LIQUOR PETITIONS
NOT CIRCULATED HERE
Efforts to Repeal Statewide Prohibi-
ton Law Not Yet Eextended to
Pine Bluff.

The report printed in the Little
Rock Gazette and Democrat yesterday
to the effect that petitions to repeal
the statewide prohibition law were
being circulated in Pine Bluff and
other cities in this state, is, so far as
this city is concerned, an error, as
those who know" locally state that
no such move is on here.
The report is to the effect that a
movement is one to secure the sigma
lures of at least $4,000 voters asking
the repeal of the statewide prohibit
ton law, the Going liquor law, and
to submit to the voters of the 70
counties in the state the question OF
whether they shall remain dry Or in
a very few instances return to the
old "wet" condition, existing before
the passage of the bill by the gener-
al assembly in 1915, which became eff
fective January l, 1916, and to per-
nit the resumption of the liquor traf-
fic under stringent regulations.
Ben l.. Griffin, member of the
last house. and Frank Witt, of Con-
way, are at the head Of the move
ment,e and it is claimed that petitions
have been circulated in Little Rock
and Argenta and many signatures
have been obtained, but if any petit
tons have been circulated in this
city, it is impossible to learn who
circulated them, or to find any who
will acknowledge signing one.

PARDONS BOOTLEGGER.

Little Rock, June Ex-Governor
Hays yesterday granted his first par
don to man that had been convicted
of bootlegging. The recipient of his
clemency is Al Stewart of Scott coun-
ty, who was convicted February 26
of the illegal sale Of liquor, and SEN
fenced to one year in the penitentiary.
The pardon was recommended by
Judge Paul Little and Prosecuting At
torney J. S. Simmons, who stated that
at the time Of the conviction, which
was the first in the state under the
Newberry act, it was agreed that ap-
plication would be. made for pardon
at the expiration Of one-third of the
sentence. Judge Little writes that
Stewart "is very ignorant and had
never heard tell of such law being
passed."
The records of the penitentiary
show that there are now 81 convicts
in the institution serving terms for
bootlegging.
The governor has relieved fine of
$40 assessed against Alex Scott of Hot
Spring county for gaming.

ANXIOUS
To &c HIS Side
BEFORE PEOPLE
Superintendent of Hospital
for Insane Promises to
Show Up Board.

Little Rock, June 21.-All records
in the board of control investigation
which led up to the attempted dis
charge of DR.. E. P. Bledsoe as super
intendent of the state hospital, were
Thursday morning filed in Pulaski
circuit court, Second division, where
they will be reviewed on a writ Of
certiorari by Judge Guy Fulk.
In this court the question to be de-
termined is whether or not there was
sufficient cause for the discharge of
DR.. Bledsce, and in order to determine
this the two sides will probably be
invited to present testimony. This
will give DR.. Bledsoe a chance to make
a real defense, for in the hearing his
attorneys were denied the right to
produce testimony not to the liking Of
the board members.
DR.. Bledsoe intimates that he will
be able to introduce some very inter-
esting testimony if given the oppor-
tunity, and should Judge Fulk finally
dismiss the case, he still has chance
in the chancery court, where quo war
ranto proceedings are pending. This
suit makes the board the defendant
and requires it to show that the good
OF the institution was uppermoSt IN
the dismissal of DR.. Bledsoe.
~ do not want the people of Arkan-
sas to think l am fighting for the
position" said DR.. Bledsoe in discuss
ing the case Thursday. Il can make
much more in private practice, but !
am fighting now for the people of Ar
kansas, and when they know the mo-
tives which prompted this attack up
on me, and by whom it has been
waged, l think they will thank me.
The courts will no doubt give me a
chance to at least get part of this
before the public.
when took hold of that institu-
ton it was running about as smoothly
as any in the South, and was prob
ably the best equipped, and nothing is
being neglected even now, but if this
board is permitted to carry out its
plans, things will be different"
