and he showed how the present
tariff law is against the masses

that the fundamental difference
between the two parties is that

riching the few and that In some
way enough would leak through
to satisfy the poor, while the
/ Democrats believe in enriching
the masses. The Republicans
say that they are responsible for
high priced cotton. Il that is
the case they ought to be despised
for keeping it down 50 long. He
said that the Republicans had
charged the Democrats with not
carrsin out their platform, but
he showed very clearly that there
was nothing to the charge. Gov.

the young men 20 join a party

into the highways and hedges
and compe! the people to vote the

to their reason. He said that it
would not do to think that the

Gov. DOnaQhey'S Deserts

1t is a matter for congratulation
that Gov. Donaghcy was reelected
in Arkansas by SO decisive a vote.
This section of the country has
been favored with few men in the
governors chair of so progressive
and constructive a mould as is Gov.
Donaghey. Our governors have
largely relied on personal and fac
tional politics for nomination, then
ON the party name for election.
They have relied very little on any
constructive ard progressive meas
ures they could advocate. Gov.
Donaghey's breadth of character
and the frequent instances where he
has displayed it have repeatedly
forced him on the favorable atten-
ton of The News Scimitar. This
paper wants to see more men like
Governor Donaghey in the chairs
of governors of our states and is
always ready to lend its best efforts
to bring about the result.
The adoption of the initiative and
referendum by Arkansas was no
doubt brought about by his urging
the support. His decisive vote in
the recent election indicates that the
people of our neighbor state regard
him as The News Scimitar does.
We are anxious to hold up the hands
of such men. Only through mon
can things be done, and only
through right men can right things
be done. People must showa dis
eliminating spirit in picking public
officials. News Scimitar.
