The report made TO the House OF
Representatives by the Secretary of
War, recommending the immediate
abandonment of eighteen army posts
and the gradual elimination vi Others
until the total is cut down from forty
nine to eight, is the outcome of the
work of which Representative Helm,
of Kentucky, has been engaged for
months as chairman of the Committee
OF Expenditures in the War Depart
ment.
The Helm Committee has held
humorous and exhaustive hearings at
which Gen Wood, the chiefs of de-
partments, such as the Quartermas-
tiers and the subsistence department
and scores of other officers in a no
sitlon 10 speak with the authority of
knowledge. have appeared as wit
nesses. The hearings have been con-
Quoted without flourish of trumpets
of the accompaniment of brass band
trimmings. They have had as their
object the increased efficiency of the
army in time of peace more effective
methods of mobilization in time of
war and decreased expenditures
through the Inauguration of.army, as
distinguished from political trading
posts.
In speech recently made BY
Chairman Helm the statement was
made that an annual saving of from
zen 10 thirty millions could be eff
fected by ;he elimination of useless
posts and the maintenance of ONLY
such posts as arc necessary To pro-
vide an adequate system of defense.
That the estimate is conservative is
shown by the fact that, in the Sec
rotary of Wars report, that official
declares that the abandonment of the
eighteen posts named viii decrease
the cost of maintenance of $500
600 a year. If the Helm plan is
adopted in toto and but posts are
left-and that number will be ade-
quate to guard the Atlantic and Pa
cific coasts, TO provide an efficient
system of reinforcement from posts
situated on interior lines and for the
purpose of the better instruction of
the National Guard. a saving of $50
100000 annually is by no means an
extreme figure. The resultant bene-
Tit to the army's efficiency is in
AT a time when there is much talk
about economy and few indications
IF its practice by either party at
Washington. Mr.. Helms plan of re-
fersing the system commends itsele
% most favorable consideration.

JOHN DUNAWAY DISCUSSES SOPHISTRIES OF ANTI-PRO-
 HIBITIONISTS.
Editor Log Cabin Democrat:

Editor Log Cabin Democrat:
 l suppose most of your readers have received copy of Facts" (so- called), issued by the whiskey league and sent broadcast informing the voters in the coming contest on the whlskey question. Those same fel- lows have always been opposed to To- cal option and are really in favor of whiskey being sold at every cross road in the state, but the temperance forces have by their votes narrowed their business to few counties in the state. Now, since it has become a state issue, they have suddenly be- come in favor of local option and are trying to deceive the voters of the state by claiming that local option is good enough and that statewide pro- hibition would be calamity to the people.
 When was a boy used to hunt oppossums, and when the dogs would find one up a small bush I would try to shake it down and after few wig orous shakes it would begin to turn loose one foot at a time, and finally after breaking all his feet loose, he would hold on by his tail, and if didn't bring hard shake quick he'd soon siege the limb with all his feet and l would have to chop the sap bling down to get my game. The temperance forces have been shaking this whiskey bush and trying to ge, this animal to the ground for years His feet have been shaken loose 1T many places, yet he holds on by hi. tail. The only way to get him loos, is to chop the bush down by state wide vote so overwhelmingly larg, that the bush or its occupants vii never sprout again, to corrupt cleo tiOns or debauch coming young mel of the state.
 There are doubtless many young men in the state who will cast theil first vote in the coming election Young man, how are you going to

cast your maiden vote? Will it be to protect yourself, your brothers and sisters against this growing curse that sweeps thousands annually to premature grave, with tattered gar ments, bloated eyes, dead consciences, with every hope fled; or will you line yourself up with those who stand for the highest type of Christianity and purest models of morality?
 Many who advocate saloons are to be pitied rather than blamed, for they are acting according to the light in them. It is selfish light and gives no heed to the damaging influences of the traffic. The Saviour said to those who opposed the light he taught them, "Ye are of your father the devil and the works of your father ye will do." And so it is and will ev- CT be until the seed of the woman triumphs over the serpent's seed. Again the Saviour said: "The chil- dren of this world are those who have no hopes for the future but live in daily qualification of the flesh, while the children of light are those who are supposed to be living after the teaching of the spirit. Now, these children of this world (the children of darkness) are sending out these misleading papers to deceive those who are not posted, and in many in- stances will cause the children of light to cast their vote against moth- CT, home and heaven and in favor of debauched humanity.

BOYS SEEK WRIT
 OF HABEAS CORPUS

After having served about 30 days in the county jail, two of the five boys who were fined in circuit court for disturbing a public gathering are seeking through habeas corpus pro- ceedings to secure their freedom. The case is the one which attracted spe- cial attention on account of the enor- nous amount of costs-about $700- accruing in misdemeanor trial Three of the defendants paid their fines of $20 each and their propor- tionate share of the costs, and the other two, Ed Presley and Fred Don nell, who have been in jail since their conviction, through their attorney Col. c. w. Bruce, now contend that they have served a sufficient time to discharge their fines, and that they cannot be held prisoners for the costs after other defendants tried jointly have been released The application for the writ as made to Judge J. A Lea and on the suggestion of Judge E. M. Merriman, deputy prosecuting attorney, the hearing was continued until Friday, to await the return ot Prosecuting Attorney c. w. Clark.

LYNCH|NC OCCURS
 AT RUSSfLLY|L[f
FIRST IN POPE COUNTY
CON FESS SSED ASSAILANT OF WHITE WOMAN HANGED TO
 TELEPHONE POLE.

Russellville, August 2O.-Monroe Franklin, negro, who yesterday af- ternoon had confessed to assaulting a White woman, was taken from the Pope county jail here last night and hanged to telephone pole a block from the courthouse. Pete Grey, an- other negro whom Franklin had inn plcated in the crime in his comics sion, was in the jail, but was not mo tested by the mob, as its members had some doubt as to his guilt
 The assault was committed Friday night upon widow, with two small children, who lives on the river, five miles south of Russellville. Her home was entered by two negroes She was dragged several hundred yards and assaulted by one of the negroes. She succeeded in fighting off the other. She came to Russellvile and reported the assault to the officers Saturday. Franklin was arrested near the mines Saturday afternoon and lodged in jail. Monday afternoon he was given preliminary hearing before Justice of the Peace M H. Baird. He con- fessed and implicated Grey, who was promptly arrested, but who denied his guilt.
 A mass meeting was to have been held at the courthouse last night to discuss the city's water and light fight. About $40 the crowd as one man moved toward the jail entrance Sheriff Gates and Constable Burns, who were guarding the courthouse corridor that leads to the jail en- trance, were surrounded, overpower- e dand carried off. The jail door was then battered down. Franklin had climbed to the top of the cage in the jail. His face was of a grayish cast as he begged for his life. Grey was ordered to climb to the top of the cage and push Franklin off and he hastened to obey. As the black came tumbling down, he was seized and a rope placed about his neck. Grey was not molested.
 After the lynching of Franklin, the crowd quietly dispersed. The whole affair had happened in 10 minutes. Not a shot had been fired. It was the first lynching in the history of Pope county.
 Franklin recently came here from Oklahoma. Grey lived in the vicinity of the crime.
 The assaulted woman appeared at the examination yesterday afternoon. Although she is badly bruised, her in- juries are not serious.
