didn’t know the place. The charge
has been made that we have only
253 legal voters in the township,
but by reference to the assessor's
book it is ascertained that there is
now on his book 485 taxpayers of
voting age and the delinquents
have not yet been assessed. The
charge has been made that wedidnt
poll 404 legal votes in the primary
but the grand jury counted them
and there was actually 404 by their
own count. Matheny says we vot
ed negroes and minors; he don’t
know that we have some good old
democratic negroes that always
voted in primaries and support
the ticket; and there was actually
one minor voted, llis appearance
will deceive any man and this boy
who lives near the township line
voter! in White River and then
came down here and voted, and
voted both times for Matheny;
surely Matheny wouldn't object
to that. Then a lot of preachers
were here that day and, if any of
them voted, they are undoubtedly
not a class of men who wrould vote
differently in Big Bottom to what

He favored amending the road law
so that each township could levy
its own road tax, just as school
districts do He would make no
long string of promises of what he
would do; the people knew him
and could rest assured that their
interests would be safe in his
hands.
Lastly came Matheny who ac
knowledged to being the man from
Sharp and said he didn't dispute
that the judge had a perfect right
to run. He had voted for the
judge himself and says Arnold has
treated him with more respect to
day than any time during the can
vass. Ballots were carried to the
county clerk’s office and thafcs all
he knows about them. Admits
that they were tampered with but
not by his friends. Claims to be
the rightful nominee and exhibits
certificate of nomination from cen
tral committee. [The editor would
like to state here that a certificate
of nomination is very light evi
dence that a man is the nominee,
for this same certificate contains
the name of Thomas Jones as one
of the nominees for J. 1\ of Big
Bottom.] Charges that Jeff Long,
of (.'hrist.!n.n, should have served
on the committee to re-count and
abuses him for not doing so. Says,
with a queer kind of forced smile, <
that shows he don't believe his own
statements, that he expects to go
to the legislature and will now dis
cuss some of the measures he fa
vors and says if some other mem
Dor does not introduce Ins me&s- ,
ures he will do it himself. Never
heard of the charge that he east
slurs upon Big Bottom and didn't
want her vote. Denies the charge
and wants all the votes he can get.
Favors taxing franchises At this
juncture some one in the audience
asked how much tax he paid, lie 1
looked bewildered, stammered, '
threw his head back and blurted
out, “Oh, not much.” Favors re
form school and anti-trust law and
would vote for a measure similar 1
to the King bill. Favors branch
insane asylum and wants it located
at Batesville. Favors amending ,
the road law and would abolish the
office of county road commissioner.
Wants a railroad commission and ;
favors strengthening present com
mission so it may assess railroad
property. Favors amending con- ^
stitution and would favor a term
salary of $500 for legislators.
Charges that Arnold is not a dem
ocrat and wound up by appealing
to the ladies to use their gentle in- i
fluence in his behalf. <
