It is a poor set Of statesmen that
would be unable to take care Of the
United States under present conditions.
The only thing about it all is whether
or not the people Of the United States
will be taken care of, and the outlook
for that is good

for cooperation with Rus
sia and France. For years the English
people have been doing a lot Of grumb
ling because the government had neg
lected war preparations, and because
it was thought that in the event Of
sudden emergency, the country would
he caught in an awkward position. 1t
has developed during the past few days
however, that perfect preparedness and
perfect arrangements existed through
out the entire army, and now every

Smith denied that he had voted for
Judge Haskell in 1890. Il did not vote
for him. not because l did not think he
was an honorable, upright man, but be-

Two of my uncles became estranged
from me because 1 did not vote for
Judge Haskell" He said he intended
to answer certain allegations against
his record by means Of pamphlets dis
tributed throughout the state.

w. w. Moore.

When General Moore arose to speak,
Capt Willis requested Of the audience
that he be given quiet and respectful
hearing. The request was not complied
with wholly, however. General Moore
apologized for the fight incident and
said he did not think there was man
in the audience who would not nave
acted as he did, under the circumstan-
ces. He charged Captain Willis with
being responsible for the trouble lead
ing up to the incident, and said that
Captain Willis had charged at Marion
and Conway that he (Gen. Moore), had
secured the endorsements from officers
Of the National Guard by improper
methods. Yet the matter had not come
to a head, he declared, until Captain
Willis had gotten to Yorkville, where
he was surrounded by his friends. The
speaker, who appeared somewhat eX-
cited, said he would tackle any Of these
friends single-handed
Come out" cried several men in the
audience There was again much dis
order and the chairman asked General
Moore to refrain from making such
statements
Don't bother him." said Capt Will
lis, who was still on the stand He
hasn't got much sense, anyhow"
General Moore said he was before
the people to give an account Of his
stewardship He had only followed the
law in the conduct Of his office, and
was therefore being criticised by off,
GERS of the National Guard. AS far as
property shortage was concerned,
General Mills, Of the war department,
in a letter to him, had said that most
of the shortage in militia equipment,
had occurred before his administra-
ton. The Yorkville military company
had been declared to be one Of the
poorest in state, by the war depart
ment. He had only quoted the war de-
partment and had not said so himself.
