BROUCH DEFENDS
 PARDON RECORD
CHALLENCESC COMP ARSON
Governor Also Says Will Recommend Normal Building Funds in His
 Final Message.

Speaking Wednesday afternoon al
 the annual luncheon by alumni of the
 State Normal School, Gov. Charles
 H. Brough defended his record in the handling of pardons, declaring that with the single exception of former governor Fishback, he has issued few CT pardons than any other governor of Arkansas in recent years. He men, toned the matter of pardons Tn re- spending to the toast, Governors, y declaring that authority to use the pardoning power brings upon the gov ernor one of the perplexing and ire quently unpleasant phases of his work. He asserted that the number of par dons granted by him has been "won- derfully small" in view of the im- mense number of applications and pc titions submitted to him during his tenure in the office.
 The fact that great prominence has been given two applications of par don recently submitted did not deter Governor Brough from discussing the subject frankly. He said he was well aware of the criticisms called forth by his decisions in several cases, and also admitted the very likely possi bihty that he has made mistakes in several instances. Governor Brough also recalled his recommendations to the legislature in 1917 and 1919, when he recommended the creation of a pardon advisory board of six men. He said the legislature sent him word both times that it preferred to have one man-the governor-play politics with the pardon power, rather than to entrust it to six men. He said there are now no fewer than 1,500 apph- cations and petitions for pardon CT executive clemency, on file in his oi- flee.
 In a statement to the Log Cabin Democrat Wednesday afternoon, Gov ernor Brough also re-affirmed his in- terest in the State Normal, declaring that he would recommend in his final message to the legislature the allow ance of appropriations large enough to provide the school with adequate buildings. He spoke highly of the new administration building, and commended its design which will per init the addition of large auditorium to the rear. The construction of this auditorium is one of the improvements at the school which the governor de- clared he highly favors.
 Following his address at the alumni luncheon, Governor Brough visited the stores and business places here, meeting many acquaintances. He re- turned to Little Rock at 6:20, with State Auditor Hogan Oliver, State Superintendent J. L. Bond, and State Treasurer Jim Ferguson, other state officials here for the Normal commencement.

J. M. c. VAUGHTER FOR COUNTY
 CLERK.

Prof. J. M. c. Vaughter authorizes the Log Cabin Democrat to make for maj announcement of his candidacy for county and probate clerk of Faulkner county, subject to the action of the Democratic primary of August 10. Four years ago Prof. Vaughter made a race for this office and was defeated by only 90 votes, out of a total of over 5000 cast He also re- ceived the Democratic nomination and was elected circuit clerk for two terms, 1898 to 1902, and served four years as state senator from this district. It is, however, as teacher that he is best known Next July will round out B years which he has spent in this profession, 45 of which were in Faulk- ner county. Many thousands of chil- dren have come under his instruc- tion and influence as a teacher and numbers of Faulkner county citizens who now have grandchildren attended his schools. He has now retired from
 the profession and his friends feel that it would be a just reward for : his long and usually poorly-paid ser vice in the school room, to elect him to the office he now seeks.
