CAPTAIN HICKEY
 DENIES REPORTS
TtVIF OFFICER DECLARES PROP. ERTY DAMAGE AT FORDYCE
 WOULD NOT EXCEED S3J
Also States Testimony Against Him Was by Unfair Politicians and : Followers of Gov. DOnaghey,

Jonesboro, July 31.-Capt l.. D. Hickey, of Company G, who was dis missed from the service of the State National Guard on yesterday as re- suit of the riot among the negroes and soldiers at Fordyce on Saturday l nigh, arrived home this morning. Capt. Hickey was seen and when ask ed for statement, replied:
 ''Well, 1 have not, at this time. a great deal to give out for publicatio but l will say the reports concerning the riot in every respect sent out from Foldyce have been greatly ex- aggerated; in fact, there was no riot of any consequence, and the damage done to property would not exceed $35, and that there were only two negroes hurt, and neither of them at all serious, both of whom were seen on the streets before I left last night don't believe there was a Jonesboro man responsible for the trouble, and I do positively deny the report sent out that I defied the officers to ar rest any of my men. The investiga- tion by Governor Donaghey was un- fair and prejudicial to my interests, he acting as the court and jury. l have demanded trial by court mar tial. and feel sure that upon proper and fair trial I will be fully vindicat- ed"
 Capt. Hickey further added that the better people of Fordyce expressed great sympathy for him and his com pany. MT. Banks, one of the wealth. fest men of the city, invited them all to his home. He said, too, that the testimony given against him was by unfair politicians and followers of Governor Donaghey.
 "The people of Jonesboro are not at all in sympathy with the soldiers and I wish the public not to hold against the city what few men of the state guard are guilty of. In he company there are some splendid fellows from excellent families, but some who do not stand so we'll. The unfortunate occurrence is greatly deplored by all good citizens and in fact condemn- ed"

JUDGE SMIT6.WILL
 SUCCEED HIMSELF
X UNIQUE CONDITION ARISES IN SECOND JUDICIAL DISTRCT
 BY RESIGNATION.
Judge Smith is the Nominee For As- sOciate Justice of the
 Supreme Court.

Little Rock, Ark, July 31.-Follow- ing the presentation of his resigna- tion as circuit judge of the Second District Judge Frank Smith, Demo- cratic nominee for associate justice of the Supreme Court of Arkansas, was appointed to succeed himself yesterday afternoon by Governor Donaghey.
 To the casual reader this will seem absurd, but in reality it is the only thing that could have been done un- der the existing circumstances. The people of the Second District were so confident of the nomination of Judge Smith that during the same primal y in which he was nominated they nominated Hon. J. F. Gautney of .Jonesboro to succeed him. Judge Smith resigned in order that a va cancy might be created i'll time for the name of MT. Gautney to be voted on at the September election for the office of circuit judge. Judge Smith has served only two years of his term and had he waited until time to take his place on the supreme bench then a special election to choose his successor would have been a neces- sity.
 However, as matters now stand some time after August 9 proclamation will be issued by Governor Donaghey ordering that a special election for the choosing of a circuit judge for that district be called on September |9, or 1egular State election day. In that way the expenses of a special election will be avoided and the name of MT. Gautney can be voted on as at a regular cleo ion.
 As the election is only five weeks off it can be clearly seen that Mr. Gautney has very little time over the allotted thirty days in which to have his candidacy certified to and his name put on the ticket as the Demo- cratic nominee for circuit judge. l At first, according to Governor Donaghey, no other name with the exception of that of MT. Gautney was entertained for the appointment 10 fill the uneXpired term of Judge Smith, but when the matter was presented to him he stated that it was impossible, as he had so many cases 10 attend to and so much business to look after just at that time. Then it being an l man who could fill the position com petently and on account of the fact that Judge Smith resigned simply on MT. Gautney's account Governor Don aghey then appointed Judge Smith to succeed himself and to fill out his own unexpired term.
 Judge Smith will in all probability continue to act in the capacity of cir cult judge of the Second District until Mr. Gautney is sworn in on the first day of November or the 31st day of October.
 The proclamation calling for the special election to be held September 9 will not be issued until some time after August g, as the law requires that the special election must be held within thirty days after the issuance of the proclamation authorizing it. This proposition of resigning and then Icing appointed to fill your own uneXrired term contains a very pret- ty example of political resourceful- ness.

scented, have been eliminated, and Miss
