RECRUITING DRIVE
FOR WEEKS END
IMPERIAL LAGS BEHIND IN THE
CAMPAIGN.
WORK FOR THE ARMY
OFFICER SUGGESTS
SPECIAL DAY.
Can Get Buglers and Company of Sol
diers From CalexicO for Demon
stratiOn and Drive Saturday.

Having already earned the reputa-
ton of sending more recruits to tn,
regular army and navy in proportion
TO the allotment than any other coun-
ty in the state, Imperial is rather in
clined to rest on her laurels in the
campaign this week of getting re
cruits for the several branches of the
Fighting forces.
No organized effort has yet been
made here to assist this regular army
officers during this special week Of
recruiting. The Imperial quota fol
the Red Cross is not yet raised and
ghe efforts of the patriotic are still
directed along that channel, and until
the $4,000 is raised no organized
recruiting campaign will be con-
faenced.
However. this county is doing BET
ter than some states. Dispatches to-
Gay show that many states did not
send recruit to the army. Fred A
Murphy, in charge of the local re-
cruiting office, has enlisted an aver
age of one man every day this week
Yesterday he sent Wilfred Johnston
Of Holtville, first class fighting
man, to the colors. Wilfred is 23
years old, weighs 1856 pounds anil
stands six feet in his stockings. HI
chose the field artillery branch of the
service and was sent to the San Ber
nardino concentration camp last night
District Attorney Nichols, chairman
of the County Council CT Defense, has
received letter from the state coun-
eli, urging the local officers to lend
heir aid to the recruiting campaign
Recruiting Officer Murphy suggests
that Saturday be made recruiting day
in El Centro. He is promised threa
bug,ers from CaleXico and company
Of soldiers for a parade and demon
stration. Several young women have
promised to help in the work and plans
are now being laid for a recruiting
drive on the last day of the week
Imperial should furnish fifty recruits
for the regular army. Enlistments
are only for the duration of the war
After peace is declared men recruit
ing now will be discharged Regis
tration is no bar to enlistment, the
recruiting officer points out.
The recruiting station is at $50
claim street.

Washington, June 28.-Industrial
Workers of the World are at the bot

ing used against their brethren in the
Fatherland. Particular reference was
made to the strikes in Bisbee, Dou

ator stated he had knowledge of the
workings of several bands of l. w.

Leaping from the very jaws of death
IN the swirling waters of the angry

Irience of Mrs. Tom Harp of Winter

Mrs. Harp was driving the family

was about to pass under the north end
Of the Southern Pacific railroad bridge
al Yuma, where the edge of the rag
ing Colorado was already splashing in
the roadway, she was warned of her
Ioanger by a bridge patrolman. She
Eesitated and attempted to back the
machine and turn around. The brake
refused to operate and the car dashed
backward into the flying current, just
as she miraculously jumped. AS it was,
she landed in the edge of the water.
and saw her car plunge beneath the
stream, as it turned over and over

cne's hair gray in the twinkling OF

story afterward with a composure
which was really remarkable.
| All efforts to locate the car with
grab hooks and other appliances have
been of no avail. The river few
feet from the road at the time was
very deep, and it is probable the cur

be in the Gulf of Mexico by this time

sheriff to rid the county of bootleg
gers and blind pigs. The good work
will go on until this variety of of
tenders will be as scarce in this coun-
ty as German flags. At least, that is
the aim of the sheriff's office.
The booze and the brew were
brought into the Mexican camp at
night few days ago. Trace of its
passage from freight cars here was
gained by the deputies and the hiding

soon learned.

DRAFT WILL TAKE

OFFICIALS IN CHARGE
PROVIDED EXCEPT
ACTUAL METHOD OF DRAFT.
Numbers Will Then BE Returned to
the Various Districts and Com
pared With the Lists.

Washington, June 28.-Regulations
for drafting the new national army,
now awaiting President Wilson appro-
val, contain provision for every step
in the great undertaking, except the
actual method of the draft itself. No
official announcement has been made
and official confirmation is being
withheld, but it has been stated ami
generally is accepted here as true that
the government itself will do the draft
iag, probably here in Washington, so
there will be no opportunity for To-
al favoritisms, political or otherwise.
As the regulations stand now, every
registered man has number. The
aumbers will be forwarded to Wash
ington and the drawing will be en-
tirely by number. Teh identity OF
the numbered men will be unknown to
those in charge of the draft machin-
cry and can be established only By
comparing a number with a printed
list in the mans home district.
AS the numbers are drawn, they will
be telegraphed to the home districts,
where the registered men will learn
if they have been drafted. Then the
Question of exemptions will come up
and this will go before the local boards.
If a man is exempted the man bear
ing the number which was drawn next
in order will axe his place, and so
on. In this way, al Those available
for service out of the ten million who
registered will be made ready for the
country's call and from them the first
increment of 625, 900 will be assembled,
The others will be called as the need
develops as the war goes on. Plenty
of times swill be given for drafted men
70 arrange their personal affairs and
report to the cantonmeht camps. 1t
is hoped to have them all in training
by September l or very soon there
after.

Washington, June 2S.-The fight be-
tween the wet and dry forces of the
nation over the prohibition amend
nent to the administration food bill
has overshadowed in interest every
OF her war measure which is now or has
been introduced.
Distillers and brewers, on the one
hand, and the dry forces of the coun-
Try, on the other, are marshaling their
forces to aid or prevent the passage
OF the amendment.
Senators state that nothing in years
has aroused such intense interest and
promiscuous lobbying. Floods of tele-
grams are coming in upon the Senate
committee from farmers all over the
country who have planted barley with
the expectation of selling it to the
brewers Labor unions have also bonn
tarded the committee with kilograms
saying that there would be a great
loss of employment if the breweries
and distilleries are closed. Municipal
authorities also point to a loss in reve-
rues if the dry measure passes.
The prohibition forces are also. busy
pointing out the great saving of grain
for food, the greatest need OF the
war; the good effect on the health Of
the nation, and the moral and religious
gain.

Baker, Ore, June 2S.-Several lives,
are reported lost and millions in prop
orty and growing crops were destroyed
today when a fifty-foot dam at Killa-
rlous lake, fifteen miles from this city,
turst.
The town of Rock Creek, containing
several hundred people, is reported
swept entirely away. Communication
with the region flooded is cut off and
the exact number of lives lost is un-
known.
The raging waters swept down the
mountain side, carrying barns, farm
houses and cattle down the valley. A
wall of water eight feet high swept
all before it and prosperous farm
ing community was practically swept
bare Of vegetation after the crest OF
the flood had passed.
Residents of the stricken district
who escaped the flood are hurrying
to higher ground, carrying what eff
fects they could hastily gather before
the rush of waters warned them Of
their peril.
The town of Haines is in the path
OF the flood and fears are entertained
for the safety of the people there.
Most of the inhabitants have crowded
the highways in an endeavor to get
out of the path of the threatening
flood.
Rains in the mountains were the
cause of the bursting of the dam.
Along the entire path of the rush
ing waters people are fleeing. Several
ranches are flooded. The district is
highly productive in grain and hay.
The dam belongs to the Eastern Ore
gon Light and Power Company. The
lake covers thirty acres. 1t was re-
Gently stocked with trout. 1t is To-
Gated at the summit Of the Elkhorn
