Ashland, Wis, June 4.—Fear that the Knights of Liberty would do him violence, it is alleged, caused Emil Kunze, driver for a local agency of « brewing company, to quit his jcb an” leave the city. About midnight he appeared at police headquarters anc asked that he be permitted to sleep at the jail. He said he had heard al- leged “knights” talking outside his door as to the advisability of tarrine and feathering him because he was al leged to be pro-German. William Landraint. a recent victim of the “tar and feather squad,” yes: terday appealed to the chief of police for protection because of a letter he is said to have received from Knights of Liberty. Chief Blair stated that Landraint is being kept in sight by police. ) ae eee UNVESTIGATE TAX RETURNS.

SIGN UP FOR SERVICE Machinery in Readiness for the Registration of New Eligi- bles Tomorrow 6,000 MEN FROM THIS STATE Uncle Sam Estimates Number of | Probabilities as 10 Pet. of First Total Washington, June 4.—Machinery for the registration tomorrow of near-) ly a milion youths who have reached 21 years old since June 5 last is now completed and ready for operation, | Provost Marshal General Crowder to- day announced, addressing a message to the 1918 class of registrants, © 6,000 FROM DAKOTA. Uncle ‘Sam is looking to North Da- kota to register 6,000 new select serv- icemen. These are young men who have attained the age of 21 within the last year. The provisions as to registration apply alike to citizens ana aliens, and no class of young men is exempt from the requirement. The war department estimates thar ten per cent of the whole number which registered last year will repre- sent the addition to the class of ten- tative select service men which wil: result from this registration. North Dakota on June 5, 1917, registered 60,- 005 men. It is expected now to reg- ister 6,000 more who were not 21 one year ago. Flickertail military men doubt whether this expectation wil: oe realized. They report that an un- usually large number of North Dako- tans have enlisted as soon as they reach ‘the age of 21. and they esti mate that at least 1,000 have ibeen ta- ken from the state in this way. Registration Needed. Wednesday’s registration is needed to fill the depleted ranks of class one men in many North vakota counties. Recent calls,have cut the class one quotas in some counties down to 2 very thin margin. and but for the re- plenishment which will result fron: Wednesday's signing up of new men, it soan would have been necessary to call on deferred classifications.
