and his men have done with war. For my
part, I think it is fine thing for the
regiment to have them meet so honorable
a death, revenge for which is determined
upon by their eomrades-and really it is
only that they have got little sooner
what each of us always expects. I was
curious about my own feelings in the
matter. l did not relish getting back, I
did not like the shell fire, but found that
the danger and responsibilities quickened
my instincts and decisions, so that i was
able TO step in and do a lot of things
which in reality had no authority to do.
But you would be surprised ut the fear
OF the dark that men have, and you
would wonder how the mere fact that
man is an officer and is standing with
them has a guiding effect upon the en-
listed man. These men did not know me.

all they needed was some one to talk to

You know we were still under COM

thing, but the French commander, the bril-
gade commander and the division COM

done-that 1 was not only the Major Of
the battalion, but an officer Of the regi-
ment, and because of my rank more was
expected of me.
Well, they insisted, and then told them
that under no circumstances would / take
it unless those non-commissioned officers
of my battalion and the two Lieutenants
who had been working under my diree-
tion we're also taken care Of And this
they said they would do. Officers from
General Headquarters have been down

Major Donovan's Diary
Record of High Heroism

started up through this dari-:, very lonely,
muddy trail back to the post of command.
We had not gone very far when
through the woods came the klaxon horn
sounding, which was the gas alarm sig
nal. We all put on our gas masks and
grabbing one another's arms, hands or
sticks, resumed the march. After going
about quarter OF mile l lifted my
mask to test the gas, and feeling that the
air was clear, took it off. l made the rest
of them keep theirs on for a few minutes
until l made certain.
We then all took them off, and when we
got about half way another gas alarm
sounded-by that time these poor micks
with me were scared to death. They got
ploughing around, making so2mueh noise l
thought we would have had the whole
German artillery firing on US. Went back
10 one man who was particularly obnox-
ious and handed him good punch in the
jaw.
That quieted all Of them. Then l put
one Lieutenant in front, one ih the middle
and l took up the rear and marched them
back. gave few directions to the COM
pany commander, and went back to report
TO the battalion commander. Had him
make out a report to the Colonel, and l
thought everything was settled for the
night, so sat down and started my letter
to YOU.

was brought home to me that nothing
moro could be done and that this must be
their tomb. l did not want to 60 then,
so 1 sent up message to bring up the
engineers. l almost wished that the rest
Of the covering would fall and bury me.
l went up above, and those three sergeants
of my battalion who had been left back
we're doing wonderful work.
Got hold Of one of them and made him
at once get busy and start opening
through a trench that had been covered;
went around again, saw those youngsters
standing at their posts and told them
what to do and quoted them down, and
then, having sent away all the ieutenants
and sergeants, found myself alone. 1t
was then o'clock in the morning, and as
I stumbled across the broken trenches ran

had no rifle, no revolver, nothing but
fancy cane, so 1 had to have some one
with me. 1 caught hold Of ono husky
youngster who had rifle, and he under
took to guide me out. He was crouehing
and crawling along there so slowly that
l pressed my cane against his breeehcs
and kept him moving.
When we got to the trail leading to the
woods he was in despair, and did not like
the idea Of starting out, so had to get
ahead of him and lead him. Luckily my
bump of direction held good, and went
into our own line instead Of the Germans.
1 got back to the Majors post and
made report and told him I was going
10 report the facts to the Colonel to see if
something could not be done.

man with rifle, and together we hiked
the four miles and got the report to the
Colonel. Then got the engineers on the
track and started back--they started in to
work. .-r.,
The one consolation of it all was that
the engineers found that the dugout had
been so thoroughly destroyed that nothing
could have been done to hare saved those
men, so to-day in a little denuded prom

marked the interruption, when this young
pioneer officer whom ! sent out and who
had told ME he could get every one out of
the dugout, although he knew there were
some dead there, came back and said the
vibration from the other bombar1ment
had knocked down more earth, and lie
lad been obliged TO get the men out.
He was shaken and frightened, and no
one seemed TO know what to do, so
jumped up and said l was damned if l
was going to see those men stay there
without chance, so / started out and
picked up two of the Lieutenants who had
been with me before and whom I myself
had trained, so knew could depend on
them, and we went back.
On the way made the company CON-
mandcr come out of his dugout and look
out for his men. Told him to get some
hot coffee for those who were in the
trenches, and make every one work, so
that they would feel that they were doing
something to look out for themselves. 1t
appears that this new bombardment had
hit portion of the trench and cayed it in,
and that shrapnel had wounded and killed
other men.
As / entered the trench / fell over a
dead body Of soldier, and found that
it was the youngster whom just few
minutes before had been talking to and
telling him what his duty was. 1t ap-
pears that after l left him and the she'll
ing commenced they had yelled to him
to seek cover, but lie had refused to leave
his post. He had been hit on the head
with piece Of slrapnel and killed in
stantly. hope, Ruth, that if my day
should come here I would be lucky enough
to die IS he did.
Went back to where these men were
buried in the dngout, took of my gas
mask, coat, climbed in there myself
where this earth was falling, thought
again of you and the youngsters, wished
l had finished my letter to you, and then
made up my mind that the thing to do
was TO go to work Had only little en-
trcnching tool.
Breathing Of a Dying Man,
l started in digging after knew that
one man had been partly uncovered just
before the last bombardment and had
been talking and that his face must be
somewhere near where I was. After q
while l made a hole leading to his face
because l could hear the breathing, but
the breathing was that Of man about to
die. l talked to him and yelled to the
others, but got no response.
Down to the left Of my way, deep
down, was man shouting in his dclirium,
saying "COme on, come on, fellows and

Roosevelt CharacterizeS the Presidents Appeal
For a Democratic Congress, as "Pure Partisanship'

the man this state should return 10 the United
States senate.
The democrats h6yc nominated Congressman
VIM. h. Walton. lie was nominated 10y u ~skillfully
made convention combination, which prevailed
against the Judgment. the wishes. and the efforts
of his party leaders. There was no popular demand
for him. His nomination was the result OF a person
al ambition, supported by vigorous political manip-
ulation. Before his election 10 the house of repre-
s~entatives Mr.. Walton had served in the state legis-
lature, where he evidenced no particular ability.
and none of the qualities of craftsmanship. During
his two years IN the house of representatives he
has failed to emerge for an instant above the dead
level of the average first term congressman. lie has
done nothing. said nothing, attempted nothing of
value TO his state or of service 30 his country which
entities him 10 promotion to a higher position by
our people, and particularly to u position where
great ability. aggressivcnesS. Judgment and cour-
age are required.
Yet the president of the United States issues
from that high Office an appeal to the people of
New Mexico to discard "a competent. LOYAL. able
public servant. the quality of whose patriotism and
service has been tested, and 10 send to the SENATE
IN his place a man who is manifcStly mprepared
and unable 10 perform anything like an equal scry-
ice either Tor the state or for our nation.
As a matter Of fact, the president is not ap.
pcaling for support for the winning of this war
lie has that support lie is now clothed with all
the power that any human agency could Use for
the prosecution of this war. Had there been other
powers 10 give him which would have been of ANY
possible service. democrats and republicans alike
IN congress would have conferred those powers.
The president IS asking this nation i'm effect
to continue the unlimited power he has exercised
during the war after the war has been concluded
lie is asking for u congress which is amenable 10
his wishes not for the winning of the war but for
determination of after war policies. To that end ne
asks New Mexico TO elect not It's ableSt citizen 20
the United states senate. hut one of its mediocre
citizens. one who has earned no claim to the dis
%tinction, and who has evidenced no ability for full
Killing the duties of the office. Briefly. President
Wilson asks us here in this state To elect a rubber

oi his constituents, but of n partisan adminiStra-
ton.
The presidents appeal is either pure partisan.

appeal for personal power after the war, the con.

and the spirit Of its people.
