GOV. DAVIS ON
 NEGRO EQUALITY.
"None So Long as We Can Pull a Trigger and There Are
 Pistols Around"

Gov. Jeff Davis was one of the speakers at a Democratic rally down in Texas Wednesday, and he made ono of the characteris- tic speeches for which he is noted.
 His subject was Parker vs. Roosevelt" and he denounced the defendant in the case roundly as a monster. ' On the sub ject of racial relations, the Dal- las News quotes him as follows:
 "The only claim that Mr. Roosevelt has to distinction, is that he shot a Spaniard in the back at San Juan Hill. Then he took negro home to dine with him. Is there a radical here. (One man held up his hand). Do you approve of that? You say he didn't do it? We'll, you haven't sense enough to be a Democrat. Can you think of anything dirtier, or nastier than that eating with a nigger? l would rather eat out of a trough with hog than to eat with a nigger. 1 would rather drink pot liquor out of a pot with a hound pup than eat' with nig- ger. Suppose a nigger should go up to your daughter at church and say, Miss Alice, may l see you home?" You would shoot him as quick as a flash. l would, and I am governor of Arkansas. Suppose Booker T. Washington should walk up to Miss Roose- velt-a sweet, lovable girl, l know her well-and ask to walk home with her. What would that sweet girl do, her father having entertained Washington in his parlor, and having dined with him in his own home?
 <Let me tell you, we are not going to have any n g g e r equality down here as long as we can pull a trigger and there are shotguns and pistols lying around loose. And, gentlemen, believe in the Providence of God;- I believe that this calamity will be averted:
 On the subject of pardons. Gov. Davis said:-
 ''They say 1 am a pardoning governor. We'll, did grant 600 or 700 more this year. have an idea that we put people in the penitentiary to reform them, and when a man is reformed he should be pardoned. I am proud to be called the pardoning gov ernor of Arkansas. When l get to the great white throne, l am glad that 1 shall meet lot of good old fathers and mothers that have made happy"
 Speaking of corporations he said:
 After hearing your governor and ex-governor speak today l have come to the conclusion that you are suffering in Texas from an overdose of corporate greed. The first year 1 was governor 1 raised the assessment of rail- roads s5, ,5OO,OO0 and the rail- roads kicked. Next year l raised them SIP, ,OOO,0 900 more and the next year SZO, ,OOO, OOO more. The governor, state treasurer and au- ditor constitute a board to assess railroads to Arkansas, and 1 am going to recommend that the as- sessment of all corporate proper ty be made by that same board. The local assessor can assess the little fellow all right, but they take the buck ague when they go to assess the property of a big corporation. If you fellows (the legislature) are straight and hon. est, the corporate lobby will have to go out of business. !"

 to Awful Death.

III y ICCC DClOW to Awful Death. lS~-H
 !he story of an awful accident
 Is related by many witnesses
 4 the tragedy in the inquest Caring Sunday afternoon before Justice Smith at the undertaking frooms of R. F. Drummond, where -xa i'1ry consisting of w. B. Hur- VI Fey, Chas. Mason, A. B. Drum Anond, w. D. Sprigg, T. M. Bell, J. Magoffin, L. F. Young, Sam Dorr, A. J. Stevens, G. c. Martin, J. F. Hoofman and CIV. Beard heard the evidence of the case and returned the following verdict:
 DO NOT FIX THE BLAME. We, the jury, find that the said J. w. Chitwood, A. Reese and Frank Gibbons came to their death on the 18th day of October, 1904, while employed as laborers in the erection of a bridge on Crooked creek, about five miles from Yellville in the state of Ar kansas, and that their deaths were caused by the falling of a girder which they were assisting in placing in position on the bridge, and that the accident oc- cured by reason of the false work upon which they were working being faulty in it's con-
 fFoetion:"
 The witnesses before the act ing coroner's jury were Thos. Madden, foreman of the Phoenix Bridge Company, who had in charge the construction of the bridge; Herman Cochran, time keeper; o. l.. Bunker, l.. B. Nc Guire and John F. Wilson, fellow workmen.
 The substance of their story of the accident is as follows:
 The men were at work about 10 o'clock Saturday morning on the second crossing over Crooked creek of the White river line, and were removing girders from a flat carpby means of a hoising bent, which was resting on a bent of false work. One girder was swinging clear of the car in the rigging used in the litter gir- der, when the bent of false work either broke or kicked out from under the hoisting bent, allowing this and the girder to fall 9 or 30 feet to the creek bed belpw. The men killed were on the car and were thrown to the ground with the girder. One witness, l.. B. Mcclure, testified that he saved himself hy jumping from the car to the track when the cracking of the false work began, but that the other men had no chance of escape.
 Frank Gibbons was found dead. his neck being broken in the fall and his right arm badly bruised.
 J. w. Chitwood of Estill Springs, Tenn, died on the way to Cotter, his head being split wide open, and the gray matter falling out. His remains were shipped to his home Sunday night.
 A. Reese of West Point, Ky., had his right thigh broken, his right arm and left knee badly bruised, and died after reaching Cotter. His remains were also shipped home Sunday night.
 w. P. McKelly and J. w. Bren- non were also injured seriously, and were brought to Newport that night and sent to the hos
