SENATOR PRODS BAKER
FOR ARMY INJUSTICE

Washington, April l5-Failure on
the part of Secretary of War Baker
to permit General Ansell. former
acting judge advocate general, to
defend himself against General
Crowder's opposition to his efforts
to bring about needed reform in
army justice, as exemplfied in anti
qua;.d courts-martial proceeding,
and sentences, is meeting with such
disapproval among members of Con-
gress as will find voice at the extra
session of Congress. regarded as GER
tain in May.
Senator Chamberlain, Democratic
chairman in the last Congress of the
Senate Committee on Military AZ
fairs writes to Baker: 1T is painful
to find you fencing on qnes',on
which means so much to the enlisted
men who have suffered grave in
justices under the present system. /
asked you to give to the public the
statement made by Gen. S. T. Ansell
because it was a clarifying contri-
button to the subject and in order
that the people might have it as
nearly contemporaneously as pos
sible with the opposing views ex-
pressed by you and the judge ad-
vocate general.
"Your present recognition Of ex-
isting evils of the courts-martial sys-
tenn is strangely irreconcilable with
your published statement no more
remote than March 10. In that state
ment Of warm approval of the ex-
ist:ng system you seemed blind to
deficiency. as you have been deaf
throughout the war to complaints
Now. as you say, you did propose
certain legislation to the committee
about the Injustice of this system
which they did not see fit to rec
ommend for enactment and which,
very fortunately. did not become law
I can hardly believe that that bill,
prepared by the judge advocate gen.
eral of the army and submitted by
you. was a bona f'de effort to re-
form the existing system. The slight
est consideration of the bill will
show that had I been enacted into
law. it would have made the system
even more reactionary. if possible.

FIRE DESTROYS ABOUT
$4,000 WORTH OF PROPERTY

A fire which originated from un-
unknown causes blazed up with great
rapidity at the back of the J. n.
Watt & Co. furniture store Tues
day afternoon and looked very men-
ac.ng to surrounding property for a
time.
The fire department was exceed
ingly slow in getting in action, but
when they did get there, and ap-
piled the water, the flames were
promptly extinguisEed.
Losses aggregat.ng $4,000 or $20.-
900 were sustained, the heaviest
losers being J. H. Watt & Co, and
Mrs. Chas. Wagner whose losses
run some $1,000 or 5000 each. 9th
ers who had furniture stored or OH
er property in the wake of the
fire lost from $lOO to $1,000 each.
None OF the losers had but small
percentage of insurance, while a
number OF them had none at all.
The fire fighting apparatus ap-
peared to be very much out of re-
pair. The hose leaked so badly that
the pressure was very slight at most
of the nozzles. The response was
slow and those who were trying to
assist were handicapped by not
knowing where to find anything or
how to handle it.
This is a condition to be expect
ed with a purely volunteer fire de-
partment. The city should, and if
it prevents very serious and great
loss, must have at least chief who
is paid to make fire control his
business and see that his tools are
at hand and in repair, and be ready
to take charge when the emergency
arrives.
There is no lack of volunteers, but
there is lack of understanding al
this time, and larger number should
be trained to know how and what
to do and who to take orders from.
Santa Fe's Volunteer Fire Depart
ment has done remarkably efficient
work at times in the past and II
will again with little organiza-
ton and some outlay by the city.
In the mean time it might be well
to remember that the critic and bel
lyacher is at least as much reSpon-
bic for the unsatisfactory condi-
ton, and in most cases more so than
the man who gels out and does
what he can to save something from
the wreck.
As long as the city can not af-
ford a regularly paid department 1t
is Just as incumbent for the Smart
Alex who offers suggestions to do
something as it s Tor the "o.hcr
fellow"
But it is ever thus-the Stacker
and the d-d fool usually have the
most to say regarding the things
they know The least about and for
which they themselves are USUALLY
the most responsible.

 No person here knows anything of his people, if he has any. He served in the Confederate army during the Civil war, was in government as a scout on the plains in the '60s, before coming to Arizona. He was also buffalo hunter near and about the Adobe Walls near the four corners of Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico and Oklahoma. and remained there about as long as there was any buffalo.

RIVER RESERVE IS
 ATTRACTING PROSPECTORS
(From Sundays daiiy.i

T. L. Stanley, who arrived during the week from the Colorado Indian reserve, coming out via Parker, states that quite number of pros pectors are now going into that country, the mid wicatheE-ef the-r.iu- ter being a main inducement. Both the Arizona and California side of the river there are different scattered parties and it is believed the majority are being financed by mining men. MT. Stanley has an outfit of three miners, and they will be kept moving until next May in prospecting for quartz in the region northeast of old LaPaz, abandoning the placer feature on account of scarcity of water.
 He also stated it is difficult to hear from the different parties as the country is isolated, no communica- ton is afforded, while the inclination of many is to withhold from the pub lie what is going on. Specimens of gold ore were shown him, but the contents were not made known, neither was the location given. Mir. Stanley has oil interests near Gallup, New Mexico, but returns later to the desert to visit his party.

AN INTERESTING VETERAN OF THE
 CIVIL WAR
(From Sundays Daily)

For the first time known in this city a member of the famous Duryea Zouavcs of New York, of Civil war days, has been a visitor for several months in Sergeant John Wilson, and he is leaving today for the coast to remain for the winter, concluding a visit with his son, pr. A. D. Wilson, of Pine Crest
 This valiant veteran will probably leap lover the top" of the century goal, before he is through with this earthly sector, as his physical vigor is remarkable as he enters his S0th year, while his mental capacity is as keen as that of a youth. In all Ser geant Wilson is a remarkable man and of interesting personality. Here is one instance of what his physical machinery has accomplished since coming from the East, the making of the prettiest flower garden in this city, in which he dug the soil and placed 1t in the plot by using a wheel barrow with his own hands. He ac- complshed this task by working overtime" also, and said:
 When one has put in so many strenuous years hitting the trail as I have, the system must be greased up regularly to keep mind and body working in harmony, and that is the philosophy of living the true life"
 Sergeant Wilson occasionally sports his old Zouave uniform, which goes wherever he does, and in this day such a military raiment is viewed with lively interest as the phaki supplants this attire. But in another instance is this veteran of pronounced interest in his loyalty to the old flag, as he followed the late war every day to ascertaining what the American boys were doing over there His patriotic ardor asserted itself and again he wished he was with 'em. He declares the age of conscription should have been stretched out to 80 years, wher he would have reached into the firing line.
 After the Civil war he went on the road as a commercial traveller, visiting every city of prominence in the ma ton, and to this late day he goes alone, he knows the way, and if hi, age was not known he would be talk en for one who was just hopping into the class of half Of those years he has passed through.

NO EXHIBIT IS

The exhibit hall of the Yavapai County Chamber of Commerce is not only a credit to the county of Yava- pal, but to the entire state of Arizona. Nowhere in the Southwest can be found a chamber of commerce which has the wonderful ore specimens and beautiful display of fruits and grains as that exhibited by the Yavapai County Chamber of Commerce. There should not be a stranger or a visitor to this section leave before seeing this exhibit There is not a chamber of commerce in the Southwest, with the exception of Los Angeles, that has such exhibits.
 Represented in the mining display are g working properties, many pro- ducers and others in the stage of de velopment. There are specimens of practically every metal in the mineral kingdom. In addition to the mining exhibit is a display of the wonderful fruits, grains and vegetables which are grown in Yavapai county. A splendid exhibit of old Indian relics, collected for the chamber of com merce by the Boy Scouts is of interest to the outsider The leading papers of the state are kept on file, together with the mining, scientific, livestock and agricultural publications of the United States.

WHIPPLE BOYS VOICE
 NOTABLE IN EAST
CFrom Saturdays Daily)

The Journal-Miner is indebted to a reader. John L. Matthews, of West Gurley street, for information con corning Private Louis Siegle, Whip pie Barracks patient, whose singing has been such a treat to a number of local audiences lately.
 AIr. Martehws writes in part as follows:
 This young man, I happen to know, hails from Newark, New Jer- sey. where, six years ago, he organ ized the International Quartet, which became one of the most popular cab aret and photograph quartets in the East.
 For a while, this boy Siegle's voice was the talk of the town and among cabaret performers, he was conceded to be the best quartet tenor in New York. His voice at present is only a shadow of its former self, if 1 remember correctly, but he can still hold his own with the best around here, as you will agree. l have sev- eral people inquire of him, and all I ever heard him admit was he had done a little singing before"

FULTON HARVESTS BIG
 SUM FROM WILD OATS
(From Sundays Daily.J

There are many in this community who will be interested to learn that Claude B. Fulton has finally succeed ed in acquiring a snug fortune after nearly ten years of relentless litiga- ton to thwart him in Virginia courts. It will be remembered that he was sent to Prescott to reform his ways and mature his manhood about fifteen years ago when his father was alive, but the Western medicine as 1t was doped out in such a lively city as Prescott was at that time did not seem to meet with the appreciation of his sire, and the youth was cut off in the will with a small pittance of the estate, valued at nearly a quarter of a million of dollars.
 Fulton went back home after his father died, and patiently waited for the probating of the estate. He was disappointed, also sore, and litigation ensued, there being five heirs stipu- lated, among them a brother and sis ter, two nieces and a nephew of the deceased, who resisted the claims made by the prodigal from Arizona.
 All lower courts rendered judg- ments against young Fulton, and only a few weeks ago did the crash come from the higher tribunal to send the cases back for retrial on a bill of errors.
 The matter was compromised and Fulton is to receive immediately $49,761.65 as his proportion of the estate, consisting of farm and timber lands, securities and other interests. Had his original claim been liquidat- ed he would have been about S2O,OO0 under the sum for which the contest ants agreed to compromise and drop all suits. Fulton writes to a friend in this city as follows: Am coming back soon to harvest the rest of the wild oats left over there, but I am pretty tame bird these days"
