PACKED PROBE CHARGE
is HURLED BY ANSELL
Assails Baker For Makeup of Inves-
tigating Committee and Defends
the Rights of Soldiers

Lieut. Col. S. T. Ansell, formerly
acting judge advocate general of the
army, who brought to light the enor-
mites perpetrated upon men in the
military service during the war in spite
of the threats of Secretary Baker, who
contented that no such injustice was
going on, has in effect charged the
American Bar Association investigation
before which he has been testifying at
Washington. with being packed by
Baker, who instigated it.
He declares that apparently no real
effort has been made to get at the facts
and intimates that the entire procedure
has in view the embarrassing of the Of
ficials in the War Department, incIud-
ing Baker and General Crowder, with
whom he has differed. "In fact" he
said, there are several Investigations
going on. The Judge Advocate Gener-
al has been sent to Europe to look into
the European system of military JUS
tice, field which | covered just one
year ago. and made report which was
never even read by the Secretary of
War. In this investigation of the
American Bar Association they seem to
have called the available major gener-
ais of the Regular Army and | under
stand they intend to call all the living
ex-secretaries OF war. 1t really is
pity that Gustavus Adolphus, who lived
some three hundred years ago and from
whom came considerable part of our
military legal code, could not also ap-
pear before them to commend the sys-
TEN which he administered.
volumes of statistics have been pre-
pared to show that this code possesses
merits which should be attributed to an
institution hardly less than divine. For
my own part, l believe that remedial
legislation to cure the awful conditions
that prevail should be placed upon the
statute books by Congress without
waiting for the reports of theorists. in
veshgators and statisticians. The real
statistics show that in the case of Of
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1919-05-01

ficers thirty-fve out of every sixty-five
are acquitted by courts martial of the
offenses charged against them, while in
the case of enlisted men only six out of
every ninety-four are thus acquitted.
The difficulty with the code upheld by
Secretary Baker Is that it does not con-
template that court-martial shall be a
court. dispensing justice according to es-
tablished principles and independently
of personal power. 1t regards the court
martial merely as the right hand of the
commanding officer to assist him in
maintaining discipline in the ranks.
This is the same as the British system
of loo years ago, when the King pre-
scribed articles of war, offenses and
punishment. Of 2,2l2 cases reviewed

ANNIVERSARY SATURDAY
Fifty-five Years Ago That Day Jones
Men Raided This Section

A very interesting historical arti-
Gle, having to do with the many bat
ties, engagements and skirmishes oc-
curing on Maryland soil during the
War of the Revolution, that of 1872
and the Civil War, will be found on
another page of today's Republican.
Last Saturday, April 26th. was the
anniversary of the skirmish which &C.
CURED in Oakland between the troops
of Gen. Jones, of the Southern army
who raided this section and members
of the Siyth West Virginia Infantry,
then stationed here to guard the line
of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
and the bridge west of town. This
structure was burned, as related by
Mr.. John W. Hart, of Oakland, to The
Republican yesterday when he was
asked something concerning the mat
ter. Mr.. Hart also said that Jones'
troops came into town on Sunday
morning and went right along I'M
molested, the Northerners being so
greatly outnumbered that it would
have been useless to attempt to put
up defense and the latter broke for
the timber, all making their escape.
The bridge above referred to was a
wooden structure ,weatherboarded and
rooted with shingles. 1t was burned
by the invaders and made a wonder
full fire, but was replaced in a few
days by another bridge not so preten-
tious and without any covering either
on the sides or top. Mr.. Hart was
an eyewitness to this destruction, his
father and mother at that time resid-
ing quite close to the bridge. He also
stated that his father as we'll as sew
eral other residents of town were
placed under arrest by the Jones men,
but after propounding number of
questions bearing upon the relations
of themselves and others with respect
to their allegiance as between the
North and South. all were allowed to
go.

CRELLIN MILL RESUMES
Big numbering Plant Near Oakland
Started This Morning

The immense numbering plant of
the Kendall Lumber Company, located
at Crellin, four miles south of Oak
land, resumed operations this morn
ing after having been closed down
since November 9th last, the shut
down of the plant at that time being
attributed to the lack of orders and
conditions made in the building in
dustry owing to the war.
The mill, which is both circular and
band saw QUILTED has at work a full
complement of men and in conversa-
ton with Superintendent Reams this
morning he stated that everything in
and about the big mill was running
smoothly and that it is the expecta-
ton Of the management to keep the
men at work from now on through
out the months to come.
The number of men actually en-
gagged upon the mill this morning
when the big five hundred horse pow-
er engine made it's first revolution
was fifty-eight. This number will be
increased to at least seventy-fve or
more by the end of the present week.

OUTRAGE AT KITZMILLER
Dynamite Exploded Against Door of
dwelling While Occupants Silent

Dwelling While Occupants Slept
A crime of very serious nature was
perpetrated at Kitzmiller early last
Sunday morning when some unknown
person placed a charge of dynamite
on the doorsill of the house occupied
by Mr.. and Mrs. Richard Lyons and
their two children and exploded the
same. At the time Mr.. Lyons was
away from home but his wife and
daughter were sleeping in room I'M
mediately above that where the ex-
plosion took place, while his son was
sleeping in room at the rear of the
house. Fortunately none were injur-
ed, but it was a narrow escape for all
the occupants.
Evidently the charge consisted of
two or three sticks of the explosive
and was set off by time fuse, for
considerable damage was done to the
front of the house as also the con-
tents of front room. The door was
entirely destroyed, door frame and sill
badly splintered, window glass brok-
en- into fragments and considerable
other damage resulting. Chairs and
other furniture inside the room were
reduced to kindling wood.
As soon as possible after the ex-
plosion Mrs. Lyons aroused some of
the neighbors who shut Of the gas
which had been escaping owing to
the fact that the stove had been dis
connected from the pipe, and rendered
such other assistance as was neces-
sary
Such investigation as was possible
was made on Sunday by the local Of
ficials and also by States Attorney
Jones, who was called to Kitzmiller
in the afternoon, but nothing definite
in the way of clue as to the perpe-
traitor of the outrage was secured.
The officials are still working on the
case in the hope of securing evidence
against the party responsible for the
heinOus crime.

Citizen" Expresses a Keen Appre-
citation of What Mountain Lake
Park Could Again Be and Calls
Upon the Loyal Citizens of the
Town and County to Support New
Movement Looking to Its Rchabili-
tation.
To the Editor of The Republican.
A movement is on foot to save
Mountain Lake Park to this commu-
nifty and to restore it to its former
position.
1t is proposed to establish a train
ing school for Christian workers,
whict will be permanent. Then
there will be summer schools, chau-
tauquas, which cannot fail to bring
many people to the Park. That will
mean many hundreds of dollars to
the farmers of the county and to our
merchants. AS a business PROPOSE
ton it is Al. All this community is
asked to do is to guarantee one-half
of the bonded debt, the other half
being secured outside.
Think of this, citizens of Garrett
county, and make up your minds to
do your bit when approached by the
committee.
Its the best opportunity that has
presented itself for many a day. If
we let it go by it is gone forever, and
we will be the losers.
A 'rore EXTENDED article on why we
should give this movement our best
and most loyal support is in course
of preparation and will be submitted
for the consideration of your readers
in the issue of next week. CITIZEN.

Henry, which was recently purchas-
ed by Mr.. f. o. Glotfelty, of Oak

day or two prior to the fire and in
its destruction some furniture which
had not then been removed, was also
burned.

sRETURNING FROM OVERSEAS
several Local Soldiers Arrived Home
In Recent Days.

Nearly every day one can see upon
the streets of Oakland the faces of
those who departed for overseas and
have been fortunate enough to reach
home again after experiences of the
most narrowing type in the trenches,
at sea, on the battlefield, in the hos
pitfalls at home and abroad, but an
ever-kind Providence has been with a
large majority of them and they have
been permitted to again assemble
about the family board and relate to
their relatives and friends some of
the awful wonders and the horrors of
war which presented themselves as
they were engaged in deadly combat
with the common foe of the nations
of the earth.
Among the more recent arrivals in
Oakland are the following:
Walter Wolf, who saw service in
France as a member of one of the
pioneer organizations who did hard
fighting from the moment they ar
rived until the order was issued call
ing them home.
Cletis Griffith, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Griffith, came in on last Sun
day night. He saw service in France
as one of the Headquarters Company
of the One Hundred and Thirty
fourth Field Artillery. He went over
with his command last May and as
he showed natural talent as an ar
fist he was made a comoufagist and
soon became an expert in this line
of the service.
Sergeant Charles Moon, son of Mr..
and Mrs. Abraham Moon of near
Mountain Lake Park, who went from
Oakland late last fall, returned on
Saturday night from overseas. He
was sent to France in the Pioneer bri-
gade, being transferred from that
command to the Eighty-frst Division.
He failed to get into any of the en-
gagements, although the day before
the armistice was signed provision
had been made for the advance by
this division toward the front.
Among the one hundred recently
returned wounded soldiers from over
eas who arrived at Fort McHenry
last Saturday night and on Sunday
4yryN of aVA aJnht
enlisted men from Maryland The
men arrived at the Maryland fort in
three trainloads from the debarka-
ton hospital at Hoboken, n. j., and
Newport News, Va. They landed in
this country on Friday. Among the
number is one Garrett countian, he
being Private John F. Nogel, of Com
pany C, 111th Infantry, whose home
is at Kitzmiller. Most of the men
who arrived in Baltimore in company
with Private Nogel have only slight
wounds about the arms and limbs and
expect to be discharged after a short
treatment.
Another local soldier who recently
landed in this country was Harold
Dawson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles
F. Dawson, of Oakland, who got into
New York with his division on last
Friday. He will not reach his home
here for some days to come as the
entire division of 81 900 men is being
held in the metropolis to participate
in monster Victory Liberty Loan
parade On May 9th.
