Gave the Solicitors q frost.

From the Little Rock Democrat
II has frequently been asserted on
what appeared TO be fairly good author.
ity that Ex-Governor Clarke, although
holding the position Of national commit.
teeman from Arkansas In 1900, refused
~ contribute anything towards the
national campaign fund or 10 aid and
assist those who were sent out by the
national Democratic committee IN sc.
curing subscriptions for the campaign,
1.-The Arkansas Democrat has on two
different occasions mentioned this re.
port without eliciting any response.
Now come the three solicitors who were
assigned 10 Arkansas by the national
committee and over their own sigma.
tnrcs assert that they not only received
no aid and encouragement from ex.0ov.
erpor Clarke, but were treated TO
decided frost instead. The Hot Springs
News" Of Tuesday gave publicity to
communication from these three gen.
tlemen, ~ follows;

itively identified in the district court today
as one of the men who so brutality as

before Judge Stull. Before noon o jury had
been secured and part of the evidence was
in. All attempt was made to prove an
allbi for the prisoner, but without sue
cess. The taking Of evidence was concluded
after dinner. Several witnesses we're ex-
amined. including Miss Goldsby, who is in
very poor health, and was brought into
court on her fathers arm. The accused
also testified, and after argument, the case
was submitted. The jury was out but a
few minutes and returned with a verdict
Of guilty.
In passing sentence Judge StuIl said
he regretted that q man Of such a decidedly
brutal disposition could be found among
any people. Abbott was apparently unRf-
fected throughout the trial or when the
long sentence was pronounced. He is evil
IDENTIFY a bad man. His age is 32 years,
nine years Of which have been served in the
penitentiaries Of Kansas and Missouri. Or
the way from the courtroom TO the jail
he INDUCED in cursing the judge and jury.
