 "Dear friend :-I am glad to see your paper advocating calm, fair and serious consideration of the candidates in the race for Governor. 1 appreciate especially your ,.editorial condemning such unreasonable islanders as an impu- tation of dishonor to so good man as the people of Cleveland county know Judge Wood to be. I form ed my first definite opinion of Judge Wood from the good things the Cleveland county people, who knew him better than l did, told me about him
 Permit me to say also. Mir. Edi- tor, that although 1 was once a supporter of Governor Davis. I have been compelled to decide against him, the chief reason for doing so is that I became convinc- ed that Gov. Davis is not in favor of enforcing the criminal law, Che pardoned one of the boldest whis- key men in our county) and that his own life is not clean enough to justify a moral man in supporting him for the high office of Govern or. It required strong proof to make me believe these things, be- cause 1 did not want to believe them. But when the facts are made plain what Is an honest man to do but accept the truth1 know a good many of citizens of Cleve- land county, and am proud to call them my friends. and I know that when they become convinced that any candidate for Governor Is grossly immoral and is being sup ported by practically all the blind tiger and other criminal element in the state, they are not going to vote for him. If they will inves- tigate they will find out that Gov. Davis is just such a man.
 Very Respectfully,
 B. F. Condray.
 P. s. When Gov. Davis spoke here two of the three men who met him at the depot were blind tiger men.

THE POMP BROWN MATTER.

The following, which appeared in last weeks Plumerville Herald, is self-explanitory
 "The Atkins Chronicle has the Jeff Davis gall to tell the people, apparently without blush. that the noted Pomp Brown, the negro whom Gov. Davis pardoned out of the penitentiary when he was serv- ing a term for attempted rape, is now living unmolested among the good people of Plumerville. We consider the statement islander pure and simple. Pomp Brown is not here and has not been here since his conviction. and if he val ues his hide pins fee he will never be seen here again. The Chronicle man should do our peo- pie the justice to correct this state- ment; in fact we insist on a correc tion. Should the governor or who ever furnished the slanderously false information wish to spank him for beng man enough to make the correction. he can plead that 1t is necessary for him to make an oc- casional show of fairness to keep his readers thinking bim fair in his abuse of Judge Wood. We have read the statements as to the influence and standing of certain men who signed the petition, and have not said word. They are good men and doubtless had their own reasons for thinking the negro should be pardoned, but the people of this place will not tolerate rapist, and when the honor of our

And now comes some of the Jeff Davis organs and claim that the Blind Tiger men are for Judge Wood for Governor.

All the bets that we know of being made now in Drew county on the Governors race is upon the basis of Woods majority.

P0MP BROWN JUROR SPEAKS.

St. Vincent, Ark Feb 4, 1904 Editor Arkansas Democrat
 I was recently shown a clipping from the RusselvilIe Record. newspaper published at the former home of Jeff Davis, stating that friend of Davis who attended the speaking of the candidates for gov ernor at Morrilton had said that the girl { (Arkie McCulloch) who was alleged to have been assaulted by Pomp Brown, the negro, had a bad reputation and her father still worse one 1 live in a remote part of Conway county, some twenty miles from the scene of this unhappy affair, and do not know Arkie McCulloch personally, but do know that 1 was one of the ju- TOTS that tried Pomp Brown, and that the affidavit made by Arkie McCulloch and read the day of the speaking was substantially what she swore to in the trial, and that her reputation was not called into question in the trial, nor was 1t mentioned the day of the speak ing. 1 was present and heard Judge Wallace's denial that the af- fdavit was the evidence before the court, when he was confronted by myself and other jurors, then and there, with the statement that her affidavit was what she swore to on the stand.
 am at loss to conceive how any man or set of men, to further the ends of a candidate, could so shamefully call into question the character of any woman, without the slightest proof, and particular ly this crushed and humiliated wo- man who was dragged into court and forced to face the world and detail the acts of this black fend. All over the state l am advised that the henchmen of Davis are justifying his act in granting this pardon on the ground that she was not a good woman.
 Why do they not go to the town of Plumervlle where she was rais- ed and resided until recently and procure affidavits in proof of their slanderous lies? They dare not try it, and prefer, like their illus trious leader, to conduct a cam paign freighted with lies and in fanny. l was once a follower of Davis, and had some confidence in his claims of being the poor man S friend, but I now view him in his proper light, blatent demagogue, and l am glad to say that there are others of my former brothers who are coming to the same conclusion, and predict that on the 2oth of March the .one-gallus and patch brooches fellows, which Jeff so ia miliarly calls us, will demonstrate to the world that we are lovers of the purity of our homes and wo- men. Yours respectfully,

As there IS to be q legallzed l Primary election this year It may be well for the voters to under stand that they vote only III their township, and no where else. Qualified Democratic cleo tors, who have lived in the State twelve months. in the county six months and in the town ship thirty days will be entitled to vote and no gthers.
 The Pulaski Go. Wood Club now has a membership of 1900 and since the Democratic vote of Pulaski county at the last cleo tion was 2,501, it looks very much like Davis goose was cooked in that county. Giving the county 5000 votes in the coming election, and counting everyone for Davis who has not joined the Wood Club, it would still leave Judge Wood 600 ma jority in that county The thinking, reasoning men who are supporting Davis, have giv- en up Pulaski, Jefferson, Monroe, as well as many other counties 
 Hon James K. Jones, Chair man of the National Democratic Committee is opposed to Davis for Governor; Hon. Carroll Arm strong, Chairman of the State Democratic Committee is oppos- ing Davis; Senator Berry and all the Arkansas Congressmen are against him; all of the State Of ficers, with, perhaps, single ex- ception, oppose him. Nearly ev- cry Circuit Judge and Prosecut- ing Attorney iii the State are against him; all the Chancellors, except four, his appointees. are opposing him; nearly all of the ministers of the gospel of every Church organization are against him; nine tenths of the lawyers are opposed to Davis; three fourths of fthe doctors are against him; the merchants are nearly solid in their opposition to him, ninetv-fve percent of the teach CTS andsthe newspapers are op. posing him; besides thousands of the most enlightened farmers and mechanics that can be found are out and out against him.
 Can 1t be possible that all these people are mistaken in the kind of man Jeff Davis is? Their means of informa tion certainly entities their opinion of Davis to careful consideration.
