Robinson for governor and were advertising his candidacy by displaying huge cards bearing 'hls name behind their bars, leaving the impression upon the voters that these cards were displayed only in saloons in Pine Bluff I alone am responsible for these cards being placed i'll the saloons and without the knowledge or consent of Hon. Joe T. Robinson
 in his speech Govsrnor Donaghay in ferred that the saloon men of Pine Bluff were the only business men yho were advocating the election of Mr Robinson, but I will state posi- ively that every business house in tha city displays these same cards md net only displays them but the business men warmly advocate the alQction of the Congressman.
 I will go a little further. I'll pay Governor Donaghey's fare from Little Rock to Pine Bluff, or any of his nsnchmen, to come here and show ne the head of any reputable firm, merchant. banker, business man or armer that will say that he is a upporter of Donaghey.
