GEN. BULLER
is CENSURED
BY ROBERTS.
The Disaster at spion KOp Attributa-
BILE to Him and the Assump-
ton of a Subordinate.
DEALSSEVERELY WITH WARREN
The Troops Should Not Have Retir-
ed-Atlxins Behaved Admirably
Throughout the Battle.

LONDON, April 1.-THE war office
tonight publishes In the Gazette a
dispatch from Lord Roberts. dated Feb
ruary 1s, submitting eneral Buffers dis
patches describing the spion Kop and
other operations from January II to
January "a. Lord Roberts deals Sc
yereIy with General Warren and some
Others. Even General Butler does not es-
cape, Lord Roberts complaining that
the plan of operations Is not clearly de-
scribed in the dispatches. After sketch
ing General Buffers intentions as :om-
municated to Sir Charles Warren, who
commanded the whole force, Lord
Roberts points out that General
Warren seems to have concluded, after
a consultation with his officers. that the
flanklng movement ordered by General
Butler was Impracticable. and there
fore, 80 changed the plan of advance as
to necessltate the capture and retention
OF SpIon Kop.
Should Have Notified Butler.
Lord Roberts continues:
"As Warren considered It impossible
to make the wide fanking movement
which was recommended. IL not actu-
ally prescribed in the secret instruc-
tions, he should, forthwith, have ac-
ouainted Butler with the course he
proposed to adopt. There is nothing to
show whether he did so or not. But It
Is only fair to Warren to point out that
Butler appears throughout to have
been aware OF what was happening"
Regarding the withdrawal from
spIon Kop the retention OF which had
become essential to the relief Of Lady
smith, Lord Roberts says:
"I regret to be unable to concur with
Butler in thinking Thornycroft exercis-
ed wise discretion in ordering the
troops to retire. am of the opinion
that Thornycrofrs assumption of re-
sponslbilIty and authority was wholly
inexcusable
Behaved In Gallant Manner.
"on the other hand It is only right to
state that Thornycroft appears to have
behaved in a very gallant manner
throughout the day. ''''''''' 1t
is to be regretted that Warren did not
himself visit the splon Kop In the af-
ternoon or evening. knowing as he did
that the state of affairs was very crit
lcaI and that the loss of the position
would involve the fnllure of the opera
tlons. The attempt to relieve Lady
smith was well devised and I agree
with Butler in thinking 1t ought to have
succeeded. That 1t failed may in some
measure have been due to the difficult
ties OF the ground and the command
ing positions held by the enemy and
probably also to errors of judgment
and want of administrative capacity on
the part Of Warren. But whatever
faults Warren may have committed,
the failure must also be attributed to
the dislncllnatlon of the officer in SUI
preme command to assert his authority
and see that what he thought best was
done and also TO the unwarrantable
and needless assumption of RESPONSE
bnity by subordinate officer"
The dispatch concludes:
"The gratifying feature Of these dis
patches is the admirable behavior OF
the troops throughout the operation"

Wednesday, June 6, by j. II. Clark OIL
Ironton, and DIR. j. P. Clark of Perry
vile, to conduct the funeral service OF
their dear mother, who died in Perry.
vile, at the home of her son, DR.. Clark,
on June 5. 1900.
Mrs. Evaline Clark, whose maiden
name was Petit, was born in Perry
county, Mo-, January s, 1910, and lived
to the ripe age of 80 years and nearly
6 months. She was married to Francis
Clark, April 26, 1929. or this union
there were born 9 children, of whom
survive her-the two sons above men
toned, and Francis and Lawrence
Clark, who now reside In Texas.
The funeral service was held in the
Christian church at Libertyville, Mo,
where the departed had obeyed the Cos
pei 46 years ago.
She was for many years a resident
of the Libertyville community, and a
large concourse of old time acquaint-
ances aud friends followed the clay
tenement in which her faithful soul had
tabernacled for nearly century, to a
resting place beside him who had gone
on before.
Francis Clark, her lifetime compan-
ion, who preceded her to the realms of
the blest, possessed many sterling quail
tiles, and was a devoted Christian. He
was the first white person born in what
is now called Southeast Missouri.
We are told that Sister Clark entered
with a sweet spirit of resignation from
the activities of busy life into the
quietude of old age, and welcomed
the messenger who opened to her the
entrance into larger life.
"What a fellowship, what a joy divine,
Leaning on the Everlasting Arms!
Oh, how sweet to walk in this pilgrim way,

JOSIAH Aliens Wife Goes a-vlsltin'

''Josiah Aliens Wife" has sharpened
up her pen again, and with her patient,
amiable, unobtrusive husband "goes

anticipate that in laying bare the
shortcomings and mistakes of those
she visits she will have abundant OPP

the course of her '.visitiu'" she finds
many things to set right, and there is
definite purpose underlying all her
sketches. Josiah and Go a-Visitin'

THE Sentinel of Liberty says "a relig-

touching secular affairs" This may
be, but supposipg Congress calls it a
question of "morals"-what then?

mute religious belief into a question of
morality, and then proceed to knock
the daylights out of it. A certain doc

WHAT contrast, says the Post DIS
patch, is this declaration of the Ger
man Turner's, who have just been in
session in Philadelphia, to the un-
american utterances of the National
Republican Convention, in session in
the same city:
We recognize the right of all people
to defend with arms of warfare their
liberty and independence. We con-
slider every attempt through the meth
DDS OF war at territorial expansion as
opposed to civilization and as an act of
brutal force. We condemn every effort
to extend the blessings of civilization
with sword and gun as one based upon
Hypocrisy and greed for gain. We
protest against the policy of couques,
OF this government, and against every
attempt toward expanding the domain
of the United States by force.

HERE is one of the rules adopted by
Mr.. Robb's committee for the govern
ment of the primary election in this
congressional district:
For the purpose of providing for the
new Congressional committee. the COM
mitteeman of each county may nom-
mate one person to be voted for in his
county for committeeman from his
county, and each candidate may, if he
desires. nominate one person to be
voted for for committeeman, in each
county in the district. the person re-
ceiving the largest number of votes in
any county to be the Committeeman for
such county and to serve from and after
the time that all business connected
with the denomination for candidate
for Congress for this year shall have
been attended to and disposed OF. in
Guiding the certificate of nomination.
The names of persons named for COM
mitteeman as herein provided shall be
printed on the ballot for the respective
counties, on which the names of the
candidate for Congress appear; provid-
ed, that the votes, if any, for any other
persons not so named, shall not be
counted.
What that rule means admits of no
dispute. 1t means that the candidates
for Congress and the Committeeman of
each county shall name the new Con-
gressional Committee. With that rule
adhered to all the people of a county
might want to vote FOR some certain
man for Committeeman and they would
not have an opportunity of doing so
unless they could prevail on one of the
congressional candidates or the county
committeeman to place his name on
the ticket. The rule is most unfair,
unjust and un-Democratic. and we are
not ready to believe that the Demo-
Gratis of the Thirteenth Congressional
District will endorse any attempt at
such s'high-handed" proceedings.
