Washington COUNTY
FIRST DRAFT NUMBERS

Below are 200 names. These two
hundred names are those in Wash
;ngton County who must answer the
first draft call, and go to make I'm the
1000 members of the first draft
army.
Since Washington county's quota
ia rs men, the first rs men in this list
who qualify, and are not excused on
account of dependents, physical disa-
bilitv or other reason, will be the
ones from this county
The War Department has announ-
red that twice the number called must
answer the first call, in order to pro-
vide for exemptions-that means 152
men will be called before the exemp-
ton board. and before the examin-
ing board.
The list below gives the first two
hundred, in the order drawn, and it is
supposed that the first IS will easily
qualify from this number. 1t Is un-
derstood that one-third of the men
are to report on August 5th, one-thrd
on August 9Th, and one-third on Aug
ust 18th.
Every person registered in the
county has place on the draft list,
and their numbers were drawn Fri
day and Saturday but in order to avoid
as much confusion and clear up the
matter as much as possible. the first
two hundred drawn are given here.
If by any chance, and it seems impos-
sible. these two hundred should be
exhausted before the county's quota
of rs qualified. the next in order would
report. 1t is very remote possibi-
lity that all on this list will be draf
ted on the first call. Numbers drawn
below this list will be subject to the
second call then the third call. and
80 on. No call has been made except
for the county's quota of rs.
Following is the first 200, given IN
the order drawn, with the name and
address:

But Tacoma working men, If you abhor the
idea of importing drOves of these 10-cents- a-day
boys, speak out! Don't wait for somebody to do
it for you. Don't expect the other papers to agi-
tate it; they won't. Don't imagine that because
