DRAFT MAY COME TOMORROW.

The young men who registered on
June 5th will be much interested in
the army draft which is expected
might come tomorrow. Those in Au-
dubon county who registered will be
able to learn who the men are if they
will secure a copy of last weeks Re-
publican in which the official num-
bers, names and addresses were pub
lished. Get copy of the paper and
when the numbers are made public
you will be able to learn positively
who the men are that will be drafted
from this county. If you have mis-
placed your copy of the Republican,
call at the office for another one.
The drawing will probably take
place at the capitol in Washington.
and it is expected that the drawing
will be completed in an hour. AS
soon as the draft has been made and
word reaches Audubon, the Republi-
can will post a bulletin giving the
numbers and the names drawn. Make
this office your headquarters for in

SCHOOL CONSOLIDATION FAILS

A special election was held in Gray
and the outside district surrounding
the town, which was embraced in a
territory to compose a consolidated
district, yesterday. 1t was proposed
to establish a district and vote bonds
for the erection of an adequate school
building whereby the school children
could all attend school that would
be more centrally located and where
facilities would be more in keeping
with The times than is possible under
the old plan.
The proposition was overwhelming
ly defeated. In the incorporated dis
trict, which included the independ-
ent Gray district 10 votes were cast
in favor of the proposition and IL
against. In the district outside z
votes were cast for it and 90 against.
The total vote Was 26 for and the
vote against 107. ,r
A new law with reference to the
consolidation of rural schools went
into effect July 4th, and under that
law it will be almost impossible for
the consolidation of schools to take
place. However, the election at
Gray yesterday came under the old
law, which was less stringent.
This school question has been agi-
tated in and about Gray for several
years. Many of the people in that
section are DESTROYS of securing bet
ter educational facilities and it was
hoped that the people of the district
would find relief in adopting the con-
solidated plan. 1t is quite likely,
however. if the people of the district
had understood the matter more thor
oughly the proposition would have
carried. With the tremendous vote
against it, the matter will rest for at
least two years.

GERMAN WAR
SUMMARY

Berlin, (via London). May L.
british Admiralty Per Wireless
Press. Follow German Official, Day.
The war office communication dealing
with the fighting in France, as issued
today. says:
after the failure Of their great at
tack Saturday. the English yesterday
only made local attacks against Oppy
and north of the road from Douai to
Arras. In a four-times repeated as
sault against the holly contested for
village. they exhausted their forces
and the village remained in u
hands. On both sides of the Scarpe
the strong artillery fighting continues.
"A careful estimate puts the losses
of the English Saturday at over 5000
men who fell in and before our posi-
tions. in addition to which over 1000
prisoners and forty. machine guns
We're brought in by US. Ten tanks
were destroyed.
Powerful French reconnaissances
were attempted yesterday morning to
establish the success of the French
our positions near Berry-Au-Bac, on
the Brimont plateau and north of
Rheims. The occupants of our trench
es repulsed these attacks. From mid
day the artillery engagement from
scissors to Suippes again increased
with very few intervals, reaching its
greatest intensity during the evening
hours. It continued with varying
strength during the night. but with
the break OF day increased to its
strongest effect.
Saturday on the westeren front the
enemy lost eleven airrlanes and Sun
