Carry Tangle To Governor.
Special to Independent.
Little Rock, April 24.—Sev
eral days ago Acting Governor
Futrell received an appeal from
Monette, Craighead county, ask
ing for his opinion on the mayor
alty tangle which resulted there
in the last election when the two
candidates received the same
number of votes.
Governor Futrell placed the
matter before Attorney General
Moose, who pointed out the law
regarding the holding of office
by mayors until their success
ors are elected and qualified.
The tie vote does not elect a suc
cessor to the incumbent, and jus
tifies him in holding on, accord
ing to the Attorney General.
The Attorney General however,
calls the attention of Governor
Futrell to the coming special e
| lection, and advises him to place
I the matter again before the vot
j ers of Monette at that time, if
j he thinks the people there are
1 dissatisfied ,or if he thinks it is
a just way of settling the diffi
culty.
