candidate on the Democratic ticket for
the office of County Judge of your
County 1t the coming August election,
"a view OF the fact that ] served
the Comfy OF Garrard so long as
County Judge, ! think it is right and
proper that | should briefly at least re-
view the history Of the county in its
financial matters during the time | was
IN office and when left office, and also
during the last three years in which
Judge Arnold has he'd the office Of
County Judge. and | ask Of the Demo-
cratic voters of this County a careful
consideration Of these facts and figures
which here give to them.
When went into Office in January,
1902, the County was indebted in the
sum of $35, 600, and Of this sum S33, 600
was the road bond issue and 81. 900 req

WITHHOLD RECORD OF
WORK.

Paris, Dec. 5-The interallied war
conference was closed late yesterday
with a brief address by Colonel E. M.
House, chairman of the American
mission. Colonel House, who deliv-
cred the closing address at the re.
guest of Premier Clemenceau, said:
IN Clemenceau, the president OF
the French council, in welcoming the
delegates to this conference, declared
that we had met to work. His words
were prophetic. There has been co
ordination and a unity of purpose
which promise great results for the
future.
1T is my deep conviction that by
this unity and by concentrated effort
we shall be able to arrive at the goal
which we have set out to reach
"In behalf of my colleagues want
to avail myself of this occasion ia
thank the officials of the French gov
eminent and, through them. thu
French people, for the warm wei
come and great consideration they
have shown us.
Tn coming to France we have felt
that we were coming to the house Of
our friends. Ever since our govern,
ment was founded there has been
bond Of interest and sympathy be
tween sls-a sympathy which this
war has famed into a passionate ad.
miration
THE history of France is history
of courage and sacrifice Therefore
the great deeds which have illumi.
mated the last three years have como
as no surprise to us of America. We
knew that, when called upon, France
would rise to splendid achievement
and would add luster to her name.
America salutes France and her
heroic sons and feels honored to fight
by the side Of so gallant comrade."
No announcement of what the coun.
Gil did was issued, but resolutions

SUPREME WAR
BOARDFAVORED
CONGRESS WILL GET BILL PRO-
POSING COUNCIL OF THREE
MEN.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 5.-The
first drive of congress will be to give
the president war council. In a
dozen different forms this thought is
becoming manifest.
The idea disagrees with the presi-
dents notions of carrying on the
war.
He headed of resolution for this
sort of committee in the last days Of
tho previous session, when Senator
Owen formulated the notion Of non
partisan advisory board to wise the
expenditures.
FOR SUPREME BOARD.
Now Representative Britten of Hi.
nois is preparing bill which pro-
vides for committee of three to be
appointed by the president and to be
presided over by him, who" shall con-
stitute supreme Council of National
Defense, and he asks an appropria-
ton of 100000 to pay its expenses.
This would demolish the edifice Of
war bureaus that has been so pain
fully erected. The council OF national
defense. with it's advisory council of
big business men; the shipping board,
the food bureau. the fuel bureau, the
war industries board, and even the
superwar council that held its first
meeting yesterday, would be subordi.
mated, il not wiped out, il Mr.. Brit
tens bill became a law.
PRESENT SYSTEM TOO SLOW.
He expressed this very idea In a
statement on the subject.
Until we have supreme directing
power in the management OF the CO.
lossal military burdens brought about
by the worlds war the country need
hope for no spectacular success, but,
on the contrary, can be certain of the
slow. costly, inefficient preparation
which has crowned our first eight
months participation.
"The present council Of defense is
a patchwork of many committees
without authority. each yainly striv'
ing to make some reasonable show
ing against insupcrable obstacles, and
yet depending upon each other for q
reason to exist.

Almost Certain That War De-

Once Sending Them Else
where For Training-Tennes-
scans May Come TO Columbia

Washington, Aug. 29.-It has be-
come practically certain that no ne
groes will be sent to Southern camps.
which, of course, includes the camps
In South Carolina. Official announce
ment to this effect is expected to be
made Immediately.
Careful investigation made for the
past two days concerning rumors to
the effect that the Florida draft army.
which was scheduled to go to Camp
jackson, would have its place taken
by tennessee troops failed today of
confirmation when Provost Marshal
General Crowder said that "officiallyn
he had no information concerning the
matter and that so far as he knew
the original plan would stand.
1t is apparent, however, that Cen
erai Crowder is expecting orders from
the Department of the Southeast.
which may very materially change
the plans at Camp Jackson, the negro
question being at the bottom of the
matter.
While General C1owder today said
that he did not wish to 90 into this
phase of the situation, plans might be
changed, although nothing of the kind
has yet come to his office Officially"
Army officers at Camp Jackson,
Camp Wadsworth and Camp Sewer
are understood to be watching this
matter closely, in as much as change
in the plans at the former camp NAV
cause some of them to be detailed to
other points than their present loca
tions.
1t is known that since it was de-
cided not to send the Puerto Ricans
to Camp Jackson, the war department
authorities have been at work rear
ranging plans to make up the re-
quisite number for Camp Jackson
without too seriously interfering with
the plans of the other camps.
Since no Puerto Ricans are to be
sent to South Carolina a vacancy of
about $4,000 exists which department
officials are now endeavoring to fill,
apparently by the substitution of the
tennessee meme. AS stated, however.
there is nothing official here yet con-
