CAUSES OF DEsERTION.

"What were the cause which led to this
falling OFF ? Well, there were two reasons
for it. In the first place the army organiLa-
ton is extremely faulty, and again there
has a great deal of trouble arisen from the
interference of petty politicians in the
affairs of the soldiers, Chile you see, is the
only country in the world that uniteS a
military service. All mem berS of the regu-
lar army receive liberal pay after the sys-
TEN prevalent in the United States. Once
enlisted, however, the soldier Is not held so
strictly to the duties OF the service as in
this country, BY the personal influence Of
friends, by petty bribery and in a hundred
other ways he may secure his release With
out mourning arrest for desertion.
AT the head of the Chilean military Or
ganZation stands a Minister Of War.
Among the foreign residents Of Chile this
Minister is known as the most 'nomadic Of
ticiaP in the Cabinet It is by no means I'M
five or six months after its organization. In
many instances ministers have been known
to resign within n month after having been
appointed to office. One of the most fruit
full causes for this decentralization OF the
regular service is to be found in this tickle
ness OF the head administrator combined
with the division of responsibility between
him and the two spector-GeneralS. The
drill maneuver is conducted on the most an
tiquated lines. The cavalry, for instance,
follows the Spanish regulations OF 1907. On
the other hand the weapons of the troops
are modern. The artillery is supplied with
Krupp guns of the latest pattern, while
Mannlicher rifles of improved make are used
by the infantry. The arsenals and repair
shops are under the supervision of German
officers

BALMAcEDA's POSITION

who, before we left Valparaiso, was using
every effort 10 increas4 it by I ressing men
into the service from all walks of life.
"OI the navy do not know so much, but
it is fairly good for a third rate power, and
the best vessels are the Blancu, Intendente,
Huascar and Villarino, all of which were in
the harbor at Valparaiso when we left.
g The inhabitants were expecting a bonn
ba' dment at any moment and the condition
of the city was chaotic. Things were in
constant uproar and all business, of course,
was practically suspended. No one dared
express an opinion, and men who were Sus-
pected of sympathy with the insurgents were
thrown into jail by hundreds without being
given an examination. Martial law pre-
vailed everywhere and the newspapers were
kept under strict watch. Every line was
inspected by the authorities, and not word
was allowed to go into print that was

when we left things we're in such an
unsettled condition that it was impossible
to foresee the end of the difficulty. No one
seemed to have a clear conception of what
the result might be, and both sides seemed
confident OF victory. The principal fight
ing has all occurred since we left, and ours
was probably the last sailing vessel to leave

CHILEAN MILITIA.

f1he Chilean militia has a nominal
strength of 1862 privateS and PIG officers
Last year, however, but 10j5 officers and
27000 men could be found for duty. All the
rest had Disappeared as they call it when
a man deserts in Chile. The great weakness
of the recruiting service lies IN the fact that
volunteer firemen are exempt from military
duty, and the consequence is that Chile has
the largest and most willing force OF yOlun
teer firemen in the world.
lone thing must not be overlooked in dis
cussing the army of Chile. and that is de-
spite the glaring deficiencies of organization,
and the wide gaps caused by assertions, it
is vastly superior in many ways to those of
her neighbors. The Chilean soldier
has two inherent qualities which
place him above all other South Americans,
and many Europeans for that matter, on
the battlefield He has wonderful endur-
ance and few needs. With little water
and a few bits of bread he is able to
preserve his strength throughout forced
marches of which the European soldier
scarcely DRAINS. During the last war with
Peru he showed this quality of endurance
to a remarkable degree. Considerable bodies
OF Chilean infantry marched frequently
thirty miles day. Chilean cavalry often
covered, marching dav and night, sixty miles
at stretch. The explanation Of this eX-
ceptiOnal physical energy of the cavalry is
to be found in the fact that every Chilean
is at home on horseback, and that
the horses have staying powers when
on the gallon. the only gait the cavalry
knows, which European horses never attain
to. The common conclusion, however, that
the Chileans are weak on their feet because
strong on horseback is entirely false. Not
only is the average Chilean horseman an
exceptionally perSevering pedestrian, but
often the fastest FOOT courier in the world.
The regular military couriers are frequently
able 10 cover between fifty and sixty miles
day. ard Chilean private of only slightly
ordinary running ability has been known,
am told, to make, often under load of forty
pounds forty or fifty miles a day.

a telegram WAS received at Black
foot Tuesday afternoon announcing
the death of Miss Laura Yearian at
Idaho Falls. Miss Yearian was the
step-daughter of Mr. Z. r. Hawley Of
Lost River We have no particulars
OF her death, but the announcement
brought pangs of grief TO many hearts
in Blackfoot where she had lived and
WAS much loved.
DR.. Dodge, of Custer county, has
decided TO locaIe with us, and offers
his professional services to the citi-
zens of Blackfoot and surrounding
country. The DIR. is well known to
many OF our Bingham county people.
He also intends opening drug store
as soon as his stock of drugs can be
shipped here which will be within the
next 80 or 40 days. In the mean
time be will fill his own prescriptions
from the stock he has on hand. Note
his card in THE News to-day.
Senator Shoup tells the newspaper
men OF Chicago that there is an un-
derstanding between Blame and Har-
rison regarding the nomination in
1892, and that they will abide the
wishes OF the people in the matter.
He also says that Senator Palmer is
the coming man on the democratic
ticket. The Senator thinks Cleveland
and Hill are not in it. The Senator
may understand the language of the
Oracle at Delphi, but we believe il
the Oracle talks that way the Oracle
is wrong.

chers and stOcknen made public, is
that in regard to estray animals. A
rancher adyertises an estray; pretty
soon he is called upon by a sharper
who has lost one answering the de-
scription. The sharper examines the
animal critically but finally decides
that it is not his He leaves, returns
to his pal and gives a minute descip-
tion of the animal advertised. In q
day or two the pal goes 10 the ran
cher and describes the animal per
fectly. The rancher shows it and is
satisfied in his own mind as to the
ownership. The pal takes the animal
and disposes of it and later ON the
rightful owner comes along and de.
mands his property; but finds it and
the thief gone, and no one knows
whittier.

Only 64 Voters Who Do NCt Want to
 Come Into the Union,

The vote polled yesterday was larger than had been anticipated. The question of getting the vote out was the great problem to be solved. The friends of statehood knew that the full strength of the opposition would be brought out. They had quietly worked to secure every man who would vote against it, and 64 repre- scented the full force Of the blow they could have struck, and they struck it, Those in favor of statehood simply worked to bring out as full vote as possible without asking questions regarding the way man would vote Carriages were provided to bring the miners in from the more distant mines. Supt. Staunton of the T. NJ. X M. Co. gave the men employed un- der his management an hour of in which to attend to this obligation. A like privilege was granted the men st the Comet by Messrs. Leach and Gage It IS probable that one-half the entire vote was brought out
 It did not take long to count the ballots, and when the result was an nounced there was & feeling of relief that the battle was over and that Tombstone had proved true to her self and had not placed herself in q false light before the people of the territory.
 The vote showed ratio of 1 to in favor Of statehood. It was a grand, glorious and complete vindication of the soandness of the arguments which had been brought forward in behalf of long stride toward the prosperous future that is in store for us.

NJ. V. Downing.

Major Downing who was killed on SunGay morning was one of the pion- eers of this county He came here in the seventies and located in the Chir- icahua mountains long before a rail road entered the Territory. He hauled his sawmill in overland and was the first to produce lumber from the for est of southern Arizona, In '79 the writer was located near hIs home. Al that time the country was swarming with prospectors and his habitation was never visited in vain for assistance food or a kind word. His lumber was at the disposal of all. Ii you had money it was all right and if not it was "well pay me when you can" He will be kindly remembered by those whose search for wealth led them his way, and they will heaye a sigh to think that one who braved the hard ship Of 15 years in blazing the trees for the pathway of others of us, should have met his death by such foul means. But his life was not failure.

A Voice From Frisco

Experience thus far has proven, to the mining men on this coast that English and French investors are good men to have in any mining camp. They do their work thorough ly. put up first-class plants and de- velop their properties in the best manner. They do not expect to work a mine out in year or so and do not work for what is in sight alone. De- velopment work is carried on system atically and bills are promptly paid. The older states where such invest ments have been made have made more money out of these foreign cap italists than the capitalists have made out of the state in the long run, and it was great mistake to have incorpor- ated in the Alien Act The clause which prohibits investments of foreign capi- taI in mines in the terTitories.-Min- ing and Scientific Press.

BE WATCHFUL.
Apache Troops From Prescott
 Coming This Way.

There is a grave suspicion that the shooting of Downing and Daniels may have been committed by deserters from the company of Apache soldiers now on the way to Ft. Huachuca They arrived at Phenix last Sunday and are escorted by small guard of soldiers. There are 95 Indians in the lot, all armed to the teeth with gov erument rifles and ammunition. One third of the band is composed of Chir- icahua Apaches whose hands have been Teddened with the blood of many Of our people, They know every nook and corner of this county, and it will be strange oversight on their part if they do not break away and make for their old hunting grounds at the first opportunity. These Apaches were so unruiy that they could not be kept at Whipple.
 The Herald says that the detach- ment expects to reach Ft. Huachucs about New Year, going by way of San Carlos and trsversing some 300 miles en route.

OOWNING'S MURDER
The Second ne in the Past Week at the Same
 Place.

The murder of Major Downing will cause many friend to drop a tear over the thought of seeing him no more. Who the demon is who took the life, is probably the same one who killed Daniels. few days before, an account of which appeared in the Stockman of Saturday, and would go to show that upon tho Majors return to the mill with Judge Baker, the second murder was committed. The Stockmsn says:
 Major W. NJ. Downing came in from the Chiricshuas Thursday even. ing and reported the mysterious mur- der of B. II. Daniels, young man who for year past was in his employ putting in logs at his mill. The body was found in the timber with bullet hole through his body. Robbery was not the object of the murder, as his pockets containing a watch and other yaluables were not rihed, nor was the body interiered with to indicate the work of the deadly Apache.
 Deceased was Canadian by birth and so far as known had not an enemy in the world, but to the con- trary was well-liked by all in the camp Mir. Downing returned yesterday morning accompanied by Judge Baker who will hold an inquest over the body. No particulars at this time can be had other than the above.
