It may be q matter of some moment to the people at certain place to have Depot built, switch put in ora telegraph operator employed for 5 hours only and ? more em- ployed to fill up the remaining I6 hours of the day but as all these things cost money, and az the mon- ey comes from the railroads owners of the roads ike to have some say so in the matter themselves, and to have the right to place such things where they think they are needed and where it pays them to do so. Is 1t just and fair that thousands of people should suffer for the want of railroad facilities, that few have conveniences that the rail roads did see fit to givei What Ar kansas needs is more railroad, and these we will not get by unfriendly legislation.

Hon. John II. Hinemon and
 his friends, generally, have cause
 to feel proud of the fact that he is accused of making a clean. de- cent, high-toned, gentlemanly campaign in his race for Govern or, and while other candidates for that high office are abusing and accusing each other of all sorts of things, Mir. Hinemon goes about his campaign busi- ness in a dignified way. asking the office on his own merits, alone. He has never been mixed up with the Statehouse matter, the penitentiary scandal or any of the other scandalous things charged to have been taking place in and about the city of Little Rock. It is generally con- ceded that he is the best man for the place, and thousands of vot- CTS are realizing this fact, and are coming over to his side.

 Arki Have they any idea of the causei It is nothing more nor less than unfriendly legislation. The last two or three Legislatures have forced so many laws upon railroad corporations. which the railroad peo pie deem unjust, that they decided to curtail their worK in this line aad keep their capital where it cannot be so easly handicapped. The fact of the business Is the Legislators have practically decided that the owners of railroads have no rights that others are bound 10 respect. and are not capable of running their own business. The average legislator, who does not know the difference between Locomotive and corkscrew, must provide by law for railroads 10 do this or that regard less of the cost of the thing to be,done, and consequences to the railroads are becoming alarming and threading them with bank ruptcy. The result is railroad building has ceased.

Capitol contract, he would quit the campaign and have Mir. Kirby withdraw. The senator also made this proposition to the chairman of the meeting here".
 From the above 1t would seem that Jeff. Davis does not fail to draw the crowds where he goes, and another significant fact is that he seems to be offer. ing the Donaghey men a fine op portunity of getting rid of both himself and Kirby. If there is nothing to the Tom Cox and Donaghey partnership, why doesn't Donaghey get the Oscar Davis affidavit and put Jeff and Kirby out of business?

A dispatch from Hampstead county to the L. K. Democrat of the 18th, says: "The indica- tions now are that Hinemon will carry Hampstead county" !" Hinemon appears to be rapidly gaining ground, in every part of the State. Hinemon clubs have been organized, recently, in Ora wford county, and the peo- pie up in the great northwest are making strong pull for him. The southwest seems safe for Hiuemon. and If southeast Arkansas will stand by him. sas it should, and probably will. he will be the next Governor of Ar kansas.

We are inclined to the Opln1on that Jeff. Davis has made the
 mistake of his life in coming in-
 to Arkansas in the interest of
 Kirby. There is no denying the fact that Senator Davis is driv- ing off from him, every day. many of his old-time friends. Davis makeup is such that he cannot brook opposition, pa- tientlv, and when he discovers
 himself losing ground his anger is aroused and he uses language
 which drives off his hitherto sol i'd supporters. If Davis had es- poused the cause of Donaghey,
 who has heretofore been one of Jeff. Davis staunchest friends
 and most ardent admirers, in- stead of Kirby, the Donaghey
 men would have thought Davis great country's savior; but the Davis Kirby men would then have been sorely disgruntled, just as the s-Donaghey men are now. In this campaign, the principal supporters of both Kir- by and Donaghey are Jeff. Davis men, and it was a most foolish
 thing for Davis to do to actively advocate the cause of either. If Davis had remained out of the gubernatorial fight Donaghey
 would have received more votes than Kirby, and might, per haps, have been elected. but Da- vis' coming into the fight, will help Kirby, and cause the bulk of his strength to go to Kirby, but at the same time it. will alienate the affections of many of his old friends, who are now supporting Donaghey, and they will be ever hereafter opposed to Davis. It IS one of the peculiar ities of this distinguished gentle man that when he makes an en. my he makes permanent one. We do not believe that either Kirby or Donaghey is the prop CT person to be Governor of Ar kansas, at this time, or at any other time, and the very fact that Davis is here advocating the claims of Kirby may be a blessing in disguise, for it may result in dividing the old-time Davis vote between them to such an extent as to make sure of the election of Hon. ]. H. Hinemon, by far the best man in the race for the office. Mr. Hinemon IS a clean man, in ev- cry respect-is honest and con- scientious, and advocates such measures as he deems of best interest to the welfare of the State and people. He is not mixed up in any way with the great bone of political conten- tion in Arkansas-the State House steal, as it is commonly if elected, would act free of all cliques and clans.
