KUKLUXING IN LONOKE
Good Citizens Are Determined TO Put a

kukuxing in Lonoke county has be-

night. seem to know nothing of the
shooting. A Gazette representative
caliea at the jail this morning and
vas escorted upstairs by Sheriff
Walls. Count had little to say, but he
did say that he was not guilty and
heard the shooting nearly a mile
away last Monday night, after 10
o'clock
Trimhle said he was surprised when
e officers arrested him on this
charge as he was in bed asleep near
where the shooting occurred, and was
aroused by the reports of the guns,
which lasted for several minutes. He
cid not see any one pass his house.
When questioned as to whether he
knew the negroes were camped near
his house he said he had understood
there were three negroes from town
out there.
The arresting of Wilcox, Counts and
Trimbie is causing much sensational
talk in the neighbour cod in which
they live The whitecapping prac.
tce has been going en- near there for
some years. The band of whitecappers
refuses to allow a negro to work or

Hon. Joe T. Robinson, one of the
leading attorneys in the state, will
push the prosecution, Notwithstanding
the prisoners wanted to retain him
to defend them.
Many negroes have left their crops
in the vicinity in which the shooting
occurred. The affair is very much re-
g"etted by the good law-abiding citi-
zens CT Lonoke, who will be unit in
making up money and assisting in the
prosecution of the guilty parties. Judge
Cnapline thinks it is only matter Of
tine until whtecapping will be stop

The examining trial of the three
men arrested will probably take place
next Tuesday.
The citizens of Lonoke are deter
mined that the good name of the town
shall not suffer from such affairs, as

this one did, some distance from Lo-
