Brig. Gen. Thomas n. Anderson, com

yesterday outlined IN the foregoing
words what he believed TO be the best
course to pursue in the far east. He
expressed himself as follows when
asked his opinion Of the results likely
to follow the installation Of the new
secretary Of war:
The greatest eXigency with which We have 70

it we should bring the best talent We have
The governor general should be, first OF all a
statesman He should have the dictatiOn OF the
course to be pursued and the military repre-
sentatives should carry out the orders Of the
governor general implicitly, but preferably in
their own way
As # is, Gen Otis is both civil and military
general in the island Exercising both Of these
functions, he IS the most absolute and arbitrary
ruler on earth, the car OF Russia not excepted
The military power should, in my opinion be

mean this as a criticism Of Gen Otis, for he is
vested with this dual power and must do the
best he can I believe that the task he IS trying

Sketch Of IngersOll's Career.
Robert Green Ingersou was born in Dresden,
n Y, August II, 1888 His father was a Con-
gregatiOnal minister Of such broad views as
frequently to cause dissensiOns between himself
and his parish In 1913 the family moved TO
Wisconsin and then to Illinois where the sons
boyhOOd was spent With his brother Eben he
began the practice Of law in ShawneetOwn,
Ill Eben was subsequently sent 70 con-
gress- Both engaged in politics and continued
their activity in this direction until 1857 when
they removed 70 Peoria TO give wider scope to
their ambitions In 1850 Robert was q demo-
cratic nominee for congress from the Peoria
district but was defeated. The partnership
between the brothers continued for p years
with some intermisSiOn. At the outbreak Of
the civil war Robert was q strong abOIitiOnist
and enlisted in the union army, afterwards be-
coming colonel Of the Eleventh regiment Of
Illinois cavalry and * years later he united
his fortunes with the republican party.
At the close Of the war he was appointed at
tOTney general for Illinois. In the national re-
publican convention Of 1876 he proposed the
name Of James O. Blaine for that party's candi-
date for president OF the United States. It was
in this speech that Col Ingersou made use OF
the famous expression ''plumed knight, f" in ref
erence to the chivalric nature Of Blaine's ex-
position Of republican principles on the floor OF
congress This expression became the rallying
cry Of the republican campaign and stuck 70
Blaine all his life It was this presidential
nominating speech that directed national atten-
ton to the new orator. From that time he was
in great demand as political speaker and he
did energetic service for the republican party
campaign
