GEM COUNTY LEANS To
GEN. WOOD
Sentiment Strong for Soldier
Statesman as Republican
Presidential Nominee

Will Gem county Republicans give
their support to the candidacy Of Gen.
eral Leonard Wood for the nomina-
ton as president on the Republican
ticket? Present indications are that
they will.
Since the publication Of an article
from the Atlantic Constitution Ia
Democratic newspaper) in the edi-
torial columns Of The Index last
week, in which Gen. Woods qualifica-
tions fof the position rs chief execu-
tive Of the Nation we're set forth,
nAay Of tho leading Republicans Of
the county have by word or letter
expressed themselves as strongly in
favor Of his candidacy. While the
article seems to have been considered
as an editorial expression Of The In
dex, such was not the case, as q moro
careful reading will show. Neverthe-
less, The Index unqualifiedly endorses
the Atlanta papers frank and fair
estimate of Gen. Woods ability and
attributes
The following letter received dur
ing the past week expresses the SEN
timents of very considerable num-
Der Of the Republicans of Gem coun-
ty. The letter is signed, "A Constant
Reader and Admirer of The Index"
Editor Index:
II read your editorial last week con-
cerning Gen. Woods candidacy for the
nomination for president on the Re-
publican ticket and was pleased. Az
one IA Republican, I would like to
see him in the White House. He has
always made good. Has had broad
educatibn, travelled extensively, and
had to do with many Of the vital
things that effect our governmsnt
just now, and always, whether in
Europe, Cuba, the Panama, or the
Philippines, has delivered the goods.
81 believe Idaho, the Gem state,
should be for Wood for president,
since our own Senator Borah is not
candidate. Let US at least put Gem
county on record for him."

Leslie r. Craigie, first secretary of the

Department and informally discussed his
action In sending letter directly to a
committee OF the Senate rather than
through the department as required by
diplomatic etiquette
Beyond admitting that Mr.. Craigie had
discussed the incident department offi-
cials declined to comment upon Mr..
Craigies visit. 1t was stated that no
formal communication had been ex-
changed between the department and the
British Embassy and that no visit, for
NAL or informal. had been made by Sir
Auckland Geddes. the British Ambassa-
DOR
Attention was called TO the fact that
Sir Auckland has been i'll for several

soon as he has recovered the Ambassa-
dor will offer an apology and explain
either I'm person or by letter.

antee there will be no evacuation in
1896"
Insisting that NJ. Tardieu is right, NJ.
Danielou. secretary of the Foreign Az
fairs Commission. writing in the Ecior,
demands that France notify America
and Great Britain that she proposes TO
act in accordance with this. both these
nations having virtually repudiated the
enga gements they made before Premier
Clemenceau. He says:
1--WE have too much confidence in the
loyalty of the British and the American
people 10 believe. for instance. that the
only real guarantee which could be given
in the future in connection with Ger
many would consist in suppressing the
limit Of our occupation"
The Aronir also supports NJ. Tardieu,
insisting that the occupation limit auto
maticai,y disappears with the failure OF
the alliance treaties.
"It is a question of goodNfaith. and we
do not doubt the good faith of our
friends" il says. mo pact of guarantee :;
no evacuation. That must be understood
in Berlin as we'll as in London ana
Washington"
on the other hand there are many
newspapers here which disagree with NJ.
Ta-dieu on this point. The Echo de Paris
replies TO his letter that while 1t ap-
proves his object yet il is plain from
reading Article 429 that such an inter-
pretation as NJ. Tardieu places upon IL
would have to be agreed TO by both the
United States and Great Britain before
France could act.
The Intransi0eant says that continued
occupation could not be automatic, for
Article 429 imposes on France the neces-
sty Of establishing before the allied ana
associated Powers the fact that Ger
many's guarantees were not sufnoient be-
fore she could continue the occupation
