EXPEDITION TO
AID ALLIES BEING
PLANNED BY T.R.
In Event of War, He Contem-
plates Raising Force and
Sailing For Europe

New York, Jan. 10, - Colonel Theo-
dore Roosevelt is planning 20 raise an
expeditionary force in the event of
war with Germany and to sail to Eu-
rope with it just as soon as possible,
according to excellent authority. 1t is
his intention to place this force at the
disposal of the entente generals who
have charge of the fighting scheme
and to lead 1t in accordance with their
ideas.
Those who are acquainted with the
colonePs plans say that he is making
them with the idea of joining directly
with those who are fighting Germany
now, any idea which the army and
navy officials of the United States may
have for conducting a. distinctively
American campaign to the contrary
Notwithstanding. 1t is declared that
Colonel Roosevelt feels that the send
ing of an eXpeditionary force to Eu-
rope woud give additional Zest to the
struggle of the allies and convince them
as nothing else. could that America is
whole-heartedly devoted to the cause
Tor which they are fighting.
-- Size of Force Uncertain
How large force he would raise
would depend entirely upon the con-
ditions obtaining at the particular
time at which the United States en-
tered the war. He is known to have
obtained pledges from q sufficient
number of trained men at the time
the Mexican situation was critical to
make the formation of a division pos
sible within a very short time. His
present plans are known to cover the
possible raising of corps, or even of
an army of 100000 men.

just dragging myself around.

asked me why / didn't take Tanlac

lot about it in the papers where q
good many local people spoke highly
of it.
"Well, I started taking it and the

MULTIPLIER NEXT.

Our Fiscal Court records furnish
many samples of county government
economically CD administered y
One is in the purchase of fine ad-
ding machine. The agreed price was
s247.5O, but the court. like other
folks with lots of money and an eye
to business. took advantage of 20
discount for cash, making 1t cost net
$242.55. So, il will be seen that
S4.95 was saved on this little con-
triyance, and IL was so easy, as the
county is paying only 70 on enough
money to run four ordinary banks.
Then, too, 1t is very necessary to
have this calculating apparatus, as 1t
is not practicable to determine how
much the county owes without the
services of an automatic adder; and
at the rate this Republican manage
ment is going, it will soon require
the use of a multiplier.
The last report of the County
Treasurer, a Republican, shows that
the county owes for borrowed money
more than SCI 900; and he does not
attempt to report the other outstand-
ing Indebtedness.
All the members of the court did
not favor spending the peoples mon
ey for this handy little piece of ma
chinery. The record discloses that
all the Republican members, to wit:
Dean, Smith, Rice, Leach and Shown,
voted for il, while all Democrats, TO
Wit: Judge Wilson. Tichenor and
Taylor, voted against it. This little
transaction is significant to the tax
payers in fixing the responsibility for
the large and rapidly increasing debt
burden pressing down upon the peo-
pie of this county. Shall we contin-
ne to vote as we pay?

THE LOCAL SCOUTS.

Many nice things have been said
by our citizens in commentator of
the "cleaning-up" done on Hartford S
streets by the Boy Scouts. The Her
aid gladly joins in the praise justly
due this troop OF euterprising and
patriotic volunteers, and would add
that under the leadership Of Scout
Master, Bro. Napier, these fine young
fellows are being impressed with the
importance of cleanliness in all lines
that to be true scouts they must
have clean bodies, clean minds, clean
associates, and live clean lives.
The wholesome instruction impart-
ed, the physical, mental and moral
training received, at this critical pc
Rod, mean much more than We fully
realize in the making of men, real
men, able and willing to stand for
the better things of life on all oc-
casions and under all circumstances.
The development in these desirable
channels is destined to prepare them,
not only to successfully fight for
their country; if necessary, but to
provide the armor and the shield
with which to go forth in society and
win victories in the war against
vice and immortality in forms.
To these loyal boys we would sug-
Rest that the benefits to be derived
from their association depend in a
great measure upon their own inter-
est and efforts. The faithful scout
master is doing a noble work, and
later this labor of love on his part
will be even more fully appreciated
~ the scouts and the community as
well.
