COMMERCIAL CLUB
 TO HOLD MEETING

The regular annual meeting of the 1ditarod Commercial Club will be held at the Miners & Merchants Bank on Monday. the 7th day of January, 1918.
 New officers are to be elected through out, and various matters of importance will be before the club-not least, per- haps, being the question of finances. So far the club has worked for two years upon the first years dues, but the treasury is now down to eighty-six cents. All members are equally in ar rears, and so all may start of on terms of equality.
 The work of the club has not been spectacular, nor of great import to the world at large, but it has accom- plished some substantial beueft to this locality, and the work of the club should go on.
 Let every one turn out with their three dollars. Don't forget the three dollars, which is 8 necessary formality previous to voting.

TAKE WHAT WE GAN
 AND WHEN WE CAN'

Revealed in a pamphlet discovered not long ago in the library of Wendell Phillips, the great American orator and abolitonst who died in Boston in 1884, is what is said to be the Hohen zollern creed. It is styled Instructions of Frederick II. of Prussia to his Sue cessor to the Crown--Origin of the Bismarck Policy, or the Hohenzollern Doctrines and Maxims, Described and Defined by the Most Eminent Monarch of the Prussian Dynasty, Frederick the Great.
 Some say the present ka;ser is fol- lowing the doctrine his illustrious pred ecessor laid down. These are part o' the instructions, addressed by Fred erick to My Dear Nephew"
 "Always bear in mind that, with regard to kingdoms, we monarchs take what we can, when we can, and we are never in the wrong except when we are compelled to give up what we had taken.

Schooner Seized

San Francisco, Nov. 12.-Upon orders of the government, the collector of the port seized the power schooner Hugh Hogan on the ground that it is Ger man sea raider. Investigations by the Federal authorities revealed the fact that the vessel was equipped with a shelter deck which hid a number of light guns. The vessel was also equipped with Bolinder engines, cap able of high speed. The ownership of the vessel has been traced to German interests in Mexico.
 Reports given out by the federal officials also indicate that another yes sel, now in Puget Sound, will be seized on similar charge. Both ships have been under surveillance for some weeks.

The Iditar0d Pioneer Wishes One and All A Prosperous and Happy Rev Year
BOOSTING THE POPULA-
 TON

It is not suggested that anyone has ever boosted the population of Alaska, but if they had done so there might now be a pause for reflection. Alasna's quota in the selective draft for the Ma tional army is based upon a popu lation of "A, ,916, and of this it is safe to say that the bigger part are natives who do not count at all in making up the quota which will be credited to Alas!-a.
 And if all parts of Alaska show up as Otter precinct does, and those best posted believe that it will not be materially different taken as a whole, then 48 out of every 100 registered may escape by reason of claimed exemptions enemy aliens," and aliens who have not taken out their first pa- pers.
 Another matter which cuts down very strongly the available timber for actual use is the fact that, approximately, the native American element are those long, est in the country, and largely above the present military age of 31 years.
 The quota which must be actu ally furnished and delivered to the mobilization camp is, approx imately, 11z per cent. of the total population-not what it is today, but a proportionately increased figure over the census of 1910, which means that the Territory under the jurisdiction of the local board, Otter, Innoko, Mt. Mo- Kinley and Kuskokwim precinct, must furnish not less than 50 men-not 50 registrauts, but 50 men accepted for service under final examination at the camp of mobilization.
 Allowing for the inevitable failures to meet the physical ex- animation, this means that al most certainly every man who is registered and who is fit will go to the front.

Giacono Gluliano Dassatti.
 Thsro is also one man registered as Bulgarian.
 Under the clause "A resident alien (not Gernan) who has not taken out his first papers," most of the above would be exempt, even if not counted as 'enemy aliens;" and, in addition, not less than 39 others.
 In addition to claims for exemption claims for discharge may be made on any of the following grounds, which are the only grounds for discharge by local board. County or municipal officer, whose place cannot be filled by appointment; customhouse clerk; em- ployed by the United States in tho transmission of mails; artifcer or work man employed in an armory, arsenal, or navy yard of the United States; em- ployed in the service of the United States (under certain conditions); li- censed pilot regulary employed as such: mariner actually employed in the sea service of the United States; married man with dependent wife or child; widowed dependant mother; aged or inform parents dependant upon your labor for support; father of a mother less child under 16, who is dependant; brother of an orphan child under l6. who is dependent; and, being a member of any well-recoguized religious sect or organization organized and existent May l8, 1917, and whose then existing creed or principles forbade it's members to participate in war in any form and whose religious convictions are against war or participation therein in accord ance with the creed or principle of said religious organization.
 The above are the only grounds of exemption or discharge by local board, and the board is absolutely without any discretion whatever. Whoever claims 8 discharge on account of industrial or agricultural reasons must, in due time and form, file their claim with the di- visional board (at Fairbanks).
 But those who intend to claim ex- emption or discharge must bear in
Iditarod pioneer., 1917-12-29

mind that the local board can only con- sider such claims as are made on 8 proper form, provided by the board, and filed within seven days after the man is actually called; and as it is not possible to know that any certain man will be called at this draft. no blanks can be furnished except to those actu- ally summoned to appear for physical examination.
 There is not sufficient supply to scatter indiscrimnstely, but "Bulle- tin of Information for Persons Regis tered" is at the office of the Iditarod Pioneer, and one has been supplied to each of the local pos,offioes; also, of course, one may be seen at any time at rhe office of Major Alorecht, the sec- retary of the local board

LOCAL BOARD OF
 SELECTIVE DRAFT
LOCAL BOARD No. IS, CITY OF IDITAROD,


 The local board of exemptions for the seective draft has now received all it's blanks and supplies, but has not yet received the registration cards from any of the precincts except Otter, those from Innoko, Mt. Mckinley, and from the Kuskok vim being yet due to comc.
 The blanks furnished to the board total 90, and ths pamphlet of instruc- tion, when put together make book over an iuch thick-somewhat over 600 pages.
 The secretary of the board, Major Geo. w. Albrecht, will be glad to give any information reasonably within his power, but respectfully requests people not to expect instant answer to all questions, nor to ask him to put in too much time answering questions asked out of idle curiosity. Remember the 600 pages of instructionz. Too much of lesson to be learned in minute.
 The local board knows nothing as to tho time of the draft, nor where it will take place, nor the manner. but il, would seem that no numbers would be drawn until after all duplicate cards were Tn the hands of the divisional board, to whom the local board reports. hat is to Fairbanks. If this be cor rect, then the drawing can scarcel! take place earller than in February-if then.
 The only grounds of exemptions which the local board eau consider are the following:
 An officer of the United States, or of the Territory of Alaska.
 A duly ordained, or regular minister of religion. A student of divinity. In the naval or military service of the United States. A subject of Germany, residing
 in tho United States,
 A resident alien (not German)
 who has not taken out his first papers. While no direct instructions are yet at hand concerning Austrian subjects, it is believed to be certain that the same reasons which exempt German subject, must now exempt Austrians. h the list of regstrants for Otter precinct, the only ones now in the hands of the local board, the following would be exempt by reason of their being "enemy aliens" As German: Louis Sehwarz. As Austrians: Stephen Resch. Peter Dukich. Ely Rapich. Geo. N. Nogulioh. Louis Hasu. Mike Blanusha. Vincent Kauheok. Nato Matich.

RETAIN ALL BREEDING STOCK
Near. Sighted Policy Of Farmer to Let
Animals Go Simply Because
Prices Are High.

Due To the scarcity of, and demand
for, all kinds Of meat, the price Of live
stock Is ut present abnormally high.
The farmer naturally wants to sell all
he eau at these figures. and II Is not To
be wondered NJ that he Is sorely tempt
ed To sell his old or breeding stock as
well 1T these figures. II Is true that
they will bring good price. yet, un-
less others MS good or better are on
hand To replace them, this procedure
IL bad indeed.
Instead Of selling of breeding stock,
the opposite plan should be followed
wherever possibe--the increasing Of
breeders. The American live stock In
dustry must not only he maintained.
hut II must be built up. Kill the ma
turc stock and the industry Is crippled.
With the breeders killed. production Is
cut Of and future farm profits from
these animals lost.
The breeding animals on the farm
are essential and must be considered
ms part of the permanent investment.
Save these to earn future profits, and
10 preserve and insure our domestic
meat supply.
Don't, kill the goose that lays the

SCARCITY OF GARDEN SEEDS
Gardener Is Reminded OF Importance
Of Growing and Saving as Much
as He Will Require.

The scarcity and high price OF gar
den seeds. together with the unprece-
dcntcd demand, made IL impossible for
many growers Ia plant ms much as they
wished. As dealers We're out Of the
varieties ordered subStitutions were
common and much disappointment re-
suited. These facts impress upon every
gardener the wisdom Of growing and
saving rs many Of his own seeds as
possible. II requires only little effort
Ia do this and the gain Is much more
Than represented by the cost Of seeds.
II Is an easy matter at this time To
pick out n few Of the best radish and
lettuce plants and allow them to grow
and form seed Two or three plants
viii produce rs much seed as one needs
To- plant in the home garden. Pick out
the very best plants for this purpose.
In the same way you can save seed
Of spinach, tomato, peppers, eggplant,
beans, peas and many other vege-
tables. Where more than one variety
of sweet corn, melons, squash or Gu
cumberS are grown near together. the
seed will become mixed and of little
value to plant.
