MT. Donaghey Speaks.

In the afternoon the court room was again crowded to the doors to hear speeches by MT. Donaghey and Mir Nickname. MT. Donaghey, who spoke first declared that Senator Davis had reflected upon his honor and integrity, but that until the present campaign opened the senator had apparently had the utmost conti- dence in his integrity. ''When Senator Davis opened his campaign for the Senate in my home town of Conway" MT. Donaghey declared, he said I want to refer 10 your distinguished fellow citizen, George W. Donaghey. who has protected the state from a steal of $500. 900, tha he said this, but if cannot bring the afhda- wits of hundred men. every one of whom voted for Davis for the Senate, who will swear that he made that statement. l will withdraw from this race in three days. Why has Senator Davis suddenly come to the conclusion that am the greatest arch fend in the commonwealth!
 Mir. Donaghey declared that he was no orator, but that he thought oratory was taking the attention of the people away from facts. lie declared that the state tax levy Is the same today that it was when Powell Clayton was governor of Arkansas, although the property valuations have increased forty times. This IS accounted for he declared, by the political graft and greed which have secured hold on the state
 He declared that the state needs n business administration. Mir. DonaShey declared that the charges of unfairness to labor had been brought against him by carpenters in the em- ploy of Caldwell X Drake and that the build ings in question had been built by union men. He spoke at length about the state capitol cou- tract and other matters, following ill q large measure the lines of his usual speech

MT. McFarlane Speaks.

By the time MT. McFariane rose to speak the crowd had become tired. and only handful was left Mir. McFarlane therefore cut his speech short He paid his compliments to Dona ghey declaring that he was not qualified to be the governor of the state. He said he showed that he might know something about building a house, but that he did not have the uualifca tions to fit him to be governor He de- cared that the impression which seemed to prevail that Donaghey growing rapidly in strength was mistaken one and that he believed Donaghey was losing ground. MT. McFarlane devoted most or his time to dis cussion of state capitol matters.

NOTES

During the progress of his speech Senator Davis and Mir. McFaran- co-operated in chal- longing Mir. Donaghey to bring suit against McFarlane to prove the falsity of his charge that Donaghey had planned to make T. L. COX a partner in the state capitol contract if he Donaghey) secured it. These facts were re- garded as indicating apparent underestimate ing between Davis and McFarlane.
 Neither Mir. Donaghey nor Mir McFarlane en- gagged in joint debate with Senator Davis, the latter left immediately after making his speech for Springd4le. where he was scheduled to speak Tuesday night Neither did Mir. McFar- lane and MT. DonaGhey engage in joint de" bate between themselves although both spoke
 Mir Donaghcy announced at the beginning of his speech that he did not propose to hold joint discussion with any candidate, and that he would not reply to any thing that Mir. Me Farane might say in his speech.

 'I have been damnabiy misrepresented by this speech and by the speeches of this man, Mr. Griffin declared 'So man in this house can say that l asked him to vote for George ". Donaghey I denounce the man who will undertake to con,aminate my organi- zation and assail my reputation.
 Mr. Griffin called attention to the fact that he had formerly been q warm supporter Of Senator Davis two years ago. II said on the stump" he declared. 'thar 90 per cent of my people would vote for Davis, and by the eternal. we did it. I voted for him two years ago, and did anyone then say that Griffin had sold out the Farmers Union vOte?'
 Mr. Griffin said that Davis came to him before the opening of the present campaign and told him he would put him on the ticket for state auditor. and that they would whip h. out of that capitol punch, but that be declined the offer. He declared that only last Friday Davis went to the Executive Committee of the Farmers Union aud told them that his (Gritnn's) official head must come off.

farmers organization, when he is the enemy of their brother laborers' organization.
 An! l see in the press of the state. statement emanating from Ben Gritin's paper there in my race for the senate l characterized George DonaGhey as Honest George Donu- Ghcy." l don't characterize him now as dis honest. gentlemen.
 It is stated further in this article that should have said in that speech that he saved the taxpayers of this state $S0O,O0O.O % fin the attempted state house steal. Gentlemen. say to you today that never such words these escaped my lips this earth. and brand the statement absolutely false. could not have said that and told the truth, because George Donaghey did not save the state $S00,000.00 in the attempted state house steal, nor any other sum of money.
 Before he ever raised his voice in this matter, I was fighting these state house thieves the public hustings. in the courts of the county and in the legislature. He on the State Capitol Board when l became governor; I saw that he had itching palm to get charge of the state house contract; l saw that he had a desire to be the contractor on that great building, and I know that in 1903 he put in bid for the erection of the state house, under the name and style of "Dona- ghey Construction Company.
 Donaehey failed to get the contract, and his construction company was never perfected
 Gentlemen of the Farmers Union. Donaghey Is not your friend. He boasts today that he is worth $500,000.o0; that he began fifteen years ago as q bod carrier. and claims that he made this money the fruits of honest. legitimate toll.
 If he has made five hundred thousand dol" lars in fifteen years, he has skinned somebody, hasn't be? He hasn't made this money off the poor people of this country, because they had no contracts to let, but he had made his money off the rich people of the land and if elected governor, fellow w-citizens, he would look up to the rich and opulent-the men who have given him his wealth.
 Stop study. think my friends where are We going whither drifting. l have no personal ill-will against MT. DonaGhey, l have no personal grievance with him. some of his friends have been my warmest friends, and most ardent supporters. but l know that if he should be elected to this high office, that the opposition will have captured the state government, and will laugh you to scorn after you have made your mistake.
 Gentlemen, don't be deceived-dont be fooled by this stalking horse. Stop before 1t Is too late-make no mistake; weigh well your ballot you cast, and see that it is done in the best interest of our cause.
