Tawney Will Also Oppose the
Plan to Properly De-
fend the Country.
IT'S REALLY STUPENDOUS
TAWNEY BELIEVES THAT AMERi-
CAN PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY OP-
POSED TO PAYING THIS INSLR-
ANCE POLICY.

Washington, March 1.-The demand
that the United States shall go on
building two battleships year is to
be sharply resisted in congress. Both
Senator Hale, chairman of the senate
committee on appropriations, and Rep
resentative Tawney, chairman of the
house committee, have come out flat
footed against putting SO much money
in battleships. In explanation of his
attitude Chairman Tawney, of the
house committee, said:
During the last eight years the in
crease in naval appropriations amount
ed in the aggregate to 6OO,OO0,OOO
in excess of our naval appropriations
for the eight preceding years. The
increases in our appropriations for the
army during the same eight years
were s472, 100000 in excess of army
appropriations for the eight years pre-
ceding. In other words, the aggre-
gate increase in naval appropriations
during the last eight years is alone
more than the total appropriation for
all conceivable government purposes
in any one year during the history OF
the government prior to 1898.
No Prospect Of War.
I'VE are at peace with all the world.
There is not even a prospect Of our
becoming involved in war with anoth-
er nation. 1t seems almost incred-
ible that any one would suggest the
adoption of a naval program which
will involve the expenditure of more
money than we have under existing
virtually put out of commission at
least half of our war vessels by max
ing them inferior in size and eff
cheney by comparison with these giant
battleships now proposed.
1.-The number of years of the life of
these vessels will not be as great as
the number of millions it will cost to
build them. They will depreciate at
least $1,00O,00O year, and it will cost
to operate these monster battleships
in time of Teace.
Our Isolation a Defense.
I'm view of our geographical isola.
Tense is worth more to US than the
largest navy any nation in the world
possesses, and also that in the fiscal
year ended June So 1909, we expend-
ed II percent of our government rev.
enues on account of wars we have had
and wars we are preparing for, it is
rather amazing to find a naval pro
gram proposed for this year and next
that will so greatly increase our ap
preparation under this head
IF the American people could be
made to realize the extent of the in
crease for the army and navy during
the last eight years, and would under
stand the geographical value of oul
isolation, am confident there would
be an uprising against this policy OF

His inspectors came to each one OF

Reynolds is held in the Marion jail
awaiting the arrival of an officer to
take him to Fort BENJAMIN Harrison,
near Indianapolis, at which post his
regiment, the Tenth infantry, is locat-

August, though he has lived under an

He was in far away Alaska in May,
1908, when he secured a ten day hunt
ing pass. While on the hunting ex-
petition he became lost and was I'M
able to find the single trail back to
the post in time to make it possible
for him to return within the required
ten days. When he did return he
found that his regiment had left Alas
ka and was en- route to Indiana. AL
though he was in fact absent without
leave, he feared that he would be
treated as a deserter should he sur
render to some post and being unable
to reach his own regiment he decided
to avoid arrest. In getting out of the
Alaskan country he floated down the
Tanana and Yukon rivers for dis
lance of more than 1920 miles and
then walked from koltag to ST. Mich

he went to Montana and worked in
