Master lists of registration numbers
drawn in the recent lottery at Wash
ington reached the capital today. 1t
Is. anticipated that each of the county
exemption boards will have received
it's lists by tomorrow night, and that
calls for the first drafts will begin 60
ing out Tuesday. Twice the number
of each cOunty's quota will be called
in three sections, to report on three
successive days. In the entire state
11,212 men will be summoned, the
states net quota for the draft being
5,6G6. In Burleigh county it is prob
able $50 men will be requested to re-
port, and of this number approximate.
ly $50 will be selected for service.
The master lists contain all of the
numbers drawn from 1 to 1O,5OO, and
in the exact number drawn. Each
county exemption board upon receipt
of these lists must cross off all num-
bers not applying to it's district. The
highest number in the state Wl,i be
1892, held by Cass county man. The
highest in Burleigh county Is under
1900.
Numbers Far Apart
The first number appearing on the
master list is 25S, which will apply
to practically every county in North
Dakota. The next number, 1922, will
apply only to Cass, Grand Forks and
Ward counties, and the third number,
9613, catches no one in North Dakota.
The second number on the list apply
ing to Rurleigh county, d5S, comes
sixth in the order drawn, and Bur
leigh is not again affected until the
eleventh number, 1886, is reached.
Eurlcigh's fourth number, S54, comes
18th on the master list.
This task of checking off names
will consume considerable time, as
practically the entire list must be
gone over to find and arrange in Or
der all of the numbers which will ap-
ply to Burleigh county ultimately. OF
the approximately 1900 numbers
drawn for this county, not more than
$50, the first in order, probably will
be Immediately summoned. Holders
of numbers drawn far down the list
need not fear call from the board
until the second quota is ordered
drafted.

LIQUOR CONTROL BOARD
UNTIL AFTER THE WAR
By KENNETH w. PAYNE.

r, London, July 27.-One Of the really
constructive lessons FOR Amarita. fur.
-niyhed by Britain's wartime expert
ence lies in the way the liquor prob
lem has been handled in England.
England stands today with one foot
on the water wagon and seems to be
slowly climbing to IN even more SO.
cure posture thereon. The nation has
been INDUCED to- this step without
shock, witl9Yt violent opposition, and
in fact, alnIpst without knowing''it.
'rhs central control board for liquor
traffic here in England, has just sub
mitted a report on.thc extraordinary
success which has followed the Bri
lish policy of treating the liquor cues
tion as a distinct problem by itself,
and not saddling it onto other prob
lens.
Cut HaIf.
In 1913 the convictions for drunken
ness in the boards area in England
and Wales-which include nine-tenths
of the population Of the country-to-
tailed over 100000. In 1916, as re.
suit Of the system of liquor control,
they had been more than cut in half.
The total convictions were S0,159,
with a weekly average of ,544. The
progressive effect Of liquor
control regulations is shown by the
fact that for the period of 1917 to
May, 20 this weekly average had been
further. reduced to ! ,O39.
In an interview today for The Trib-
une Lord DAbernon, chairman of the
central control board for liquor traffic,
explained the liquor situation in Eng
land.
1T has been the first attempt to
deal with the liquor problem on scjen
tile lines" Lord DAbcrnon said. "Our
methods were in mlny respects quite
novel. We have had no desire to i'm
pose hardships on the trade, and our
restrictions were decided upon rnly
after careful consideration and consul
tation with the local authorities.
The first restriction was the
limiting Of hours in which liquor
might be sold to meal times. This
means three hours in the evening,
two and a half at midday, and a
somewhat shorter period on Sun.
days.
"The result has been highly bene-
ficial to the health of the consumer.
1t has prevented men hanging around
saloons all through the day. 1t has
checked habits such as early morning
drinking, and has greatly improved
the conditions of labor in the public
houses.
New Departure.
"Another new departure was the
compulsory dilution Of spirits. The
previous law enacted that spirits must
be strong-strOnger than speclhed
number of degrees under proof. Our
new regulation makes them weak. The
practice of drinking spirits neat pre-
walls widely in the north, and work
ers there cannot now poison them
selves with this fiery liquor as they
formerly did.
"The abolition Of treating has
been another novel and most sue
cessfuI act. This had become an
onerous social custom from which
drinkers themselves were glad to
be freed.
Things have reached the point
where men working in squads had to
stand drinks all around the squad be-
fore they could take their wages

y STRENGTHEN GOVERNMENT

%STRENGTJEN~G N~GONEHNMENIsJ
Washington, ID. C., July 27.-The
Russian military reserves have
strengthened the hands of the govern
ment from Petrograd, according to a
dispatch from Ambassador Francis of
the state department.. They have
shown the impossibility Of control of
the armies by soldiers committee,
the ambassador reports, and have led
to a universal demand for stronger
discipline.
The ambassador reported that the
military crisis at the 'front.' has caused
the deepest alarm in Petrograd, not
only as to severe military disaster,
but as to achievement of the revOlu-
ton itself. All parties are united, he
said, in urging the government to use
any measures necessary to meet the
situation.
Issue Statement.
Dispatches to the Russian embassy
confirm this point of vieW and show
many conservative leaders recently
gone out of office are now coming to
the front.
! At the same time unrest among
the RolshHviki and the Red Guard are
continuing. Five more leaders were
taken into custody the day before yes
terday, and many others are under
surveillance. The council of work
mems and soldiers delegates has is
sued appeals to different sections of
the community citing the danger of
the situation, and supporting dictator
ial powers to make the resolution of
the revolution safe.
Fear Food Riots.
Fears of food riots which generally
precipitated the riot in Petrograd,
leading to the revolution, are dis
PEELED, the dispatches add. by reports
of splendid harvest from all over Rus
sia. The Galican military defeat was
explained by one grenadier division
of from $4,000 to 2O,J0O men, which
opened up the front to the Germans,
which allowed them to drive in a
wedge 20 miles deep, which necessi-
tated the retreat of the whole of Gen.
Korniloff's forces of 100000 men.
Hold Germans Up.
Heroic defense of the cavalry d.
vision alone, held the Germans up a
few hours before Tarnopol, permitting
the escape of the defending infantry
and the destruction of the munitions
stored Meanwhile the Russian at
tempts in the KrevO-Smolgon front is
reported as continuing with three Ger
man regiments brought down from
the Wilma front annihilated.
Reports that negotiations are unde,
way for sending American troops to
Russia are 1atly contradicted here,
where it is said that Russia has more
men than she knows what to do with
great possibility lies in
sending supplies to Russia, especially
railroad material.

Speaking of California big trees. in
the mountains south of San Francisco
near the Pacific ocean, brings to mind
the fact that there are many things
written and spoken about to which
the ordinary human mind lends but
little credence What will the average
Henderson county reader think when
he is told that these trees are some
365 feet high, &c feet through and are
from five to six thousand years old.
One of the trees recently. became hol-
low and fell to the grounds and a
room has been squared in the hollow
in which ten people can comfortably
enter and be seated The writer saw
these trees. but does not know their
age, nor even their height, but a man
by the name of "Jungck," who claim
ed to be cOlonizer and said he lived
on Shattuck avenue in. San Francisco
vouched for the age and height of the
trees. Pieces of the bark was lying
around dressed and was about II
inches thick, which to any reasonable
mind would indicate that it came
from a very large tree.
Leaving the trees, a run of about
three hours lands you in the city of
earthquakes and the fires of 1906,
which city was originally founded by
the Franciscan fathers, in 1776, and
has the largest harbor on the Paci-
fic coast. II is called the city of the
Golden Gate and is in many respects
one of the most wonderful places in
the world, being situate between the
bay and the Pacific ocean, the main
San Francisco bay being led to the
ocean by what is called the Golden
Gate.

to know about San Francisco that you
do not already know by way of gen
eral information? Well, it claims to
have 100000 population-Market

is seven miles 1ong-it claims to have
thirty-fve parks; it has Chinatown
of 10000 Chinese inhabitants; it has
thirty-five miles of water front, large
