BOURLAND’S PRESUMPTION.
\.sks People to Let Davis Name Ticket
From Top to Bottom—Vandeven
ter Handled the Little Hero
Worshiper Without Gloves.
Ash Flat, Aug. 31.—Judge Carroll D.
iVood, Hon. A. F. Vandeventer and
ludge Bourland, who represented
Jo-7. Davis, addressed a crowd of 3,
100 people here Saturday. Inasmuch
is the rival candidates for governor
lad all accepted the invitation to be
iresent, Gov. Davis’ friends were
mry much disappointed in his failure
,o put in appearance.
Judge Wood was the first speaker,
md for an hour and a quarter held the
arge crowd spellbound. Judge Bour
and was the next to speak, and de
ivered one of his characteristic
ipeecbes. Asking permission of the
srowd to remove only his collar, later
re asked permission to remove his
3oat, then finally asked permission to
roll up his pants, all of which was mer
rily granted by some and reluctantly
granted by others. He pleaded hard
tor Davis, and oft and repeatedly
proclaimed his loyalty to Davis in no
rnmistaken terms. In conclusion,
with his appeal to the people to give
3ov. Davis another term, he inciden
tally mentioned his candidacy for
Attorney general and stated that if the
people would re-elect Davis, elect him
attorney genaral and some one in
accord with the governor for secre
tary of state or auditor, the governor
Boujd then carry out his own ideas and
plans as to state affairs and be satis
lied.
Mr. Vandeventer was the next
speaker and he proceeded at once to
go after Governor Davis and Judge
Bourland with “tongs” and “claws,”
remarking to Judge Bourland, “I will
deal with you as you deserve, because
you called me a ‘cat.7 ” Mr. Vande
venter referred to Judge Bourland’s
loyalty to the governor and quoted a
part of his speech in which he stated
that he would stand on his head in the
mud of the streets of Little Rock for
Gov. Davis. He expressed his opin
ion forcibly of a man that would make
a statement of that kind to an intelli
gent audience. Mr. Vandeventer
showed Gov. Davis’ record on the
purchase of a convict farm, the par
don of Dr. Johnson and numerous
other items, all of which were sup
ported by affidavits. Mr. Vandeven
ter’s speech was well received and
was loudly cheered and applauded.
Judge Wood closed the speaking in
a fifteen-minute rejoinder, in which
he was cheered repeatedly, and at the
Slose of his speech the entire crowd
was gathered around the speakers
eager to hear every word uttered. At
the close of Judge Wood’s speech
there was a rush to meet the speakers.
The public demonstration showed
honors pretty evenly divided.
M’RAE STILL COGITATING.
Former Congressman T. C. McRae
of Prescott, who spent Thursday ai^d
Friday in Little Rock, in consultation
with some of his closest political
friends and, although no authorized
statement has been given out, it is
understood that the race for governor
was the subject under consideration
with reference to McRae’s entry into
the arena as a candidate. Whether or
not Mr. McRae will be a candidate is
apparently not yet settled. Among
the politicians the question is an in
teresting one and there is much
speculation as to what the Prescott |
statesman will do. Indications are
that he will in a short time make defi
nite and final announcement of his!
intentions in the matter. Mr. McRae S
s at present busily engaged in the j
practice of law.
