started his campaign in making charges
that the money interests were friendly

District Attorneyship.
But overshadowing all the fights are
the two statewide issues-woman suf-
frage and the proposed constitution.

that literature is being sent daily to

suffrage, the polls published in yester-

HUGHES ACQUITTED
 OF BACLEY MURDER
Case Went to Jury Without Argu- ment, Much to Disappointment
 of the Spectators.

Batesyille, April 24.-Dr. J. c. Hughes, charged with the murder of Ali Bagley, in Walnut Ridge, Oct. 22, 1910, was acquitted at 10 o'clock last night of charge of murder in the first degree.
 The entire day was consumed ln the arguments of the attorneys. The case was venued to this place from Walnut Ridge and the taking of evidence was accompanied by int tense excitement and interest Dthrough Arkansas.
 A large crowd of spectators was disappointed yesterday afternoon when Clyde Going announced to the court that the case would go to the jury without argument by the de- fense. Prosecuting Attorney Hugh Williamson had just finish an hours argument and the crowd was eager to hear the speeches of Congress man Caraway for the state and Frank Pace, and Clyde Going for the defense.
 All the testimony was registered by both the state and defense by noon yesterday, the case going to the jury at 3:35 p. m.
 Although at a trial in Walnut Ridge last December Hughes for the alleged murder of I. J. Bagley, fath- CT of Ali Bagley, was attended by great excitement, no evidences of ill-feeling has existed here. During the trial at Walnut Ridge the court ordered every one searched who entered the court room. Circuit Judge Ben Coleman announced yes terday afternoon that the case against Dr. Hughes for the murder of l. J. Bagley which resulted in a mistrial and was transferred to In

 am not writing this letter in the interest of any state official un- dergoing investigation. None of them have even seen the letter, but it is right that "he who is without guilt should throw the first stone" and the members who would sancti- fly themselves in the eyes of the peo- pie by trying to abolish all graft within the state departments should be equally ready to abolish little of their own. I know that the farmers of Greene county will be interested to know where some of their money goes. know that there are many of them, notwithstanding the Divine declaration are living on bread alone, and while they no doubt wish to make the life of their representatives in the general assembly as pleasant as possible, yet there are not many who have mon ey to pay for ice in the winter time, or to help designing politicians ad- vertise themselves, and none care to pay eleven thousand dollars in order that a few sports may listen to the continual rustic of silk petticoats.

SIC SEMPER CRAFT;
 ICE IN MlDWINTER
Cough Tablets, Towels and Silk Pet itcoats Figure in Legislative
 Expense Account.

Little Rock, Ark, April 23, 1Slo. Editor Soliphone:
 am sending you herewith clip ping from this mornings Gazette which also contains a report of the special committee to audit the vari- ous departments of state. In all such matters of this kind, of course, it always depends on whose OK is being gored, and the last legislature seemed willing to abolish all graft within the state except its own. A glance at few of the bills incurred by this august body reminds one of carpet bagger days with niggers vot- ing supplies.
 In addition to the items mentioned in the Gazette, there are $2.5O for cough tablets and $9.15 for ice in midwinter. There is also large bill for water (not firewater), the legislators not being able to drink this city water. They also spent S24.OO for towels which goes to show that they had rather keep their bodies clean than their con- science
 A large item of graft done open and above board is the usual custom of employing beautiful girls as committee clerks to do nothing un- less it be to entertain a few sports in the legislature. I am giving you a list of committee clerks who held positions in the legislature the last session. Three of the men who held clerkships were newspaper men who sat in the legislature and reported the proceedings to papers which paid them a regular salary for so doing. But the legislature saw fit to make them a gift of four dollars day to further the interests of some designing politicians whose po- litical futures depended somewhat on little newspaper publicity. There were three very beautiful girls among the eight stenographers employed by the legislature and each of them has an office of her own in Little Rock. They never left their offices a half dozen times i during the session to do stenograph- ic work for the legislature. If they will give me ten dollars day, l will do all the work that is right for the state to pay for, though of course, haven't the bland smiles and charming voluptuosity that many of these possess.
 They vote themselves 25 cents a day for stamps, and l have no doubt that many of them write as many as three letters week sometimes. They carry back enough stationery to last them a lifetime.
 The legislature employs post mistress Ca most beautiful girl, of course-none other need apply) and pays her five dollars day, when the mail could all be delivered by carrier just as well.
 The item of committee clerk amounts to eleven thousand, one hundred dollars for the last legis- lature. This does not include the bill for clerks that are really need ed-just those who sit around for ornaments. There are something like twelve jjanitteFs tair Ira $ wing four to five dollars a day and a numbs
