CRAIGHEAD ROAD SITUATION
 CRAVE

Little Rock, May 19.-The resig- nation of s. H. Watson, of Jones' boro and L. Fraser, of Monette, com- missioners of the Blackoak-Hancock Road Improvement District, who were forced to resign by a mob in the Craighead County Chancery Court Monday afternoon, were pre- sented to Gov. Brough yesterday af- ternoon by Treasurer Gibson of Craighead County. The resignation of Charles Graz of Black Oak, the third commissioner of the district, who announced his intention of quit ting voluntarily, has not yet been presented to the governor and no official reports of the resignation have been received.
 Up to a late hour last night none of the district commissioners had communicated with the governor. The situation at Jonesboro is acute, the governor said last night, and must be dealt with cautiously. Every effort will be made to give both sides full hearing, and the matter will be investigated by the governor in detail.
 II. M. SOOlty, dbOilCy lOl bhS NiS trict, told Gov. Brough over the telephone last night that 83 per cent of the taxpayers in the district favor the road He requested that the governor make an effort to get in touch with Chancellor Wheatley of Jonesboro. This probably will be done tomorrow.
 The names of Mir. Phillips and MT. Osborn of Craighead county were today presented to the governor as applicants for the commissionerships The governor said, however, that no appointments will be made until af- ter both sides have had a hearing and the fullest investigation has been made. It was also recom- mended that applicants for the po- sitions should have a petition sign ed by a majority of the taxpayers in the district. The governor said an effort will be made to appoint per sons who will be satisfactory to the district, as well as to the state. MT. Phillips and MT. Osborn are said to have been among the 100 who stormed the courthouse Monday af- ternoon.
 Say Bill Was "Railrosded."
 It is said that there has been much dissatisfaction in the district, not only over the Blackoak- Hancock Road Improvement District, but also in connection with the Ozark Trails Road No. 2. It is charged that the Ozark Trails Road District was cam ouflaged through the legislature af- ter bill providing for the Bay Road system had been opposed by MT. Fisher, representative for the dis trict, and had been defeated. The Ozark Trail Road, it is charged, isl duplicate of the road provided for in the Bay Road system and that nothing was given in the lead or the

the orderly processes of justice in his court. It is reported that dur ing the display of belligerency in his court on yesterday he was cool and unperturbed, and that the raw recruits who attempted to stampede the display of judicial favor might as well have been charging hell with bucket of ice water.
 Whatever may be the faults of the divers road systems devised by the last session of the legislature, they must be said to be peculiar to the exercise of it's power by the lawmaking body. Neither Judge Wheatley nor any other judge has the power to amend an act of the legislature or to substitute what the judicial power regards as a bet ter mode of effecting improved means of transportation. Any judge that gives way to the mob is de- serving of the severest censure, and any judge who, as Judge Wheatley, attempts only to set in motion the forces of law as declared by the Legislature, merits the praise due one who has performed his duty.
 We do not undertake to say that the road bills enacted in the last legislature were wise in all their provisions or suited in every re- spect to the requirements of the people of the state; but now is as good time as any to place empha- sis on the position taken by Judge Wheatley, that it is the province of the courts only to enforce the laws adopted by the legislature, and that no gun plays or wild west stunts can be depended upon to intimidate the findings of a fearless judiciary.
 Meanwhile the court does not rec ognize the forced resignation of the lawyers and commissioners of the district, and they will proceed und- CT the law with the discharge of their duties.
 Alex Mcdonald, the party fined and jailed under order of the Chan cery Court, is no stranger to the criminal courts and has a rather unsavory criminal career. A few years ago he made personal at tack on the deputy prosecuting att torney of Craighead county for con
 
 For that offense Mcdonald was tried before Med Donaldson, then serving as justice of the peace on Big Island in Craighead county. Knowing Mcdonald anarchistic tend encies and disrespects for the courts, Donaldson proceeded to hold court with shot gun and imposed heavy fine. McDonald's latest out break, therefore, seems to be ex- pressive of the sentiment of the individual rather than of the com munity. A confirmed lawbreaker and hardened in his attitude of de- fiance of the courts, he simply took advantage of public unrest to add to his career of crime end attempt to terrorize the courts in his latest escapade at Lake City.

opening paragraphs of the bill to indicate it's location.
 If the facts are as presented, the governor said last night, the local representatives would have defeated the bill, and the district would net have been created. The present sit nation, the governor said, has arisen as protest against the manner m which some of the road districts are created. It is desirable that any v;olence be avoided and for that reason every effort will be made to reach a just and equitable solution as regards the affairs of the dis trict, he said.
