The Graphic heartily subscribes to the platform adopted by the Democratic convention at Little Rock. It is q great declaration of fine principles, as was to be expected of a committee headed by former Governor J. M. Futrell and body having for its leader man like Dr. C. H. Brough.
 The Graphic expects, from time to time, to refer more specially to the blanks of the plaform of most vital interest to the people, and contents it. self at this time with an unqualified blanket endorsement of the entire in- strument.
 It is platform on which every Dem ocrat and friend of the people, anxious to see Arkansas progress, can stand flatfootedly; declaration of prlnci- ples that can and should be subscribed to by every person in the state desir- ous of rule for the people by the peo pie, and anxious to have efficiency in government and public funds admin istered for the public benefit.

THAT NITRATE PLANT.

When Dr. C. H. Trough, Demo- cratic nominee for governor, got up on the floor of the convention in Little Rock Thursday and offered a resolu- tion urging Arkansas delegation in congress to use it's best efforts to se- cure the location in Arkansas of the nitrate plant, for which congress has appropriated s20,OO0,000, he demon- strated once again that he is always "on the job and that with him in the governors chair, the stockholders of the state of Arkansas will have as chairman of the board man who will be as quick to further the states in- dustrial interests as the average gov ernor is to further his own political fortunes.
 No better site could be selected for the plant than Arkansas can offer. The plan. is to extract nitrogen for commercial and military purpose from the air for use in manufacturing explosives and fertilizer. Water power is necessary. Arkansas can furnish water power at site making the plant safe from attack by any possible foe, and yet easily accessible to all sections of this country
 In reference the plans for plant to extract nitrate from the air, the Smithonian institution recently issued a bulletin, which is of especial inter est at this time:
 "The air is composed of approxi- mateiy four-fifths nitrogen and, ac- cordingly, affords source of nitro gen, if a feasible means for it eX- traction were known" says the Smith sorian bulletin.
 Much has been said recently about theadissotery of a, process of extract; ing it'by means of electricity. It k a fact that, in passing through ar electric arc, the oxygen and nitrogen of the air combine to fc-.::, nitric OK ide-a fact which accounts for the odor which is so noticeable in the i'm.

SAYS DIET HELPS
 CURE PELLaGRA
No Longer Any Uncertainty About
 Conquering Dreaded Malady.

Pellagra investigations conducted by the U. s. Department of Health show that diet is an important factor in curing Pellagra. However, Dr. Hen don advocates not only a nutritious diet to help the patient gain strength but the use of Baughn's Pellagra Treatment, which really effects a cure by getting at the cause. The Baughn treatment has been so successful that it is now sold with a positive guar antee to cure pellagra or the money will be refunded. The best way to find out all about pellagra and it's cure is to write to Dr. Hendon, care Amer ican Compromising Company, box 3O6s Jasper, Ala, asking for their big book on pellagra, which is sent free in plain wrapper.
