FOR RICH MEN ONLY"

Bisbee and the Warren District has among it's people
 number of who would be aspirants for the officers reserve corps of the United army if the proper conditions obtained Many of these without any other of support than the salary they may be ceivng from their employers Consequently the action of the adjuant general in deciding that aspirans for the officers should not receive payment for their services while training has dampened enthus- iasm of many. This is not due lack of patriotism nor to sordid interest in becoming officers Many Of the local have dependents and have the of taking care of them Some method of payment by the government be devised whereby this cause complaint be eliminated.
 The New York Times, under the heading at the head of this editorial printed editorial which very much the point It is be hoped war deparement congress may the light editorial in ques- ton follows:
 "The Adjutant Generals announcement -that the re- officers and candidates for officers commissions who summoned to enter the training camps must their country without pay most astonishing it is discouraging Money the things not lacking in our preparations The statement that no pro vision has been made to pay the officers while they training in therefore amazing was surely the purpose either Congress the Admnistra- on to enforce military service any without pay.
Bisbee daily review., 1917-04-27

If steps not immediately taken to provide for the payment of these officers 10000 are expected to be ready for assignment to duty by the middle July only who rich enough support themselves and those who dependent them out of their private will be able to report the training camps Thus the first assignment of officers posts will be to a class of who not compelled work their living way perpetuate idea of caste in the army ment, could not be imagined.
 Tt is difficult to on this amazing statement of the Adjutant General with patience It that it be another example of the traditional bungling the Washington bureaus. Billions have been readily voted for the payment of expenses. The who to the country must be paid There is not to select officers from among who afford to give all their three months for not dollar of pay Yet these asked to sign paper waivng payment for their service There many such men who willing accept officers commissions if they found competent receive them. they ious become part of military arstocracy They all advocates universal service That is the principle fer which the President stands What becomes of the principle when the ofcerships be limited rich men?

VOLUNTEERS AT THE MARINE.

The battle of -he Marne proved conc!usvey the in- efficiency of the volunteer system in modern war.
 At the outbreak of war England sent to France it's volunteer army. which, with the possible exception of the armies surrendered Sedan in the Franco Prussan war the best equipped and best trained volunteer army that entered It numbered three army corps Fighting beside against conscrpt troops it's efforts harmful to it's ally than to it's enemy. When Gen. Jore ordered his great strategic retreat English army could keep in touch with the French army and isolated suffered and bloody reyerses.
 When Jore turned like lion his enemy he ordered the British army to take the left visible battle line to oppose Von Kluck, while Galleni rushed forth from Paris the German right flank. The British army could advance fast the French armies While tie French conscripts nailed their oppor the ground and held them helpless to the frightened flank the British volunteers still poddng wearily from the rear
 Free from enemies in front Von Kluck able to his army against Gaieni and throw back the flank movement. This caused Gen. Jofre's magnificent plan to miscarry. and it only through brilliant of Gen. Foch with endorsements of hastily armed civilians previously trained through the system of uni versal service that victory was achieved
 The almost fatal failure of the British army through fault its generals lack of bravery in the men, but due the volunteer system whereby men of middle age marched in the ranks with men in the prime of youth. The French armies and the German armies were composed only the prime of youth Gen Joffre moved the French armies with the speed hardly young The older British soldiers could keep this pace younger British soldiers help back with them.
 In our volunteer armies in regular army, and in our national guard have the fatal fault. We have old marching at the side of young men, be- cause accept them in order get the numbers need
 The young win be held back the speed of the old men, Our troops will not be able to maneuver fast as troops of the enemy.

WAR SUMMARY

Apparently the sanguinary struggle that has been going on in the region of Arras has come to rest for the moment. Thursday saw no infantry angag gements anywhere along the front. London reports nothing except artillery activity at various points. while Berlin merely asserts that there is nothing of importance to report.
 The cnly thing savoring Of a clash between the infantry wings of the belligerent enemies occurred south east of Ypres, where the Germans early Thursday failed in an attempt to raid a British crater post
 Likewise on that part of the line held by the French there has been a similar let up in the fighting except by the big guns. In the AvOcOurt wood. in the Verdun region. the Ger mans attempted to wrest positions from the British but were repelled.
 On the eastern part of the AustrO- Italian theatre the Austrians are keep ing up their vigorous bombardment of Italian positions and here and there have made infantry sOrties.
 The British troops in the Lake DO- rian region of Macedonia have con- centrated the positions they captured from the Bulgarians Wednesday pre- viously having put down four counter attacks in which sanguiuary losses were suffered by the enemy. Artil- lery duels Of violence continue along the entire Macedonian front.

MUNITION SOLDIERS.

Munition workers today are soldiers in real sense as those who the trenches Makers of cartridges shells perform vital service those who fire them. And in the humdrum performance of their duty they may undergo as great peril and face death as brayely.
 Explosions in several of munition plants lately have emphasized the peril of the work. At best pow shell factory is place for coward When to danger is added the of incendary plosions by traitors brave can not be blamed shrinking. If death must be faced, it easier face open foe.
 The and girls who killed or wounded in service of their country surely trooper who fell Mexico of any soldier who may fall in France. The that women voluntarily go into this perous cupation numbers proves their natural and disposes once all of the old sex-crcism that women can't defend their country" Women will ing and capable workers and therefore good soldiers They should be recognized as such.

WHEN THERE'S AN IRISH KAISER

When the war is over. laddies, just take a tip from me. There1l be no German submarines a diving through the sea. For in Fatherland is Kaiser Bill. the guy we're going to lick, We will have a brand new Kaiser, and the same will be a Mick. We'll change the song, Der Wach am Rhein" into an Irish reel. And make the Dutchman dance it, if So inclined we feel For the police force in Berlin will be Micks from the County Clare, When we put an Irish Kaiser in the palace over there. Shure, in every German parkway you will find a sweet colleen. And the fields of waving sauerkraut we'll plant a shamrock green; No liverwurst or sausage when tie Dutchman drinks his suds, But he'll get corned beef and cabbage and good old Irish spuds. The heathen's guns and gas bombs, we'll throw them all away, And make them use shillalahs, or bricks of Irish clay; They'll wear no Iron Crosses, shure, 'tis shamrOcks they will wear. When we put an Irish Kaiser in the palace over there.

PARIS, April 26.-The arrival of the French mission in the United States is the occasion for many expressions of appreciation Of the French for the cordiality of its reception and its sig nificance and cementins the relations between the two republics
 La Liberte says it recalls the great manifestation in the United states when Lafayette returned 10 that coun- try forty years after he had shared in the victory of Yorktown.
 As a sequel to the present mission, a popular movement now is taking form for the removal of the ashes of Lafayette from the Picpus cemetery and to deposit them in the lnvalides alongside those of Napoleon.
