in delicate shades
make up handsomely, while accordion
silks with profuse lace insertions pos
lsess a particular attraction for the
majority of women. their clinging full
ness, with flowing sleeves. being real
,ly very fascinating and decidedly be-
coming.
