Turns Down Equalizers.

Little Rock, Dec. 3.-Judge Joe Asher yesterday afternoon denied the motion of the Pulaski county equalization board to compel local building associations to produce their books in court to ascertain a basis of proper tax assessment.
 Judge Asher held that the stock should be assessed against the in- dividual stockholders and not against the corporations.
 The Peoples, the State, the Am erican and the Commonwealth as- sociations were defendants in the suit. According to the ruling, the statute provides that the building and loan associations shall be as- sessed only on real estate and tangible personal property, and the books, it was held, were not need ed to show what real estate and tangible personal property the as- sociations had, as this was listed already, and the assessment as to these. items was not raised by the board.

NEGRO WHO KILLED WHITE
 MAN IS STRUNG UP BY MOE

Forrest City, Dec. 3.-(Special to The Press. )-Edmond Patrick, ne- gro murderer under indictment for killing Bert Nichols, a prominent young merchant and planter oper- ating a business three miles west of Forrest City on the evening Of November Il, last, was taken from the jail at Forrest City at l2 o'clock last night by mob of one hundred masked men and hung to Ia tree about three-quarters of mile east of town. Few citizens knew about the lynching until this morning, so quietly did the mob do it's work. The jailer stated he was called to the door of the jail by knocks on the door and that as soon as he unlocked the door he was seized and the keys taken from him. Members of the mob then en- tered the jail and took Patrick out, hurrying to a point outside the city limits where he was strung up. Patrick and Nichols had con- 1 trocersy over a settlement and fol- l lowing the exchange of hot words the negro shot and killed the mer-
 chant. Officers who arrested the
 negro spirited him away and land ed him ill the penitentiary in Lit l tie Rock for safe keeping. Subse- lquently he was brought back to Forrest City for preliminary trial and was bound over to the grand jury under a" charge of first degree
 murder Recently when circuit court convened the grand jury returned a first degree indictment against the negro and he was placed on trial, but the jury failed to agree upon a
 verdict. A second trial was had
 with the same result.
 Incensed because of this delay lin securing conviction friends of ;the dead merchant organized a mob
 last night and dealt summary pun
 ishment to the negro.
 Nichols was very popular lyoung man in St. Francis county
 He was the son of the present tax assessor.
 The negro claimed Nichols had threatened to kill him and had made a movement to carry out the threat when he fired on the white man.

he canvassed the counties from Phillips to and including Clay on horseback and carried every county in Northeast Arkansas. He stopped the Greene county government, and said at that time the construction forces were building the Iron Noun tain road through Greene county to Knobel Five years ago MT. Me Rae spoke in Paragould in the in terest of the democratic ticket.
 In opening his address this after noon he paid high compliment to Judge Driver for the vigorous charge he delivered to the grand and petit juries this morning, stat ing that when Arkansas had officers as able and fearless as Judge Dri- yer the laws would be enforced and crime would be minimized.
 The speaker said he wanted to see the press of Arkansas free and fearless in it's condemnation of cor ruption in public life. He thought the newspapers ought to take the lead in driving incompetent and |self-serving men from office,, and he was glad to note so many of the papers were pursuing this course.
 He discussed at length the finan- cial condition of the state, and said one of the most humiliating spec tacles he had ever witnessed was a bunch of warrant holders sitting on the steps of the new capitol build ing trailing after the sheriffs and tax collectors as they went to the tax money due the state. He said If elected governor he would call the members of the general assem- bly into a conference and devise a method for putting the state on a cash basis without issuing bonds or long term notes.
 He opposed Dr. Broughs town ship assessment plan, his efficiency commission plank and millage tax for the support of the state univer- sity and other state institutions. He believed the common school sys- tenn ought to receive first attention, because it is the foundation of the states educational structure. He propriated by representatives of the people, as the constitution pro vides.
 He argued that the state peni- tentiary ought to be self-sustain- ing, that it was ridiculous to con- tend that twelve hundred able-bod- jed men could not earn enough as wards of the state to pay for their board, keep and other expenses in- cident to the operation of the pen itentiary. He believed in pure elections, had assisted in drafting the new primary election law that was defeated by the house in the last general assembly,, and pledged himself to use his efforts to have such a law placed upon the statute books.
 He thought the best plan to han de the revenue problem was to give the state tax commission pow CT to see that all property was as- sessed on fifty per cent basis. He said this would not raise the taxes |of the ordinary citizen but would place upon the tax books much property that now escapes taxa
