Congressman Johnson Would Draft
The Idlers

Representative Royal c. Johnson
OF South Dakota has introduced a
bill directing the President TO draft
into the military service all able
bodied citizens between the ages OF
20 and SO who cannot prove that they
are engaged in some useful occupa-
tion at least ten months in the year.
In Mr.. Johnson's opinion the passage
of such a measure will put to work
the thousands of men who are not
only slackers from military service,
but who do not render any real good
to society. and are at present large
ly supported by the efforts of others.
The bill has been referred to the
Military Affairs Committee.

CAMP FUNSTON, KAN, SEPT. II, 1917
EDITOR WINsLow MAIL:
So many friends requested a
letter or card when | left Wins
low that it is impossible to write
them all in the limited time we
have, so | am writing you for the
benefit of all those who wanted
to hear from us.
The trip here was a most en-
joyable affair. From Prescott to
our present location we were
cheered everywhere along the
line, even the track WorkersSand
the farmers stopping long enough
to shout a cheer or wave hand.
In all the big places there were
large crowds at the station, and
in many of them they had bands
which made things stir.
At Abilene, Kansas, we had
the good fortune to meet Mr..
Hollister, whom you will remem-
Der managed the Harvey House
in Winslow for some time. 1t
was here we marched through a
portion of the town and made
many late riser stick his head
out of the window.
Junction City is the principal
town in this vicinity, and Fort
Riley is about four miles from
there, and we are about four
miles from Fort Riley, but we
can reach town either by steam
The Winslow mail., 1917-10-05

cars or electric. There are about
As, 600 men here at present, and
more are coming every day.
The first thing required when
arriving at camp sand being as
signed to barracks lis to take
shower bath, and it is possible
to make a very good guess at the
number of men by the yells, as
the water is taken out of the
Kaw river and is more or less
cold, principally cold judging by
my own experience. Then you
are marched into the barracks
and given a suit of underwear, a
shirt, and in our case a pair of
overalls for a uniform. Then we
were assigned to bunk, it is
called, which is a metal cot of
the ordinary kind, and each man
has to keep his outfit in that cot
or the space allowed which is
mostly against the wall. After
being given dinner we were put
to policing, which means to clean
up all the trash or accumulations
in or near the barracks, then it
was roll call and supper. After
supper until 9:45 p. m. we were
at liberty to go anywhere about
the camp, but could not leave
without permission. All lights
are out at 9:45 p. m. promptly.
We are up at $40 a. m. to wash
and dress, at 6 a. m. to answer
roll call, then eat breakfaat, and
at 1880 a. m. march to the parade
ground for drill. Some of the
commands we have learned so
far are, attention, count off,
right, left and about face, and
the salute. This latter has caus-
ed much confusion for the reason
there is so much to learn about
it; how to do it, the right time,
and when and where.
Of course there is more or less
dissatisfaction because this is
such a radical departure from
what most of us have been used
to, which is naturally to be expect
ed, but even at that we are pretty
we'll fixed. There are ten of us
railroad men together, off the
coast lines and the Peavine, and
they are a jolly bunch.
| also want to take advan-
tage of this opportunity to thank
the Red Cross organizations of
WinsloW and Prescott to the ut
most on behalf of the whole
train, for the kindness shown
when we left. Many were the
kindly remarks on the train and
since we have been here regard
ing these good ladies and those
who assisted them in giving us
personal packages, and putting
periodicals and magazines on the
train for the use of all.
Any one whishing to write us
and | can assure you it will be
appreciated should be careful
to get the correct number of the
company and the brigade, be-
cause there is no chance to find
an individual. After the indivi-
dual2name write 32d Co., 164th
Depot Brigade, Camp Funston,
and the letter or package will be
sure to be delivered promptly.
Yours truly,

Proclamation by the Governor.
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT
STATE OF ARIZONA.

STATE OF ARIZONA.
Whereas, 1t is necessary for
the United States to raise, during
this, the first year of our War
with Germany, eighteen and one
half billions of dollars, or about
forty-seven of each one hundred
dollars that we earn;
Whereas, Our Government
must get this astounding amount
either by taxation of the people
or by borrowing from them and
is seeking through the sale of
Liberty Bonds, to obtain a part
of this huge sum with which to
carry on our share of the conflict
and provide means for our allies
to prosecute a fight which must
be won, if world democracy shall
survive;
Now, Therefore, |, Thomas E.
Cambell, Governor sof Arizona,
under the authority in me vested,
do hereby urge upon all those
firms, companies, corporations
and citizens, who are financially
able to bear a share of this
burden, to subscribe as literally
as possible to the second issue Of
Liberty Bonds of the United
States which is offered to the
public, beginning October first,
1917, and would direct special at
tention to the following facts in
regard thereto
We are in this War; we must
win and to do it, the money must
be found.
The more the Government will
allow you to loan to it, the less
you will be taxed; ease taxation
by buying a Liberty Bond.
Money is wasted on unneces-
saries in our Country which, if
loaned to it, might turn the scale
to Victory and save thousands of
precious lives.
Economic and save. EXtrav-
agance must stop.
When you buy a Liberty Bond,
you have what is as good as
money, to borrow on or to sell
and it pays good interest.
Taxes are a dead expense; they
never come back; they pay no
interest. You must be taxed if
you will not buy!
The civilized world is fighting,
that Right may prevail and that
the world be made safe for
honest people to live in. Our
boys are giving their lives; our
allies, their lives and money, land
the least we can do is to support
their efforts.
Do your share. Duty demands
it; common sense advises it and
your Government expects it.
In Witness Whereof, | have
hereunto set my hand caused the
Great Seal of the State of Ari-
zona to be affixed.
Done at Phoenix, the Capital,

The specific charge against McIver is that on Oct. 7 last he became intoxicated when he visited Martinez, Cal, to attend a board meeting. It is all legged that he spent considerable time in saloon on Ferry street in that city, accompanied by his wife. The trustees also charge that he visited other saloons and imbibed so freely that he was plainly intoX- icated.

MADE NEW MAN OF
 ME- SAYS NEWMAN
w.. & A. Engineer Says Tanlac Did Him More
 Good Than Everything
 Else. #

This Tanlac is certainly a rail road mans medicine and that is all there is to it." said w. G. T. New man, a well known W. 6 A. engi- neer.
 "Yes, sir he continued, ''it has simply made new man out of me and I can now mount my engine and feel as young as 1 did when first got my run, and I expect to take it along with me on my en- zine for spme time to come.
 q had been suffering from mean, nagging stomach trouble for ten or twelve years, and Tanlac was the only thing I ever got hold of 1 to give me any relief.
 My doctor said I had acid stom- ach, and I guess he was right be- cause I always had a sour taste in Imy mouth, and was constantly belching up sour gases.
 My digestion was awful and sometimes my food just seemed to | then gas would form and I would have a full, bloated feeling that would last for hours. Sometimes my stomach would swell up so l could hardly get my breath. At other times I would have pains ill my back over my kidneys that would almost bend me double.
 q was tired and worn out most all the time and was so nervous l would alTfost scream, and was easi- ly fretted. Then again I would have headaehes and felt sore all over.
 "Ibbought Tanlac because of the high testimonials of my railroad friends, and I can understand now why they all allowed their names to be published. I think it is medicine that everybody should know about, because it has done me more good than every other med icine I have taken put together
 My appetite is good onw and everything I eat agrees with me. l am not nervous any more either and can take more interest in cv- erything. That's what this medi- cine has done for me-"
 MT. Newman, who made the above statement, has been an engineer on the w. & A. railroad between At lanta and Dalton for the past twelve years, and his hundreds of friends all along that division, and at his home in Dalton, will be glad to hear of his complete restoration to health.
 Tanlac is sold in Paragould by IIardesty X Lackey and in Marma- duke by Marmaduke Pharmacy.
