GOVERNMENT MAY
STOP FISH KILLING

MACON, July 5.--The United States gov
eminent will very likely be appealed to on
account of the wholesale destruction OF
below Macon.
People living along the banks Of the
river say that the dead fish float down
stream in car load quantities and the
stencil is unbearable. The cause of the
trouble is only conjectural.
Some have said 1t must be due to the
placing of lime in the stream for the pur-
pose of killing a few fish, and the effect
is worse than was intended. Others say 1t
is due to poisonous sewage that dumps in
to the river. The authorities are being urg-
ed to take hand and see IL remedy cam
not be found.

DAVIS COARSENESS.

Ernest Baxter, who witnessed the
Evening Shade, having to be called
down by the circuit Judge for attempt
ing to provoke difficulty, writes as
follows:
ut seems that Gov. Davis considers
that his position as governor gives him
the right to attack citizens who have
done him absolutely no personal harm,
and when they resent being called
cringing towards and contemplate
curs,' and accused of carrying pistols
to kill him. he sneaks behind his posi-
tion OF state officer and says I'm
governor. and you know | cant fight
you In other words Gov Davis uses
his position to insult people, and,
when threatened, uses it again to pro-
tect himself from their wrath. 1t is
quite evident that Mr.. Davis wants
somebody to attack him SO he can
pose as a martyr. Those who best
know the people OF Arkansas, and in
particular the high strung gentlemen
of this district. are aware of the fact
thai such tactics as he is engaging in
will eventually give him his chance
The man wants to be looked upon as
probable second Goebel. and dra-
maucally exclaims: IF they kill me

and that if he did own any he was

property of any kind assessed for

is comparatively a poor man, 4 fact
which testifes to his integrity as a
