J; I do not like to sling mud but
| Marcus Bone has opened the ball
i; and I will give you a little infor
ty mation about this little cheap dude.
I The truth is Marcus is the cheapest
crook that has ever held of lice in
ty this county and here is the proof,
ty Below is the law as set out in the
ty digest including all amendments
;* and any Circuit Judge will say that
•. 1 am right.
The latter part of Section 6390 Kirby’s Digest re
“And no prosecuting attorney or !iis deputy snail
receive any fees unless he personally appears and
prosecutes in the case, nor shall any court tax any fee
where such officer does not appear and personally pros
ecute. (This has been amedned to allow a fee where
a plea of guilty is entered. )
There is not a word in the criminal law that per
mits a fee for Deputy Prosecuting Attorney when a
case is dismissed in J. P. Court and if our Circuit Judge
or any other circuit judge in the state will tell you so
I will quit the race. Law is based on reason and right.
If a man is guilty he should have to p iy, if he is in
nocent he is entitled to have h t. dismissed with
out paying the prosecutor. That is reason and law is
based on reason.
THE PENALTY
Sec. 1888. If any officer shall charge, demand or
receive any more or greater fee for his services than
are allowed by law, or shall demand, or receive any
such fee without having performed the services for
which the same are charged, such officer for every
such offense shall forfeit to the party injured or against
■whom the same may be charged, the amount of the
fee illegally charged and five dollars for each item il
legally dmanded, charged or received, with cost to be
recovered by action, and shall also be subject to in
dictment for extortion. (Which would mean removal
from office.

I, R. R. CASE, Justice of the Peace within and tor
Riiddell I ownship, Independence County Arkansas, do
hereby certify that the above and foregoing is a tru
and correct copy of the records a they appear on my
docket.
Witness my hand on this the St 11 lay of April, 1 91 V
ROBT. R. CASE,
Justice of the Peace.
You will observe he was sub
ject to indictment on five counts in
one day. How many were there
in the two years?
I want to say here with all the honor I have that
I have never nor will I knowingly commit an official
act that will cause any one to regret voting for me.
1 have stood up for the right when 1 could have
made large amounts of money by quitting the fight
when I stood firm.
It was his duty to uphold the law and he was
using it to swindle his fellow man. He should re
turn the money and thank the grand jury for not
indicting him. Then go way hack up in Izard coun
ty where he came from and start down the road a
little straighter. He represented the State iu this
and I do not believe you will trust larger state in
terests to a man who will throw your case out of
court for five dollars.
His Jurisdiction was only in the J. P. Court but
we find Marcus SO HUNGRY FOR THE EASY, LONG
GREEN that he continued it in the circuit court. Some
prominent people at Batesville were indicted for gam
bling and he w-ent to the Prosecuting Attorney and got
him to dismiss the case on the theory that it should
be done, when it was not merit nor right that was
prompting him in this but they had just slipped Mar
cus a ten sp >t For verification of this ask either of
the men mentioned below who investigated this on the
grand jury: R. R. Ratton, Newark; Joe Outlaw, Oil
Trough.

I call your attetion to a letter that was supposed
to be written to J. C. Johnson that reflected, on me. *!
I he writer of this letter had Mr. Johnson return this *!
letter to him about 30 days ago and Marcus is circulat- *>
ing a supposed to be copy which is type written and
type signed. Marcus tried to get this supposed to be $
copy sworn to by the writ; but failed and you will
notice that it is not sworn to. He says it it, not neces
sary to have it sworn to. Then why did he try? 1 hi.; 'r
alone should keep the leUer from being considered by <?
any honest man. iF HE WILE GET THE WRITER l O '!
SWEAR TO THIS LETTER 1 WILL QUi i Hit. R r '!
When i was on the Board of Control i Lad to do with
purchasing supplies for about three thousand •ole
for two years. We did about half a million dollar. !*
worth of business. I bought abuot twenty-five thous- !■*
an<! dollars worth of groceri s from D. L>. Ai! .ms at •'
Batesville and a large amount of dry goods from Al- '■]
len Babcock at Batesville and if either of them will S;;. -J
that 1 ask them for one dollar I will quit the race. I T
brought in outside merchants to bid on the stat \ R
plus and incurred the ill will of the Little Rock whole. j)
sale houses and not withstanding they don’t ik j»
if you will get one of them to say they ever gave me
a dorlar 1 will quit the race.
He is alarmed about my being road commissioner •!
and senator and I here advise that I have worked twel
ve days for the road which would entitle me to $3G H
which I have not drawn and 1 have spent $150.00
out of my pocket boosting the road. If it is necessary |
for me to resign I will do so and try to get some good
man appomted but I wont recommend Marcus as the
railroad will be assessed about $60,000 for this road ?.
and Marcus would throw our case out of court for , »
dollars a throw. ’ jfj
