MAY GUST SLATTERY

The Cincinnati Enquirer says: AS
might be surmised, the Beckham-
Haly adherents are very jubliant over
the step the junior Senator has made
on the road for patronage, and out of
their camp comes the report that the
next to go will be Judge John Hughes,
who is Collector in the Danville dis
trict. Some say that Colonel Robert
G Evans, of Danville, is to have this
post, while others aver that the Sew
enth and Eighth Districts will be COM
bined and placed under General Haly.
Collector Scott Mayes. they say, is to
remain at Louisville, while Charlton
Thompson, at Covington, and Josh
Griffith, at Greensboro, are to be undis-
turbed. Both Thompson and Griffith
are said to be acceptable to Beckham,
and some of his followers are declar-
ing that when he comes up for renom-
inatino in 1920 they will be on his
SIDE
In Judge Walter Evans district
there is to be no change, say the Beck
hamites, in the offices of United States
Marshal Edgar H. James and District
Attorney Perry B. Miller, but they in.
sist that Henry M. Cox, former State
Prison Agent, is to succeed Colonel
Robert c. Ford as Marshal in Judge
A. M. j. COchran's district, and that
Elwood Hamilton, of Frankfort, Ky.
former member Of the General As.
sembly, Is to take the place of Dis.
trict Attorney Thomas d. Slattery, o.
Maysville.
If the prophecies are correct and al
these changes are made 1t will presen
most interesting situation, especial
ly so if 1t transpires that Senator
James next year will have no opposi
ton from the dry side the Democrat,
household for denomination. 1t ha,
been stated that Messrs. Beckham ant
Haly are strong enough to keep dr.
opposition off any wet man of theil
choosing, and 1t would be interesting
to know whether or not this is true.

Of review also will be established or

will be composed of civilians. Secre

General Crowder said that only con

5,s72, 400 SINGLE, 4,545,9OO MARRIED
OF MEN WHO COME WITHIN
THE MILITARY DRAFT
AGE LIMIT

Washington, May 26-By a census
bureau estimate today classifying the
more than 100000 men within the
military draft age limit, the number Of
single men is placed at 5,S72, 400 and
the number of married men at 4,545,-
800.
The estimate was prepared on a
basis of a normal increase in popula-
ton since the 1910 census and on the
assumption that the ratio between
married and single men is the same
az at that time.
The classification by chief occupa-
tons is given as follows:
Agriculture, forestry and animal
husbandry, 2,S64,OOO; manufacturing
and mechanical industries, 3,0S6, 900 !;
no gainful occupations, 500,5O0; trans
portation, $4,000; trade, 1,054,OOO;
public service, $4,000; domestic and
personal service, 441,OOO; profession
al service S35,OOO; clerical occupa-
tons, 374,OOO; extraction OF minerals,
$4,000.
The government, 1t has been stated
will not exempt any particular classes
of industry from CONSUMPTION, but will
deal with cases individually. mar
viduals, however, whose work is con-
sidered necessary to preserve an eco
nomic balance, will be exempted
Nearly every line of industry, it is
said, has appealed to the War depart
ment for exemption for its workers.
Some few classifcations are not in
cluded in the figures.
