Will Sue The Town

Goldfield, Colo,, Dec. 3I-W. J..
Wills, editor of the Daily Leader
of this city, today was sent to jail
because he failed to pay fine that
was imposed on him Cor his refusal
to meet his poll tax assessment.
Sometime ago the city police
judge fined Wills for not paying
poll tax and Major King remitted
the fine. The town council then
passed a resolution compelling
Wills to pay the fine and the town
marshal was orded by the council
to arrest the newspaper man and
place him in Jail. Wills says he
viii at once bring suit against the
city for damages for illegal i'm
prisonment. The case has created
a great deal of comment.

New York, Aug. %, - The United
States auxiliary naval force, which a
week ago consisted Of a vessels in COM
mission, has been reduced TO % vessels,
and by the end 81 next week IL will have
disappeared altogether until another war
shall call IL into service During the Pc
riod OF hostiliiies with Spain this inner
line OF naval defense has hal no popular
opportunity to demonstrate It's efficiency
although the work Of naval officers
charged with keeping lookout for the
enemy has gone too FAR TO prove how
indispensable it would have been had
the Atlantic coaY; been menaced BY an
attack.
Asa result OF the experience gained
by the combination Of the auxiliary
force and the coast line defense It viii
BE- possible II foreign invasion OF this
country is hereafter contemplated, TO
provide speedily for the mobilization OF
nm effective system Of defense.
When Captain John X. Bartlett was
put in command Of the auxiliary naval
force on July o he proceeded energetic
ally to get all Of It's vessels promptly in
commission and into active service and
TO organize the force on the basis which
was distributed In districts, six on the
Atlantic coast, two on the gulf and one
ON the Pacific, and tho complete organi'
ration was perfected In single month.
Under the original plan the assistants
TO the chief In the various districts were
to be officers from the local naval mill
tias who had entered the United States
service, and the vessels In t'leh district
were to BE- manned from the naval mili'
tin district who had been mustered into
the auxiliary naval forces This plan
was fully carried out.
