FOUGHT HIS WAY TO
LIEUTENANTCY.
His Commission in Face of Many
Difficulties.

J. r. Horton of Greenvi1Ie SecuReG
His Commission in Face of Many
Difficulties.
Washington, Aug. 3.-Jeter r. Hor-
ton. formerly city editor of the Green
Vile News, and we'll known in South
Carolina journalism, has just been
commissioned a second lieutenant in
the U. S. Marine Corps.
There is an interesting story assoc
ciated with the appointment of Lieut..
Horton, showing what may be accom-
pished by persistency, well directed.
Many young men would have funk
ed in the face of so many unusual
set backs, but Mr.. Horton was made
of the right kind of military stuff, and
to-day he is receiving the congratu-
lations of his many friends upon the
signing rof his commission by the
President.
Lieut.. Horton was ordered before
an examining board last March. He
passed the physical examination, but
failed in mathematics. Through the
influence of Representatives Wyatt
Aiken and Johnson, reinforced by
Senator Tillman, Mr.. Horton was re-
QcSlSL lOI June To-
That time he passed the mental ex-
animation, receiving the highest rating
in a class of eighteen, but failed ply
sically.
At the instance of Senator Tillman
and Representatives Aiken and John
son the Secretary OF the navy order
ed another examination July %. For
the second time the surgeons made
an unfavOrable report. The case was
referred to Acting Secretary of the
Navy Darling, who granted hearing
to Representatives Aiken and john
son, who came to Washington last
week for the express purpose of Sc
curing fair treatment for Mr.. Hor-
ton. Senator Tillman happened to
be passing through Washington on
his way North Joined Messrs. Aiken
and Johnson in presenting the case
to Mr.. Darling.
The result was the Acting Secretary
decided that in view of the high mem
tai examination passed by Mr.. Hor-
ton, in addition to the further fact
that he had passed the physical ex-
animation in the spring, to waive the
alleged physical defect. Accordingly
the commission was prepared and
signed, Aug. l.

The weather over the South was fav-

was a renewal OF rumors that leading

this interest. But at the decline men

AMERICAN WORKINGMAN.

John Mitchell, the American
labor leader, in a recent address
at the International Congress Oh
Mine Workers in Paris presented
some facts as to the condition OF
American workingmen beng
much better than that OF Eur
onean toilers that deserve careful
consideration by Americans, and
should promote their devotion 10
American institutions and poll
cies. "In Europe" said MIR.
Mitchell to the Paris congress,
"the life of the worker is held too
cheap, while in the United States
the workingman from every
point Of view lives under better
conditions. In the leading coun-
tries of the old world-notably IN
France and Germany-the work
ingman's burden is made more
crushing by militarism. With few
exceptions every able-bodied man
is compelled to serve a certain
time in the army, taking away
the best years Of his working
life.
Every citizen of this country is
free to devote his entire time and
all his energies to improving his
condition. That is the American
way, and no class of our people
have The same interest in main
tanning it as the workingman.
1t is the opposite of imperial
ism and jingoism, of which we
have had recent illustrations in
the enormous expenditures OF the
Federal Government under Pres
ident Roosevelt. 1t is the inter-
est of every American working
man to check this tendency. 1t
grows with what it feeds upon.
The freedom of American work
ingmen from these so-called
world-power ambitions and exac-
tions is the great secret of the
workingman's prosperity. 1t will
be an evil day for him if mill
tarism and imperialism become
the policy of this Government. 1t
is a danger to be guarded
against, especially by the working
classes. First, it goes for the
pocketbook of the worker by eX-
cessive and needless taxes. The
next step is when it commands
his services in the battles of
greedy and ambitious powers.
This is what is coming home to-
day to the millions of working
people in Russia and Japan.
