Numerous complaints have been
made recently concerning petty thiev-

generation of Boomers Ferry in their
efforts to secure spending money
1t is claimed that young boys have
been securing the town in search
of copper, brass, etc, and now that
the odds and ends are running short
have started the dismantling of ma
chinery and in a number of cases
have taken costly parts and sold
them for junk. A close watch of
the youngsters is being made and
unless the practice is stopped some
of the boys will likely get into Sc
rious trouble.

AHEAD WITH WORK

The present officers of the Nation
al Guard OF New Mexico will not be
placed on the unassigned list las pro-
posed by Governor Lindsey and rec
commended by General Pershing, as
the war department has refused per-
mission for such action.
A telegram announcing its refusal
was received from the var depart
ment by Governor Lindsey late yes
terday evening. The department holds
that as all guard officers took the fed
eral oath while at the border they
are now in federal service.
The telegram also announced that
the recruiting of the New Mexico
guard would be in charge of General
Pershing. No word in reference to
the matter has been received from
General Pershing today, but recruiting
is now in progress by the company
commanders, who are stationed at
Santa Fe, Albuquerque, Las Cruces,
Deming, Silver City, Portales, Ar
tesla, Roswell and Carlsbad. Until
such time as other instructions are
received, the commanders will pro-
coed to recruit by the volunteer sys.
tenn. An effort will be made to se-
unmarried men, and any young
man IS years of age or yer will be
enlisted without requiring the per-
mission of his parents.
The plan to place all the present
guard officers on the unassigned list
resulted from reports Of friction be-
tween some of the officers, and their
men during the stay Of the guard at
the border. 1t was hoped in this
way to eliminate the officers who had
incurred the enmity of the guardsmen.

Washington, April 25.-Opposition
to selective draft reached its climax
in the house today when speaker
Clark took the floor to champion the
volunteer army amendment. Deplor.
ing that he could not stand by the
president whom he un~reservedly de
clared wrong on the question, the
speaker pleaded that young men be
given an opportunity to offer their
service voluntarily.
II protest" he shouted, against hav-
ing the slur of being a conscript be-
ing placed upon the men of Missouri.
So far as Missourians are concerned
there is precious little difference be-
tween a conscript and a convict"
The speaker made a defense of con-
gressmen who have stood by the vol
unteer plan declaring that the volun-
teers have done most Of the nations
fighting.
Advocates of selective CONSUMPTION
without the volunteer amendment
claim a majority sixty or seventy in
the house.
The house and senate resumed de-
bate to day on the wal army bill.
House leaders hoped to reach a vote
by Friday but this appeared by no
means certain since more than sixty
members still were to be heard. In
the senate a similar situation existed.
Members IN the floor and visitors
in the gallery broke into cheers at,
the outset debate an the army bill in
the house today when Representative
Huddleston of Alabama, who opposes
the selective draft, read a list of
names of men who said favored it
Among them were Henry P. Davidson,
Frank Vanderlip, Frank A. Munsey,
Theo. N. Vail, Cornelius Vanderbilt,
Elihu Root, and ]. P. Morgan. Hud-
dleston also declared that most of the
pleas for war and CONSUMPTION came
from members Of such organizations
as the Harvard, Yale and Union
League clubs and not from the work
ing people of the country.
Everybody who is familiar with in
dustrial oppression and reaction in its
most vicious FORM" he said, twill re,

their assistants are the men who rule
the nation. They rule it through their

DISASTROUS FIRE
AT MADRID DOES
$4,000 DAMAGE

cERRILLos, N. M, April 23.-
Early yesterday morning a de-
s~tructive fire started at the Albu-
querque-Cerrillos mines at Madrid,
near here. The hoist house and
all machinery at mine No. 4 were
burned. The cause Of the fire 10
unknown, but Il is believed to
have been Of lncendiary origin.
Only three men we're working in
the shaft and they escaped. The
power house was shut down for
repairs, and this disposes Of any
theory that the fire was caused by
poor wiring. The estimated dam
age is $4,000, but this may not
cover the loss, as the fire was
making it's way down Into the
shaft late yesterday. The COM
pany was using dynamite to blow
the shaft up to prevent the further
spread Of the fire. "
This Is the second serious fire
