P|NDALL ELOQUENT
 IN PLEA FOR RHEA
SAYS CLIENT IS GUILTLESS
FORM FIR EXECUTIVE URGES GOV. DONAGHEY TO FREE
 ALLEGED SLAYER.

Little Rock, May 3O.-One of the most eloquent pleas ever made for a mans life was made Wednesday aft ernoon by ex-Gov. X. O. Pindall be- fore Gov. Donaghey on behalf of w. s. Rhea, who the supreme court has said must hang for the murder of Constable Vital Archard near Du- mas. The occasion was the presenta- tion of an affidavit of William Lind sey, negro, to the effect that Rhea was not with the mob of negroes who shot and killed Archard. The only ones present at the conference was sherman Atkinson, the court report CT who reported the Rhea trial, and a newspaper correspondent. Yet, MT. Pindall spoke with all the earnest ness, the eloquence, and the fervor that could have moved him had he been addressing 10000; in fact, with greater, as he realized he was ap- bearing before the court of last re- sort, court not bound by rules of evidence and the fine technicalities of law and precedent.
 Other afiidavits have been present ed to the governor, all of which he has under consideration He has care fully refrained from giving any inti- nation of his course, but those who are familiar with the conditions are confident that Rhea will never be hanged. MT. Pindall, who has de- voted year to careful analysis of the voluminous record, asserts with all the sincerity and zeal at his com mand that Rhea is absolutely guilt less of the crime charged against him; that he was not present at the time of the killing by four negroes whose guilt is not denied, and did not aid or abet in the killing; that Maj. Davis and other negroes who had a personal interest in fixing the crime upon another had conspired to charge Rhea with it; that an analysis of the evidence of the witnesses for the state alone is sufficient to disprove the theory of the prosecution.
 Rhea has all the time assumed the attitude of innocence, declaring that '>s .sjS2,s- asa aRss ,tsst hss e innocent, and that he had no part in the killing.

TO URGE GOOD ROADS
 AS AID TO SCHOOLS
EXAMINER LAUGHTER WILL ASK PATRONS TO IMPROVE
 ROADS TO SCHOOLS

AS a means of increasing the at tendance of rural schools in the coun- ty next year, County Examiner J. M. C. Vaughter expects to make a cam provement of county and neighbor- hood roads leading to the schools. The matter will be brought to the attention of the teachers at the insti- ute to be held here next week, and it is expected that an organization will be effected in each district for the promotion of this work. Prof. Waugh ter's idea is for the patrons of each district to subscribe as much labor or money as they feel they can afford and use the same in putting the high ways in better condition. The dis tricts, he thinks, could cooperate with the regular township overseers, and could also improve many neigh borhood roads which the funds of the road districts do not permit to be worked.
 The plan of Prof. Vaughter is an initial step toward the consolidation of small school districts into larger and stronger districts. "It is a set tied fact" said Prof. Vaughter, that smaller number of strong eight or nine months schools can do much better work than so many small, weak schools that can be maintained only four or five months in the year. When the roads are put in such con dition as to permit, two or three con | tiguous districts can be combined in- to one, and the district can purchase a team and a big hack in which the pupils can be brought to and from schools. This plan has been adopted with great success in many places, but We cant do it here until our roads are put in better condition"
