"Uov do soldiers like frontier life (?
Generally very well. but many are anxious

soldier from the West who spoke ia answer
TO the query of n Hdichet reporter. IN
fact" he continued. discharges nave been
secured bv n great number. mainly through
the efforts of the Hon. John Amber Smith.
Mr.. Smith. you will remember, was at
one time the Youngest man in Con-
gress and is an ardent friend OF the
Administration. Congress IS at last
awakening 10 ITS duty 10 the common
soldier. whereas the comfort OF the officer
alone was heretofore considered. OF late
several acts have been passed that give
the private a show. II was John Amber
smith who suggested the investigations
that resulted in the relief Of the soldier
from many hardships. Mr.. Smith told me
Yesterday that General Proctor was the
best lawyer and soldier ever at the mead OF
the War Department. He declared that
Secretary Proctor would no more let an
officer impose on n soldier than q soldier
on an officer. He further said the Secretary
weighed well every case and insisted on
