Possible Foul
Play in Injury to
Benton MOtOrman

Albert Smith of Benton Station, a
'motorman employed by the Water
VILE Fairfield and Oakland Railway
Co, is resting comfortably at a local
hospital taken there late Saturday
night after he had been rendered
unconscious while standing near his
car on lower Silver street. Smith
was found by the conductor of the
car, lying some 10 feet from the
car across the tracks. He was TAX
en- Immediately to a nearby house
and DR.. F. E. Wheeler was sum
moned. From there the man was
taken to the hospital, where Dr..
Wheeler and DR.. John G. ToWne
made X-rays of Smiths injuries, dis
closing that he had received a Sc
we're fracture Of his right hip. Be-
sides this injury he had received a
blow on the back Of the head from
! blunt instrument.
Smith, when he had recovered con-
sclousness, said that he remembered
absolutely nothing from the time
when he stepped from the back of
the car until he awoke in the hos
pltal The belief was advanced that
ne had fallen from the car when he
started to change the trolley, but
both the doctors said this did not
seem plausible as it would be out
OF the question to believe that such
TALL would result in injuries such
as those Smith received. The in
!ured man suspected that he had
oeen the object of foul play and DR..
wheeler was inclined to agree with
inis belief. AS yet no solution to
me mystery has been offered.

you come here year after year as every
true, loyal American citizen should
come, to honor and respect and to
think cherished thoughts about these
men and women, both old and young.
who have at some time in their lives
heard their country's call and answer
ed 1t with the best that was in them.
You have demonstrated your true cit
izenship.
For great many years 1t has been
the custom to direct our thoughts on
Memorial Day to the various periods
OF strife in the history of our country
and to the sacrifice that so many thou
sands Of our cherished American man
hood have made that the civilization
in their native land might profit by
their noble beliefs. It is my honest
conviction, and I say it with no little
degree of thought, that. regardless of
however complete a scheme for the
peaceful settlement of international
disputes may be devised, war will
have its place in the future history of
this country Of ours and Of our entire
civilization as it has had in the past.
Unless the very nature of man is
changed, wars are inevitable and, fur
thermore, when it comes to fighting
for the preservation and protection of
an ideal, that whole armies of men
and whole nations of men recognize
and believe to be right such a struggle
is entirely justifiable.
I'VE have with us this afternoon
men who are personally acquainted
with the facts leading up to the great
Civil War of '61. We are familiar, one
and all, with what these men set out
to accomplish. We know what they
went after and we also know that they
got exactly what they went after,
which in and of itself is mighty fine
tribute. Is there a man among US
who can face his comrades and say
that this war was not justifiable and
that it should never have been fought?
, Indeed there is not. It was held as a
principle by the founders of our coun-
try that all men are created free and
equal and 1t was in support of this
ideal that no less than $4,000 men re-
sponded to President Lincoln's call
for troops in the short period of two
months. Today in every village, city
and hamlet in the country the people
have gathered the two million Boys
in Blue who marched onto the battle
held to preserve the Union. abolish
slavery, and make everlasting the re-
alization of the fact that all men are
created free and equal.
Every man and woman who ever
served this country in any war Is an
American hero. 1t is for you who
have served and for you alone. You
can have no greater honor bestowed
upon you. Yet someone has said that
our heroes are dead; that they died for
liberty, that they died for US. that
they sleep somewhere under this flag
which thew have rendered. stainlecc
beneath the shadows of the clouds,
careless alike of sunshine and of storm,
each in the wfndowless palace of
peace. In the midst of the battle, In
the roar of the conflict, they found
the serenity of death. And as the
same man likewise said, I have one
sentiment for heroes both living and
dead, tears for the living, tears for the
dead"
