He said he did not wish to be bound by any such iron clad promise. and I have acceded 10 the wishes of the ministers and given them man in whom they have the greatest confidence"
 Governor Davis Places Responsibility
 This statement is taken by many to raean that Governor Davis has turned the matter over entirely to the minis- ters of Hot Springs and that any mis- steps made in putting on the lid will be blamed by Governor Davis to the ministers and to the prosecuting at. torney they selected. It is believed that the statement is in effect an an nouncement that the whole matter has been turned over to the minis ters and that Governor Davis has talk on this means of keeping promise made during the campaign for polit- teal effect.
