SENATOR DAVIS SEES
 HINEMON'S STRENGTH.

y growing wiser or, at least, more truthful, in his recent speech at Searcy, he acknowledge ed with becoming candor that Hinemon is tile real object of his attack, and that Donaghey IS no longer "the man to beat" It IS also noticeable that the Senator has raised the Clark county man to the dignity of mister, fact which, to those familiar with the Senators methods, IS signifi- cant. His best weapon IS rldl- cule and contemptuous references to a candidate of whom he IS not afraid, and whenever he forsakes this method of attack, 1t IS an indication that he fully realizes the strength of his opponent.
 The fact that Mr. Hinemon has proven foe worthy of the Senators steel Is no surprise to his friends, for they know his metal; but to the Davis and Don- aghey parti>ans II must come in the nature of a very great and unwelcome revelation. They cannot understand how Donag- hey's sesterces and the Senator's machine do not prevail against a man who has neither. That a man who has only his honesty, and d clean record can prevail against the tlunderbolts of Da- wis and the seductive c1ink of Donaghey's coin Is, to them, thing beyond belief; but they will shortly find that demagogy and the strong box have had their day iii Arkansas politics, and that the people, tolerant for a time of one-nan rule, will go back to the safe and honorable custom of eleeting governor who will represent the whole people, aid lot q part of them.
 he election of AIr. Hinemon  would De an absolute guarantee of | safe and just administration ef the states affairs. The gov ernor's off6e would be no longer the fountain Head=of= regret table and disgfa5eIuf stream of scandal such as We have had during the past eight years. The pardon mil which has op- erated only for those who paid the proper toll would cease its steady grind and only those who deserve Il would receive exeeu- tive clemency, and the numerous other disreputable actions with which the executive office has be- come maiedorous would be dis continued.
 For eight years the governor $ office has been tie bone of con- tention between few selfish politicians who had absolutely no regard Tor the people, and it Is the people who must stop 1t. They have an opportunity 10 throw of the yoke which they have worn so long, and b put d man at the head of their affairs who will look as closely after the interests u che most humble la borer, a> he wiil those of the richest man ia the State.
 Mr Hinemon' own life las been ole ot constant toil, and he appreciates fully the condi- tions aud difficulties of those who are struggling to get away from the bottom There are those who would like to say that he IS dishonest, incapable and disloyal to Demos raCY. but his record K an open book. and his enemies know that any attempt to dis credit him before the people would result in their own con- fusion.
 It Is this fair record and abun- dant ability together with a popularity which grows wider every day, which have caused
