GEORGE W. BOTTOMS.

In this issue we present the au-
thoiized announcement Of Mr..
George W. Bottoms, as a candidate
Tor Constable Of Madison township,
soh]ect to the action of the demo.
cratic party.
lie is the present incumbent,
holding by appointment from Gov
ornor Davis, of whom he is an I'm.
compromising friend and admirer,
having been appointed TO succeed
Mr. l. B. Sellers, who resigned TO
take the position of road oversccr
Of Madison township.
George Bottoms has lived hclc
and just out of town Tor great
many years-long before the writ.
err came to Forrest City. He has
never held any sort Of an Office be-
fore that We remember, and has
just begun to branch out IN poll
ties. We presume he has made an
acceptable officer during his brief
ineambeney. lie is competent,
and in every way worthy of your
Suffrage, which he soIicits and will
appreciate.
lie is toe well-known to require
an introduction from us, and we
bespeak for him your kindly con.
s,dcration.

Political Speaking.

Three candidates for the legislature
Hon. +. W. DeRositt. :. f. Sucer and
). +. Sweet, addressed fairly large
audience Of voters at Lattimer's School
house, in the extreme northern part OF
the county last Saturday
Qnte number of other candidates
and citizens from this part or the coun.
ty attended, and We regret that we
could not be present and hear the dis.
cussiOn.
We understand, however. that Mr.
Sweet made one Of his usual speeches:
that Mr.. Sulcer made a good, c0nserva
tive talk, and that Hon. Frank De
Rositt stripped Col. Sweets speech OF
all its deceptive colorings
Everything passed off pleasantly, and
those present enjoyed the occasion
quite heartily.

result is published elsewhere in this

red. 1t is a matter Of great salts
faction that at tho last moment
friends prevailed upon Capt. Jas.
Russell to allow his name 10 he
used, and that Notwithstanding Che
fact that it had gone ont Chat he
did not want the Office and would
not serve, yet he was elected. Had
he not positively declined and had
his name taken off the ticket, there
is no doubt in our MIND that he
would have received the same large
vote as usual.
County Clerk Merwin's ard Mr.
K. p. Taylor's names were placed
upon the ticket by enthusiastic
friends, and both were defeated, as
it WAS generally known that nei.
ther cared for the nomination and
would probably not have accepted
it. Mr.. Taylor was in Little Rock
and knew nothing of his candida.

his time to his canvass for re.elec.

put on the ticket by friends, and
he was not aware that his name
was on the ticket until 9 o'clock

Not all men who are brave vii

excuse; and on the other hand

know are a ways in for a fght-ii
they know they have advantage in
strength, or arms, and a foe who is
above and scorns them. The fact
that he wont fight, except when
his antagonist is held from behind
by two stalwart henchmen does not
constitute the meaning of the
word coward as applied TO jeff
Davis. There arc many other
evidences of his pusilanimity.
His private secretary made ap.
pointments for him, as he was
authorized to do, and Davis would
not fill them, saying he did not
wish to be bothered with them.
He showed his cowardiee by this
act. When he speaks first at any
place he nearly always gives some
flimsy excuse to leave the room,
and takes as many persons away
rs he can, thus demonstrating that
he is a coward; that he fears 10

record, and fears to have his

that has presented itself during
the campaign. lie hasn't the eoul.
age 10 be fair and gentlemanly in
debate. 1t takes brave man to
do right no matter what the conse.
quences may be to him. And as
the governor rarely ever does
light We cannot help thinking
him a coward, and we think the
majority of good citizens think
likewise and will vote against him
on March 26. 1901.

The OJd.Fellows are aggrIeved
at an item which appeared IN this
paper last week, IN which we took
them TO task for what we then be.

friendship, but a matter OF bad bust.

home to have their letterheads and
envelopes printed. In the light of
further information, We are com.
PEELED by a sense of justice to them
10 admit that we were unjust and
too hasty in our remarks, and we
beg their pardon. We are now in.
formed that the printing of which
we complained is furnished and
copyrighted by their Grand Lodge
at vary nominal sum, and it was
further pointed out that this local
body has given US all the rest of
their printing. We had overlook.
ed the fact that they did have their
constitution and bylaws printed
with Us, and several other smaller
jobs, aggregating some thirty dol
lars. And while the item was not
printed with any intention to an
der for which we have the very
highest respect, and among its
membership some very warm per-
sonal friends, they are no doubt
justified in feeling hurt by the arti-
Gle in question. We hope this ex-
PLANTATION will be entirely satisfac-

We do not want any one to

We have criticised Hon. +. Bruce
Macon's silence as to the appoint
mcnt Of Senator Jones on the 18th.
milan Canal Commission, that We
have forsaken his colors in his
campaign for reelection to Con.
gress. We think he has made
mistake in the Jones matter, but
that by no means outweigts the
many good things he is dong in
Congress. We think he is entitled
10 Il second term, and will do what
we can for his nomination. The
following from The Soliphone,
published at Paragould, voices the
sentiments Of The Times: Bruce
Macon was the first member OF
Congress from Arkansas to secure
the passage OF blll, and he was
the first new member of the House

will be remembered, too, that he
was the first new member of the
House TO receive recognition from
the chair to make a speech, an1
that his speech on Cuban reeiproci-
" delivered in fifteen minute ;
time gave him considerable repu.
tation with his colleagues IN Con,
gress and was favorably comment
ed upon by the press of the coun
try. Mr.. Macon is going to be q

his untiring energy and devotion
to duty. Will the people of the

term endorsement? We hardly
