THE DAVIDSON
ARt INDICTED
CHARGE VERY UGLY ONE
THEY ARE ACCUSED OF BRUT-
AL MURDER OF THE BAR
HAM GIRL.

Harrison, Jan. 16.-One irdict-
ment, covering eight counts, charg-
ing Otis and Lair Davidson, jointly in
four counts, with first degree murder,
and Lair Davidson, separately in four
counts, with being accessory before
the fact, was returned by the Boone
county grand jury at $50 o'clock yes
terday morning.
The Davidson brothers, who are &C
cused of the brutal murder of Miss
Ella Barham, near Pleasant Ridge in
November, were Immediately brought
into court for hearing the reading of
the Indictment at the Jail. No action
was taken in the case yesterday, how
ever. as the accused were at once al
lowed to enter into lengthy consulta-
ton with their attorneys, ex-Judges
B. D. Hudgins and E. g. Mitchell.
The defense in this case is allowed
AZ hours in which to enter any plea,
and it is believed that the attorneys
will take all the time that is allowable
before entering court with their
clients again. Accordingly, the wit
nesses in the case were dismissed by
the court until Monday morning, jan
uary 20, at o'clock, when it is be-
lieved that both state and defense will
be ready for trial.
Judge B. D. Higgins, his son, Oscar,
who is assisting him, and Judge E. &.
Mitchell, the defense attorneys, will
make no statement as to whether they
will ask for a change of venue, but it
is generally understood that the case
will be rushed Immediately to trial
next week. 1t is likely that Friday
morning the Davidsons, through their
lawyers, will make plea, and if this
is done it seems assured that the case
will be tried at once.

From Fridays Daily
James H. Harrod of Little Rock has
announced that he will enter the SEN

Jim Harrod is the man somebody will
have to beat, if he enters the race.
He is a strong, clean man, and Dem
ocrat from start to finish. He has la
bored increasingly for the good of the
Democratic party in the state OF Ar
kansas for 80 years, and has never be-
fore asked an honor at the hands of
his fellow-citizens. He is full Of vim,
determination and unbounded love for
Arkansas, and should he be honored
with the senatorial toga he will make
worthy representative of the state
at the nations capitol-one whom her
citizens can point to with pride.

"Of course my services to the

"If | enter the race | shall have

such great favors at the hands of the
party, ought to be willing for the

GOV. ROBINSON'S FIRST
LEGISLATIVE MESSAGE
MAKES SPECIFIC RECOMMEN-
DATIONS ON THE
TAX RATE.


Little Rock, Jan. 1S.-One Of the
most important features of the first
message of Governor Robinson to the
legislature delivered today, so far as
the taxpayers are concerned, is his
recommendations on the tax rate. He
recommends a loan to meet the exist
ing deficit, the bond issue to be under
carefully considered safeguards. The
only other plan is to increase the gen
eral tax rate. lie recommends that
the state general rate be decreased
from 81 to l 35-100 mills, the sink
ing fund rate of Is mill, the state
school rate of mills, and the Confed-
crate pension rate Of l IL mills re-
main unchanged, that the state capt.
tol rate of - mill be discontinued,
and that an educational rate he be-
lieves will better serve the cause of
education, and he recommends that
this be distributed, 40 per cent to the
University, 10 per cent to the State
Normal and 10 per cent to each of the
agricultural schools He says that
there are enough funds on hand and
in sight for the state capitol, and
points out several methods by which
more revenue can be raised without
injustice or an increase in rates.
The governor advocates a strong
corrupt-practices act and limitation
of campaign expenses.
