ASK PARDON OF
 MUNN'S SLAYER MANY SIGNED PETITION Friends of Jesse Whitley, Murderer of Faulkner County Boy,
 Seeks His Freedom.

A lengthy petition for the pardon of Jesse Whitley of Des Arc, slayer of
 Wesley Mum, is published, accord ing to the new ruling of Governor
 Hays, in the Arkansas Democrat of Tuesday afternoon. The petition is signed by II members of the jury, Prosecuting Attorney J. B. Read, sev- eral officials of Prairie county, and several hundred citizens, occupying nearly two columns of space in the paper. The petition recites that the killing was done in a fit of jealous rage, and that the young man had never before been known to be guilty of misconduct and that he will make good citizen of pardoned.
 Whitley was convicted and senten- ced to 21 years Imprisonment in March, 1914, and has therefore served about two years of his sentence. Be- cause young Mum, who formerly lived at Vilonia, and was nephew of Dr. J. B. Mum of Vilonia and J. C. Mum of Conway, had won the af- lection of young lady at Des Arc, of whom Whitley was suitor, he shot Mum to death in front of store building in Des Arc. Mum was unarmed and it is said the killing was an unusually cold -blooded one. Eleven of the jurors voted for electrocution when the case was tried, one holding out for acquittal, and a compromise verdict of 2l years in the penitentiary was finally agreed upon.
 Two brothers of Mum, one of whom now lives in Oklahoma and the other in Texas, were assisted by his uncles in the prosecution of the case. Whether they vii ltake any steps to remonstrate against the pardon is not known.

CROPS HURT BY
 SPRING DRQUTn RAIN IS BADLY NEEDED Precipitation in Past Two Months Only 3.8O Inches, Less than
 Half Normal.

With only one good rain and a few very light and scattered showers since March 20, crops in Faulkner county are beginning to show the need of moisture, and if the present spring drouth continues many days longer the condition will become serious.
 While fairly good stands of cotton are reported wherever the plant has come up, the continued cool weather is making it's growth very slow. On the other hand thousands of acres plant ed after the present drouth set in have not yet sprouted and unless rain comes at an early date to bring this cotton up the crop will be so late as to be at great disadvantage. Young corn is beginning to suffer for lack of moisture in many places, according to reports of the Log Cabin Demo- crat correspondents this week. Since March 20, period of prac- tically two months, precipitation has been recorded on 13 different dates, but in most instances the amount has been so small as to be practically valueless to crops. The total rainfall for this period has been 3.80 inches which is less than one-half the nor nal precipitation for that time. The days on which rain has occurred and the amount of precipitation in inches and hundredths is as follows:
 March 20, .12; March 25, 100; Apri 2, .66; April 5, .23; April 2, .22; Apri Is, or; April IA, .01; April 15, .65 April 20, 40; May l, .16; May 2, .19 May 3, .02, May 15, .O9; total, 3.S( inches.
 The dry spring, however, has beer an advantage in giving the farmers an opportunity to get their land il a perfect state of cultivation ant keep the crops free from all vegeta tion. In all cases where the soi was broken deeply and has been wei pulverized, it is said there is no i'm mediate need for rain, either for cot ton or corn. Winter oats and wheat however, have been badly damaged by the drouth, and the crops of these, i is reported, will be very short.
