And just here the political machine

this are many other good measures,
among them the headless ballot.
All these foregoing are so-called

WASHINGTON, Aug. T.-Fredar-
ick Palmer. world famous war cor
respondent, will represent tho United
Press and all other American press
associations at tho front with the
British army. When the British war
office announced that only one Amer
lean newspaper man would be per-
m1tted with the army, tho American
press associations agreed that Palm
er was the best fitted for the posi-
tion. He was in London. All press
associations will receive his reports
simultaneously.
Frederick Palmer has been a war
correspondent in all conflicts since
the Greek war of 1897. He was in
the Klondike with the gold rush; hap
pened to be in the Philippines in 1898;
returned with Dewey in 1899 and in
1900 was with the allied army that
marched to Picking. A little later he
was in the thick of Central American
revolutions and 1903 saw him in
Macedonia for the instruction there.
During the Russo-Japanese war he
was attached as correspondent to the
first Japanese army. In 1907 he re-
ported the young Turks movement and
in 1912 he covered the Balkan war
He arrived at Vera Cruz shortly after

Of insurance for government war risk

can be made less harsh by president
