Sprlngflcld. I1L, July 4. Governor Tates
has addressed a. letter to Samuel Baxter.
Sheriff of Saline County, excoriating that
official for his alleged laxity of oQkUaT duty
in permitting reported outrages upon the
negro residents of his terrltury. Tho Gov
ernor's letter Is based upon the Information
conveyed to him In the recent report of As
sistant Adjutant General Evrert, who was
sent to Eldorado and to Saline County to
Investigate the situation there.
The Governor's communication to Sheriff
Baxter Is. in part, as follows!
I deem It or duty, upon tie ire-MTtn of That
I bare mysalf learned during tfci past two Tfkj
about the disorj?rly o;curTen?ei in your ecus
ty. to censure you iwrerely, Hoping thereby to
awaken you to a penso of rour duty and to re
pair. &a far as possible, any nana done.
Tou deserve censure. In the fir- place, for
failure to comply with your duty to respond
irhea called upon, as an execute ufacer of the
law. to aid and Inform the chief execudre; but
you axe much mora deferring cf ccnnor for tbs
plain breach of duty to Inhibitions uf your
county.
Ileport of Colonel E-rrert.
On the day following my letecram to ycu Col
onel Tneoaore Ewert. Atil-tint Adjuauit Gen
eral, acting under orders Hu"J by Adjutant
Qeaaral James E. Smith, sursuant to my di
rection, rlalted your county, and urea hU le
tunx ha made a written report.
The report cocdaslvely snows that you adrlsed
taw-abldlcg residents of your county to leave the
county after the school building which they were

you would afford them ample proieetloa against

guard of deputies for that purpo. It would
term that after remaining at or In the neighbor
hood of the school bulldtne for two nights, you
abandoned all pretense of protection and advir-d
the persona resident therein to depart, which
ther did.
It Is sot roar duty as Sheriff to advise aesalled
persons within your county to take trelr depar
ture and abandon their home, school and prop
erty. But. on the other hand. It Is your plain
and paramount duty to see that they are not ter
rorised cr run out of your countv and to ue
every able-bodied man. If need b. to enable
them to remain in the full enjoyment of their

to appeal to the Etats authorities for zuraclent

to suppose that you would have acted ok you

the conclusion Is Irresistible that because It was

SOLDIER BOYS ENJOY
LIFE IN CAMP WELLS
Members of First Regiment Pitch
Their Tents on the Grassy
Slopes of Montesano Park.
SHAM BATTLE IS PLANNED.
Delegation of St. Lonis Citizens
Will Visit Encampment Xext
Wednesday Programme
for the Week.
Montnno Park. Mo.. July 4. The soldier
boys of St- IuK members of tho First
Regiment. National Guard of Missouri, are
"in the Held." Their annual outing at
Camp Wells named in honor of the May
orhas begun.
In twenty minutes a white city of shining
new canvas tents had arisen on a hillside
which overlooks the broad Mississippi. It
is a slto well shaded by protecting grme
spring wator is at hand, and the officers
believe that a week's encampment Is In
prospect which will bo satisfactory from
a military standpoint and yet offer the
greatest possible enjoyment.
Twenty minutes was the time required for
driving the tent pegs and pitching tents
certainly not up to the Ihree-mlnute reg
ular army record mark. But this Is lho
first "campaign" for many of the St. Louis
lads.
Whatever their various accomplishments
and their capacity at other things, this is
their first experience at driving tent pegs
and adjusting guy ropea
j.r.e pegs proved not easy to drive. Toting
St.
i-xui3. "off"' for a vacation, made
vigorous swipes" at the peg with the blunt
end of an ax missed every time. Then
he tried the flat side of the ax. nnd split
the peg. A few more pegs and a few more
tries, and he conquered. tboJKh often axes
were discarded and makeshifts substituted,
such as tent poles, clubs or ball bats.
Probably veterans would have driven the
pegs better, but they would not have worked
as hard, for the young St. Louis mUltary
men seemed poMesswd with a demomac en
ergy, asd plugged away for three solid
hours in a tlazljg hot sun until ever detail
of the camp was made ship shape.
Hon- the Camp Was, Laid Ont.
Then because of th rielnv nf th mtn
I chests and the commissary stores, a, meal
was out of the question until S p. m. At
this time, however, a "mess" was served,
which Included frefh beef, potatoes, corn,
tomatoes, bread and coffee, and which fully
satisfied tho hungtr of thu 50 dectdedly
hungry men who sat down to it.
By evening the camp spirit entirely pre
vailed. Beutrita paced the outskirts of the
camp, and every point within It had been
christened. An avenue between tents was
named E street, another P, another A. ac
cording to the various company letters.
Then there was the open "parade ground"
and the otacsrs" tents, dubbed "headquar
ters." The BtroUer who entered camp territory.
wnemer ne was uniformed or not, was sa
luted with a "Who goes there?" in ap
proved regulation style, and such a stroller
was required to give a satisfactory and
plausible account of himself. Thon. again,
such of the men as had "been to the
war." who had served in Cuba or the Phll-
lpplnes.manased to gather In a group round
tne oar near Dy wmen is tne "canteen, ana
relate their harrowing experiences. They
were the men of the nour.
On tho first night out there was some
confusion In getting directions straight
and set era! troopsrs had difficulty In reach
ing S street or U, or whichever "boule
vard" was his. But such minor troubles
did not mar tho occasion, and such troopers
generally found their way "home."
The regiment left St. Louis at 10 a. m.
on the city of Providence. It marched
from the Armory, Colonel A. C. Sinclair.
Regimental Adjutant Laurence BosweU, the
other staff officers and band leading. Tho
boat was crowded on the trip down with
Fourth of July excursionists and friends
of the militiamen. Montesano was
reached at U:U. Mounted offloers at tte
head, the march was made to the camp
ground, 150 yards from the landing.
CAPTAIN BOS1VELL
CSFURLS OLD CLOUT.
The first ceremony was the unfolding of
a regulation post United States flag. Colonel
Sinclair formed the regiment In line of
masses. Captain Laurence Boswell. assist
ed by Ordnance Sergeant Shaw, "broke the
colors." The regiment presented arms and
me at lamp v. ens naa Degun.
Orders were given for laying out the
camp, and pitching tents. The line officers
busily Issued commands, and the "high pri
vates" hurried to obey. The canvas cltr
grew rapidly. Details of men carried
In the heavy mess chests. Others secure-1
the straw, which must do for pallet. Oth
ers went hither and thither on scores of
necessary errands, such as carrying water
and wood, and setting up tables for th
messi
At 2 o'clock the "order of the day," which
will be in force during the ten days of the
encampment, was Issued. The first an
nouncement In this told the name chosen
for the camp. "This camp Is to be callel
'Camp Wells.' in honor of the Mayor of

Pittsburg. July 4. President Roosevelt, in
a speech hero to-day, declared that the es

At least half a million persons witnessed

the truest of the naUon's sons, and with
Sumter's guns awakened our people and
America until the incarnate genius of
peace sprang to her feet with sword and
with shield, a helmeted queen among na
tions. When the thurder of the guns called
the nation's children they sprang forwnrd
to do the mighty deeds which. If left un
done, would have meant that the words to
which we have listened to-lay would have
rung as meaningless platitudes.
"Those were the two great epochs in the
nation's history, the epoch of the found
ing of the Union and the epoch of its
preservaUon; the epochs of Washington
and the epoch of Abraham Lincoln. (Loud
applause and cheers.)
Those two generations had the greatest
tasks to do, but each generation has Its
tarks and woe to the generaUon which
regards the deeds of the mighty men of
the past as an excuse for this falling to do
in Its turn tho work that It finds ready to
hand.
The great deeds of thoie who have gone
before us must ever serve not as a reason
for InacUon on our part, but as the keen
est of spurs to drive U3 forward on the
path of national greatness and Justice.
Great Tasks for Present Day.
"We have had our tasks to do In the
last four years, or rather we have had. as
every generation must have, many tasks
to do. tasks affecting us abroad and one
of those tasks being done as it has been,
has signaled our entry into a larger world.
"And It Is most appropriate that on this
Fourth of July, this anniversary of the
birth of the nation, it should be our good
fortune to have promulgated the declara
tion c- tahllshlng peace In the Philippines
and the acknowledgment to the army of the
praise so richly due our fellow Americans
who wear the uniform of the United State,
for all that they have done In the troplo
islands during the past four years. (Ap
plat.se and cheers).
"We said Cuba should become a free Re
public, and wo have kept our word. (Loud
applause.)
To have turned Cuba over to the hands
of Us own people Immediately after the
withdrawal of the Spanish flag would have
meant ruin and chaos. We established a
government In the Islands; we established
peace and order; wo began to provide for
the payment of the Cuban troops, who had
fought against the misrule of their oppres
sors; we Instituted a public school system,
mod-Jed upon that which has been to pa
tent a factor in our own national progress.
(Applause.) We cleaned the clUes In Cuba
for the flrst Ume In their hlitory. (Ap
plause.) "We changed them from being the
most unhealthy to being among the health

duced, a system of orderly Justice to suc

weak or strong, could appeal to courts and
know- that he would receive his rights.

"And then, when in the fullness of tlmo
we felt they could walk alone, we turned
over the government to them, and now the"
beauUful Queen of the Antilles has start

the nations of the earth. (Applause.)
"But there is one thlng-our policy

rush of our industrial development which
has brought in Its train so much that is
good, and also of necessity brought some
what Its evil, the very intensity of the
progress that has been made, has meant
that new and Infinitely dlthcult problems
have arisen which we must strive to solvo
as best we may.
"Under our form of Government, with its
great decentralization of power, some of
those problems must be solved through the
work of private individuals, working by
themselves.; others by the association into
organized bodies of groups of private clU
sens, and others yet through the various

Concentration of Corporate "Wealth.
"Especially great, especially difficult, are
the problems caused by the growth and
concentration of great Individual, and.
above nil. great corporate fortunes. It li
immensely for the Interests of the country
that there should be such individual and
corporate wealth as long as It Is used
right, and when not used right then It be
comes a serlou-) menace and danger. (Ap
jjlause.) The Instruments and methods
with whlf'h we are to meet thee new prob
lems must In many cases themselves be
new. but the purpose lying behind the use
of these methods of those Instruments
must. If we aro to succeed. tx now, as In
the past, simply In accord with the im
mutable laws of order, of Justice and of
right,
"We may need, nnd. In my belief, win
need, new legislation conceived in no radi
cal or revolutionary spirit, but In a spirit
of common sense, common honesty and a
resolute desire to face fact as they are.
(Applause.) We will need. then, new legis
lation, but. while laws are Important. It
is- Infinitely more important that they
should be administered In accordance with
the principles that have marked honest
administration from the beginning of re
cordad history. (Applause.)
"What Is Mennt by Jnatlre.
"In the last analysis the mon Important
department of civilized government is the
Department of Justice. Think what It
means. The Department of Justice. Jus-
i tlce that means that each man. rich or
I poor, strong or weak, shall have his rights
J nnd shall not be allowed to do wrong to
a I hu fellows. (Applause.) Ami on. here, or
this city, have a right to fel proud of
your representative In the Cabinet, the
man under whom we can guarantee that
the Department of Justice will be such In
fact as well as In name. (Loud and con
tinued applause and cheers. Cries of
"Knoxr "Knox.")
"When It comes to practice, the ounce
of performance outweighs the ton of prom
Lie. (Applause.) And under Mr. Knox
there has been very much more than an
ounce of performance. (Applause).
"Oh. m fellow-countrymen, as we face
these infinitely difficult problems let us
eer keep In mind that though we need
the hltrhest Qualities1 of the Intellect In
order to work out practical schemes for
their solution, yet we need a thousand
times more, what counts for many. many,
many times as much as intellect we need
character. (Cries of "That Is It." and ap
plause.)
"Character, that compound of honesty
and courage and common sense, will avail
us more In the long run than any brilliancy
on the stump or any advising legislative
means and methods. The brilliancy Is
good. We need the Intellect; we need the
best Intellect we can get: we need the best
intelligence, but we need mcrr still-char-ecter.
We need common sense, common
honesty and resolute courage. (Applauie.)
"We need what Mr. Knox has shown
the character that wlU refuse to be hur
ried Into any unwise or precipitate move
ment by any clamor, whether historical or
demagegfe. and. on the other hand, the
character that will refuse to be frightened
out of the movement which he thinks it
right to undertake, by any pressure, sUU
less by any threat, express or Implied.
(Cries of "Hear," and "Hear." and ap
plause.) Solution Must Be Gradual.
"Gentlemen, we have got problems; we
can only solve them by degrees. We can
only solve them by doing well each particu
lar bit of work as it comes up for solution.
Much caD be done along the lines of u-pet-vislon
nnd regulation of the great n
duitrial combinations which have becomi
so markod a feature In our civilization, but
If we recklessly try without proper thought,
without proper caution, to do too much, we
shall do nothing, or else wo shall work a
ruin that will be felt most acutely among
thoe of our citizens who are most h-ilpless.
"It Is no easy task to deal with great .r.
dustrlal tendencies To deal with thru in a
spirit of presumptuous and rash folly, and
above all. to deal with them In a rplrit of
envv and hatred and malice, would be ta
Invite disaster, a disaster which would be
so widespread thit this country would rock
to It foundations. The Mississippi some
times causes immense damage by flood. If
you cannol dam It and stop the Hoods you
can regulate them nnd control them by
lfvees. You can regulate and control tho
current; you can eliminate Its destructive
features, but you can do it only by study
ing what a current is and what your own
powers are. (Applause.)
"It Is Just exactly to In dealing with the
great tendencies of our Industrial civiliza
tion. We cannot turn back the wheels of
progress If we could It would mean the
absolute destruction of Just such Industrial
countries as this. We will either do noth
ing or m will do damage If we strive ig
norantly to achieve the Impossible.
"But that fact docs not excuse u- for
failure to strive to. do what It po""itIe.
Srecta'l legislation Is nefded. ne of that
legislation must come through municipali
ties, some through State.-, some through
the national Government, but above anil
beyond all legislation we need honest and
fearless administration of the law an they
are on the statute books. (Applause.) Hon
est and fearless administration of those
laws In the Interest, neither cf the rich
man as such, nor of the poor man a su."b.
but In the Interest of exact and eaual Jus
tice to all alike, and such administration
you will surely have while Mr. Knox re
mains as Attorney General In the Cabinet
at Washington." (Applause.)

with a salute of twenty-one guns and w-as
