FRICTION IN PAST YEARS

Officers Of the National Guard Of the
District of Columbia say they are not
disturbed by the publication of state
ment that Col. Joseph G. Garrard, 18th
Cavalry, L. S. A, has recommended to
the War Department that the brigade be
reorganized. Col Garrard's report recon-
mends that the government employees be
eliminated from the present organization
and formed into a separate or reserve
regiment. The idea is said by officers to
be strongly suggestive that the recon-
mendation is scheme whereby govern
ment department heads and chief CLERKS
will be able to keep national guardsmen
from doing military duty in preparation
of the defense of their country.
Col. Garrard's report has not been made
public by him. 1t was sent to Governors
Island. N. Y, to the Department of the
East, and from there will be sent to the
War Department Col. Garrard was the
army officer in command of the joint
camp of instruction at Bolivar Heights,

certain regular troops had to be assigned

BY N. O. MESSENGER.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, October 1S-At last the
republicans are beginning to buck up and
show signs of little courage and hope.
They have been going around with droop-
ing ears like a gun-shy hound dog.
There is no doubt that conditions have
frightened materially and perceptibly in
every state. In some localities where
certain defeat stared them in the face two
weeks ago they now lift their despairing
eyes, brush away a tear and smile.
These improved conditions inspired the
western management today to send forth
a word of hope and cheer to the brethren
who are bearing the heat and burden in
the field. The statement is presented
herewith without comment and upon the
sole responsibility of its authors. Director
Mulvane and Chief Organizer Healing.

GOES TO U. S. SUPREME COURT.
Will Decide Whether Gen. du Pont
Nav Build Boulevard for Delaware.

The Supreme Court Of the United States
is to decide whether I. Coleman du Pont
may build boulevard for Delaware
from one end Of the state to the other.
John H. Clendanel, land owner. who
objects to his land being condemned for
that purpose. has filed an appeal from
the decision of the supreme court of Del
aware, holding constitutional the special
act of the legislature accepting the du
Pont offer.
Along with the offer was condition
that Gen. du Pont be permitted to con-
struct a public utilities, such as street
car line, alongside the vehicular road,
and it is against this feature of the act
that Clendaniel chiefly objects.

Unpleasant Experiences.

This may be taken to mean that a
government clerk would not have to get
his legal military leave every summer to
perfect himself as defender of his coun-
try. Nearly every officer in the National
Guard of the District of Columbia has
had unpleasant experiences with heads OF
government bureaus who threatened men
if they took their legal right and went to
camp with their regiment. In every case
that has been taken higher up" to a
cabinet officer or his assistant it is ex-
planned, the bureau chief has backed
down with surprising rapidity.
The policy of President Taft has been
to encourage government employees in
their military duties, but many a chief
clerk has put the work of his office ahead
of the patriotic spirit that has prompted
men to serve in the brigade, it is said
If Col Garrard's recommendation ever
becomes a law it will practically make it
impossible for government employee to
serve in the National Guard The local
brigade was established by an act of Con-
gress, and cannot be reOrganiZed except
by another act of Congress

Thirteen Classed as Doubtful.

Several nominally republican states
are doubtful because the third party may
take enough votes from the republican
ticket to leave the democrats with plu-
rality While the republican managers
have information which leads them to be-
lieve that these states will be loyal to the
republican party. they are not prepared
at this time to make an absolute claim.
They. therefore, place these states in the
doubtful column:
Arizona, 3; Colorado. 6; Arkansas, 10;
Kentucky, Is: Indiana, To-. Minnesota, II;
Nebraska, s; Nevada, 3; New Jersey, IA:
North Dakota, ); Oklahoma, 10; Tonnes
see. 10; West Virginia, s. Total, 119.
'If there ever was any doubt where
Illinois would be at the November cleo
ton it was removed when Gov. Deneen
and the whole republican state orsaniza-
ton declared unequivocally for the
President. and the governor, in a public
statement, exploded the statement of the
injustice at the national convention, in
which the third party was making "a
fearful appeal for votes. From that mo-
ment Illinois has been republican"

Employees in the Guard.

Some time ago Col Garrard asked bril-
gade headquarters for a report on the
number of national guardsmen who are
in government employ and who attended
camp. 1t was reported that S3 officers
and 4S5 men in camp were government
employees, and that thirty-nine men OF
this class We're absent. AS the total camp
figures were about 600. the government
clerks and employees make percentage
of one-third of the total. Col. Garrard's
report suggests that if the total member
ship of the brigade was called out for
war service the government departments
here would be crippled seriously at a
time when every cler4, was needed and
every employee in the gun shop at the
navy yard required. de recommends that

Public Sentiment
Brings About Change.

most important change that has come
about in our method of selecting presi-
dental candidates has not been a consti-
tutiOnal nor yet even legal change. 1t
has been another change brought about
by public sentiment. 1t is the custom of
electing electors by the general ticket
plan rather than by the district plan. 1t
is just IL we should decide to elect all
of our members of the House of Repre-
sentatives by the state at large instead
of by congressional districts. For in
stance, Pennsylvania today has eight
democratic members of the House of
Representatives and twenty-four repub-
If the vote should be the same in No
vember as it was two years ago the
Pennsylvania vote in the electoral col
lege would be cast thirty-four for the re-
publican candidate. Under the district
plan it would be eight democratic and
twenty-six republican. The latter was in
tended to be the plan. and was generally
adopted at first. Each congressional dis
own member of Congress- and the state
at large had two electors, just as it had
two senators.
But that plan did not work very well.
The states which chose their electors by
the legislature direct soon came to
choose them as body and had them cast
their votes as a unit This arose from
the fact that a state legislature was
either federalist or anti-federalist and
whichever party was in the majority
wanted the full electoral college to be
of its own political complexion. When
few of the states had decided to thus
cast their vote in a lump the other
states found that If they split theirs

ate influence in the selection of Pres!-
dent. Under this pressure the states
one by one. went over to the general
ticket plan. Maryland was the last state
