Governor Makes Another Statement, Giving His Version of the Request
 to Send Troops to This City.

1OASlH HVi DoHdSHey udS gwen out another statement in regard to the recent visit to him from the reform CTS of Hot Springs, in which he is quosed as saying:
 He declared that the members of the reform element were kicking at the very men they had placed in of fee and also declared that despite the fact the men who wanted me to declare martial rule in Hot Springs said tt would be my political death ii that county if I did not act as they desired, they would not submit to a special election for the purpose of se- lecting "a new coroner and hence they seemed to fear that they did not have votes enough to elect the coroner they would name.
 T do not pretend to say which of the two factions is right. but there was request made of me to send the state militia there to take care of city and county government but I did not think conditions warranted this action and so stated to the com mittee that waited on me" declared the governor.
 The committee then said the cor oner would resign if I would let him dictate to me the appointment of his successor. I declined to let this be done on the ground that there would be very great objection from many citizens in Garland county if this was done.
 T proposed then to appoint the man who received the next highest number of votes at the last Democratic pri- mary election for coroner, but this was not satisfactory to the committed then stated that I would appoint some one to temporarily hold the of fee until I could hold "a special elec- tion in order to let the people elect some one to suit themselves, but the 1 committee would not let the coroner resign under these terms and with drew from further conference with me on the subject.
 T think it is generally known that my policy has been to let communi- l ties settle their controversies by the \ tallot wherever there has been a con- troversy as to who should hold some office in some manner left vacant T am in favor of enforcing the law and believe the citizens of the state ! understand that fact, but I do not be- lieve that I would be warranted under 1 existing circumstances in sending the militia 10 take charge of the govern { ment in Hot Springs and Garland county Such an action would make me responsible for whatever might happen under such conditions. ] Besides, it would be very much strained construction of the constitu- tion for me to take such action at all.
 None of the officers in Garland county have called on me for such assistance. as the law prescribes, but on the other hand, they have protest ed that such an action should not be taken.
