COY. JONES DENIES.
[ Ark&nsas Gazette. |


 While Gov. Jones was in Fort Smith the first of the week a report was circulated that he had conclud- ed not to enter the lists foc United States Senator. In denying this rumor to Fort Smith reporter he said:
 II am candidate for this office because I want it. and 1 will be 9 candidate until the people tell me they do not want me to have the office. How the report started l do not know, but l want to say in the Times that it is absolutely false. | am in the race, aud will stay in It to the end, and 1 expect to be e,eeted. There are great many live ques- tlons to be exploited in the next congress that want to be heard on, and l believe that the party de- mands man there who will live in the present and not in the past. This IS what base my campaign on and whether 1 am the successful candidate or not l am going to do all that eau to get the office. The people ot this State have honored me with their suffrage before and l think that they will again. will not open an active campaign for some months yet, but when do l expect to be heard throughout the State, ane when l have finished the people will know where I stand on the live issues of the day. l will not thrash over the deal issues of tbe past, but will address myself to what the day and the hour demand of a representative of the people in the hafis of Congress.
 There has been no rumor in circu- lation in this part of the State that Gov. Jones had concluded not to en- ser the race tor U. s. Senator Tie act is. it has been generally under tood that he has been . candidate or this office ever since he was first I ected Governor. The rumor that in circulation here is that he is t in the race when it comes to ming against Arkansas good , ea Senator Berry.

Philippines, viewed a few fights from the rear, got his name in the dispatches a number of times and then returned to California, is pres ident. The cartoon represented Sam Hose tied to tree with a fire under his feet and big Southerner firing into him with pistol in each hand. At the right was another picture represent ting white man chasing negro with lariat, while tc the left Columbia stood tied and weeping. The cartoon was an out rage upon the character of the Southern people and it made my blood boil with indignation. To have been true, the cartoon should have further pictured the deed of Sam Hose, which was to enter the house of a farmer, brain him with an ax while at supper, murder the child and then outrage and murder the wife. Should not so brutal 3 deed, whether committed by white man or negro, in Massachusetts or Georgia, be punished in just such a manner as was Sam Hose? Itis never the good negroes, or the good
 white men either, for that matter,
 who get hung. It is always tbe

 Before the jury retired for duty, Judge Grace told them that they should pay special attention to those conducting saloons without license, if there were any In Jefferson county. He said the local papers have charged that there are num- Der of unlicensed saloons in this city and 1t should be investigated. Judge Grace told the jury that probably the ones that made the charges could give them the right informa- tion. He also said that there were several prisoners in the county jail that would have to live.on the coun- tY all the summer at a great expense fl the jury did not investigate their respective cases and dispose of them at once.
