fl5T1: Ii nave OinltIeu aiy III iftS tlO beet, done ii,tcntiuraiiy. i believe have nearly finished the task l had i'm pos,.,I ,,,il myself iiioii ftiist st rose to addtess you. I-have but little more toI add. 1 wish, however, 10 let the peo- pic of Aft<ansas know who are our fnor- ;iists and retorners-w our modern ssaiyias aud Lathers are. bePe, as 20 over their names, that the reporters vii De particuiitr in putting them all down. Fne first, wh3 heads tho list, is Absaloin Fowler, who, upon the whole, Is q reputable man, but whose partlzan feelings aud political lhtole- reuce Is almost uneqaailed ia any coun- ssY. fe is the partner, in the practices of the law,of q gentieman who will, it $ reported, hy the permission oi the. people, be my successor here.

 The second indieaual on the list is. O. Y. Howell. an individlal who was once . clergyman. but, Heaven forgive hin for his apestaey, he E clergyman no longer. lie isnow lawyer, whose dexiefisy and adroitness ln his prates. sion has been rather too great for the good of his repltatiou. When he reads this speech he will understand my allu son.

 The third is indseW Scott, an indi- yidaal who was once a Judge Of our Supreme Court, but whose nomination was rejected SIX or eight years ago hs the Senate, ii consequence Of lis hay ing killed ina q duel his brother Judge. This individual has, since that period, { killed another citizen, for which he was indicted, tried, and cleared. How ma ng4more he nay add to ethe list list, ttiine oii- fY can determine.

 The fourth Is Henderson Lewis, the i partner of the accuser, in this case, an individual who has resided in Arkansas about eighteen mouths, and who is not ! draal. pe1haps, upon all average, more tita .nihe times q week. = lie gentle maH from Alabama, perhaps, can say something of this man.

 l'ae fifth is Hardy Robinson q, par ] doacd convict, who was indicted year. CT two ago for mnrderinga boy, and who vas convicted for maaslaaghter, J ant sentenced to two years imprison mest, ,and was recently pardoaed by tile ] Governor.

 .Nhe sixth is Fhomas Wyatt Johnston, l wlo, vtlea sober, l% Il gentienaniy and l honorable man, but whose drunken and | hIoojv broiIs has caused a disfignrationf ii ilis lace with scars, T naltilstieH Of { hls hodY, and the loss of an eye, in 2 1 manner in which, for his sake, will not l detail to the House. am sorry 10 find 1 his name upon the list with Air. Cum mius.

 The seventh is John Sayior, an ind- { vidual who is tailor by profession, and 1 of course all excellent jadge of judieiaII decisions and gentlemanly department.

 The eighth is James I.emmen, whose. avncaiion already gwen.

 The ninth and tenth on the list arr Washington Smith, and Alfred Legate, 1 q hov. who are industrious and worthy 1 Ga5orers, but who prove but little, and wbo arc not perhaps known beyond tho ! immediate neighoorhood in which they l reside.

 The eleventh is John Cook, the re, taAer of half piats, and the keeper of Il aii'ae pin altey.

 The twelfth and thirteenth are EIar- 1 vey Caldwell and Bennett H. Martin, ] whose frailtics are equal to those of af,g other in the country, and who would have as much cause for sayina 'sdo as 7ee ufuise, da,a not aS soe do osusetrc5, Is any Individuals within my knowledge.

 The fourteenth IS Gilbert siisfshall, 1 who proves, that, at his house, in ihe3 spring of 1928, he saw Judge Johnson aud otlhsers excited bs liquor. Ike is al worthy man, and ] doubt not but that he has spoken the truth.

 These are the virtuoas putitana who 1 have assaled Judge Johnsona Ought not.

But 10 be scri- ous: ] give it as my opinion, that those charges would never have found theirl way to this House, if 1t were not that Judge Johnson is my relatife, and that that rel tive Is the Delegate from Ark ansas. This is ssthe head and front of his offnd,ag" "--this constitutes the u6ole of his sin. The movement here, this ef- iaft to transfer our local iends to this Hall for settlement, is intended purely for political effect 1t home; 1t is intend- ed entirely for Arkansas consumption.
