In the death OF General Albert l..
Mills. which occurred here this
week, the national guard OF the coun-
try lost one OF Its most loyal and
staunchest friends. During his four
years as head OF the military bu-
reau OF the war department, Gen
eral Mills worked out the mobllI3a-
ton OF the state troops. which have
been used SO successfully during the
Mexican border situation. He con-
tended vigorously for increasing the
efficiency OF the guard and while Sc.
verely critical of its faults was in
sympathy with its cause. His last
years had been spent in reorganlE-
ing the militia and bringing about
a better understanding, a higher de-
gree OF sympathy and cooperation
between 1t and the regular army. The
task of federalizing the state troops
under the reorganization plan laid
out by Congress largely rested
on General Mills as chief of tho
militia bureau.

cent, and probably more, OF those
Progressives who we're formerly Re-
publloana, came back to their old al
legiance. It is impossible to say how
many Of tho Maine ProgresBives who
were formerly members of the Demo-
cratic parry also Joined the Republic
cans In this election, but assuredly,
There were not a few Of them. They,
like Raymond Robins and others Of
national fopute, evidently prefer
Hughes to Wilson.
1T Is TO be emphasized that the
Maine campaign was one which was
concerned strictly with the issues
which are before this country this
year in the national campaign. Per-
haps no state election was ever held
In which local issues were so COM
pletely overshRdowed by the national
issues as In Maine this year. The
result must be regarded as portend-
ing strongly bigger results in the
national election in November"

opportunity to go to the border II
the present plans Of the war de-
partment are carried out. Only one
thing may alter this policy, though
officials now think it may not. This
is the lack of funds available for
transportation. Although no account
of the expenditures incident to the
border situation has been made pub
lie reports indicate that the depart

funds, and will face a heavy deficit

up with the state department an eff

locate the missing West virginians.
BY order of the postoffice depart

|GNAT|US LINCOLN
WILL SURRENDER
But Wants the United States to
Grant Him Pledge of I'm
munity.

New York, Jan. Zl-Federal secret
service agents received information
today which convinced them that Ig-
natius p. T. Lincoln, self-confessed
German spy, and former member Of
the British house of commons, was
aided in his escape from a United
States deputy marshal last Saturday,
by Group b., powerful organiza-
ton of European political refugees.
The government agents were salts
fed that Lincoln has never left New
York City.
Wrote Department.
Lincoln sent a letter today to the
head of the local bureau of investiga-
ton of the department of justice, Of
fering to surrender it he was promis-
ed immunity. This was taken to
mean that he wanted a pledge from
the United States government that
he would not be turned over to the
British authorities. Before his es-
cape, an order was issued for his ex-
tradition as forger, but Lincoln has
always insisted that the English gov
ernment intended to shoot him as a
spy.
Made Up Of European Exiles.
Group b., the organization which
the federal agents believe arranged
Lincoln's escape, and is. now lowering
him, is a body formed in this country
in 1872 1t is said to include in its
membership several welknown Euro
pean political exiles

AUSTRIA D|SCLA|MS
ALL RESPONSIBILITY
For the Sinking Of the Pacific
and Orient Steamship
Persia.

Vienna, Jan. 21.--The government
has informed Frederick G.. Pentield,
the United States ambassador, that
no Austro Hungarian submarine was
concerned in the sinking Of the P. &
o. Line steamer, Persia.
Austria's Statement Believed.
Austrias statement that no Austri-
an submarine was concerned in the
sinking of the liner. Persia, probably
means that there will be no diplamat-
ic controversy between the Teutonic
powers and the United States over
that tragedy, in which two Americans
were lost Count Won Bernstorff, the
German ambassador, has informed
the state department that no German
submarine had reported attacking the
vessel
Cause Of Sinking a Mystery.
Officials of the state department
have made it plain that affidavits Of
survivors of the Persia failed to prove
conclusively how the ship was de-
stroyed. She went down within five
minutes after a terrific explosion for
ward, but no submarine was seen and
the only testimony indicating an at
tack was to the effect that the wake
of torpedo was seen Just before the
explosion.
Some officials thing there is ground
for the belief that an internal explo-
sion sent TIE liner to the bottom.

"SCAlD BRANDING" TRICK
tOF CATTLE RUSTLERS

For; Yates, N. D., Jan. 21.-" "Scald
branding" is the method used by
horse and cattle rustlers with such
success that stock thefts are greater
this winter than in years.
Cattle thieves cover an old brand
with damp cloth, working over this
with a hot iron.
The steam from the cloth raises a
blister and that in turn raises the
hair making the new mark appear
like an old brand. A few weeks after
wards, following the sale of the stol-
en- cattle the new brand disappears
and tracing back to the thief is i'm
possible.
