Il S NAVY l> NO MATCH FOR BRITISH
vo,ol Man Makes Comparison Ns, Showing Why U. S. Should Ruild Navy That Will Com nore With Best in World.

Washington, March 1O.-Ameri-
 ,. superdreadnaught fleet would go a. ike ninepins if pitted against U.;tsb or other craft of the same age, rantsin Simms. commander of the w n Nevada. told the house naval smmittee today. because collosal mis- .Oros in construction never had been .,4;fod Other countries had spent silions in re-designing the older .hirs to meet changed conditions. H. rstratirg this point, Captain Simms, who is lieutenant, went over the boads of his superiors to improve torget practice, said the old bulldog of the navy the battleship Oregon, nrobabIy was the worst naval design ever put afloat. Her unbalanced trrets overhceled the ship on broad eide fire until her skin below the ar mor belt was no thicker than a mans hand when exposed to gun fire.
 The turrets of the Kentucky and Koo~sarce were so designed, he de- clared that four l2-inch shells could enter the gun ports at one time. The sloping roofs of the Connecticut class turrets were built to stand short rarge direct fire and were no better than raper to with tand plunger fire. The turrcts of the Illinois class had gap in the armor at the back of the turret six to eight feet wide directly in line with the ammunition hoist. in- side.
 All these defects, Captain Simms attributed to the organizations of the department which existed for years. Captan Simms declared submarines could not defend a coast and the de fense of New York should be made 1000 miles at sea. He had know ledge that the Brltish fleet spent months behind nets in peaceful har- bors The only German submarines that got through the screens, he said had been rammed by battleship and sunk. Captain Simms said that Sec retary Daniels had fully realized the value of the war college after 25 years with no students.

FUNSTON TO BE SU.
 PREME ON BORDER
Reports Reaching General Ga vira at Juarez Indicate Villa is Dashing Through Mountains to Make Sweep on MOrmOns.

Washington, March 10.-Indica- tions late tonight were that the car rying out of President Wilson's order that American troops re-enter Mexico would be left to the man on the ground, General Funston.
 After a late conference with the president, Secretary Baker announced that no invasion of Mexico in force was contemplated; that the troops would be sent to disperse or capture the raiders and would be withdrawn immediately when their work was done.
 Officers of the general staff began at once the preparation for instruc- tions for General Funston in accord ance with this announcement. Their purpose was not revealed. Earlier, General Funston suggested the plans be kept secret. He desired to add the element of surprise to his wea- pons for averaging the murder of Americans.
 Whatever new troops are needed will be ordered promptly to the bor- der. Officials of the department and Secretary Baker worked far into the night on details of possible troop movements, supplies and the like

EMMET WASHINGTON
 IS GIVEN LIBERTY
Negro Aged A, Hero of Flood on State Farm at Cummings Relieved From Serving Bal ance of Fl Year Sentence.

Little Rock. March 11.-Emmet Washington, alias "44 Kid" aged 40 years, the negro hero af the flood on the Cummins state farm, has been given his liberty by the governor. He was sentenced Feb. 25, 1912, to 21 years in the penitentiary for first de gree murder. The pardon is granted in compliance with the following re- commendation of Commissioner J. T. Burkett:
 During the recent high waters, when it seemed the lives of 400 men were in the balance, it was deemed best to try and get a messenger by boat to the telegraph office at Werner, seven miles away, across a raging torrent of water, that the outside world might be asked for relief
 "Volunteers were called for among the assembled prisoners, but all were rctifed that whoever might start would be taking his life into his own hands, as it would be almost impos- sible to get boat through such wat CTS.
 This old negro volunteered, and insisted that he be allowed to go, and set out on his way at once. After rowing for some hours in an open boat across the icy waters, his boat was overturned. he swan around in the water here and there, from one log to another, until finally he reach ed a wire fence that the current had not yet cut out. He worked his way along the fence for about two hours, until he spied house across the wa ter, to which he swan after another two hours effort; he climbed on the roof of the cabin, this being all of the building then not under water, and lay there exhausted from exposure and exhaustion for about fifteen hours before relief came to him in the form of some one passing in a boat, anc the first thing he wanted to do was to proceed on his errand to Warner as he had been told.
 Prom the result -:r his great ex- ertion and terrible exposure he con tracted pneumonia which at his age in life will, if he recovers at all, leave him a physical wreck for life. We know nothing of the merits of this mans case before his conviction and commitment here, but we dc know he has made a model prisoner has long been a frst-class trusty, and this one act alone should win for him very careful consideration at your hands of his application for pardon.
 "We most unreservedly recommend that Emmet Washington, alias "A Kid" he granted a pardon"

Qualifications of Voters.

All white Democratic electors over the age of twenty-one years who paid their poll tax for the year 1914, are entitled to vote A young man who has just become twenty-one years of age, or who will be twenty-one years of age, at the time of the General Election the first Tuesday in Novem- Der, should be permitted to vote. If a man moved into the State after the first day of June, 1915, he would not owe pol-taX and if otherwise quail fled, should be permitted to vote.
 The committee at considerable eX- pense has furnished a list of names of those who have paid their poll tax. If a man offers to vote whose name is not on the list, and who has not moved into this State since June lst, 1915. and who has not become twen- ty-one years of age, he should be re- iected, unless he should produce pol-tax receipt dated before the first Saturday in July, 1915. Very great complaint has been caused by indis- criminate voting. The judges are warned that they must enforce these rules. or there will be danger of the vote of the entire township being thrown out. No man should be per mitted to vote whom the judges know is not a Democrat. If there IS doubt about this question, he should be sworn and asked if he voted Democratic ticket at the last General Election. If he says not, he should not be permitted to vote unless he will state on oath that he will vote the Democratic ticket at the next General Election from President of the United States down to and includ- ing the Township officers. We have had too many people voting in the primaries who paid no attention to this pledge, and the judges are called on to enforce this rule strictly. This oath to be administered should be in the following form:
 Do solemnly swear that you
