ono officer Of the navy understands
international law better than does Adj
miral Fletcher, and 1t is no secret when
I tell you that for months past Fletcher
has been studying the regulations gov
erning his work in Mexican waters,
and he knows the situation from every
angle, legal and otherwise. from A to
z. That's one Of the many reasons
why the government has such abso-
lutte trust in him and has given him a
free rein in handling the situation. The
president knows that the admiral will
do the right thing, and that he will do
it in way that will reflect credit on
the United States"
Fletcher Believed Slated.
Before the Mexican situation be-
came SD acute 1t was the general opin-
ion Of the navy that when Rear Adj
midai Badger reiinquisned mis- COM
nland as commander in chief early in
the coming year Rear Admiral Cam
eron MGR. Winslow would succeed him.
But since Fletcher has made such a
splendid record in Mexico all this has
changed, and now there are as many
who believe that Fletcher and not Win
slow will get the plum.

BELIEVED ADMIRAL FLETCHER SLATED
AS HEAD OF THE UNITED STATES NAVY

Tho reason why the Wilson adminis-
tration gives its entire confidence to
Rear Admiral Frank Friday Fletcher, q
former Iowa boy, and brother Of ]. T.
Fletcher, for many years well-known
banker Of Marshalltown, is explained in
q page feature story recently published
In the Philadelphia Ledger.
This modest. capable, and efficient
sailor, now in command of the Ameri-
can feet in Mexican waters, is given
more authority and is left to handle a
perplextng situation practically with
out restriction from officials in Wash
ington, for the reason that the admins
fration is looking upon Fletcher as the
probable head Of the United States ma
w in a few years. That the admins
tration has the greatest confidence in
this former Iowan is shown by the free
hand he has been given in dealing with
the Mexican situation.
The Ledger points to FIetchers great
record as sailor and especially to his
proficient work as the head of the ord
nance department. Fletcher is known
as strict disciplinarian, always the
master of himself and any situation
that he faces, absolutely just in all his
dealings with those who are under his
command, and loyal to the last degree
to the country and to the government
he serves.
In speaking Of Admiral Fletcher a
short time ago in Baltimore, Secretary
Daniels said:
Both the president and myself have
the utmost confidence in the ability,
the discretion, and the tact of Admiral
Fletcher"
The honor shown Fletcher by the adj
ministration leads to the belief in
Washington that he is slated for the
command Of the American navy, and
1t seems to be generally understood
in White House circles that the Iowan
Is the choice Of the president and the
secretary Of the navy for that post.
Tribute Of Brother Officer.
In speaking Of Admiral Fletcher, a
brother officer recently said:
Fletcher had handled the delicate
situation that had arisen with such
wonderful ability and discretion that
the Wilson administration was quick
to realize the Importance Of his con-
tinuing in command, not caring to
trust the command to another officer
less familiar with the facts and per-
haps not so diplomatic as is Admiral
Fletcher.
He is what would describe as the
best product Of Annapolis-clean cut
determined, conservative, efficient to
the last degree, just, and with it all
lovable, and respected by every officer
and man with whom he is associated.
He never Jumps too quickly, but he is
always ready to act the moment the
time comes to act. and have an idea

his candidacy has been announced for

in the last few days that Col. T. Fl.
Tharalson. republican candidate for
state treasurer, has assumed any for
midable aspect. For the past three
days predictions throughout Che Mis-

he will receive practically the united
republican support in the primaries,
and the newspapers, that have hereto
fore been nancommittal, are also pre-
dieting his nomination. He has been
deputy undec the present administra-
ton for the past four years, and is
considered a logical candidate for the
place, because of his experience in that
office. He has an acquaintance all over
the state, and has an eminent wal rec
ord gained in the CAM align in the
Philippine, as commander of the Graf
ton company of militia. He is still at
tached to the state national guards

A young man giving his name as Me-

Preston county, W. Va, was picked up
at the Kelly livery barn in Oakland last
Saturday by Sheriff Bert C. Scott,
charged with having stolen horse from
the barn of MIR. John Elsey, a farmer
residing near GAINESVILLE, w. Va, the
same morning.
Prior to Metheny's arrival in Oakland
Mr.. Kelly was notified by Mr.. Elsey to
be on the lookout for horse, infinitely
describing the animal he had lost. About
noon Metheny put in an appearance and
upon making an examination of the ami
NAL Mr. Kelly found that it tailed ex-
actly with the description telephoned by
Mr.. Elsey. Metheny offered to sell the
animal to Mr.. Kelly, who in the mean
time had notified Sheriff Scott, who
went to the stable and placed Metheny
under arrest. He consented to go back
to West Virginia without requision pa
pers and was taken to Terra Alta the
same evening by the officers of that
town and placed in the lookup. Some
time during Sunday morning Metheny
battered the side out of the prison and
made good his escape and is still at
