SATURDAY, JULY 7, 1917. BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE DRAWING MAY B DEFERRED UNTIL “IDLE OF WEEK Only Eight States Have Organiz- ation’ Complete, Say Wash- ington Reports * METHOD OF MAKING DRAFT IS DESCRIBED HERE’S HQW YOU WILL BE DRAWN FOR SERVICE It is understood that it is pro- posed to place in a single jury wheel in Washington one complete set.of numbers. When a number is taken from the wheel, the man in each exemption~district whose card bears that serlal number will be drafted. Thus, as each number is drawn, approximately 30,000 men will be drafted, or one in each exemption district. If _ 1,200,000 men are to be called be- fore the exemption boards in. the first selection, which seems high- ly probable,s only 40 numbers would need to’be drawn. Washington, D. ©., July 7—Pros- pects for setting into motion the draft machinery for the new national army by Monday as planned by Provost Marshal General Crowder were regard- ed today as remote, since organization is complete in only eight states. De- linquent states probably will make it necessary to defer the first drawing to the middle of the coming wee! Administration officials suit main- tain strict silence as to the method to be followed. With the recent state- ment by Secretary Baker that the drawing would ‘be held in Washington, however, coupled with the stress laid upon the serial numbering of registra- tion cards, the general outline of the plan is clearly indicated. There are numerous complications which must arise, however, and the method of solving them can be known n the administration makes plans. For instance, the number of registered individuals in each district who are liable for mili- tary service will certainly not be the same. Aliens are registered, but not liable for duty. Equal Distribution. All-this must be considered in fram- fethé regulations. © Provisions must also-be-made to balance as far as pos- sible.the chances of military duty be- tweén'the men in each district, so that disqualification of a large number in any particular Uistrict for any reason will not put upon those qualified_addi- YOU CAN'T BEAT THIS ONE George Gussner’s Big Ranch of 700 acres is offer- ed for sale; it is situated only one and one-half miles from the Northern Pacifie depot. 'This Ranch. has all the improve- ments necessary for growing feed- stabling and fattening 1000 head of cattle at one time fora period of fyom four and one-half to five months, It too would be a Great Ranch on which to raise and handle thoroughbred stock, and a place of this kind is very much needed in and around Bismarck at the present time The place is newly built up and in a manner to last, so very little improvements will be needed for years to come. There is enough sand and gravel on the place to build another Bismarek. From these beds of sand and gravel qj am making daily deliveries to con- tractors and builders in Bismarek and nity as well as shipping it away to out-of-town _ parties, which pays one a good yearly re- venue.

For 25 years I have labored to make of this Ranch an ideal Pack- ing Plant, until today with a very little outlay of money one could have a plant of this kind second to none in all the northwest.

It may be necessary, also, to draft ‘enough men to fill up the regulars and national guard to war strength, al- though no decision to this end has been reached as yet. ‘The regulars are now close to war strength and the guard units are recruiting rapidly. If, possible, they will be completed by’ the war voluateer system. FRAINE WAY NOT HEAD NEW GUARD BRIGADE (Continued from page one) itstreops will train with the latter division at American Lake, Wash., in- stead of at Deming, N. M. This ad- vice is not necessarily final. New in- structions may even. now be on the way. The 20th is the northwestern divi- sion, comprising Montana, Nevada, Washington, Idaho, Oregon, Califor- nia, Wyoming and Colorado. North Dakota, it is anticipated, will be bri- gaded with a Montana regiment of in- fantry. There is nothing to indicate the date upon which the state troops will be called. It had been hinted that the Second, which will be little more than a skeleton of a regiment for some weeks to come, will not be called into active service until late in the fall, and possibly not until mid- winter, when it will be sent to train- ing quarters in some milder climate than American Lake. The adjutant general, however, is of the opinion that the two regiments will be called at the same time. Of one thing there is practical cer- tainty and that is that the 20th divi sion, made up very largely of green troops, will not get to the French front until next spring.

SAYS FEDERAL AGT {Resolutions Adopted APPLIES 10 BOOZE ~“HOWEVER HANDLED Webb-Kenyon Act Violated if Brought in by Aeroplane. Declares . Hildreth Fargo, N. D., ‘7.—That the Webb-Kenyon act applies only to liq- uor brought into the state through regular interstate transportation chan- nels and not to private stock carried across the line, as in the case of the two taborers arrested this week for bringing in whiskey from Moorhead, was the contention of Attorney Gar- field Rustad of Moorhead, defending John Tjorne, 41, and Andrew Hagen, 46, the men accused. United States District Attorney Hildreth argued that the law applies with equal force to liquor brought into the state in the consumer’s pocket, by airship, railway or automobile, and that such act is in violation.of the federal statutes. Judge Amidon of the United States district court has taken the case un- der advisement. LEAGUE BEGINS FLANK MOVEMENT ON REGENTS Still Meeting Indirectly Charge at Malfeasance The purpose of the assault begun the first of this week in the Nonpar- isan league's daily organ was revealed yesterday in resolutions adopted at a league meeting in Still, indirectiy charging the board of regents with malfeasance in office and asking the governor and attorney general to be- gin an investigation to determine ‘vhethe® the board should not be turned out. This flank movement is regarded by friends of the regents as an indication that the frontal attack begyn by the administration last win- ter “has been given up as a failure, and that the governor and attorney general now ‘hope to create so much |, sentiment against the board through, the Ladd allegations that popular ac- claim will demand its removal and} give the league control of the state's} institutions. The fact that so far as| can be learned the governor has not sought to appoint or commission mem. ; bers to succeed Scow and Power, whose terms would have expired July 1, had successors been duly confirmed by the senate, strengthens the belief that the administration has given up its original line of campaign. The resolutions “adopted by 200 league members,” according to Organ- izer Richardson's notation, at Still yesterday were signed by Frank Pra- ter, J. A. Varley and C. F. Lindsey. In brief they recite that “Whereas it is now admitted that the board of re- gents has sought to force the resigna- tion of Dr. Ladd; and whereas the vast majority of North Dakota people are convinced it would be a calam. ity to remove said Dr. Laddf and community and aid the chapters to! whereas a comparison of all evidence | y Sl ” x build up a membership representative| | 4 a coms eyes dee-nay se pray,” is the % - ps and published statements indicates roper way to tella Frenchman © of their great state and make it a é! 7 prop iy te si %) that the regents have held over Ladd 8} t vak when dinner is %: power in the land.
