MS victories were important
Battle Of Rich Mountain.

On July 10 Mcclellan came in sight
Of the enemy. To understand the po-
sitiOn Of the two armies reference
should be made TO the accompanying
map. Garnett with the main body of
the COnfederates was at Laurel. Colo
mel Pegram with about 1900 south
ern troops was guarding the pass in
Rich mountain. and Mcclellan with
his eutire force was at Roaring run,
west Of this gap.
Pegram believed his position could
not be turned. for the reason that he
was in de6Ie with precipitous hills
guarding each flank. Before proceed
ing il was necessary for the Union
commander To dislOdge him, as Pc
gram held the key TO lie enemy's Do
siton. This task was delegated to
Colonel ". :. Rosecrans.
About o'clock on the morning OF
July II RoSecrans, with four regi-
ments and troop of cavalry, began
a march up Rich mountain The way
WAS most difficult, as it lay through &

By 3 O'Clock IN the afternoon Rose
Grams forces had marched about eight
miles and were on the Top OF Rich
mountain, one mile from Pegram's
camp. Suddenly without warning
they were fired on by n masked bat
terry. The Union commander supposed
his expedition had been kept secret
from the enemy. but It appears that
g messenger sent after him by Nc
CIeIIan had fallen into the hands
Of Pegram, and the movement was
thus revealed. Pegram hastily sent
our q battery and about go men 10
intercept Rosecrans. and IL was this
force that had made the attack.
RoSecrans had no guns to answer
the fire, but Immediately formed his
regiments in line OF battle, sending
out Il skirmish line IN advance and
cautioning the main body of his troops
to lie low in the grass, where the Con
federate fire went over their heads.
There was fierce lighting between the
advance guard and the foe. and in the
midst Of il the Southerners charged
out of their hastily constructed works.
This was Rosecrans' opportunity. The
main body OF the Uaioa troops now
charged bayonets. and after q hot
fight the Confederate lire broke. the

After all IS said that honestly can
be said to discredit Mcclellan it still
must be admitted that his conduct Of
Affairs in western Virginia was admi-
rable. Perhaps his dispatches were a
trine boastful. but he was not the only
young general guilty of that fault
With his after career this spprecia ttoa
has nothing TO do. It relates alone 10
his performances IL western Virginia.
That the above estimate was tie uni
versai one made at the time, from the
president down, Is evidenced by the
fact that this single campaign soon
after made Mcclellan commander of
the Army of the Potomac and within
a few months general in chief OF all
the Union armies.
Two things that helped General &c
Cleilan in western Virginia were the
strong Union sentiment o: the native
population and the numerical superb
ority of his army over that Of the
Confederate At the time it was
hoped that his success would end fight
ing in that end Of the state. This
proved deIUsive, but nevertheless the

the Union armies roughly in
the following positions: Gen
eral Banks was holding down
the lid in Baltimore, which was yet
under martial law; General Butler was
at Fortress Monroe still-very still, as
q certain famous Democrat said OF
himself some decades later; General
Mcdowell was just getting ready to
move against Beauregard at Manassas
The date for this advance was set
originally for July 8, but was delayed
awaiting additional troops and sup
plies from Washington. General Pat
terson was at bIartinsburg. trying to
make up his mind whether or not TO
attack Johnston. 1t may be remarked
In passing that he never did make up

MERIT ALONE
IN APPOINTMENTS
PRESIDENT is NAMING POSTMAS-
TIERS REGARDLESS OF PULL
POLITICAL REASONS NO ISSUE.

Washington, Feb. S.-Republican
congressman who have long been able
to go to the postoffice department
and demand the appointment OF a new
man in place of some postmaster
whose term is about to expire are
finding that an interesting state of af-
fairs exists. They find that President
Taft has Postmaster General Hitch
cock insist on pursuing policy OF
keeping all such postmasters in Of
fee as have good records, and let
the congressman, who heretofore
have been able to oust postmasters
for political reasons alone, name new
postmasters only in cases wnere the
existing postmaster has proved unsat-
isfactory in the administration of his
office.
They complain that this is practi-
cally civil service in presidential post
offices, which heretofore have been
matters almost purely of political IA
voritism, and they prophesy that it
will be not more than few months
when the president will probably
startle the politicians with the pro-
mitigation of an executive order plac'
ing all postmasters under civil serv-
ice. Such an order has already been
issued regarding fourth-class postmas-
ters.
This matter was made the subject
of complaint today by Representative
Morgan and Mcclure of Oklahoma,
who attempted to replace the present
postmaster at Geary, Okla, by Earl
Dillon, who has all the needful certi-
fication of the Oklahoma republican
machine. Mr.. Hitchcock informed
the congressman that the present
postmaster has good record. and
that in view of the effort to carry
out the merit system in presidential
postoffices, he would not recommend
a new man. He refused to submit Mr..
Dillon's name to the president be-
cause the president. he said, had in
structed him not to recommend a
new man for a postoffice where the
incumbent has a satisfactory record in
the conduct of his office.
On making inquiry among other
congressman the Oklahoma republi-
can found that the merit rule is being
pretty generally and rather persist
emily enforced.

DEMOCRATS STAND
BY CRUMPACKER
AN ATTEMPT TO GERRYMANDER
MISSOURI AND ILLINOIS CAUS-
ED CHANGE.

Washington, Feb S.-Asserting that
they scent a plot to elect solid repub-
lcan delegations from Illinois and
Missouri to the sixty-third congress,
democrats in congress have swung
from their special plan to keep the
house at its present number, 391,
over the Crumpacker bill, fixing the
membership at 433.
Missouri, as we'll as Illinois would
lose member if the house were left
at its present numerical strength. It
is asserted by democrats that the re-
publican plans as it relates to Hi
nois is to have the Illinois legislature,
which is controlled by the republicans
fail to district the state under the
new apportionment bill In the event
of such failure, the entire congress
sional delegation to the sixty-third
congress to be chosen IN 1912 would
be elected at large. AS the republi-
cans are confident that they have a
majority of the voters of the state
they believe that the congressional
delegation at large would be solidly
republican The democrats have con-
troll of the Missouri legislature, but
not by the two-thirds vote necessary
to over ride a veto of the governor.
Under the plan for keeping the
house at its present numerical
strength, Missouri will have fourteen
instead of sixteen representatives.
Democrats believe re-districting
plan worked out by democratic leg
islature would be vetoed by Cover
nor Hadley. Then there would have
to be an election of all representa-.
tives at large. Missouri as a state
now is republican and the delegation
would consequently be solidly republi-
can.

OOOGEO BULLETS
ALL DAY LONG
PRISONER PLAYS WITH OFFICERS
AND MAKES HIS FOURTH ES-
CAPE A SUCCESS.

Holdenville, Okla, Feb. S.-Walter
Davis, young man wanted for viola
tion of the liquor law, was arrested
here Monday afternoon by Sheriff Cal
Edmonds and Deputy Sheriff Dale
When the officers commenced to un.
lock the Jail door the prisoner ran.
Four shots were fired at him without
effect.
After hiding in an outbuilding until
the pursuers had dispersed, he secur.
ed his team at a local livery stable
and went to a farm house where he
was stopping, five miles west Of here
Two deputy sheriffs, in pursuit, recap
tured him.
He was brought to the Jail door and
as it was being opened broke for lib
erty and escaped. Two shots were
aimed at him by the deputies. He
returned to the farm house again and
was preparing to go to bed, thinking
the officers would not again look for
him there, when deputy sheriffs from
Wewoka, who had been notified by
telephone, captured him again and
securely handcuffed him.
Upon a pretext Of putting on his
coat the handouts were removed from
one of his hands and he again broke
from his captors and escaped five
shots from the officers guns. The
officers at Wewoka were on the look
out for the fugitive and at an early
hour this morning he was seen to en-
ter that town.
The officers drew their guns and
compelled him to approach. The Off
GERS put their guns in their scab-
bards and proceeded to Jail with the
thrice-escsped prisoner. AS they
neared Jail door again made his es
cape by his fleetness of foot before
the officers could draw their guns.

DISASTROUS FIRE AT PoRUM.
Business Portion of Town Destroyed.
Loss $4,000.

Muskogee. Okla, Feb. S.-Flre at an
early hour this morning did 100000
worth of damages at Porum, a small
town. in this county. The fire orig
mated in the second story of the Re-
veil building, owned by Muskogee peo-
pie, and this building, the largest in
Porum, together with other structures
il the business district Of the town,
were destroyed before flames died
out. Lack of water and fire-fghting
equipment were largely responsible
for the heavy loss. There were eight
storerooms in the Revell building, all
of them occupied. The merchants
saved little of their stocks of goods.
The upper floor of the building was
occupied as offices and the Masonic
hall. The fire started in the latter
place. The building was practically
covered by insurance, but the mer-
chants are heavy losers.

ARIZONA VOTING
ON CONSTITUTION
CAMPAIGN MARKED WITH BIT
TERNESS-DOCUM is BRIEF
-RADICAL FEATURES.

Phoenix, AriZ., Feb. 9.-Reports of
a heavy vote on the acceptance or
rejection of the constitution for the
new state are coming in today from
all over Arizona. A campaign re.
markable for the bitterness with
which the constitution has been de-
Tended and denounced preceded 90
days election and aroused in the
voters an interest and enthusiasm
unprecedented in the history of Ari.
zona politics. Despite the fears enter
tanned in some quarters that Presi-
dent Taft will refuse to approve The
document, the indications early today
are that the constitution will receive
the sanction of a majority Of the
voters.
The charter of the new state bears
the signatures of only forty-one
members out of the fifty-two dele
gates comprising the constit lticnal
convention. Ten republicans and one
democrat refused to sign the docu.
ment. The disaffected element hume.
diately commenced a bitter warfare,
which the delegates favorable to the
adoption of the constitution respond
ed to in kind.
The constitution is a much briefer
instrument that that adopted by eth
er Oklahoma or New Mexico. 1t
includes the initiative, the referen-
dun and the recall. These ard
other radical features, including rhe
employers liability provision. the
abrogation of the fellow servant
doctrine, and direct primaries, have
been principally attacked by the ap-
position.
