GOVERNOR LAUDS
PARDON ATTORNEYS.
Fuller and James, Who Engineered
Johnson Pardon are Exonerated
From Blame at Green Forest.
Green Forest, Nov. 6.—The candi
dates for governor, Judge Wood, Gov.
Davis and Mr. Vandeventer, spoke
here today to an immense crowd, the
speaking being held in the open air,
no building in town being large
enough.
Judge Wood devoted most of his
time to a scathing arraignment of
Governor Davis’ pardon record,
dwelling at length on the cases of
Collins, Simmons and Johnson. He
declared that as attorney general Mr.
Davis refused to prosecute the trusts
under the Rector act, after the su
preme court had held the law valid.
He declared that to elect Gov. Davis
for a third term was simply to elevate
him to Senator Berry’s seat in the
senate. A mistake of ten minutes in
time against Judge Wood caused his
speech to be brought abruptly to a
close. He was frequently applauded.
Gov. Davis made a characteristic
address, declaring himself to be al
most sick from fatigue. He dwelt
long aad loud upon his effort to prose
cute the trusts. He exonerated
Fuller and James in the Johnson par
don case, saying that Fuller had been
deceived by Ur. Witt. He professed
the profoundest friendship for both
Fuller and James He said that this
pardon was a mistake, but that the
petition was signed Dy some or tne
best people in the county; that if
pardons were not deserving the peo
ple should not sign petitions asking
for them. He declared he bad raised
the assessed valuation of railroads in
the state over seventeen millions of
dollars since he has been governor.
He reviewed Judge Wood’s official
record, stating that while he was par
doning people Judge Wood had been
pardoning railroads, declaring the su
preme court decisions to be favorable
to corporations.
Mr. Vandeventer assailed the gov
ernor’s record, declaring many of the
governor’s assertions to be bold mis
represenations of the truth. He was
interrupted several times by the yells
of several Davis men.
While here Gov. Davis remarked in
the presence of your correspondent
that he would rather carry Oarroll
county than any other in the state,
except Benton county. He said Mr.
Vandeventer would not carry a town
ship in the state.
GOOD ROADS
MOVEMENT ORGANIZED.
Permanent Officers and Chairmen of
Conventions of December 17th
from Every Township Chosen
—Several Addresses Made.
In pursuance of a circularized re
quest of the executive committee of
the Arkansas Good Roads Association
to the county judges uf the state,
Judge J. M. Jones called a meeting at
the court house Friday afternoon for
the purpose of effecting permanent
township and counly organizations,
The subjects considered were, first,
a statement of the object of the meet
ing by County Judge Jones, after
which the Hon. H. L. Remmel made
an interesting and educational talk,
appealing to every one present to
take an interest and assist in working
up enthusiasm among all classes of
our people to the end that we may ob
tain the necessary aid from the gov
ernment in the improvement of our
highways.
Mr. Remmel having just returned
from Europe, where he had an oppor
tunity of seeing and enjoying the
magnificent roads of the old country,
was enthusiastic in his desire for an
onward movement and effort on the
part of the citizens of each county in
the state.
Interesting talks were made by Hon.
M. M. Stuckey, Hon. G. A. Hillhouse
and Claude Erwin, after which on mo
tion Judge Jones was made chairman
and Alcorn Ferguson secretary of the
permanent organization.
Most of the townships in the county
were represented, and the following
persons were elected chairmen of the
different township organizations for
the purpose of calling township con
ventions on Thursday, December 17,
for the purpose of appointing dele
gates to the county convention, which
meets in this city, at the county court
house, on Saturday, December 19:

The government has reached that
point where it is ready to give national |
aid to country roads as well as rivers
and harbors, and it behooves every |
business man and farmer in the South
to urge their representatives in con
gress to effect the necessary legisla
tion, and to do this the people must
have organizations and show the
proper interest.
All good citizens are invited to at
tend the county convention here on
December 19, when delegates will be
appointed to attend the state conven
tion, which meets in Little Rock on
January 20, 1904.
The meeting then adjourned to
meet at the county convention to be
held in this city Saturday, December
19,1903. Alcorn Ferguson,
Secretary.

ite primary object upon Friday after
noon, when the members were en
tertained at the home of Mrs. L. E.
Willis in honor of Mrs. J. G. Walker,
who leaves in the near future tormake
her home in New Mexico.
A guessing contest, somewhat on
the order of the popular puzzle pic
tures, was enjoyed, being particularly
appropriate by reason of their nature,
for the answers were the names of
books read by the club and were to be
suggested by certain articles in the
room.
Delicious refreshments of cream,
assorted cake, coffee and pickles were
nicely served, the table being beauti
fully and lavishly decorated in crys
antbemum8 and smilax.

Pharmacy is a very different art from what it
was a few years ago. It is a growing science,
and the druggist today who fills prescriptions
must be UP-TO-DATE and his stock must be
likewise. New remedies and new methods
multiply. Many prescriptions present problems
which only A SKILLFUL PHARMACIST can
rightly solve. We are prepared to fill any pre
scription, no matter where or by whom written.
