NOT FIRST OF THE KIND
Gov. Morton Removed General
McLewee Sixteen Years Ago.

Governor Dix's action against General
Organ is not the first instance I'm which
a high officer Of the national guard has
been summarily removed. Sixteen years
ago Governor Levi +. Morton, on the
last day he occupied Office, removed In
spector General Frederick c. McLewee.
In his annual report TO the adjutant gen
eral General McLewee had criticised the
Governor and his staff. In one part OF
his report he said:
Lack OF uniformity in dress is common
on occasions Of public ceremony. which
has a tendency to make the Governor s
staff the subject OF unfavorable comment
and ridicude.
There was also criticism OF the use OF
armories for other than military purposes
and for changing tine uniforms Of the 22d
and list regiments; and also Of the ad-
jutant general. for failure to appoint
boards Of survey. General +. A. McAlpin
was then adjutant general.
General McLewee's term would have ex-
pired automatically within twenty-four
hours, but Governor Morton. who said he
considered the general had Committed
a gross act OF military insubordlnation"
in making the report public, beheaded
him in the afternoon of the last day Of
December, appointing in his place Cap
tain F. NJ. Hoffman, already selected by
Governor Black as his inspector general.
Governor Morton wrote General Nc
Lewee about a year later that had he
known the facts and conditions that had
since come TO his knowledge he would
not have dismissed the officer, and that
he had recommended 90 Governor Black
to issue a full and honorable discharge TO
General McLewee.

a sufficient number OF fraudulent creden-
tailed DELEGATES added TO those regularly
chosen to support him. 20 secure controi
Of the convention and steam-roll the
nomination. 1t was proceeding WITH
which each was acquainted and which
each had sanctioned In prior conventions.
This explains the extraordinary conduct
Of Roosevelt. He could not enter upon
such an analysis OF the evidence as would
prove TaftS regularly elected Delegates IN
the minority without inevitably subjectinS
his own spuriOusly Credentialled delegates
to an examination so critical as 10 expose
the falslty Of his own contention That he
had an honestly elected majority OF the
delegates. He therefore deliberately chose
10 claim everything. to cry fraud 10 bully
the national committee and the conven-
ton, and sought to create condition
which would make impossible calm In
vestigation OF cases upon merit, and 10
carry the convention by storm. He filed
tho public ear with sound and fury. He
ruthleSsly sacrificed everything 70 the one
idea Of his being the one candidate. He
submitted no suggestion as TO platform
of Progressive principles He clamored
loudly for purging the convention roll OF
tainted" delegates without purgtng his
own candidacy Of his tainted contests
and his tainted trust support. He offered
no reason for a third party except his
own overmastering craving for third
term.
Senator la Toilette declared that "the
charge of theft against the National Com
mittee for seating Taft delegates where
Roosevelt delegates should have been
seated came with bad grace from those
who made it," and he quotes an article
by Mr. Munseys chief political writer in
support OF his statement that the Rooss-
welt contests were made with the DELHI
crate purpose of deceiving the Republic
cans of the country
La Toilette asserts that the ex-Prer.
dent never was a Progressive, and that
trusts grew rapidly under his admins
tration He promises hot stun in the
next article on ROOsevelt's tariff record
and HIS opposition to the Progressive hghS
in wisconsin.

the means cannot accept the suggestion
Of Brigadier General McCoskry Butt too
quickly 10 start a fund TO take the matter
into court, especially as General Butt has
offered to start the fund with 81, 900. II
officers remain inactive while military
laws are being violated with impunity
there is no telling what will become OF
the national guard"
Another well known officer said:
81 believe the action Of the Governor
is all due 10 military politics, and desire
20 put myself on record predicting
that in few days Governor Dix will issue
an order detailing General Verbeck 10
command the national guard. OF course
the Governor has no right to issue such
an order. but so far the Governor has
been above the military law passed by the
Legislature. and any kind OF an order he
will issue 10 suit himself or those who
are using him"
Major General Organ, who is now
supernumerary, Joined the national guard
as a private in the eth Regiment In
March, 1897, and was transferred 10 the
I'd Battery in November 1900. In De
cember Of the latter year he was elected
second lieutenant He was promoted nrst
lieutenant in 1904 and captain in 1907
and was made major OF the I'd Battalion
of Field Artillery in 1911. He was APP
pointed major general by Governor Dix
on the retirement OF Major General
Charles +. Roe last May. General
Organ has been a very close military
student, and is regarded as an eXcep-
tionaIly well posted officer. His efforts
have been TO bring the national guard as
close 10 army methods as possible.
Lieutenant Colonel Walton IS a captain
on the retired list Of the army, and is a
West Point graduate. He has a fine rec
ord Of army service.
Captain Olmsted first Joined the ma
| tional guard as a private in Squadron A
in 1898.
General Organ refused last night to
discuss Governor Dix's sweeping order.

LA TOILETTE ATTACKS T. R
His Cry of Theft at Chicago
Comes with Bad Grace.

Madison. Wis, Oct. 5.-In the current
issue OF MS weekly magazine, Senator La
Toilette emphatically declares, IN his
latest article, why I Continued as a
Candidate" that the Republican nomina-
ton was not stolen from Theodore Roose-
Welt. The article says in part;
II he Colonel ROOSEVELT had evidence
10 proye that Taft could not be honestly
and fairly nominated, why did he not
direct his neutenants TO present that eVl,
dence to the National committee, anu
then TO the convention and the country, SO
clearly that the convention would not
have dared to nominate Taft, and that
Taft could not, In honor, have accepted
the nomination II made?
The reason is obvious An analysis or
the testimony shows that neither Tart
nor Roosevelt had majority or honestly
or regularly elected delegates. This the
managers upon both sides well under
stood. Each candidate was trying TO seat

and he told q little story about Hotcn-

Then he said:

The applause which interrupted MN

The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1912-04-27

Really it pays to own news
paper in Chicago when you can
get away with paying $1z.32
taxes on ST 100000 palace.
There's a pull that's worth real
money.
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1912-04-27


For 10 these many years the
people of Chicago have been cry
ing upon their various. city gov
ernments to clean the streets.
And the different administra-
tions have answered alike-they
did not have the money to do it
with.
They needed all the money. they
had collected from the people for
contracts on which the gentlemen
of the administration would get
rakeroffs, apparently.
Now, with c1ild-like simplicity,
Mayor Andy Lawrence Harrison
and that organization of women
of;leisure known as the Wohnan's
City Club of Chicago, the chief
business of which is, pointing out
where other people have failed in
their duty, have hit upon plan to
get the streets cleaned.
II IS plan SO Simple, ana yet
SO ingenious, that it is a standing
disgrace that no bright politician
ever struck upon it before.
None of the taxpayers money
will be spent upon this plan.
No indeed! the taxpayers
money is to be used for subways
which will help the loop depart
ment stores gather in your shek-
els, and for plans for an outer har-
Dor that, after many years, still is
as far off as the millennium.
1t is not your MONEY that
will be used according to this
plan, but your CHILDREN.
The schools are to be closed
next week. and the children are

the remainder of the term.
And Andy Lawrence Harrison
and the Woman's City Club have
fixed itso your CHILDREN will
spend next week cleaning up the
streets that are Chicago's dis
grace.
They have preached this in the
schools, and they have got all the
children primed so they think
they will be showing their civic
spirit and pride by becoming
scavengers for Harrison's admin
istration.
OF course, some of the children
may contract typhoid, or con
sumption, or some other com
municable disease, paving
around among Chicago's filth.
But what does that matter.
The streets will be cleaned, and
Harrison will be able to save the
money the people were assessed
for keeping the streets clean to
keep his organization together,
and get the Marshall Field Big
Business museum started, and
make Lake Shore Drive beautiful
for the benefit of the millionaires
who live along its southern side.
The politicians of the past who
missed so excellent an opportun-
ity to make Chicago beautiful and
yet keep their fingers on the tax
payers money should bow their
heads in shame.
Really it pays to own a news
paper in Chicago when you can

HOW TO GROW MUSHROOMS
Tho Method Is Simple, and Finaneia,
Returns Are Good.

Mushrooms can be grown outdoors In
summer time, but the ordinary method
is to raise them in pits or cellars. Full
directions can be had where bricks Of
spawn are purchased. The beds are
made on benches along the wall or on
the floor and consist Of thick layer
Of horse manure overlaid by three or
four inches of dirt in which the spawn
is planted. Break bricks of spawn up
In small pieces and push these dry into
the earth at distances Of n foot or so
apart. If insects appear one OF the
commercial insecticides provided for
the purpose Is used.
1t IL not practicable to make the
spawn, as 1t would cost more for a
small quantity than the price of the
prepared bricks. Only large growers
make their own spawn Twelve or fif.
teen inches is deep enough for back of
bed at any time. 1t should slope down
to two or three inches at the front
The mushrooms sell at from % cents
to 81 and sometimes more pound, &C
cording to the demand and the season.

the burden of the creation Of
armies and fleets has grown
heavier md heavier. Steadily
the competition has grown more
fierce that is crushing the life
and the hope Of the peoples.
But steadily, too-and of late
even more rapidly-has grown
the hope that an escape from
these burdens may be found;
that In some measure at least
the peaceful methods Of settling
disputes among individuals may
obtain among the nations. :
Wherever good men and women
the world over are longing and
praying for the dawn Of this
great day Of peace their eyes
turn first with hope and conf
dence to the great republic Of
the west. whose ideals are OF
peace and justice. industry and
freedom. In this great move
