EDITORIALS.
RECALLED AN OLD FRIEND

WHILE engaged in conversation with Mr.. Frank
Turner in the office of Dr. Aonzo Cleaver the geoogist
The Oasis editor was surprised and grated at couple of
bits of information dropped by the gentleman.
Before the Madero Revolution in Mexico while Mr.
Turner was manager of the famous big 100000 acre ranch
and timber tract "Lot No. Four Anexas, he received
richly embossed letter with foreign postmark, saying
that the writer Baron Waeker Gotter had been German
Minister to MKco in the latter part of the last century,
and at one time somewhat interested in the original
syndicate which purchased in the late $685. from the Mex
lean government several million of land in several
parcels in various states of the republic of which Lot
Number Four south of Bsbee, Arizona, and in Sonora,
was a component part
Herr Waeker Gotter added that being transferred
from the post he filled in Mexico to the Serbian court at
Belgrade he had asked firm of bankers and brokers in
Nogaes Sonora P Sandoval Co., to- subscribe for the
principal newspaper along the international lne to be
mailed to his address, he could ka"p informed on the
progress of events in the neghbohood of his former in
terests Sandova Co., subscribed Immediately for "The
Oasis" and in the columns of this newspaper he had seen
mention of LOT Number Four" and Mr. Turner's
as manager However, the old diplomat hungry for
more news of Northern Sonora and Mr. Turner courteous
" supplied it. receiving therefor gratefully worder letter
of thanks.
The editor recalled that subscriptions Messrs Sandova
renewed every year, long the Baron Waeker Got
ter was alive and it continued to go to his address
ly scor of years. Mr. Sandova visited the baron in Bel
grade and he had preserved copy Of The Oasis
He had stack yard high of copies of The Oasis.
Mr.. Turner told great deal more of ntares about the
baron which may appear later.

ONE FAD BUSTED


REPEAL of the daylight saving law carried
the presidential veto, is of the most sensible
curences of the time.
The idea that men who wanted to get up and go to
work hour earlier than usual had to make everybody
do by law of the most udicrous fads of all
the fads fad ridden world has had to experience.
Some day play producing genius will give the world
immortal production based upon that fad which will
rival Mark Twains Colonel Sellers with his Congressional
appropriation in the "Glded Aga
It is one fad busted.

WILSON PLEA FOR
slOO,OOO,OOO AID
VOTED HOUSE
Relief Fund For Europe Is
o. KID After Presidents
Urgent Appeal

Washington, Jan. 14.-Appropria-
tion of s100, 100000 for famine relief
In Europe outside of Germany was
approved last night by the House,
which passed the administration
measure after it's enactment had
been urged anew by President Will
son as the only effective means of
combating the westward spread of
Bolshevism. The bill now goes to the
Senate, where its early passage is
planned.
Party lines were effaced in the
House debate and vote, and despite
energetic demands by opponents of
the bill for more specific information
regarding the proposed expenditure
and criticism of the President, Her
bert c. Hoover and Vance McCor-
mick, chairman of the war trade
board, special rule reported by the
rules committee was adopted and
afterward the bill was passed, 24O
to 73.
The only amendment accepted was
one by Representative Sherley, in
charge of the measure, which per-
mits use of part of the fund for re-
lief in countries contiguous to
Europe. This would make it possible
to aid the Armenians and other suf-
fering peoples in the near east.
President Wilson's urgent appeal
that the appropriation be authorized
to aid the consummation of peace
was sent to Senator Martin and Rep
resentative Sherley, chairmen OF
the congressional appropriation conn.,
nd
of the House by Mr.. SherIey. 1t was
supplemented by report to the
State Department from Henry d.
White, Republican member of the
American peace delegation. Both
messages said the problem of sup
plying food to the distressed peoples
recently liberated from the rule of
the central powers, was one of para
mount Importance in obtaining u re-
turn to normal conditions.
Hot Opposition Develops
Mr.. Sherley informed the House
that an interallied council composed
of two representatives each from
Great Britain, France, Italy and the
United States will supervise the food
distribution, but this statement did
not satisfy opponents of the bill.
Representative Gillett, of Massachu-
sets, Republican. said the policy
proposed might cost billion dollars.
Representative Smell, of New York,
Republican. wanted to know exactly
how the money was to be spent, and
Representative Gordon, of Ohio
Democrat, asserted that no informa-
tion was given that the fund was
needed to promote peace. Represen-
tative Slayden, of Texas, Democrat,
also spoke against the measure.
Reference to Food Administrator
Hoover caused Representative
Wood. of Indiana, Republican, to de-
clare Mr.. Hoover 1.-The most expen-
sive luxury ever fastened on this
country" and he offered an amend
ment to put the Red Cross in charge
of the food relief. 1t was defeated.

Paris, Jan. 1.-the supreme coun-
Gil of the peace congress resumed
its sessions yesterday afternoon at
the French foreign office. Japan
was represented among the great
powers and there was notable
gathering of military, naval, econo-
mic and financial representatives.
The proceedings were divided into
two distinct stages. The first, the
morning meeting, was presided over
by Marshal Foch, when the military.
naval and economic authorities
reached an agreement on new terms
for the armistice expiring on Janu-
ary IL. The United States was rep
resented by Major General Bliss. Ad-
miral Benson and Herbert c. Hoov-
er; Great Britain by General Sir
Henry Wilson: France by Marshal
Foch. General Weygand, his chief
of staff. M. Klotz, minister of A.
nance, and M. Leygues, minister of
marine, and Italy by General Robi-
liant.
Powers I'm Accord
The>accord reached is said to have
been complete, embracing financial
terms, whereby Germany must re-
store the sums taken from the cities
and towns in the devastated re-
gions; military. whereby Germany
must restore the guns taken and
promptly deliver up rolling stock and
locomotives, and economic, whereby
food relief will reach the famished
regions.
1t was this program, completed in
the morning, which confronted the
council when it convened at 8
o'clock. AS the state 5men gather
ed. 1T was seen that their ranks were
notably increased by the two Japan
ese delegates, Viscount Chinda and

the engineers told Colonel Miner. 1T
may not be strong enough
we sent an empty caisson with a
team of horses over it first, and the
bridge stood. Next we tried an empty
caisson with six horses, and the
bridge still stood. We tried a gun
next and the bridge sagged.
Anchored the Bridge
I'VE anchored the bridge as best
we could to keep it from slipping
further mad then started the guns
across, one at time. 1t would have
been impossible to trust the bridge
with more than one gun at a time.
Ihis meant that we had no Off
GERS to send across with each gun.
MOST of the guns crossed the bridge
with only the three drivers. Yet, as
| soon as they reached the other side,
they got the guns into position to
batter way for the other guns which
| followed them.
Il wish you could have seen those
drivers. many of them Polish boys
from the mines. All the guns ex-
cept those of the battalion ordered
across the river were keeping up an
| incessant protective fire.
"The guns rumbled down the road
| to the river, the six horses in a wild
| frenzy, and with a skillful turn the
drivers steered into the narrow ap-
proach leading to the bridge, across
| the risky bridge and to the enemy
| infested bank opposite.
Not a Man Faltered
Yet those boys We're as cool as II
they were going to target practice
1t took three hours to get the bat
| talon across by this method Not a
man hesitated or made panicky
step.
That's how the boys of the One
Hundred and Ninth behaved in ac-
ton"
Colonel Miners story continues
through September and into October.
when the One Hundred and Ninth
fought for eight days in the Argonne
Forest, starting the drive that broke
the enemy's resistance. There his
story ends, October 4, when he was
wounded.
He will not talk of the events of
october 4. but here's what the Off
cial citation has to say about it:
Colonel Asher Miner, One Hundred
and Ninth Field Artillery. for extra
ordinary heroism in action at Apre-
mont, France. October 4, 1918. One
of the batteries of the regiment COM
manded by this officer. assigned to
an advanced position in direct sup
port of an infantry attack, was heav-
lily shelled by the enemy while it was
going into action.
1T being necessary. therefore, to
take another position. Colonel Miner
went forward under heavy shell fire
and personally supervised the placing
of the guns in the new position.
Colonel Miner continued, his efforts
until he received a severe wound that
later necessitated the amputation of
his leg"

ON PRELIMINARIES
OF PEACE PARLEY
Delegates in Accord Financial, Military and Eco
nomic Terms-President Wilson Attended
Session Yesterday Afternoon

raj Grayson accompanied President
Wilson and Secretary Lansing, with
Bernard M. Baruch and Edward N.
Hurley later added to the American
representation.
Delegates Increasing
The British forces were similarly
increased by Andrew Bonar Law
and General Wilson, while France,
besides Premier Clemenceau and
Foreign Minister Pichon, had its
ministers of marine, commerce, IL
nance and reconstruction and Admi-
raj De Bon, chief of the French ma
val staff.
Vittorio Orlando. the Italian pre-
mier, was the only absentee, having
been called to Rome, but Baron Som
nino, the foreign minister, was pres
ent with General Robilant.
The scene again was interesting
as the distinguished personalities
gathered. President Wilson motor
ed to the foreign office with Admi-
raj Grayson, and again carried his
large leather portfolio, while the
British prime minister. Lloyd George,
had with him his dispatch case. Mar
shall Foch was putting large cigar
as he arrived, suggestive of General
Grant.
The meeting was held in M.
Pichon's private office, as the large
Selle De La Paix, with its huge
horseshoe. table, still awaits the
gathering of the full delegations. The
session was protracted, with indi-
cations that the new terms of the
armistice,. with their military, eco
nomic and financial phases were re-
ceiving very full discussion.
The temps says the discussion of
the supplementary clauses of the
armistice dealt with such points as
the occupation of certain German
ports, the use of the Reichdank gold
reserve for the provisioning of Ger
MANY and naval questions.
