As t has been nearly sixteen years since the Democrats have been liEei up at a.e 'pie coun. e-' they have grow qu te hungry and many are prcpa;ing to be fed when the Frasi- dentlai banques is spread after March 4. Pine Bluffians are los ng no time in arranging for Ile menu and as the rourses are to be delicious and few same of them are to be disap- pointed.
 Already number Of local ci izens are getting busy n an effort to get the Pine, Bluff posoffice plum. The latestt to be mentioned in connection vt ;lthe office, in addition toI those mentioned yesterday, which list in- cluded C. H. Tripleta, J. D. Will bourne, R. J. McBr de, H. B. Strange and heyer Solmson, are Carl Rut- ledge, w. NJ. Toney, J. o. Harrison and Carl Filing.
 c. H.. Triplett stated yesterday that he was not an aspirant fer the Postlnastershio and that he itad never been a candidate for a Federal job. H. B. Strange was surprised to leG.r that his name had been men .iCncd in the st and stated yester- day Eat he was not out for the place at tliis time.
 The statement that A. l.. Burnett S place as United States commissioner in ,h 5 district was to be supplied by the now administration was incor- rect. Burnett is an appo, ntee of Judge Jacob Trieber, of the Federal Court, and as Judge Trieber was ap- pointed for life it is not likely tha. a change will be made in the local office TOW occupied by Burnett.
