WILL BOARD CONFIRM
THE EXEMPTIONS?

Fairfield, Sept. S.-Will the district
board confirm the exemption as
allowed by the local board is now puz-
ling the heads of number of Jeffer.
son county young men and there seems
to be no set rule to go by. A number
of exemptions have been granted in
the past few days by the Jefferson
county board. some few for physical
disability, others for, dependents and in
one Of two cases it was found that the
young men had already been assigned
in some branch of the service.
The local board is now awaiting
news from the district board before the
members can go ahead and fix the
twenty-nine young men who are to 90
to camp on September 10 from this
county.

NO CHANGES IN
HEDDEN'S ACTIONS

Mt. Pleasant, Sept. S.-There are nc
new developments in the case of Clar
ence Hedden, charged with the murder
of Raymond Matthews. Sunday at
Wesley chapel. ~
He remains in his cell and has not
referred to the murder in any way
whatever. That he is insane or a
mighty skilled impersonator of one
mentally irresponsible is admitted by
those in charge of him. There is no
doubt that his defense, if the case ever
gets to trial will be that Of insanity.
Unless he is postmaster of feigning,
he is rapidly developing maniacal ten
denotes. being in disturbed state of
mind and showing signs Of violence.
No opportunity will be afforded for
self-destruction.
Word came to the sheriff Monday
night that there was considerable talk
Of lynching bee. Chafacteristically
he said nothing and apparently did
nothing, but just the same when the
shades OF night settled over the jail
preparations had been made to sternly
uphold the dignity Of the law in
Henry county. AS long as he would
have been able to shoot Sheriff Shep-
herd would never have given up his
prisoner.

WAR GOVERNOR IN
1861 HAD TROUBLES

Iowa City, Sept. S.-When there
were threats of opposition of the draft
in Iowa in 1863 Governor Kirkwood
left no doubt in peoples minds as to
the stand he would take. In Septem.
Der of that year. says the writer Of a
biography about to be published by the
State Historical Society, he made a
speech in community where disloyal
sentiments had been many times ex-
pressed. "You remember" said the
governor, "thatfthe draft commenced
in New York the other day and mob
was raised to stop it, and threats have
been made that the same thing would
be done here. wanted to talk here
just long enough to tell you that 1t will
be very bad thing to start mob
here in opposition to the draft. 1t is
for your own interest that no mob IS
started here. I tell you will see to
it that any mob that is started shall
be put down for you! You see that
am not only plain-looking man, but
plain speaking man; and intend
to speak plainly" He told the people
how he had put down an uprising in
lKeokuk county by the use of troops.
"And tell you." he said, "if it be-
comes necessary, for me to come here
on the same errand shall not bring
blank cartridge here"

old Macrae. and embraces twelve sur.
geons and physicians. besides the
