Chairman Mann then lntrodu ced
Hon. w. E. Ferguson, of Wood
ruff county, candidate for State
Senator, who made short talk.
He regretted the absence of his
opponent, Mr.. Berry, on account
of physical inability, and paid him
very high tribute. He then
went into the question of rotating
the senator, and asserted that it
is clearly Woodruff S turn to fur
nish the man. He went over the
ground showing that each county
had had senator in turn until
1890, when it was Woodruff s
turn. In the election that year
Hon. L. Il. Stanley, Of Woodruff,
was beaten by Mr.. Hill, a re-
publican or populist, Of the same
county, and, he said on this &C.
count they have not had their
senator, and Crittenden county be-
ing responsible for his defeat, it
is now Woodruff county's time.
He argued the matter IN its sew
eral lights and Is sincere in his
belief that he is right. He also
paid the ladies some attention.

A Point Against the Magowana.

Cleveland, Dec. John A. Barnes
yesterday won an important point in
HE Barnes Mcgowan litigation for the
possession Of the child Edith Bcryl
Barnes, recently kidnapped. Judge Ong
dissolved the injunction restraining
Barnes from interfering with Mrs.
Barnes Mcgowan in the possession Of
lha child. The Judge said 1t was nccs-
Sary to dissolve the injunction IN order
10 give Barnes standing in the Erie
feurls. where the battle for the pos
SESSION Of the child started. 1t is
claimed by the MagOwans that when
lh~ Oklahoma court granted the Barnes
hiv0rce Mrs. Barnes Mcgowan was
given the custody Of the child and
that. therefore, the subsequent APP
petntmeil Of a guardian by the Cicve-
land court WAS void.
