Baxter. He endeavored to get that gentleman to say that he had resigned the governor's office to Gov.

Really, if no more relevant testimony is introduced before the congressional investigating committee tkan that of yesterday, -the present government of Arkansas has little to fear of congressional interference. The committee was appointed to inquire into whether or not Arkansas has a republican form of government.

Instead of this the counsel of Mr. Brooks are introducing testimony whieh would more properly come before outrage committee. What does the killing of Dickey, and of the wounding of Caulk white men and one eoloretl have to do with thequestion of whether or not Arkansas has a republican government, '-republican in form?
