TO warrant the belief that the drawing
will be held before the end Of the week.
The plan Of the lottery will be dis
closed in an announcement to be made
by Provost Marshal General Crowder
probably late today.
The plan for the drawing has been
worked out in detail and approved by
Secretary Baker. The machinery fol
the lottery has been arranged and the
only points undecided are the exact
place in Washington where the drawing
will take place, and the date
There are many questions, such as
wire facilities which must be considered
and it is probable that General Crowder
and the Washington correspondents
will work out an agreement on this
point.
The government will be ready fol
the drawing as soon as the last state
has reported by telegraph that its work
is complete. If the last telegram comes
in the morning. the drawing can be
held the same day. If it comes at night
it is probable the drawing will take
place the following day.

OLD BREWERIES ARE
Buster THAN EVER
Making Furniture, Shoes and
and Other Necessities.

Portland, Oregon Dry Oregon has
solved the problem Of what to do with
her brewery plants now that they can
not produce beer. The old breweries
in the state are giving employment
to many tins the number Of men that
were employed in the manufacture Of
beer. The Rainier brewery is now a
tannery and employs 1900 men. In
the making of beer it employed 1876
men. The Portland brewery which
employed 100 men in making beer is
now giving work to 800 men in MAX
ing furniture. The Pacific Coast
Brewery gave work to 1875 men when
beer was manufactured, but now as
shoe factory it has on its payroll $500
men.
Ohio voters will see by this record
that not only is there no confscation
Of property when a state becomes dry,
but that more working men are en-
ployed and everybody enjoys the ben
eft of the change.

AND ENLISTMENT
FOR ARMY AND NAVY

The postmaster is one of the war
men of Uncle Sam. He is the one
man in every community, who must
always keep in mind the wishes and
orders of the government at Wash
ington. If army and navy want men
it is not his business to discourage
enlistments, but rather to encourage
same. If he knows of any thing be-
Ing said or done t1at is or might be
detrimental to his country it is his
business to get it and report it. But
he is not supposed to be any more of
d patriot than any othe' cit IN. In
war time it is the duty of all per-
sons to be on guard and ready to hit
traitors and treason
