DAVIS’ CHARGES WELL ANSWERED.
(Continued from First Page.)
Now, I will just get even with
you. I will deliver that note to
Gov. Davis and tell him to show
it to the people. ’
“Fellow citizens, I did sign the
complaint he speaks of. It was
a bill in equity to enjoin a pool
room in Argenta. It was also
signed by Lewis Rhoton, the
prosecuting attorney of whom
you have heard so much through
the boodle trials. It was my
official duty to do so.
“Yet this man Faucette, be
cause I would not refuse to dc
what I thought my duty, became
incensed at me and he and Cook
(his friend and tool) and their
friend, the governor, got to
gether and concocted this vile
scheme for the purpose of injur
ing me by exhibiting that note
on the stump, with the names »of
Cook and Dickinson on it. I say
to you that these men have asked
for no contracts since I have
been a member of the peniten
tiary board. The only contract
that Dickinson has is the one
that Gov. Davis made with him
when he said he was either
drunk or had his hands behind
i • i i mi. __1— Z i-Uni
mo uaciA. jluc ******
Cook ever had with the peniten
tiary was one which Gov. Davis,
when he was attorney general,
helped him to procure. Are they
his friends or mine? I am will
ing for every man, woman and
child in the state to know all the
facts in connection with this
note.
“This is the ‘dope’ which the
governor has obtained from his
bosom friend, Faucette, who is a
partner of Cook’s and who spends
much of his time in the govern
ir’s office.
MAYOR FAUCETTE OF ARGENTA.
“Let me tell you who Bill Fau
cette is. He is the ex-proprietor
of a dive where he made most of
his money. He is one of the few
men in this world who could con
ceive such a vile scheme to tra
duce and slander a man by creat
ing an impression as false as hell
3uch as he and Cook and the gov
ernor have here concocted—the
‘dope’ to which the worthy gov
ernor will treat the citizens of
Franklin county on the 19th. I
say let the light of day shine on
;he whole matter, governor. I
lave a clear conscience and I do
lot fear your execration.
“I shall ask the good people
)f the state this question, though.
iVho is in league with Cook and
Faucette, the worthy governor
>r myself? The man to whom
;heyf-rnish dope, or the man
vhose note Cook indorsed for
he sinister and hellish purpose
if trying to blacken his good
tame thereby ?
“The governor has expressed
, fear that if I am elected J will
iardon Cook. I ask you whether, |
s matters now stand, Gov. Davis.
r myself is the more likely to do
his pardoning? Davis has al- j
ied himself wi h Cook against
le—to blacken, to slander and
o besmirch me. Oh, yes, I will
ardon him!
He closed with a reference to
he governor’s declaration that
he people wanted a man in the
;overnor’s office with a back
ione as big as his grip.
“He means that he wants a
nan in the governor’s office with
. backbone as soft as his grip,”
ieclared the attorney general.
‘It’s a leather grip, and he can
wist it about to suit his own
mrposes. He is opposed to me
ror the office of governor be
:ause if he is elected to the
Jnited States senate he can not
lominate your chief executive to
vear his collar.”

NEW LINE TO MAGNESS. |l
The White River Road Secures the Cov
eted Route Down to the River.
Old Track to Remain.
A transaction was consum
j mated here Saturday which will
| enable the White River railroad
to carry into effect its desire to
build a new line of road between
Batesville and Magness, four
teen miles east here. In May,
1903, a local company was organ
ized here, with H. Devereux as
president and Messrs. Ernest
Neill, E. R. Butler N. A. Adler
and S. R. Phillips as the other
directors, to build a railroad on
the survey of the old Batesville
and Brinkley road from Jackson
port to Batesville. This survey
lay between the White River
line and the river, and the key
to the situation was in the pos
session of the right of way be
tween Eagle mountain and the
river, a narrow pass through
which the survey ran.
The White River line desired
possession of this survey, to
build a new line from Batesville
to Magness, in order to avoid the
heavy grade of the Sulphur Rock
hill. Saturday Hon. J. E. Wil
liams, an attorney of the Iron
Mountain system, came up from
Little Rock, and closed a trans
action with Messrs. Devereux,
Neill and Adler, a majority of
the directors of the local com
pany, which gives the White
River road the coveted route.
The new road will be built un
der the name of the local com
pany, the Batesville & Jackson
port Railroad Company, and
Messrs. Neill and Adler, it is un

of the directory. E. G. Merriam
of St. Louis, an attorney for the
Iron Mountain, has succeeded
Mr. Devereaux as president.
It is understood that work on
the new line will begin within
the next sixty days, and that it
will be completed bv the time the
White River line is completed to
Aurora, Mo. All through trains
will then pass over the new line
between Batesville and Magness,
but the old track will remain un
disturbed and a local train from
Cushman to Newport, as now
run, will serve this part of the
line.
The engineers estimate that it
will be cheaper to build the new
line than to reduce the grade of
the Sulphur Rock hill to the nec
essary level for heavy trains.
The new line will run by Ruth
erford and through a very rich
section of bottom country.—
