| | THURSDAY, JULY.10, 1919. MAJOR FRAYNE BAKER IS HOME FROM OVERSEAS Major Frayne Baker returned to Bismarck on Monday evening from overseas, He left St. Nazaire, France, June 16, arriving in New York on June 26, He had been away from the capital city for 26 months, during which time he was in the service. Previous to going to France he was stationed on the Rio’Grande river at Fort McIntosh, Loredo, Tex., for fif- teen months, and served as quarter- master for the Loredo border district. si ae promoted to major in August, In France, Major Baker was locat ed at St. Nazaire, where he was em ‘barkation quartermaster, entering up- on that: work on January 10. The camp at St. Nazaire was known as the best camp in France, and it was under the command of Col. J. K. Par- sons. Before going to Nazaire, Major Baker was in charge of the army sup- ply park of the first army located ten miles from Verdun, supplying 650,000 troops. The duties at the St. Nazaire camp were the operation of four large messes with a capacity of feeding daily 25,000 men. The operation of “delousing’ ‘and bathing was neces- sary for all the men prior to embark- ation for the United States, as no ver- min was allowed to depart. The capa- city of this plant was $6,009 men per day. Every man was inspected, his clothes and equipment sterilized and a complete new outfit of undercloth- ing was issued. It is of interest to know that in the camp at.Nazaire the army also oper- ated 14 sales commissaries for the benefit of the troops in which the daily sales averaged $2,000 per com- missary. The greatest bulk of this was-for candy and tobacco. While in France Major Baker met former Governor Hanna, Lieut. Col. E. P. Quain, Maj. G. H. Russ and Lieut. Col. Wills, and ¢ number of other American officers stationed there. Lieut. Col. Wills was form- erly second lieutenant and was quar- termaster at Fort Lincoln during the construction of the post.

GORS ONE ROUND: “RIGHT 10 JAW” Alleged Agitator Unfortunate in Selection of Audience Wed- nesday Evening FRAZIER IS INTERESTED Governor Appears in Police Court to Make Investigation on His Own Hook Albert Ross, late of Ole Hanson’s town, was unfortunate in his choice of an audience last night in discours- ing, at the corner of Main and Fifth streets ,on the United States army, America, its government and Ameri- can institutions generally. The Seattle man has been an I. W. W. for ten years. Ross’ pet antipathy is the United States army. He was undiplomatic enough to so state to Sergt. L. H. Ford of the Bis: marck recruiting office. The conversation went thusly: Ross: “I don't give a damn for the army or anybody in it.” Ford: BIFF, a stiff right to the jaw. There the discussion ended. When Ross came to he was in the hands of Captain Jensen, while Ford was en route to a drug store where arnica could’ be had. An hour or two later Ross was ar- raigned before Police Magistrate Howell, Among the interested spectators was Governor Frazier. The chief ex ecutive had been summoned into the case, it is said, by E. R. Van Doran. Mr. Van Doran, whose home is at Fryburg, has been in Bismarck a few days, and he was a member of the street-corner crowd which witnessed the incident. The governor wanted to know all about’ it. He questioned Sergeant Ford and First Class Private J. L. Webb of, the Bismarck recruiting of- fice, and the I. W. W. cause received little solace from their replies. They told a straightforward story of last night's trouble and of other brushes which they had had with the I. W. W. They assured the governor that the United States army was not go- business by I. W. W. The governor but police’. Magistrate “$1 and costs.” While Mr. Ross was well upholst ered with money, he declined.to pay, and chose a jail sentence. to jail Mr.,Ross further expressed his supreme distaste for all things Amer-|! ican. “I've ‘been an I. W. W. for ten, years—henceforth I'm going to be an anarchist,” he informed Chief Mar- tineson, says. the latter. Mr. Ross was employed in the Unit- ed States shipyards at Seattle He had.a brief accident, and Uncle Sam paid him $700 in compensation. Mr. Ross apparently left Seattle about the time Mayor Ole Hanson got busy. He has been in Bismarck for the last ten days. “Ross is an agitator, plain and sim- ple,” said Sergt.:Ford today, “Wher- ever a United States recruiting of fice has been established we have had trouble with the,I.

Governor Frazier apparently, had been misinformed last. night. He told me that he was advised that the city police had beat- en up an innocent farmer. “Ross was looking for trouble. He expressed his contempt for everything American. He declared the govern- ment was in league with capital against labor; he usserted that the I, W. W. wasn't getting square deal, and he was particularly violent in his condemnation of the army and of men | who wear the uniform.” The charge against Ross when ar- raigned last evening was disorderly conduct. He admitted in police court, it is said, that he had criticised the United States army. Whether Governor Frazier intends to proceed any further in the matter could not be learned today. BURLEIGH COUNTY BOY HAS SERVICE RECORD Lester Varnum, son of former Rep. G. 1H. Varnum of Menoken, is home from overseas after 15 months’ active service with the Canadian field artil- lery.- Tha Burleigh county boy orig- inally enlisted for service with Uncle Sam. He had been in the national army for ten months when he was mustered out at Hattiesburg, Miss., because of physical disability.
