FROM OTHER PENS
A DEMOCRATIC DILEMMA.


The election of Mr.. Burleigh of
Maine to the United States senator
snip destroys another possible chance
of increasing the Democratic majority
IN the senate. DeadlockS lasting
through the spring session in several
legislatures might harm both parties,
but II the Tennessee legislature docs
not get tied up, deadlocks in other
states would merely reduce the Pc
publican strength in the senate, mas
much as the senators from those state
nave been Republicans. The most
threatening situations just now appear
to be in New Hampshire and Illinois,
where few Progressives hold the
balance of power. Tennessee, how
ever mas for some years been motor
1ous in the breeding of senatorial
deadlocks and the Democrats in the
senate need soreiy the two Demo-
cratic members which Tennessee could
now send to Washington without fur
ther delay if the Democratic factions

BIG NAVY SAYS BRITTEN
ImperativeIy Necessary to Compete
With Foreign Armaments

Washington, Aug. An emerg-
ency appropriation Sufficiently large
to begin immediate construction of
three additional battleships of the
dreadnought type" was asked for in
a resolution introduced yesterday by
Representative Britten of Illinois.
The resolution declares in a pre-
amble that the administration ap-
parently has been unable to cope
with the unsettled relations with
Japan and Mexico and declares it is
imperative to begin construction OF
additional battleships to prepare the
United States for the contingency of
war.

BRITIAN'S REAL INTENTIONS
IN REGARD To BERMUDA
ARE SIMPLY To REHABHITATE NAVAL STATION THAT WAS
ESTABLISHED
ABANDONMENT WAS AN ERROR

Bermuda Has Been British for Over
Two Centuries, and Britain Doesn't
Desire to Interfere With the Mon
roe Doctrine.
London, Aug. 6.-The Washington
reports of Great Britain's intention
10 establish a naval base in Bermuda
are regarded by the London press as
rejecting a misconception in Amer
lea of the admiralty's plans.
II is admitted that the British
squadron at Bermuda will be in
creased to four armored cruisers with
a rear-admiral in command and a
dockyard and coaling station will be
established. 1t is declared, however,
that this is merely to remedy a mis-
take that was made under Admiral
Fishers regime and for the very
natural purposes of affording great
er protection to British shipping
which makes use of the Panama
canal.
Under Lord Fishers naval redis-
tribution scheme a number of ships
that had for many years been sta
toned at Bermuda were recalled to
home waters. The four cruisers
which will now be sent there will not
be on permanent station, but will re-
turn home every summer for maneu-
vers.
The Daily Telegraph in comment
ing upon reports that the new plans
were aimed at the Monroe doctrine,
recalls that Bermuda was British be-
fore the Monroe doctrine existed and
that il became a coaling station for
the royal navy in regular use as
early as 1868.

CONGRESSMAN CLARK
Says He i Not Ashamed OF His Re-

Candidate in 1914
Washin gtOn, Aug. +.

Editor Star: Yours o. the 1st
inst. has just reached me. Some
things are mentioned in your letter
which l think I should refer TO, and
there are some observations I think
| should make in order that you may
fully understand my position.
In the beginning let me say, that
while l am not loud-mouthed about
it, nor am l forever proclaiming
that l am for the people" l am new
er afraid to let my every act be barred
to their inspection, nor am I afraid
to submit any issue 20 the judgment
of the people. 1t is my good fortune
to be somewhat acquainted with the
good people of Marion county, and |
want to tell you now that l am not
at all fearful Of the outcome when I
submit my cause to them. l have
probably been more lied about and
maligned than any man who ever
figured in the politics of Florida
Only last year the land corporations
in the Everglades and other corpora
tions spending approximately $780,
600 to defeat me. You claim to be a
peoples man." and yet you seem to
think Mr.. Hilburn would make a
better representative of ''the people"
than l would. have no quarrel
with Mr.. Hilburn at this time, but
are you aware of the fact that every
nf - h.
legislature as representative of
the people of Putnam county, he
was the paid division counsel of the
G. S. & F. Railroad Company? l
never did anything like this.
You say, ''It would have been no
use for Mr.. L'Engle to object to the
printing of your speech, or any other
particular speech, unless he could
have stopped the printing of all such
irrevelant matter" He could stop
the printing of all such irrelevant
matter" if he would only stay in his
seat and object, as it requires unani-
nous consent.
Now, as to Claude. l am sorry he
is sick, and to prove this, l will re-
late little occurrence. After he
came to Washington, 1 saw him for
the first time in the caucus of House
democrats on March 9TH. He look
ed bad. | went to him and offered to
assist him in any way l could. Later
he sent for me, and asked if there
was not some place he could lie
down and rest l told him he could
lie down in the cloakroom, whereup-

BEARING UNITED STATES BONDS
ResOrting to Disreputable Methods in
Order to Prevent Giving the Peo-
pie the Needed Relief

Washington, August 6.-Secretary
of the Treasury McAdoo is conduct
ing quiet investigation to obtain
evidence to sustain his charge that
the recent sharp decline of United
States 2 per cent bonds was due 'al-
most wholly to what appears to be
campaign waged with every indica-
tion of concerted action on the part
Of number of influential New York
city banks to cause apprehension and
to help them in their efforts to de-
feat the currency bill"
National Bank Examiner Starek,
in New York city, for several days
has been collecting data concerning
purchases and sales Of the per cent
bonds by the big banks of New York
with the purpose of determining, it is
understood, whether there has been
any unusual transactions N those Sc
curities. This movement was induc-
ed, it is believed, by the attacks upon
the secretary for expressing the opin-
ion of probable concerted effort in
New York to depress the per cents
and demands for his proof.
Resolutions to investigate the sit
uation are pending in Congress and
it is thought the secretary is prepar-
ing himself for the inquiry if it is
ordered, Starek's report has not yet
reached Washington.
Senator Owen expressed surprise
at Senator Hitchcock's attitude of
urging delay without giving
single reason for his course
THE bill presented" he added,
contains no new ideas. Every idea
in it as old as the hills"
He referred to the Bank of Eng
land as affording precedents for his
bill and had begun to speak of the
approval of the bill by Prof Charles
j. Muller of Harvard University,
when, on Senator Hoke's motion, the
vice president ruled him out of or
der.
Democratic leaders were stirred by
the clash.
