The last report of county exemption boards came in at noon, and the high number for this state immediately was wired Washington. That number is 4332, and is owned by a Cass county citizen who regis- tered in Minnesota. Incidentally it is the only “4332” in North Dakota, as no other county's serially numbered cards reach that total, and there is conferred on this Cass county regis- trant a unique distinction. When all states have wired to Wash- ington their highest numbers, cards correspoAdingly numbered will be{ COAL SHORTAGE [5 THREATENED IN NORTHWEST Minneapolis,, Minn., July 13.—The seriousness of the coal shortage situ- ation in the northwest was set forth by the Minneapolis ©: and Com- merce association today in telegrams to President Wilson, Howard Elliott of the council of national defense, and Minnesota senators and representa- tives, with the appeal that immediate action be forthcoming trom Washing- ton. The telegrams represent the initial action of a movement expected to be followed out by commercial bodies of Minnesota, North and South Dakota, and Montana to seek action to avert a “THE WITCHING HOUR” 2 dumped into an old-fashioned jury wheel, and the drafting will begin. As each card is drawn it will be report- ed to registration headquarters in each state, and the man whose number that card bears in each county will be listed for possible selection. From the total number drafted after all ex- emptions have been allowed will fi- nally be selected Uncle Sam's first “selective service” army. of 500,000 After a man’s name is drawn, his chances of finally being drafted are about one in three, but a list of eligi- bles ‘not selected for the first draft will be kept for future reference. Population Estimate The July estimate of the bureau of the census upon which North Dakta’s draft quota will be based, gives the state 706,992 people, as compared with a federal enumeration of 577,156 in 1910, and a state estimate of 636,956 in 1915. The lastvestimate of the na- tional bureau of the. census gave: ‘North Dakota_ 750,260. The July’ 1 estimate is arrived at by: dividing: 9,659,882, ‘the:.total registra-: tion of continental United States, ex- clusive of Alaska, as heretofore esti- mated at 103,635,300, in order to ob- tain the proportion of registrants to total population. The resulting figure, 9.32 per cent, was assumed to repre- sent the proportion which the regis- trants in each geographical unit rep- fenented of the total population there- On this basis, the bureau of the cen- sus gives Burleigh county a popula- tion of 19,142, as against 14,157, Sec- retary of State Hall’s 1915 estimate, and 13,087, the census bureau's 1910 enumeration. Cass county is shown to pared with 40,436 in 1915, and 33,935 in 1919: Grand Forks is given 30,418 people, as against 28,658 in 1915 and 27,888 in 1910, McHenry is giyen a decrease, 15,182 as against 16,960 in 1915 and 17,627 in 1910. Bottineau is in the same case, with 16,773 people, as against 17,387 in 1915 and 17,295 in 1910. Mountrail, with 18,948 people as compared with 11,135, in 1915, 8,491 in 1910, is given the ‘biggest in- crease. A majority of the small coun- ties range on a close level with the secretary of state’s 1915 estimates. FEDERAL PAY BEGINS SUNDAY; BOYS IN TOWN MAY SLEEP AT HOME Federal pay for troops of the First day. From that date until discharg- ed, the First will be in federal ser- vice. The boys will be expected to report at company stations every day who reside in town may sleep at home, a very convenient arrangement, inasmuch as there_are not sufficient blankets to bunk ll of the guards- men in their armories. It is regarded .as probable that the companie’: ‘will Premain: on! duty: ica their home'istations for. at least. twa weeks.
