From this distance it looks to
us like the people of Darke
County, without regard to party,
would honor themselves in send
ing Hon. Martin b, Trainor, ed
itor of the Greenville Democrat,
as their delegate to Ohio consti-
tutional convention. 1t is not
because he is the editorof aDem-
ocratic paper that we think he
would fit the place, for there is a
host of them who could not get
our vote for dog pelter. Martin
b. Trainor stands for the best
there is i'm government-civilly,
politically and morally, He
would honor Darke County-he
would honor the State. We do
not know whether he would care
to be burdened with the work a
conscientious man would have to
fight for i'm that convention. If
we were q citizen of Darke Coun-
ty, however, we would be for
him first, last and all the time.
We would not have anyone think
he was the only man in that
county who would reflect honor
upon them, but who would more
conscientiously do it?

The long list of judges whose
actions show the urgent need OF
the recall is not complete with
out the name Of Federal Judge
Archibald. of Scranton, Pa.
On July 20, two men appeared
before him for sentence charged
with similar offenses. One, a
poor man, had made use of the
only means of defense he
possessed against the United
States government of Tobbing
importers Of merchandise. In
other words he was a smuggler,
altho only on a small scale. He
was given three months in pri-
son.
His fellow offender was a
smuggler on q large scale. His
operations were shown to run
into millions. He was given no
jail sentence but released on
payment Of S25, 900 fine.
Judge Archibald does not de-
serve condemnation for the
leniency shown the rich man,
but for his barbarous severity
to the poor one. His action in
the two cases indicate that he
believes that only the rich have
the right to resist robbery by
the government.
President Taft has placed
this same Judge Archibald on
the new Court Of Commerce
which is to pass upon all
appeals by the railroad corpora
tions from the decisions of the
Inter State Commerce Commiss-
ion. The railroads have no
cause to worry about the
appointment.

THE PRESIDENTS CHEAP
EXCUSE FOR VETO
ING WOOL BILL

BY veoting the wool tariff bill
President Taft has thrown
away the chance for certain
relief from excessive duties
without holding out any real
hope for anything better; with
out the guarantee that even the
degree of relief promised in the
vetoed measure can be again
obtained.
That a more satisfactory bill
can be obtained next winter
there is no good reason to eX-
pect.
I The president has vetoed the
wool bill because he says, it
was not drawn by u tariff
commission.
But his Canadian reciprocity
bill Ga tariff bilD was not drawn
by tariff commission. He
signed that.
And the odorous Taft-Aldrich-
Cannon bill was not drawn by a
tariff commission. He signed
that.
He will also veto the farmers
free list Ga tariff bilD because it
was not drawn by q tariff com
mission.
But he said the Taft.Aldrich-
Cannon tariff law was the best
tariff law this country ever saw.
The country doesn't think so.
He said that schedule K (the
wool tariff in the Taft-Aldrich-
Cannon law was 'indefensible. 4"
But he defends it with veto
against the changes now pro
posed.
1t is conceded that the Taft
Aldrich-Cannon tariff gives the
trusts all the best of it and robs
the consumers.
The wool bill, the farmers
free list, the steel bill, the su-
gar bill, the cotton bill, all will
be vetoed because they were not
drawn by a tariff commission.
Yet the schedules they are in
tending to revise were not
drawn by a tariff commission
and were signed by the presi-
dent.
LAST simmer he pava the
trusts the benefit of the doubt.
This summer he gives the
trusts the benefit Of the doubt.
With each tick of the clock
the trusts, through the present
tariff law, are robbing the peo-
pie of the country.
The trusts have had the bene-
fit of the 'unscientific revision"
for a year but the people cannot !
get it.

~ n Aug. 20. 1861, was issued the
order creating the Army of the
Potomac and giving General
George b. Mcclellan command
Of all the Union forces along the river
md as far TO the rear as Baltimore
and Fort Delaware. This was a new
departure in American military organ
ization. Heretofore there had been
geographical departments with ma
jor general over each. but no attempt
TO create armies on the European
model. The new plan Of organization
into corps and divisions was brought
forward by Mcclellan and was op-
posed by General Scott, who contend
ed that the old methods Of brigades
and geographical departments were
good enough. Finally Mcclellan had
his way, and eventually his method
was adopted by all the armies of the
north He also had new plan Of
staff organization which was adopted
1t is not without interest that he ap
pointed as his chief of staff his father
in-law, Colonel II. b. Marcy.
While organizing his troops McClel
Ian had also been fortifying. Washing
ton. The man at the head Of the en-
gineers was Major ]. G. Barnard, after.
ward brigadier general. This depart
ment was reorganiZed, and Barnard
was given charge of completing the
defenses Of the capital.
One of the earliest orders issued by
the new commander of the Army Of
the Potomac was that no more gray
uniforms should be purchased for
northern soldiers. Hardly a fight had
occurred up TO this time but that the
similarity in the uniforms worn in the
two armies had created confusion.
Many times Union troops had fired at
each other. At Wilson's Creek the
mistaking of Confederate troops for
Federals had caused the defeat Of
Sigers column and possibly changed
the outcome of the whole fight.
Danger From Beauregard Past.
On Aug. 20 Mcclellan wrote TO
his wife: II Beauregard does not at
tack this week he is foolish He has
given me infinite advantages, ana you
may be sure have not neglected the
opportunity Every day adds to the
strength Of my defenses, to the per
fection of the organization and some
little to our forces. l am gaining rap

In his defense of the Control
Ter Bay Grab, Pres't Taft referr'
ed in his message to the fact
that alternate sections of the
bay front have been reserved by
the government and that this
has made monopoly impossible.
1t now turns out that this pre-
caution is nothing more than a
sham. The bay front claims
are so shallow that no trans
portation company can use
them without access to the land
in the rear. If President Taft
knew this his silence on the
subject in his message does not
speak well for his sincerity. If
he did not know it, then one
may we'll question whether his
knowledge of the Alaska situa.
tion is sufficient to give any
value whatever to his recent eX-
planation.
Fortunately, no matter what
the true state of affairs may be
regarding Controller Bay, a
monopoly can be broken
through the use Of the taxing
power. The plotters who are
scheming to get possession of
Alaskan resources are leaving
out of their calculations the
possibility of a tax on land val
ues being levied that will make
it Improbable to hold land with
out using it.

Throughout the terrible weeks fol-
lowing Bull Run Lincoln remained ex-
ternally calm and serene. Despite his
burden of undivided responsibility,
greater than that of Washington"
his faith in the final outcome seemed
never disturbed. 1t was almost as
though in the deep and mystical ma
ture of the man he had comfort and
assurances that others never knew.
Lincoln Visits Virginia Camps.
On Aug. q Lincoln and three mem
bers Of his cabinet, Seward. Chase
and Cameron, accompanied by Cen
eral Mcclellan. visited all the camps
on the Virginia side Of the Potomac
At this time the relations between the
president and General Mcclellan were
cordial, and in his "Own Story" Nc
Clellan wrote, referring to a later
period, my relations with Mr.. Lincoln
were generally very pleasant, and /
seldom had trouble with him when we
could meet face to face" So far as
1 can discover, this is about the only
good word General Mcclellan ever had
to say Of any of his superiors. Scott
Stanton and Halleck he scored un-
mercifully But, outside of Scott, all
this came later, possibly for the reason
that Stanton had not yet become sec
retary Of war and Halleck had not yet
been placed in chief command of the
army.
Second to Mcclellan, perhaps the
most popular major general appointed
by Lincoln up TO this time was John
c. Fremont, the Pathfinder across
the Rockies and the first Republican
candidate for president. Yet com
plants against Fremont had begun al
most as soon as he took command at
st. Louis. One of the most serious
charges against him was that he had
refused to reinforce Lyon and had
therefore been the indirect cause Of
the death of that brave and capable
general. Other criticisms were that
he overreached his authority, that he
was personally inaccessible, that he
was impractical and showed a lack
of military experience and capacity.
On Aug. 30 Fremont's acts raised
much more serious question. That
was the date of his famous proclaim
ton declaring the entire state of Mis-
souri, under martial law. fixing pen
Rlties Of those in rebellion against the
Union, confscating their property and
freeing their slaves. This at once
raised a storm in the border states
and representations were made to Lin
coin chat unless Fremonts action in
freeing the slaves was disavowed it
might lose Kentucky to the Union.
Famous Proclamation Dlsav0wed,
Lincoln wrote kindly letter to
Fremont, pointing out that his procla-
nation was not in harmony with the
act Of congress relating to the slaves
of those in rebellion and asking him
10 modify his pronunciamento to con.
form to the law This Fremont re-
fused to do and invited the president
himself to dlsayow the proclamation
If he did not approve 1t.
