Mexico City.-Hundreds of people
of this city were treated to an unex-

Is bulls, which had just been brought
in from the Nopalan ranch for use in
the bull ring, escaped from the corral
at the railroad station and ran ram
pant all through the central part of
town. The animals were of the most
vicious breed and they tackled every
moving thing they came across. They
were at large for more than five hours,
and during that time they killed one
woman and wounded II other persons
with their horns.
1t was early afternoon when the cry
was raised by the yard employees at
the railroad station that the bulls had
escaped. The animals tore through
the opening and into the street. They
charged in body upon dulce vendor

The depredations of the bulls soon

police were powerless to stop their
progress. People fled into their homes
and places of business; doors were
shut and barred, and for a time all
traffic on the street was suspended.
The cocheros, for one time in their
lives, had to relax from that spirit of
independence which they ordinarily
take delight in showing, and there
was a whipping up of the horses to
the red and yellow hacks as they fled
from the wrath of the bulls. few
poor horses were removed quickly
enough to prevent onslaughts being
made upon them by the Infatuated ami
mails which quickly ripped them open
with their horns and then continued
on their journey of carnage through
the town.
The big electric street cars seemed
to tsntalize the bulls more than any
thing else. A San Angel car was at
tackled from the front by one of the
animals while it was bowling along at
full speed The bull was killed by the
blow which the heavy car gave him.

nlent No. IL. Amendment No. 10
proposes to establish as a part of
our laws what is known as the mi
tiative and referendum, which sim.
ply means to give to the people the
power to vote on their own laws, if
they want to do so, and say whether
they will put up with bad law
that corrupt legislature might
foist upon them or whether they
will vote it and vote it out of ex-
lstance. And also give the people
the power to propose and vote into
existance law that the people may
want, but which on account of cor
ruption they may be unable to get
passed by their legislature. In
other words Amendment No. 10
simply proposes to give the people
themselves controlling influence
over the business of making laws,
instead of leaving it altogether in
the hands of the l35 members of
the Legislature.
l am for the this Amendment No.

in the hands of the people and less
power in the hands of the office
holders in Little Rock. | am much
more interested in the adoption of

questions appeal to you as sound

tive in the Legislature, / ask that

Pocahontas star herald., 1910-09-02
from II. NJ. Crockett

To the People of Randolph county;
As You, doubtless, already know,
/ am a candidate for representative
from this county in the next Legis.
latnre. / realize that l will not get
to see all of you before the election,
and that you are all entitled to
know the kind of man | am and the
kind of measures and laws | favor,
before casting your vote either for
OF against me in the coming election,
and hence | am taking this method
of addressing you. / have always
been a laboring man, and private
citizen. / have never held any
office. l, therefore, believe that |
know the needs of the laboring
people and private citizens of the
county better than one who has
spent much of his time in public
Office and thus removed from among
the daily walks of the common
people.
If elected to the Legislature
shall favor law to require non-resi-
dents TO assess all their property in
this State including the money they
have loaned upon mortgages here.
You know that the trusts and loan
companies now have thousands OF
dollars loaned in this county and
all over this state and hold as secu-
Iity therefor first mortgages upon
the farms and other real estate of
our people. And you know that
these loan sharks do not pay a cent
of taxes upon this money they have
loaned here among us. They tell
as that they should not pay taxes on
it in this state because they live in
another state and may have to pay
taxes on it there; and they tell the
assessors IN the other states where
they live that they should not pay
taxes on this money there because il
j. invested in Arkansas. And Sc
they pay no taxes on this money
anywhere. This not only knock,
tur county and state out If our just

mentioned, and give the poor man
an equal chance with the rich in the
courts of our country.
am in favor of giving to our
justices of the peace the exclusive
Jurisdiction of all misdemeanor
cases, and of leaving the grand
juries to investigate only felony
cases. This would put the trials of
the little misdemeanor cases closer
to the places where the parties and
witnesses live, and would be less ex-
pense, and would let the parties be
tried by and among their neighbors,
and would give more importance to
the Office of justice of the peace,
and would cut down the expenses
of the circuit court. But l am not
in favor of the present law which
gives the deputy prosecuting attor-
ney the power to file an information
against sny man in the county whom
he may wish to prosecute, and CON-
pei the justice of the peace to issue
warrant and subpoenas for wit
nesses and the constable to ride all
over the county serving the papers,
and witnesses and jurors to attend
trial, and them maybe it will turn
out that the deputy prosecuting at
torney had no grounds whatever on
which to start the case, and the man
comes clear, and the justice of the
peace and constable and witnesses
and jurors get no pay whatever for
their services. / say am not in
favor of this law; and think it is a
bad law and is being greatly abused
and a great hardship is placed on
the officers in making them do this
work, and then, if the defendant
comes clear, get nothing for their
work. Aud besides it makes it too
Q lsy for some innocent man to be
prosecuted, who may be has incur-
red the illwill of the deputy prose-
cutting attorney or may be of some
neighbor who goes aud reports to
the prosecuting attorney, and the
case is started, because the party
starting it does not have to pay out
cent whether the fellow is con.
victed or not. But the innocent
man is often mace to pay out a law
yer's fee and other expenses fighting
the case, when may lie there is
nothing at all in the case. | believe
that a cost bond should be made in
all such cases, by the person who
starts the prosecution so that if the
defendant proves to be innocent that
the officers and jurors and witnesses
can get their pay out of the cost
bond. In this way the person
starting to prosecute a man would
make tolerabIy sure there was
something in the case before making
the cost bond and starting the suit.
There are two amendments pro.
posed to our state consultation.
which we will all be called upon to

OF those with whom we have not
had the pleasure of meeting.
First of all | wish to thank the
people who have so kindly invited
me into their homes while vending
my way over the hills and through
the valleys of our good old county.
| not only have their names on pa

would only take pleasure in return
ing the favor.
Now as / was pressed with my
work and having TO serve a week
or more as a juror in court, it cut
my time short but | have sacrificed
everything possible to meet and
talk with the voters all over the
county and my encouragement is
such that it justities me in feeling
that confident that | will receive
the majority or greater number of
votes cast for Asses ,or on the 18th

too glad to invite you to my home

only ask you to give me a fair con-

Now in conclusion / want to say

who see fit to help me in this race
