The Nashville (Tern.) Banner1
Says that if Senator Tillman is a
cornfield lawyer, Jeff Davis is aj
scrub nubbin out of the same field, j
Fortunately for Editor Baskette, |
the Banner doesn’t circulate much !
in Arkansas.
A 14-year-old girl who was a j
witness in the circuit court at
Fort Smith said she had never
heard of the Bible. She was born
and raised near that city. And
yet we spend thousands of dollars
every year trying to convert the
heathen. __________
The Boston (Mass.) Globe thinks
that “When Governor Davis of
Arkansas goes to the United
States senate. Senator Tillman
won't be so conspicuous.’’ Well
there is reason to believe that
Senator Davis will wake things up
occasionally.
For the first time in many
years United States Senator James
X*.Clarke has not been selected as a
delegate to the Arkansas state?
Democratic convention. At the
meeting of the Pulaski county
convention Saturday his name was
not mentioned in the selection of
delegates. __________
Congressman Brundidgo is be
ing favorably mentioned as a
prospective candidate for United
States Senator against Senator
Clarke two years hence. Mr
Krundidge is an able man and The
Journal believes he would better
*erve the interests of the people I
than Senator Clarke.
