"a The Democrats Of Arkansas.

the election ofa president through

subscriptions, would be distinct
and gratifying triumph. 1t wonld
strikingly eyideuce the renewed
supremacy of the people, aud
would mern the permanent eman.
cipatiOn of our government from
those selfish influences which
have too long been relied upon to
furnish the campaign funds in re-
turn for favOrs to be bestowed. |
am in hearty sympathy with every
effort that may contribute to such
a result. The idea back of the
proposed popular subscription
plan is thoroughly commendable,
and l hope that you and your as.
sOciates will push it aud make il
an effective instrument for the at
tainment of so praiseworthy al
object" And acting upon the
suggestions contained in Gov.
Wilson's letter, aud in order to
carry out his wishes, the National
Democratic Committee has ap.
pointed u finance committee for

ing funds By popular subscription
TO finance the campaign.
The undersigned have been APP
pointed members of the tinance
committee for Arkansas, with in.
structiOns to thoroughly organize
the state for the collection OF

The appointment of this commit
tee does not in the least conflict
with the collection of the "dollal

but It is intended 10 solicit larger
subscriptious-say from s. up,
There are hundreds of Democrats
in Arkansas who are able to con.
tribute larger amounts, and we
have no doubt they viii gladly do
so if their attention is called to
the matter. We now appeal to
every loyal Democrat, every per.
son who is in favor Of a return OF

people, to contribute to this cause,
We believe firmly that Coy. vii,

dent just as sure as an election is

insnre his election, every Demo.
crat must put his shoulder to the
wheel and do his part toward ac
