MIR. GARDENERS POSITION.

Mr. Gardner. IN referring TO his re-
fusal 10 answer the questionairre OF
the Farmers Union and the Fedora
tion of Labor. declares he will be
elected unfettared or not at all The
laboring man, Ia reply intimates the
shelby man promised the Merchants
Association TO use his influence. IL
elected. to secure reduction in
freight rates. This. if true, is a fiat
refutation Of his high and mighty
stand to so into office unpledged, un-
der no obligation to any class. or
clique. If he saw fit 10 pledge him
self to the merchants. he could not
consistently ignore the questionairre
Of The farmers and the laboring nen.
There are questions Just as import
ant to the farmers and the laboring
men as reduced freight rates are to
the merchants; and some of them,
like cheap freight rates, affect all
classes of people0
In this papers opinion. Mr. Gard
ner is a great straddler on public
questions. So far. he has dealt ia
generalities. covering everything, but
touching nothing specifically. Unless
he is moved TO take the people into
his confidence, we must believe, as
his opponents co, that he stands for
only two things; i. e., For long life
and against ignorance.
What a contrast i'm Mr.. Page and
Mr.. Morrisonl They have courage
ously stated their position on impor-
tnat issues, lodging nothing, but
coming out squarely for or against
grave questions, They do not ask the
people to vote for them lind-folded.
Neither do they say, in substances:
Trust me, and I'll do the right
thing"
Personally, Mr.. Gardner is a gem
tleman of the highest standing. He
is clever, honest, and is not lacking
In ability; but the time has come
when North Carolinians must elect
men TO responsible positions on is
sues, not personalities.

Suffered Two Years

For about two years I suffered with malaria fever and bad blood, trying everything that was recom- mended to me without benefit.
 Finally someone told me about Number 40 for the Blood and I pur- chased a bottle from our merchant. MT Walter Page. and it did me so much good that I kept on taking it, using in all 31a bottles. Today I am feeling fine and do not hesitate to recommend it for any trouble for which it is recommended.
 You are at liberty to use this let ter any way you desire. for I know what Number 40 is"

SALVATION ARMY DANCE: TONIGHT
 AT WARREN
Gay Evening Promised in Aid of Organization That Was
 Soldiers Friend

The Salvation Army dance under the direction of the Bisbee Lodge of Elks at Warren park tonight, is ex- pected to be one of the leading events Of the summer season. The cause for which the dance was planned, to raise the Warren districts share of ! fund for the support of the Saliva tion Army. has elicited the generous support of residents here, who have already purchased hundreds of tickets.
 The purchaser of a ticket, wheth. er he is able to attend the dance or not, can feel that he has donated S1 to the support of the Salvation Army as the expenses of putting on the dance will be practically nothing. The music is donated by the American Legion.
 Women of the district are giving the dance their hearty support, and practically every girl in the district has promised to be present. There will be no lack of partners for any men who care to "stag it.

PLAN MONUNEN IN BIS 3 [ [ r OR
 JAMES DOUGLAS
Simple Shaft of Stone from Bisbee Mine Suggested
 for Memorial

Plans for the erection Of a monu ment to the memory of Dr. James s. Douglas were put under way with a joint meeting yesterday of commit tee of the Luncheon club and the di- rectors of the Commercial club.
 It was the opinion Of those who have undertaken the project that the mines and smelters and the general development of the district already constitute monument to the memory of James 6. Douglas, but that the res dents of BiSbee would like to put themselves on record as appreciative of his efforts and to make some sort \of a permanent, historical record whereby they may be reminded of his life and strangers in the city may may learn something of the origin of the great Bisbee copper camp.
 It was agreed, by those who knew Douglas personally, that he would be best pleased with something simple, rather than an ornate and eXtrava- gant piece of work shaft of mala- chite ore from the local mines with inscriptions . in bronze plates and a bronze base was suggested, the metal to be cast at the local smelters.
 The opinion was expressed that such a monument should be placed somewhere in the city rather than on Queen hill as was first suggested.
 The following committee was ap- pointed to make further investigation as to a suitable place for the erection of the monument, to draw tentative plans for it's construction and to es- innate the cost: Ira B. Joralemon, Arthur Notman, B. L. Smith, Dr. N. C. Bledsoe and J. R. Henderson. This subcommittee will report to the com mittee as a whole in 30 days.

DANIELS SAYS
 HE VII l. SHOW
 PLANS OF NAVY
Secretary Finally Consents to Prove Assertion of
 Preparedness

WASHINGTON, May 2I.-A read ing contest between Secretary Daniels and Chairman Hale of the senate naval investigating committee, devel- opeG today in the cross examination ot the secretary.
 Exhaustive excerpts from conflict ing testimony of other witnesses as to the naSy's conduct of the war were cited. Most of the interchanges had to do with the navy's plans for war with Germany prior to America's s entry.
 The secret2r yinsisted that complete plans had existed Senator Hale said ther had Len much talk of these pians but that the committee had not seen them, despite repeated reQuss.
 MT. Daniels expressed doubt as to the wisdom of disclosing them in de tail. After conference with Rear Ad- miral aBdger, head of the general naval plans ready in 1917 should be laid before the committee in executive session next week. The secretary warned the committee that while no longr applicable to Germany the plans embodied basic strategy that would govern the navy in meeting any power in the Atlantic. It was for that reason that an executive session was stipu- lated. he said.
 Through his cross examination the secretary maintained that the commit tee which investigated the award of navy war honors, also headed by Sena- tor Hale. had exceeded its authority in forcing "ostentatious" publication of Admiral Sims letter criticising the departments conduct of the war. When the chairman agreed that the committee had ordered the letter pro- duced the secretary said that some one" had previously caused it's publi- cation in the press and that Admiral Sims had it in his pocket" when he appeared to be questioned on naval awards and produced it in order with dramatic gestures"

LABOR FUND TO
 PUSH WOOTTON
 CASE IS SHORT
Douglas Council Wants to Know What Became of
 Its Missing $l075

TOMBSTONE, May 21.-While pro- tests against continuation of the de- portation trials are boring in upon the disensions in the ranks of those who sought to aid him the prosecution of the first case are coming to the county seat. The latest of these has reference to the fund raised by the Labor council of Douglas to assist the county attorney in the Wootton action
 Acording to figures which have been made public here, the Labor council in the Shelter City raised a fund Of about $4.000 which was to be used in gaining, if possible, a conviction in the Wootton case. Of this amount, ac- cording to the tabulated report, S1,250 was paid to Fred w. Brown complaining witness in the Wootton case and special deputy sheriff at tached to the district attorneys office to uncover evidence, find witnesses. and perform other duties in connec- tion with the deportation cases. With this money, il is said, Brown bought the automobile which he has been using in his work for the county at torney.
 Other expenditures are listed in the report, but with all of these, including the money declared to have been paid to Brown, there is an alleged defici- ency of about $1,075. concerning which a large number of the members of the Douglas organization are declared to be much exercised. The deficiency in the report is aid to have been the cause of warm meeting of the Labor Council a few nights ago, when a strict accounting of the fund was re- quested by those who had contributed to it.
 Although the county attorney spent today in Douglas, it is declared that this did not mean that there was any cessation Of the stream Of protests which have been coming into his of flee since the rendering of the verdict in the Wootton case. The stream was merely diverted to Douglas, according to word brought here, and the number of protests was so large and their tone so insistent that the county attorney, in conversations with friends, con- mentcd upon them and the probability that he would return to Tombstone immediately to get away from them.
