WANT A TEST WELL
 DRILLED AT ZUNI VALLEY

w. F. Purcell is circulating a peti ton to the State Land Commission, praying that a test well be drilled in township 15 north, range 30 east, which is in the Zuni Valley.
 An appropriation of $10,000 was made by the state legislature for drill ing such well, but no site was ever selected and the matter was dropped. The members of the state land board, who were recently in this county ap- praising lands, recommended that a petition be sent in and expressed the belief that it would be favorably act ed upon by the State Land Commis- sion. There will be plenty of signers to the petition, as it is the general opinion that this money should be used as was the intention when it was appropriated by the legislature.
 In the section where it is proposed to do the drilling much of the land is owned by the state.-St. Johns Ob- server.

A BLACK INDICTMENT

The American Legion Weekly has gone painstakingly into the work of the Federal Board for Vocational Edu- cation. The findings, presented in the Magazine, are black indictment of the governments shameful neglect of our disabled veterans.
 It is not enough that the cruelty in adequate arrangements for the care maintenance and re-education of oul disabled men be revised at this time Responsibility for the system which has sent gallant men to ask charity of the public, must be fixed. A spade must be called a spade. Men and groups of men responsible for condi. tions must be named, and the public which misplaced its faith in those men, vindicated.
 It is not enough that there be guar antees against repetition of pas, errors. There must be rectificatior of past wrongs. Men who put theil trust in the early and extravagant promises of the Federal Board for Vo. cational Education must have that trust restored. The first appropria, tion for funds for the cause of indus trial rehabilitation of disabled men was appropriately termed a draft of honor" on the nation.
 That promise must be redeemed-at promised value.-The American Le- zion Weekly.

ADDITIONAL RULINGS
 ON REINSTATEMENT

A series of decisions issued by the director of the bureau of war-riSk in- surance with the approval of the sec retary of the treasury provides more liberal conditions for reinstatement of lapsed or cancelled insurance.
 The provisions of Treasury Decision No. AT, allowing eighteen months from the date of discharge for reinstate- ment upon payment of only two months premiums on the amount of insurance to be reinstated, are re- tained That decision Is hberalized, however, by new provision that men out of the service are permitted to reinstate by merely paying the two months premiums without making a statement as to health at any time within three calendar months follow ing the month of discharge.
 After the three months following the date of discharge have elapsed, a statement from the applicant to the effect that he is in as good health as at the date of discharge or at the expiration of the grace period, which. ever is the later date, will be required together with a written application for reinstatement and the tender of two months premiums on the amount of insurance he wishes to reinstate.
 In order to give all former service men whose insurance has lapsed or been cancelled, fair chance to rein state their insurance, including men who have been out of the service eighteen months or more, and who are therefore barred from reinstatement under the former ruling, a special blanket ruling is now made which allows all ex-service men to reinstate their insurance before December 3l, 1919, provided that each applicant is in as good health as at date of dis charge or at expiration of the grace period, whichever is the later date, and so states in his application. Of course, it is necessary that he tender the two months premiums on the amount of insurance he wishes to re- instate.
 Service men who reinstated their in surance by payment of all back pre- miums prior to July 25, 1919, when the decision requiring payment of only two months premiums went into effect, upon written application to the Bureau may have any premiums paid in excess of two applied toward the payment of future premiums. For example, if after a policy had lapsed

WOMAN KILLED BY
 AUTOMOBILE AT PHOENIX

Mrs. F. L. Sandford an old-time resident of Arizona, was killed Mon day when she was struck by an auto mobile in front of the Sun drug store, on North First avenue, Phoenix. The car was driven by Miss Mabel Kimball of 392 North Tenth avenue.
 The numerous witnesses who saw the accident agreed that it was un- avoidable. Mrs. Sandford, who was elderly and walked with a cane, step ped out to cross First avenue some distance south of the street crossing, and in avoiding one car stepped in front of Miss Kimbalrs car. The young woman brought her car to an immediate stop, while Mrs. Sandford was carried into the Sun drug store and medical assistance called. She lived only few minutes.

NAVAJO MEDICINE
 MANS ART AT
 THE STATE FAIR

To assist in the preservation of the birthplace of one of Americas most distinguished citizens, Theodore Roosevelt, Sam Chief, head Navajo medicine man, is painting sand pie lures at the state fair.
 Sam Chief and his wife and son ar rived at the fair with Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Wetherill, well known pioneers of northern Arizona, from Tucson, where they have been spending the last few weeks. Sam Chiefs home is at Kayenta in the extreme northern end of Navajo county, where he leads the members of his tribe in their cere- monial dances and directs few of the younger bucks in the wonderful art of sand painting, of which he is the one and only master. Sam Chief is only the name which the Navajo medicine man has adopted for his use with the white race His Indian name is Hatallie Clitsoie, which means in the white mans language, "The Yel- low Singer"
 Mrs. Wetherill, who, during her long residence in Arizona has learned the Navajo language and become the close friend of the Navajo people, was recently appointed Arizona chairman of the Woman's Roosevelt Memorial Association, Inc, of New York. This association was organized to purchase, restore, and maintain the birthplace of Theodore Roosevelt, No. 28 East Twentieth street, New York, and also the adjoining property, No. 26 East Twentieth street, to be used in per petuity for all Americanization pur- poses. The campaign in which Sam is assisting is for the raising of $1 ,000- 900 as an endowment fund. Contribu- tors of $l to $l00 to this fund will receive small rose-gold finished bronze pins, 6 replica of the portrait medal lion of Theodore Roosevelt, made by Miss Anna V. Hyatt. Every contribu- tors name will also be inscribed in the great donors book to be placed in Roosevelt's house.
 Wednesday of last week Sam Chief worked in booth constructed for the association on the north side of the agricultural building. Here he skill fully sifted the blue and green pull verized copper rock, the black graph ite and the white quartz through his fingers onto smooth sand and form ed with all of the symmetry and the strange beauty of Indian art figure symbolizing the creation. The gold en colored powder trickled through his fingers and formed a sun held aloft in the left hand of the god of creation. The golden stream was guided to the other hand and the three sunfowers appeared at the tops of the three straight green stems which the strange god held as symbol of the plant life which he brought into being.
 The booth where Sam Chief worked on his first day, however, was not big enough for some of the more elabo-
The Coconino sun., 1919-11-14

rate pictures which he wishes to paint, and so next day he moved into the art exhibit building, where his pictur- esque native costume and his unique art made real addition of color and contrast to the display of that depart ment.
 While in Tucson Sam Chief spoke before the University of Arizona as- sembly, his words being translated by Mrs. Wetherill as a Navajo blessing and prayer for the school. Some of the products of his art have also been made permanent exhibit in the uni versity museum where they are re- garded as one of the rare possessions of the school.

which resulted in the capture of Sc

Mallet of Bernal!llO, one of the gen.
erals Yankees, over the same battle
field on which his father fought the
Prussians nearly half century before.
And IN that experience Corporal
Mallet probably stood alone OF all the
men that New Mexico sent overseas.
There were sons of French veterans
of the war of 1S70-1S7l in the ranks
of the French army. of course. but
there were probably not many IN the
American eXpedtonary forces and in
all likelihood fed of these faced the
Prussians on the same ground that
their fathers did.
Corporal Mallct's father IS Pierre
Mallet of Bernaillo. He was called to
the French colors in 1867 and remain
ed in the army from that date until
1873, his service including the period
of the Franco russian war. As a
dragon, he fought in the Battle of
Sedan, at which the Prussians practc-
ally cleared their way to Paris and
forced the French emperor Napoleon
III, to surrender.
Corporal Mallet was under fire on
eleven historic battle fields in France
and it was the last of these-in the
Argonne- Meuse offensive-that he
tramped the same ground that his
father had in the previous French
Prussian war He was at st. Quentin,

NE VI VOLUME Of
STATE REPORTS
NOW PUBLISHED

The reported cases determined in
the supreme court of, New Mexico
during 1918 in a typographically per-
feet and eXcellentlv bound volume
are now being distributed to the law
yers of the state by Albright q An
dersOn, printers and binders, that
firm having taken over the work of
producing the volume for the state.
Most of the opinions were written by
Justices Hanna, Parker and Roberts
occupying the bench during 1918 in
all except cases n which they were
disqualified
The syllabi of the cases, the index
and the paging arrangements, the
work of Supreme Court Reporter Ira
L. Grimshaw. are splendidly done and
reflect much credit on the careful and
painstaking attention given to the pro-
duction of the book A new feature
of the index = the alphabetically ar
ranged list of New Mexico cases cited
in the Pacific Reporter, which re-
porter system is largely used by at
torneys in New Mexico and elsewhere
in the southwest.
A review of the volume shows that
it VIII doubtless prove of unusual in
terest to members of the Albuquerque
bar. Many important cases were APP
pealed to the supreme court from
Bernalillo, Sandoval, Valencia and
Mckinley counties, IN which Albu-
querque lawyers appear as counsel for
either appellant or appellee.
Among the cases of unusual interest
in Albuquerque, reported in the new
volume, are the case of the city and
the Water Supply comDan". as to the
validity of the 100000 issue of water
bonds decided favorably for the mu-
nicipality; the case of Frances VS..
Jastro, involving the right of stock
ment to Craze their herds on so-called
,"Checkerboard," lands owned partly
by private individuals and partly by
the federal government; and the case
of the Occidental Life vs.. Steam, in
volving the right of an insurance COM
pany to refuse payment on life in
suranCe policy within specified
| time, if the insured committed suicide,
the opinion defining certain aspects of
an incontestible clause in life in
suranCe contract.
Numerous other cases of local and
statewide interest are to be found in
| the volume, the opinions establishing
/ new principles of law in this jurisdic-
! ton, and affirming previously an
nounced decisions of the court. There
are total of ninety-four cases re-
| ported.
