GOV. BUCHANAN
GIVES HIS REASONS FOR COM

The Murderer Safely Landed in the

Over the Case Continues.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, August IL
Governor Buchanan, will you give
me your reasons for the Communication
of Col. II. Clay KingF asked the AS
ISOLATED Press reporter of the Chief
Executive this morning.
with pleasure" said the Governor,
"and | will do it briefly. First |
thought King should have had a
change of venue. Affidavits to the
effect that Juror Smith communicated
with outside parties and expressed an
opinion about the case, were filed with
me. These aflidavits could not be in
troduced in the court record because
it was too late.
The action of Juror Muslin and of
the jury in going to Arkansas to de-
liberate upon the case, the partial III
sanity pleadings of his wife and chill
dren and most prominent men of the
country, besides hundreds of letters
and petitions.
These were my reasons for COM
muting the sentence"
81 am responsible for my actions"
said the Governor. II thought | was
doing right, and acted according to
my belief"
He then handed the reporter a let
ter signed by twenty-six United States
Senators and Congressman.
SAFE IN THE PENITENTIARY.
The prisoner arrived in this city at
an early hour this morning, and was
at once conveyed to the State prison
by Sheriff McLendon. The sheriff
brought King by way of Nortonsville,
Ky. Their journey was a quiet one.
Great excitement still prevails at
Memphis and over the country nearly

CAPT. BLYTHE AT LITTLE ROCK.
Full Settlement Made With The
State, For Miller County.

Capt A. S. Blythe, the old Dem
ocratic Sheriff of Miller County,
illumlned the Capital Hotel rotunda
with smiles from his pleasant coun-
tenance. Capt Blythe is an old fash
toned Democrat who wears two gal
luses, and always has kind word for
every one he meets. He has been
well-bred, and no matter where he
goes his gentlemanly instincts are
sure to manifest themselves whenever
the opportunity is afforded. lie at
tended the National Democratic Con-
vention at Chicago. Late one after
noon he decided to take q ride ON
one of the cable cars After going a
few blocks the car became crowded.
A lady got aboard and the gallant
Captain arose, raised his s,ouch hat
politely and offered his seat to the
feminine passenger, which was accept
ed. The men in the car looked at
each other and smiled. One of them
had the impudence to remark:
"Say, country, that amt the way we
do in Chicago"
81 reckon not" said Capt, Blythe.
"But, you see, Pm from South Ar
kansas, and was raised u gentleman
and not a dog"
There were at least dozen ladies
in the car, all Of whom darted piercing
looks Of disgust at the Chicago Smart
Alex and clapped their hands in ap-
plauding the Miller County Sheriff.
Capt. Blythe arrived in the city yes
terday on business, which was trans
acted with the State Treasurer. He
came to town to make settlement with
Col. Morrow, as Collector ofhis county.
lie obtained receipt from the State
Treasurer for $l8,340, remarkjng as
he folded the little slip of paper and
tucked it away in the inside pocket of
vest:
"Colonel, | reckon that's all Miller
county owes the State; if 1t amt |
reckon you can get the balance by
calling on me at any time"
A week or two ago little newspa-
perpublished in Texarkana, just across
the State line, contained n sensational
article, charging Capt Blythe with
owing the State $l5,000,and indirectly
charging him with being short that
amount. Several of his friends were
much annoyed by the article, and
when one Of his bondsmen asked him
for an explanation, the Captain said:
"WelI, / reckon | owe the State
some money, and If anybody viii set
tie the claim I'll give him more than
that"
"Well Ireckon It's all right Cap,
don't think was doubling your hon
csty,' replied the bondsman, and II is

The Torch Light Procession.

Last night, according to program,
the Cleveland and Thurman Demo-
cratic Club met at the City Hall and
formed into a grand torch-light pro-
cession and proceeded to the Cotton
Belt depot to meet Col. Fishback
Over two hundred enthusiastic Demo-
Gratis joined in the procession, and
when the train arrived at 1920, with
Col. Fishback aboard, they raised a
mighty cheer for our gallant leader.
Mayor Arnold and Mr.. w. T. Burch,
who had gone over to New Lewisville
to receive Mr.. f. and accompany him
here, escorted him to the carriage pre-
pared for him, DIR. G.. II. Wootten, pres
dent of club Zach Few, and Mayor Ar
mold took a seat in the vehicle with the
distinguished visitor, and the process
sion headed for the Huckins House,

ing the carriage.
After arrival at the hotel, Col. Fish
back was called for and in q neat and
appropriate little speech returned his
thanks for the warm reception accord
ed him, as the Democratic representa-
tive. The Club gave him three rous-
ing cheers as he retired to his room.
The false and slanderous report of
the Referee this morning, about the
torch light procession having been
composed of "hoodlums" end "boot-
blacks" is denounced on all sides.
