PUBLIC OPINION AND The WAN

PUBLIC OPINION AND THE WAR.
Public opinion Is against the var.
That is the one fact which stands out
from the welter Of argument for and
against the two sides. from expiana-
tons, Qualifications and attachments.
American newspapers are unanimous
in the statement that the var Is a
heinous crime against Civilization
The American people stand aghast-
Men Eho hare devoted their intelli-
gence to the Development of agricul
rurs and industrial enterprise see in
the war endless calamity The.aTer-
age man sees in It the murder Of
thousands, perhaps millions of human
beings
War Of itself may be wise or IN
wise, inst or unjust says the New
York World. but that the issue o. q
worldwide war should rest In the
hands of few men and that the hun
dreds OF millions who wiz bear the
burden and be affected in every re!a-
ton OF life ~ the outcome Of such /.
var should passiveiy leave the deci-

ment OF civilization itself"

difficult to understand what was to
be gained by standardixing the entire
road system and bridge work Of the

MARTIN ALLUDES ID RECENT FIGHT
 WITH ). H. RIDDLE Says Friends Interfered When Riddle Struck
 Him and Prevented
 Further Blows

Montgomery. March 21.-(SpeciaI) William L. Martin. candidate for at torney general, returned today from a | trip to east Alabama and tonight gave the Montgomery Age-Herald corres- pondent a statement in reply to one given out during tho early part of the
 week by D. II. Riddle of Talladega, one
 of his opponents.
 l Mir Mar in s statement Is as follows:
 "In MT. Riddles defense to the in-
 dictments and suits against him. as
 contained in The Ase-Herald of March
 IT. he refers to difficulty between i himself and me which occurred some
 months ago.
 'l will not strain the patience of the
 public to reeite the details of mat ter too pefsonal to be settled in the
 press. Tde difficulty arose out of my
 telling MT Riddle not to address me, stating my reason that he had been making false statements regarding me. Upon his suddenly striking me imme-
 diate and determined interference by two gentlemen prevented further blows
 "He criet out that he was tired of being 'hounded all over the state and
 called liar, whereupon l suggested that he might ohviate this by being truthful.
 Were 1t not for the possibility of
 this man not yet being thoroughly
 known and exposed l should not ask the public indulgence in answering him. for his charges and insinuations deserve no further public notice. "But I wish to assure my friends that they have no reason to question my personal conduct on the occasion l referred to.
 l MT. Riddles questions regarding cer- tot, toy t,,ct f., hat Mr. | Martin was guilty of improper conduct | in office. Were it not for this insinua- 1 ton l would ignore them.
 "Mr. Martin wrote no opinion holding 1 that certain corporations were not liable i for their franchise taxes; the supreme | court handed down such an opinion in | the case of Chnnabee Cotton mills vs.
 representing Montgomery Abstract com | pany, which had erroneously paid this | tax. I requested its refund by the audi l tor who, upon attorney generals advice, declined to honor my request On Augna: | %, 1910, l filed suit in the name of this | corporation in the circuit court of Mont | gomery county. which suit was won by the auditor, who was represented by the attorney generals office. I did not pros- ecute appeal, my connection with the | matter ending there.
 "I was not a partner of Mir. Thomas w. Martin. though associated with him in tla~ ~"r otice
 "It Ia not surprising that abuse and | fan-e q ,Jwar me and toward others
 not publicly concerned in my campaign should arise solely out of the chagrin arl disappointment which MT. Riddle mus feel over the public exposure of his Ike
 and character.
 with confidence in the judgment of n fair minded public I willingly submit 10 it to determine whether such abuse and
 islander and appeal to maudlin sympathy
 as is contained in MT. Riddles attempted defense shall be successfully used to dim the critical eye of public justice so as to permit man of questioned character to
 be elected to an office demanding honest ,dealing."

RAILROADS STILL RELEASING ORDERS Rail Orders Past Week Amount to 2S,000
 Tons

New York. March I.-The Indication Is that new business in rolled steel products is coming to the mills at the rate of 10 to 50 per cent of total capacity. Speci- fications on contracts are 10 to 15 per cent better than orders, but at this rate rolling schedules are likely to be reduced next week
 The railroads continue 10 release or ders for equipment with parsimonious hand, rail orders last week amounting to 2s,0O0 tons, including 5i00 tons for the Ontario and Western. 300o tons for the Chicago and Great Western. 5000 tons for the Chicago Junction, 40o0 tons for the American Railways company, about 1000 tons for manufacturers of frogs and switches and 1000 for export to Brazil. The car orders placed included 5000 for the Southern railway and 800 for the Illinois Central. The latter road is still nego- tiating for 25O0 cars. The New York Gen. tral' has taken bids on S600 cars.
 There was again considerable activity this week In structural work, the fabrlcat- ing shops booking orders for about 36,0Oo tons. The largest fabricated steel orders, however. were at the exuense of prices. Plates and bars, as well as shapes, suf- fered a decline of $1 to s2 a ton
