WALLACE RESIGNtS,
Chief engineer OfPaMma Ca
nal Construction
rendered his Resignation at Very
Unexpected Time --SeCreta-
ry CeuSures Him.

Especial 10 TIM RrrrBiicANl
Washington ID. {. July At ispro-
bable' that flew people have followed
the details leading up to the resigna-
ton of John F. Wallace Chief Engi-
neer of the Panama Canal and a
member of the Canal Commits
sion, sufficiently closely to appreciate
the full measure of his lack of 10y
atty in throwing up his office TO
accept a position which offered great
er remuneration. but no one can read
the terrible Arrangement Of the for
mer Chief Engineer which Secretary
Taft delivered TO him. in person,
without gathering some idea of the
size, mentally rather than physically
of the Secretary Of War, of the high
ideals which inspire his every action,
of his high conception of loyalty to
his government and the business and
manliness which pervades the man.
Briefly, the circumstances were
these. Wallace, at his own solicita-
ton, was made a member of the
commission His every suggestion
was received with respect and in
practically every instance. was CARR
ed into effect. As recently as May
26. Wallace wrote to the chairman
of the commission that he was en-
tirely satisfied. delighted. in fact
with everything that had been done
and would throw himself into the
work with his whole heart and soul.
The Chairman had urged him to so
organize his engineering force as to
provide for such an emergency as his
illness. mis- being suddenly called
away from the isthmus etc. promised
TO do this. Then. twelve days after
his letter of May 26, he accepted a
proposition from New a York concern
and according to his own statement.
his only stipulation, when asked if he
would accept the new place had been.
IT is simply matter of terms and
conditions. "
When Secretary Taft had heard
what Mr.. Wallace had done, heard
it from his own lips, he proceeded to
express his opinion of the Chief En-
gineer's conduct in unvarnished
terms. He never lost his temper, as
the conservative character of his re-
marks demonstrates, but he did not
spare his auditor There is nothing
so repugnant to the Secretary of War
as disloyalty and in his Judgment
Mr.. Wallace had been guilty of the
gravest sort of disloyalty and Of
dishonorable selfishness which was
contemplate, and the secretary pro-
ceeded to tell him so.
So
The Engineer, John +. Stevens,
appointed as successor of Wallace, is
regarded as a man of exceptional
ability. He constructed the Rocky
Mountain division of the Great
Northern Railroad, which is regard
ed as one of the best built roads in
the country, perhaps in the world. |
Stevens spent between $50, 900, 900 |
and $40, 000,0 900 for j. j. Hill and |
Mr.. Hill was so well satisfied that he |
recommended Stevens to me in the
highest terms; said Mr.. Shonts
chairman of the commission, to your
correspondent to-day, and he added.
Gould anything be a better test of
aman's ability? Those who know

A RICHMOND LETTER,
EDITOR CITIZEN:

EDITOR CITIZEN:
1t seems pretty well assured now
that Claude A. Swanson will be the
nominee of the Democratic party
and the next governor of Virginia.
This opinion is based on the best in
formation gathered from reliable
sources as to the predominant feeling
in every section of the State, and
every county in every section. Com
mercial travellers who go to every
precinct representing the many and
various manufacturers and iobbers,
report Swanson will sweep the State.
Newspaper men and correspondents
generally concede Swanson is the
choice of the people. In this city
his strength is growing rapidly and
In the last two weeks many men who
heretofore have been favorable to one
or the other of the other candidates
have aligned themselves with the
Swanson forces.
A careful observer of political
events sums it up this way: Swan
son will be nominated by large
plurality. He has great strength
with the people. He is a "man of
the people," He has won his honors
in hard fights, and is worthy of high
est honors our people have to confer.
Born Virginian. son of a Confeder-
ate soldier, at an early age he read
and studied of the great men who
had done noble deeds and valiant
work for the State, and resolved to
follow the example of these noble
sons. and try to fit himself to do
some good for his State and fill with
credit the highest position with
which his fellow citizens would hon.
or him.
The "plow-boy of Pittsylvania"
has plowed his way deep into the
hearts of the people. He has brains
and ability; u man of great force and
STRENGTH OF character, cool, calm
judgment, absolutely just and fear
less, and of untiring energy. His
record in Congress for the past
twelve years stamps him a man of
great ability, and his speeches show
him to be a great student of events,
a man of affairs, and born leader. He
will make progressive Governor,
give us splendid business admins
tration, and live and act up to the
promises he makes,
He is the logical candidate. He
can unite all factions and all inter-
ests. He can carry the State by a
larger majority than any other man
we can nominate. He is born ora
tor, and as debator he has few
equals. he can meet and rout the
Republicans on the hustings as no
other candidate for the position can
do. The people realize these facts,
and intend to make the Hon. Claude
A. Swanson the next governor of
virginia. CORRESPONDENT.

Fitz Lee.s brother for Martin.

An interesting fact and one bear
ing on the fight for the United States
senatorship which has not been gen.
orally known is, according to the
Washington Star, that Captain Dan.
M. Lee, of Stafford county, the brother
of General Fitzhugh Lee, is warm
supporter of Senator Thomas s.
Martin in his contest for reelection.
This fact was recently published in
the Star and has never been denied.
In fact, those familiar with the po-
litical situation verify the statement.
The attitude of Captain Lee is of
especial interest In view Of the
fact that Senator Martin defeated
General Fitzhugh Lee for the senate
in 1898. and the further fact that
Gov. Montague in his speeches is
making palpable appeal to the
friends of Gen. Lee to retaliate now W
and defeat Senator Martin.-Staun.

Of all of its candidates, including

RATHER Low POLITICS.

Notauutou Dlspatcn.l
The anonymous circular dodge has
recently met with a dismal failure in
Danyille, where all effort was made
to prejudice the voters against Sena-
tor Martin and Congressman Swan
son.
Senator Martin was billed to
speak in Danville and when he ar
alved the town was flooded with a
circular reciting that the Business
Mems association had passed reso-
lutions on amendments to the inter-
state commerce commission law, and
forwarded to the Senators and Con-
gressmen, and in bold type the hand
bill asked: "Wby did it take these
gentlemen two years to frame an
answer"
One of these was poked at Senator
Martin during his speech and he re-
piled as follows:

ABSENTEEISM.
(From Winchester starr.

Senator Martin refuses to criticize
the record Of Governor Montague
aud contents himself with defending
his own record where it has been at
tackled by Montague. In this Sena-
tor Martin displays good taste and
good sense. We congratulate him
upon his self control. He is display
ing the same magnanimity he did at
the last Richmond convention, when
the convention was opposed to send
ing Montague as a delegate to the
National Democratic Convention,
but Martin insisted that his rival
must not be humiliated, and urged
his friends to vote for him.
The Star, however, will not hesi-
tate to hold up the Governor to the
rack of just criticism. We print
elsewhere q sample of the Governors
repeated and habitual absences from
the city of Richmond where his
office is, and where his duties REQUIRE
HIM to remain for at least the great
er part of the time.
The Constitution and laws certainly
contemplate that the Governor has
duties to perform in Richmond. Sec
ton ~ of the Constitution provides
that the Governor shall reside at the
seat of government. Section so
provides that the secretary of the
Commonwealth shall keep a daily
record of the official acts of the Gov.
ernor, which shall be signed by the
Governor and attested by the secre-
tary, and, when required, shall Law
the same before either house of the
General Assembly.
In the year 1904 Montague was
out of the city of Rick1sond upwards
of 166 days. In 1905 the percentage
of absences is much greater. We
would like to see the Governors
daily record as kept by the secretary
of the Commonwealth.
Montague, be it remembered, is the
man who criticizes Martin for going
to the departments in the interest of
his constituents.
This absentee Governor ia about
as near an approach to a demagosue
as We wish to see.

We reprint this morning an inter.
esting record of Gov. Montague's ab.
senteeism from the seat of govern
ment compiled by the Winchester
Star, from the Richmond Times
Dispatch. That is only brief part
of the whole record during Mr.. Mon
tague's official term. The Governor
says that he has neglected no duty
during such absenteeism. If that
be true, the conclusion is irresistible
that the Goyernorship of Virginia ia
a mere sinecure when the Legislature
is not in session, and that it is scan
dalous and outrageous to pay Gov
ernor SIS, 900 year for his services,
with the use of a mansion and other

are kept on almost starvation salaries.
