Western Newspaper Union News Service
 Fort Smith.-The fight in the muni- cipal administration circles branched off to the board of improvement, when the commission held a special meet ing and decided to instruct the city attorney to take whatever steps were necessary to prevent the improve nent board from exceeding what was termed fits authority" The building of a water system in the Park Hill addition, owned by Harry E. Kelly, chairman of the improvement board, which was held by the commissioners to be too expensive, has caused the trouble. Members of the commission stated Kelly was using the city mon- ey to improve his property. Among the charges made was that ST 300 had been expended to supply the resi- dence of J. NJ. Penney, a member of the board, with water. The Penney residence is the only house on this particular line, it was charged at the meeting.

CASES IN SUPREME COURT
Attorney General Norwood Gives His Opinion That Rice Is Not Ex-

Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Governor Donaghey has already be- gun receiving the mountain of letters that was expected following the pub lication of the news that the supreme court has affirmed the decision of the lower court and will not interfere in the Earl Gilchrist case The first let ter was from Grand Crossing, H., and reads as follows:
 We see in this mornings paper that you have been appointed to set the date for the execution of Master Earl Gilehrist. Of course, the law in Lit tie Rock should at all times be en- forced to the full extent of the law, but as it stands in this case in our judgment, Earl has committed an awful crime, but he played the part of a criminal while being in a fit of anguish and by all rights he should be punished, but if you can do so in another way, we ask you in the name of our Almighty and humanity's sake to do so because the country hash { the name of executing children, such as foreign barbarious countries do"
 The governor has made requisition upon the quartermaster's department for empty boxes in which to store the expected avalanche of letters and petitions. The case is not before the governor even as yet, as no petition has been made to him in regular or. der for communication of sentence or pardon by those interested.

Governor Donagheys Opinion.

When asked by Southern farm publication for an expression on the cotton situation, Governor Donaghey replied as follows:
 Replying to your telegram I will say that there is no question but what cotton should bring a better price than it does now. The farm CTS of this state have decided upon 15 cents as the price to hold for. There is a demand for every bale, and 15 cents should be obtained The good weather for gathering the crop caused a larger percentage than usual to be ginned in this state. Our crop is un- doubtedly short and do not believe it will reach 900000 bales. To stop ginning and refuse to sell at the present price is the only remedy"

 Forrest City.-Nathan Lacey, the negro charged with having attacked Mrs. Thomas Cox at her home, near Forrest City and who was captured after an all-day hunt, was dragged from the county jai1 by a mob and lynched.
 The mob was composed of several hundred men, formed and armed with sledge hammers and crowbars, who battered their way to the negro'sl cell. Lacey was dragged out into the open, and, with rope around his neck, was marched to an old brick yard near the Rock Island railroad, about a mile from the city, and hanged to a telegraph pole. The ne- gro was suspended in the air for a few seconds, then let down in order that he might make statement or utter a prayer.
 More dead than alive, he could only utter a plea for mercy. He was again pulled up by the neck and left sus- pended. The mob then dispersed, leaving the body hanging. The mob was not 6 riotous one There was no drinking and not shot was fired by any member of it. It is estimated thaat about 300 men took the negro to the place where he was lynched.
