MILES DOWNS RELEASED
 ON $12,0O0 BOND

The application for bail of Miles Downs of Boughton, charged with the murder of Roy Stockton, was heard Saturday afternoon before Circuit Judge c. R. Haynie, in the latter's office at the court house, the hearing being conducted in private, all spec tators being barred. After hearing about eight witnesses for both the state and defense and the pleas of the attornies for both sides, the court rendered a decision allowing Downs bail and placing the amount of same at $12,000, which was immediately made and he was released from cus- tody. No examining trial has been held yet and the technical charge against Downs has not been establish ed, it is said.
 The reason for holding the hearing in private is logical one. because of the strong sentiment existing on both sides of the case.
 Attorney Tillman B. Parks of Hope is representing the defendant, Miles Downs, and the prosecution is being assisted by attorney Steve Carrigan of Hope.

 cov Brough was ably introduced by
 p,of c. NJ. Hirst of this city.
 coyernor Brough's address was ab- ,ohtelv free from any reference to nolitics save at one point in his speech where he made a prediction about the pepublican presidential nominee. With |this exception the Governors address was up to it's usual high plane of or .torical excellence. Ills wonderful Iareadv reference" mind with which be recalled the names of famous men, |;mnortant incidents and unusual char
 
 octeristics of individuals in history, held the rapt attention of the vast audience from the beginning. His ready wit, which is too typical of the Arkansas executive, was noticeable throughout the address.
 The Governor spoke of and empha- sized the vital importance of the peo- nle of the towns and citie doing all in their power for the upbuilding of the rural schools and churches which he said would solve the question of keeping the boys and girls on the farm. whereas at present the tenden- cy of these rural young people is to 20 to the towns and cities, leaving the farms destitute of help. In this he dwelt at length of the importance of building the good roads, now in the process of construction in this and many other counties of the state. Gov. Brough said that by the building of good roads, good schools churches, the general morale of rural society would be greatly improved, creating more contented people. He said that in his opinion, although the sentiment is divided on the good roads question at present, future genera tions would in the sections where these reads ale being constructedi rise up and call the people of today blessed.
 Governor Brough in very eloquent manner, told of the wonderful re- sources of the United States com pared with those of other nations, painting picture in words that would

 PROPERTY DAMAGES

Manistique, Mich., April 17.-More than $1 100000 property damage was caused here when the Manistique riv- CT became ragin gtorrent, over ran it's banks and buried many main streets beneath from one to four feet of water. The Goodwille factory was completely wiped out, paper mill was practically destroyed, lime works, chemical plant and many saw mills badly damaged.
 Huge piles of timber to be cut in- to lumber, pulp wood for paper and other wood for chemicals were swept into Lake Michigan and lost. A doz- en houses were ruined while twenty more were under water to the sec- ond floor for several days thereby ruining household effects.
 Much merchandise in home and store basements were destroyed. Warm rains and sunshine melted the unusually heavy snow in forests north of here caused the first flood the city has known in fifty years.

And as is always characteristic of Arkansas present booster-governor, he dwelt at length on the many points of excellence of our own great state, giving number of concrete example of her resources in many lines unequaled by any other commonwealth. He recounted her enviable record in all lines in the late war and in glowing words eulogised Arkansas warning sons, both deceas- ed and living and her patriotic men and women, all of whom did their share in making our state famous during the world struggle.
 The Governors almost uncanny memory of names and faces asserted itself after his splendid address in meeting with old friends here.

ACCUSED ON STAND
IN NEWBERRY CASE
One of Indicted Men Called as
Witness for the Gov
ernment
TELLS OF ACTIVITIES

Grand Rapids, Mich, Feb. 5.-(By
A. P.)-Allen X. Moore, first of the
indicted men to testify, was called to
the stand by the government when the
Newherry elections conspiracy trial was
resumed in federal district court today.
Moore pleaded guilty at first to four
cf the SIX counts. and not guilty as 10
the others. He changed this to "nolo
contendere" on January %.
Moores home is in Grand Rapids, and
lis appearance on the stand caused de.
fense attorneys to call Charles Floyd,
who had charge of the local Newberry
headquarters, to the counsel table.
Objections to the testimony came
thick and fast, but Judge Clarence W.
Sessions allowed the testimony to go in.
Moore told of trip to Detroit with
Floyd at which time Paul King asked
him to visit the Upper Peninsula ard
sound out certain individuals on the
Newberry candidacy. Moore said Is.
Frank Emory, at Kings orders, gave
him S100 for expenses and he received
check for that amount.
Moore SAID he made daily reports by
mail, and after ten days returned to
Grand Rapids. He said Kings secre-
tary called him on the long distance
telephone and arranged another trip to
the north in company with King.
