WAR CHANGES IN
 C. OF C. CABINET
(Erom Fridays Ds;i-.)

Changes in the cabinet of the cham Der of commerce have been made necessary by the war. Announce ment was made at a meeting last night that George w. Nilsson, cham pion member-getter has been named chairman of the membership com- mittee, to succeed Dr. H. T. South worth, who has been called to the colors.
 Nilsson has handed in more mem bership applications than any other two members of the organization. His selection by President Haworth for this important post is considered quite justified by the work he has done
 R. x. Frcdericks, who has been holding down the job of chairman ot the military affairs committee, was confirmed in that office last night He succeeds Captain E. ]. Mitchell, who is at the Presidio.
 George Scheerer, county farm ad- visor. has been added to the commit tee on agriculture and animal hus- bandry. His frequent trips all over the county in the interests of scien- tifc agriculture, make him a proper member of that committee.

MINER COMPLAINS
 OF DISCRIMINATION
(From Saturdays Daily.)


 K. w. Shaw, practical miner, has a hunch that he has been discriminated against Acting on the hunch, he has filed suit in the Superior court, nam ing the Empire-Arizona Copper Com pany and the kmpire-Arizona Con- solidated Copper Company as the de- fendants. The amount of the suit which is for wages-is $2lS29 and costs.
 Between the first of April and the last Of May this year, Shaw and a miner named w. H. Tate were em- ployed by the company to dig a shaft about l2 miles north of Parker. They were to receive SIP a foot for this work, and were to be paid bi-monthly with a modicum of their earnings held out until the job was finished. Then, says the complaint, the work was performed and finished, and at the end of the time required, the com pany paid to Tate his S21S.2o, back salary. To the plaintiff, however, the company paid nothing. All he got for his labor, apparently, was the bi- monthly wage. For this oversight, plaintiff believest here is no excuse, for he asked for his money in due and legal form.
 A. H. Favour represents the plain tiff.

EXPECT SECOND CALL ID BE
 OCTOBER 1
WHEN REGULAR UNITS AND FIRST INCREMENT OF THE WAR ARMY ARE FILLED, DIR A F T WILL BE REPEATED.
(From Fridays Daily.)


 The 5000 men just called to the colors under the draft law are to be followed by 50000 more to be sum- moned for training before the end of the present year. The call for the secoond increment of 500,00O in all probability will go out from the first to the middle of next October.
 Exemptions granted in connection with the first call will not necessarily apply to the second draft. The men excused from the first draft must be prepared to demonstrate that the req sons still hold good why they should not take up arms.
 No new drawing of numbers at Washington to designate the order in which the second army will be called is necessary, the government in sum- moning the second national army will start exactly where it left off in com pleting the call for the first 6S7 900. The men will be called for eXamina- ton and either ordered to the train ing camp or be excused exactly in the priority in which the black capsuled numbers were drawn last Friday, eX- cept, of course, for the elimination of those numbers held by the men taken into the service in connection with the first call.
 Of the 6S7 ,0OO called last Friday, the first lS7, GOO selected after the physical examination and the exemption pro- cesses have been complied with will be assigned to places in the national guard and the regular army to fill those units of the military establish ment to required strength. The re- mainder, or 50O,0O0, will follow along as members of the new national army. Notwithstanding reports to the con- trary, war department officials insist that the 500,000 would be in the vari- ous cantonments and hard at training by September 18th. The men utilized to fill up the regular army and the national guard will be sent to the des- ignated units as rapidly as the pro- cesses of the draft are completed.
 The decision to at once pave the way for the calling out of a second army of 5OO,OOO is a direct reflection of the official attitude toward the re- cent developments in Germany. Out of all the talk of peace in the German reichstag there has developed, officials now know, a complete victory for the military autocracy and determina- ton on the part of the German war lords to carry on the war even more desperately and, if possible, with a magnified display of ruthlessncss and savagery. The only possible answer, officials in this country are unit in declaring, is for the United States to rush war preparations to the very limit ot the resources or the country, in man power as we'll as in money and equipment of all kinds.
 In justice to the 1OO00,OOO enrolled for military service the government officials in charge of the draft will see to it that there is no loose con struction of the exemption regula tions. The local boards have been impressed with the vital necessity of strict conformation with the letter as well as the spirit of the draft law The government wants justice done in every case, but this justice must be administered in an even-handed and absolutely impartial manner.

Irregular Numbers.

The following numbers were pub lished as being drawn among the first 900 odd, included in the Journal Miners first report. Comparison with a mailed list of draft numbers in order discloses the fact they were drawn much further down the line than was indicated by the first publi- cation.
 As an instance, the wire carried the number 1853. The name of the man carrying that number was inserted in order As a matter of fact, the num- Der drawn in that position was l0053, not owned by any man in this county. The number 1853, however, will be found some distance down the order of liability And so in all the follow ing cases:

Topeka Merchants Plan To Cut
Out All Free Deliveries?
Secretary of Association Urges
Starting of New Campaign.
ONE-A-DAY SYSTEM SUCCESS
1t Was Easy TO "Pull Over
Business Men Are Told.
New Plan Would Make All De-
liveries Cost Consumer.

Intimation that a movement is un-
der way. to initiate a no-free-delivery
system in Topeka is contained in let
ter mailed out~today to members of
the Merchants' association by its sec
rotary. In the letter Secretary Trap
makes a report of the one-free- deliv
cry a day system propaganda carried
to such a successful conclusion in To-
peka recently.
THE ease with which the new
movement has been pulled over shows
the merchants that it will be a small
matter to educate the public to pay
ing for all deliveries and thus do away
with serious loss. Lets make the
next move early in the fall
The one-free-delivery a day plan
was inaugurated by Topeka merchants
following the receipt of letters from
the national council of defense advis-
ing theN merchants. to cut down their
deliveries in order to reduce overhead
expenses and thus do away, in a small
probably imperceptible, manner, with
the high cost of living. The mer-
chants. took kindly to the plan and
the one-f ree-delivery a day has been
in vogue in Topeka for several weeks.
No Style Reduction.
In the same letters, the government
asked for suggestions from merchants
as to whether a reduction of style
seasons wouldn't cause a like reduc-
ton in the high cost of living. As yet
apparently there has been no attempt
either by the government or mer-
chants to inaugurate a reduction in
the number of style systems in To-
peka.
In inaugurating the one-free-deliv-
cry day plan an extensive publicity
campaign has been waged by the sec
rotary. Prizes We're offered to chill

cry" Nearly a hundred essays have

In reporting the work done in the
campaign, the secretary speaks of the
high price of paper and the cost that
free space, such as was given in the
one-free-delivery day plan. is to the
newspapers.
The newspapers of Topeka" he
writes, ARE just as hard hit by high
prices as other lines. The only thing
they have to sell is space and when
they donate space they donate money.
And more, without them we could not
get the public to see the righteousness
of curtailing the free delivery"

Oyertures Regardless of Source

Plan Deserves Hearing.
PRESS is WORLD PENDULUM
POpe's Delegate Says 1t Can
Stop or Continue War.
Any Agency Stopping War De-
serves Praise, He Says.

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 2S.-Any
agency, regardless of political, reli-
gious or national affiliation that has
for it's aim the promotion of peace
permanent or temporary-should be
encouraged.
Archbishop Bonzano, apostolic dele
gate, was discussing the Stockholm
Socialist peace conference and the at
titude of various nations in refusing
passports to delegates, when he made
the above statement.
mo matter from whom or what
quarters peace talk may come, it is
most welcome to the holy father"
the apostolic delegate said. Amy
agency seeking to end the internecine
strife that is drenching the world with
blood of nations should be given a
hearing.
Peace First Importance.
THE holy see does not desire any
monopoly of the credit for securing
peace. In his first duplication to the
belligerents. the holy father made IT
clear that cessation of war, not the
terms or determining facters-was of
first Importance"
One of the most powerful agencies
in either encouraging or discouraglng
peace, in the opinion of the arch
bishop, is the press.
The majority of the peoples of all
countries are guided by the press;
public opinion is moulded thru the
printed page" the delegate declared.
And any agency which aids in
Fastening the day when peace shall
come, is to be commended highly"
Has Hope for Future.
While the delegate refused to view
optimistically the aftermath of the
war, he looks into the future with
hope rather than apprehension
THE holyN father and all hope for
religious regeneration" he said. II
am not a politician; not diplomat.
OF political, industrial and economic
conditions 1 could not even hazard an
assumption"
Archbishop Bonzano today is on his
way to Washington. He has been at
tending the sixteenth annual conven-
ton of the american Federation OF
Catholic Societies in session here.
