new DRAFT ON 4
SELECTIVE BASIS
Plans For Next Army Put Up
to President.
SINGLE MEN TO 60 FIRST

Proposition Was Recently Submitted
To q Conference of Citizens Who
Directed Exemption Board Activities
In Number of States and Received
Endorsement of Most Of Them-In'
dustrIes Would Be Classified.
Washington. Oct ia tentative
plan for selecting the next draft army
has been worked out by the provost
marshal general and discussed with
President Wilson
The new scheme wouh take first
only men without dependants and Of
no particular value to war industries,
and would establish grades Of de-
pendancy and industrial value from
which future drafts would be made.
The plan, It was learned. was sub
mitted recently to a conference Of cdv-
Ilians, who directed exemption board
activities In q number Of states and re-
ceaved the Endorsement Of most OF
them, who are now discussing the pro
posed plan with their state governors.
It is proposed to formulate In each
local draft district table Of all regis
trants, placing them In column de-
noting his dependents and Industrial
value tn the wars prosecution. For
instance, horizontal columns or classi-
ncations would be based on dependen-
cy. Men with no dependents would bo
placed in the first class, those with
dependent distant relatives in the sec
ond class, those with wives in the
third class, those with a wife and one
child in the fourth, and so on.
Similarly the vertical columns
might represent certain industries ar
ranged according to their respective
merit as war necessities. Industrial
classes under consideration in this
connection are farmers, shipyard en-
pioyes, munition workers, railway and
transportation employees, miners, steel
plant and motor industry workmen
and certain other individual plants or
industry branches to be designated
from time to time by the president or
war department as temporarily essen.
tial
The table with horizontal dependen-
cy classifioations and vertical indus
trial classihcations will hold a place
for each registrant with regard to his
dependency or Industrial value claims.
In selecting men for examination
boards would first take all men physi- |
cally fit haYing neither dependents
nor value In essential war industries. |
When this class was exhausted, draft
authorities would draw on the classes
having the slightest dependency claims
and the least value in essential indus
tries.
The scheme contemplates immedi.
ate examination of all men registered,
but this course depends on an appro-
pr1ation, which cannot be obtained
until congress convenes in December.
Advocates Of the plan point out,
however, that II might be put into op.
Grafton for even a single increment Of
a million men, and could be extended
down the present liability Lists as fast
as funds were made available.

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy-If You Know DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret Of keeping young Is to feel
young - TO do this you must watch your
liver and bowels - there's no need OF
having sallow complexion - dark rings
under your eyes - pimples "a bilious
look In your face - dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety
per cent of all sickness comes from In
active bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, a well-known physician
In Ohio. perfected a vegetable com.
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the substi-
tute for calomel, are gentle in their action
yet always effective. They bring about
that exuberance of spirit, that natural
buoyancy which should be enjoyed by
everyone, by toning up the liver and clear
ing the system of impurities.

hand.
The natural resources of the region
seem to be ample to justify our belief
in the future.
Having made this survey, let us see
what other cities have done. Minot al
ready has some $4,000 people and is
now and has been for the past few
years, breaking all records in this
state, both in increase in population
and construction. The building per-
mits of this city last year were in the
class Of the average cities in the Unit
ed States up to one hundred thousand
people, and there are enough noses
pointed toward Minot now to make it
the first city in the northwest, mean
ing between the Twin Cities and Great
Falls, during the coming five years.
This is not an unwarranted assump-
ton. Calgary on the north of us with
the same identical general topography
with a business not so dense, and a
great portion of her immediate terri
tory consumated by the Rocky Noun
tains when she woke up in 1906
showed growth in 10 years Of from
5000 people to 10000, and added 49,
900 during the next three years. Spo-
kane on the west of us did exactly the
same thing, and Great Falls is now do
ing it.
All of these cities had what is COM
monty known as boom. Thus far
Minot has escaped; outside investors
who enter these prospective centers of
commerce have not as yet become fully
aware of the possibilities here. Still
we find actual transfers to show that
properties have been bought and sold
among our own people at increases in
value in the naked real estate, in the
so-called business section, of from 100
