CHILDREN TO help W
HONOR JACKSON

r c II NJ o n d, VA.-Special.-
Feeling that the matter OF erecting
to the undying memory of Stonewall
Jackson an equestrian statue in the
city of Richmond has been too long
neglected, the Stonewan Jackson
Monument Corporation, chartered for
the purpose, has issued the following
circular. which is self-explanatory:
To the Teachers and Scholars of Vir-
ginia and the Admirers OF Stone
wall Jackson Everywhere:
"The Thomas J. (Stonewall) Jack
son Monument Corporation" has been
chartered and organized for the pur-
pose Of erecting, in the city of Rich
mond. an equestrian statue to COM
memorate the virtues and achieve
ments of "Stonewall" Jackson, one of
the greatest of military heroes, one
of the nobleSt and most patriotic of
Christian soldiers and gentlemen, and
himself a teacher and a student.
The only Jackson monument in
Richmond. the late capital of the
Confederacy, in defense of which he
fell, is the statue in the Capitol
Square" erected solely by admiring
Englishmen, the only tribute of the
kind from foreigners to any Confed-
crate leader, thus evincing the exalted
opinion in which he was held by peo-
pie of foreign lands. 1t is the opinion
of many that the work of erecting an
equestrian statue in Richmond to Gen
eral jackson has already been too long
delayed, and that the time is now
ripe for the performance of this pat
riotic duty-a duty which we owe alike
to ourselves and to those who come
after us.
We wish to make this subscription
as popular as possible, and to that
end, and that the young people may
be honored by sharing IN our works,
the association has set apart the 10th
day of May, 1912 (the forty-ninth an
niversary of General Jackson's DEATH
as "Jackson's Statue Memorial Day."
on which it earnestly asks that each
student and scholar will contribute ten
cents to the erection of this monument.
The character of Jackson was so
pure and elevated, his life OF patriotic
service so faithful and unselfsh and his
sacrifice to his country so entire, that
he may we'll be held before the children
and youth OF the land as a hero to be
admired and honored-

General Sale is opposing the measure

true. General Sc e realizes that the
bill is proper in livery way, but the
tactics being re- Jrted to for the
benefit of the officers Of the regular
army-to give them higher rank and
seniority over State officers-does not
appeal to him or to the officers of
the militia as being right, proper or

General Sale is acting I'm con-

various States and is appealing TO the
members of Congress TO defeat the
amendments and TO enact the bill as
il was offered.

SAYS RICHESON
is SURELY INSANE

BOSTON, MASS Special.-"Clar-
ence V. T. Richeson is not a sane
man; he is not mentally responsible. -
This is the statement made public
by DR.. Isador II. Coriat, an
eminent alienist. Or. COriat made a
secret examination of Richeson, who
IS condemned to die in the week be-
ginning May 18th for the murder of
Avis Linnell, spending two hours with
the man last Wednesday.
He has handed his report to the
Governor, and it will be one of the
exhibits which will be sent to the
Executive Council when it receives
the plea of Communication.
That the plea will be referred to
the council there was little doubt to-
day. Governor EOSS has let il be
known that If he is convinced Richie
son is not sane he will take such ac-
zion, and the reports of Dr. Edward
=. Lane, DR.. Coriat and DR.. l.. Yer
non Briggs are believed to leave no
doubt at this point.
1t is known on the best authority
that DR.. Briggs will report the pris-
Oner mot sane"
ported RichesOn not sane, is head or
the neurological department Of the
City Hospital. He did not make a
physical examination of the con-
demned man. He simply encouraged
Richeson 10 talk on his early life ana
asked questions, comparing the SUBJ
iect's answers with the true facts of
the former clergyman's history, sup
piled the alienist by the attorneys for
the defense.
Richeson did not always tell the
truth. Sometimes he tried to evade
pertinent questions regarding un-
pleasant incidents of his career. All
these things. Richeson's falsehoods
or veracity, his willingness or refusal
to reveal certain phases of his his
tory, his early environments and eX-
periences, were considered by Dr.
Coriat in arriving at his positive de-
cisiOn that Richeson is not sane to-
day. nor was he fully responsible for
his act when he handed pretty Avis
Linnell the drug that killed her.

TOO much TALK
HURTS MR.. TAFT

WASHINGTON, ID. c. Special
In addition to being utterly disguised
with the mud-slinging campaign,
which has been so eNhaustively con-
dlCted a.. tte RAT Roosevelt puh
Lefty bureaus, a large proportion of
tie politicians in Washington, who
for one reason or another have cast
their political fortunes with Mr.. Taft
are convinced that his lack of sue
cess in many OF the Com mon we i.ns
where he has failed to carry the State
primaries or State conventions has
been due to superabundance of ora
tory and a lamentable scarcity of bus
mess sense and organization.
Regular" Republicans are openly
perturbed over MIR. Taft's failure to
carry Maryland, not so much because
Of the strength the Maryland delega-
ton would give him numerically, as
great weakness the failure indicates
in the Taft machine.
No Excuse for Defeat.
There was absolutely no excuse for
Mr.. Tafts losing Maryland" said one
OF the Senate leaders yesterday. 1T
has been the same story throughout
this campaign, all oratory and no bus
mess organization. Practically the
only places Mr.. Taft has pulled out Of
after hard fights have been where
real organized work has been done,
not by the diffusion Of large sums of
money, but by careful encouragement
of party workers and a real effort to
get the individual voter"
The unanimous election to the Ana
Mas Club of the entire Taft campaign
by Senator Dixon, the Roosevelt man
ager. did not fan up any enthusiasm
at the Capitol Even the Democrats,
anxious to see the Republican party
split as many ways as possible, APP
peared to have become tired Of the
campaign, or perhaps, fearful lest it
should spread to their own ranks.
The friends of the Taft campaign
are decidedly discouraged over the
outlook and disturbed over the posi-
bilities of the Chicago convention.
They are worried over two things
the reported activity by Roosevelt
workers among Southern delegates,
and the outlook in Ohio. While they
will not admit that ii is absolutely
: essential to the success OF the Taft
preconvention campaign that he carry
| Ohio would be a staggering blow. And
the lack OF success in Maryland,
which, the Presidents political friends
! believe, he should have carried easily,
makes them fearful of the outcome in
the Buckeye State.
For the first time since the begin
ming Of the campaign, the influences
| least friendly to the Roosevelt move
ment are worried, and concede to
| themselves the possibility Of his NOM
! inatiOn at Chicago.
The general atmosphere around
Taft headquarters is not blue-it is
black.

Will CONFERENCE,
ELECT negro BISHOP

MINNEAPOLIS, MIMI Spe-
cial. Whether the Methodist EpiS-
cOpal Church will elect a negro
bishop caused much discussion
and some bitterness when the
General Conference of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church (the
Northern Church) was called 90
order.
At this session the negro dele
gates, OF whom there are about
100, are holding daily caucuscs-
and mapping out their campaign.
They are determined TO have a
bishop who shall have fun pow
ers and standing, and not merely
a travelling bishop, assigned 20
work i'm certain localities.
n special committee, appointed
some days ago TO consider the
matter. reported yesterday
against the appointment. The re-
port was scheduled to be con-
Sidered. The committee committee
found that If a negro bishop were
appointed he would have power
To preside over conferences of
white persons.
Ono strong objection to elect
ing negro bishop is that il would
mako any move toward amaIga-
nation with the Methodist
Church, South, extremely difficult.

National Committee Nav Dodge.

NEW YORK Special.-The Repub-

oped today, is already planning to
avoid the disa greea BILE task Of choos-

and they know the dnager of getting

Lately, through an exchange Of let
ters, half a dozen OF the most influen-
tial members Of the committee have
been talking about plan TO seat all
delegations both regular" and CON
testing, giving each individual half a
vote.
This ingenious scheme would acquit
the committee of any charge Of plot
ting TO aid one candidate or the other.
Incidentally, on the face OF present
returns, 1t would subtract 20 votes
from Mr.. Tafts 391 and add that
number to Mr.. ROoseVelts 243, which
would rate Taft 312 and Roosevelt

shown the children, and they at once
recognized il as that Of an aunt, Civ

as a condition of her guardianship
that her and her family's name and

1T may be said now, however, that
the Worlds Identification of the chill

WOULD CALL MILITIA zHSEA
To SUPPRESS ALIENS

WYTHEVILLE, VA Special
From the standpoint of the re-
pOrters present, il may be said
that the witnesses who appeared
Friday in the trial of Floyd
Allen made fine copy" but il
took a good deal of mental con-
ccntratiOn to see how they bene-
fitted the defense to any extent.
Mrs. David Ayers, the first wO-
man TO figure in the Allen case,
threw little or no light on the
shooting, although she was with
her sister-in-Iaw, Betty Ayers,
when the latter received her
death wound.
Lawyer Waiter Upton, who
was one of Aliens counsel when
the prosecution for a felony was
pending against the prisoner in
Carroll, said positively that he
noted no evidences of "a conSpi-
racy during his association with
the accused. He could recall no
word or sign preceding the SOM
Der affair of March 18th.
On the other hand, he greatly
damaged the cause of the defense
by recalling a certain occasion i'm
December, when Judge MasSie
summoned Floyd Allen and Jack
Allen before him and informed
them that he would have the law
enforced, even though he had to-
call out the State militia to do so.
This warning was given in view
to reports that the Aliens were
tampering with witnesses and
were issuing crOSS-warrantS which
Jack Allen, in his capacity of
constable, was serving. Accord
ing to Lawyer Upton. Floyd and
Jack answered the judge cOurte-
Ousiy and denied the rumors
which had reached the jurist's
ears. The witness denied that he
had heard Floyd express resent
ment with what Judge Massie
said. Nevertheless, the recital of
the incident had its effect on the
jury.
Jack AIIen, brother of the ac-
cuSed, was recalled by the de-
Tense. He gave his version Of the
incident concerning Judge Mas
sic, and also told OF a quarrel
he had with Deputy Sheriff Sam
ueIs-a quarrel I'm which both
men drew their pistols and Jack
threatened to kill SamueIs.
