BE VI USTERED OUT
War Department Issues Orders for Discharge of $4,000 Men
Recently Withdrawn From the Border and It Is Elk
pected That Additional Troops Will Be
Demobilzed at an Early Date

There are about 1000 guardsmen still
in state mobilization camps and these
probably will be dispatched to the bor-
der very soon to relieve men now serving
there. Secretary Baker favors giving all
the state troops chance for the train
Ing to be acquired on the patrol line.
Todays orders were construed by
scme officials as preliminary move
to the withdrawal of General Pershing'
regulars from Mexico. Officers of the
general saff insisted, however. that the
release of the guardsmen resulted princi-
pally from the improving conditions of
the border.
The original order for all guardsmen
in the federal service to move to the
border as soon as possible, although held
In allegiance by General Funston's request
received by the department when the rail-
road strike was imminent, has not been
revoked. Secretary Baker Is expected TO
lift the suspension shortly and permit
troops waiting In mobilization camps to
move as soon as they are ready.
The order releasing the college men re-
quires them to go to their home mobili-
.zation camps for mastering out and
resuming their status in the state guards.

HELM TOSPEAK
IN KENTUCKY WITH
VICE PRESIDENT
Blue Grass Voters Prepare
for Coming of Marshall
and Eloquent Orator
From Alabama
ny HUGH w. ROBERTS

Washington, September 7-(Special)
To open the democratic campaign in Ken
lucky, Representative Helm of Alabama
will leave Washington Friday. He and
Thomas r. Marshall, vice president of
the United States, win speak at Win
chester on Saturday.
From news which has reached the cap
ital, the people of Winchester, the ma
jority of whom love the Lord and vote
the democratic ticket, have for more than
a month been preparing for the coming
of tho second in comBrnd,s' and the elo-
quent Alabamian. In addition TO the
speaking, there will be an old-fashioned
democratic barbecue. In all probability
too, in other respects essentially Ken
tuckian, the day will be fittingly OBJ
served.
Representative Heflln as heretofore re-
ported in. these dispatches, is depended
upon by the democratic speaking bureau
to do yeoman service in speeches in the in
terest of democratic members of Congress
from Pennsylvania. He was honored by
having been designated formally to open
the democratic campaign in Maine. In
that state, he delivered three addresses
and it is his belief that the people of
Maine will not only retain in office tho
democratic incumbents but will over
whelmngly put the state in the Wood
Wilson column.
Practically, from the adjournment Of
Congress until the date Of the presidential
election, Mr. Helm will be on the hust-
ings. He is enthusiastic in the work be-
cause he is devoted to Mr.. Wilson, and
feels certain that the President will be
reelected by Landslide majority"

ATTORNEY GENERAL
CLAIMS IS WITHIN
RIGHTS OF OFFICE
Sends Letter to Governor
Defending Position and
Answering Criticism as
to Girard Investigation

Montgomery. September 7-(Special)
the squabble between the Governor Hen
derson and Attorney General Martin when
the latter made public letter replying TO
the governors letter of August 26. Mr..
Martain declares that his handling of the
state funds" in connection with the Rus
sell county Investigations" was entirely
proper and not subject to just criticism"
of the expenses incurred in the probe
and enters into great detail regarding
his negotiations with the chief executive
on the Girard situation
MIR. Martin says that he does not re-
call having told the governor, with ref
ference to the Daniel impeachment mat
ter. that he (theN attorney generaD al
ready had sufficient evidence to condemn
any man" without the necessity of in
the controversy. He rectes at length the
handling of the Girard situation. He
again challenges the use of the word
Irregularities by the executive in con-
nection with the probe.
Il have endeavored to exercise
scrupulous care in matters relating to
state funds, Mr. Martin declares. Il
was aware that in fighting lawlessness
and official misconduct | should be SUBJ
ject to criticism by those interested and
by those who were made to feel the
sting OF the law. / confess, however that
l did not expect this criticism from
the chief executive" Mr.. Martin states
also that he personally advanced the
greater part of the funds used in the
Russell county work. and says the ex-
penses were in no sense extravagant.
The controversy was precipitated dur
ing the latter part of August when the
attorney general, on behalf of J. R. DAILY,
entered mandamus proceedings in an eff
fort to compel the governor to approve
an account for Sill incurred by DAILY in
making Investigations in Russell county.
The legal phase of the question will be
heard September %. The governor con-
tends that such expenses cannot be in
Cured without his consent
