Our readers who have been looking
for Hood’s Calendar for 18W> will be
glad to know that it is out and naay be
obtained from druggists or by sending
fi cents in stamps to C. I. llood & Co..
Lowell. Mass. The new calendar is
certainly a triumph of art. It repre
sents a lovely head in beautiful brown
tints, surrounded by a gold frame, em
b ssed and decidely -up to date.’’ It
makes a useful ornament for the home
and a pleasant reminder of Hood's
Sarsaparilla.
The Times heartily commends the
action of congress in removing the dis
abilities of ex-Con federates for service
in the army or navy of the United
Spates. Should war (recur, the South
ern soldier would be among the iirst to
offer his services in defense of the com
mon country, and the gallant fight they
made in the unfortunate iuternicine
strife of '(U-’ho is au earnest of what
they would do in case a foreign enemy
should invade our shores. Now, if
our Northern brethren will abandon
their prejudices sufficiently to nomi
nate and elect a Southern man for
president, we will begin to believe the
war is really over.
The Times favors an expression
from the people next year on their
choice for United States Senator, the
same as was the case in the Berry
Fishbuck contest. In this connection
the Woodruff County Vidette says:
“In tire campaign of the claims of
ex Governor Fisbback and Jas. II.
Berry, candidates for the United States
Senate, were submitted direct to the
people, allowing them to express their
ch oe at the primary elections. This
act.on did not take from the “consti
tuted authority”—the Arkansas legis
lature—the privilege or right of elec
tion. It only gave them the opportun
ity of knowing whom the people want
ed to represent them.*’

Editorial Bemetailic League
The recant convention at Little R<*ck
of the editors of democratic new-papers
in the stale favoring the free coinage
of silver, at the ratio of Iti to 1, organ
itvd the Editorial Himetailic League of
Arkansas and provided for the appoint
ment of an Executive Committee.com
posed of the president and secretary of
the convention and of one member j
from each congressional dietiict. The
appointment of this committee was de
ferred until a subsequent date, and
the editor of The Guard, as president
of the convention and ex-officio chair
man of the Executive Committee, begs
to announce the apoointment of the fol
lowing members:
First District— Mr. Frank l\ Ake, of
the Marianna Index.
Second District—Hon. Jatnps L
W'adley. of the Hot Springs News.
Third District—Mr. W. W. Folsom,
of the Hope Gazette.
Fourth District—Mr. John It. Jobe,
of the Russellville Democrat.
Fifth District—Col. I M. Partridge,
of the Fayetteville Sentinel.
Sixth District—Hon. W. Theo. Smith,
of the Stuttgart Chronicle.
The duty of the members of this com
nuttee, under the plan of the organiza
tion of tlmeditoral league, is to organ
ize the democratic press of their respec
tive districts to promote the move
ment. inside the Democratic party, for
the restoration of silver coinage in
every possible way.
We have selected the members of
this committee because of their party
standing, their long connection with
the press of the state and the activity
of their respective newspapers in the
interest of real bimetallism. Mr. O. C.
Ludwig, of the Conway Log Cabin, sec
retary of the editoral league, is ex-of
ficio secretary of the Executive Com
mittee. and members, from time to
time will please report to him.—Bates

Electric Bitters.
Electric Bitters in a medicine suited for
any season, but perhaps more generally
needed, when the languid exhausted feel
ing prevails, when the liver is torpid and
sluggish and the need of a tonic and alter
ative is felt. A prompt use of this med
icine lias often averted long and perhaps
fatal bilious fevers. No medicine will act *
more surely in counteracting and freeing
tiie system from the maiariai poison.
Headache, ludigestion. Constipation,
Dizziness yield to Electric Bitters. Fifty

A Permanent Exposition.
The letter from Mayor Warwick of
Philadelphia to G-ov. Clarke asking that
the Arkansas exhibit at Atlanta be do
nated to the Commercial Museum es- I
tablished in that city is a high tribute
to the resources of the state and to the
enterprise of its citizens. Arkansas is
by nature one of the richest and is des
tined to be one of the greatest and most
prosperous states of the Union, and
the remarkably line exhibit made at
the Atlanta exposition lms done a great
deal to turn the eyvs of the country to
one of the most favored spots on the
continent. It is probable that it would
, be a wise disposition of the exhibit to
|accept tiie proposition conveyed in the
[letter of Mayor Warwick. Hut
[there is one thought that strikes us
; in tins connection that possibly may be
l dwelt on with profit; that is the estab
| lisbuient of something in the nature of
[ a permanent exposition at the capital
of the state, so that visitors and pros
' pectors may get, as it were, a bird’s-eye
view of all its resources and advanta
ges. This, we think, is an idea that
every state that needs to attract the
notice of the outside world to its re
sources might follow with profit. Ar-i
kansas already has a magnificent col-’
! lection, and this, added to from year to i
| year, and under competent manage
mem andsnpervishm, would enable tin
! state to establish an industrial museum
j of its own that would be of iucahaila- !
ble advantage —Commercial-Appeal. |
