PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION
OF I. w. w. POSTPONED

The preliminary examination OF
George McDraw, George McDon-
aid, Ed. Weltin, Joe Ryan and
William Hameet, who were ar
rested at st. Joe last week under
the state sabotage law, has been
postponed until Wednesday NOR
ming at 10000 o'clock. The pre-
examination was started
this morning but, owing to the
absence of Sheriff holland, VINO
will be witness against the men,
it could not be completed and
continuance was taken to We'd
nesday morning. The continu-
ance was vigorously contested by
Attorney R. B. Norris, who re-
presented the defendants, but his
objections we're overruled by
Judge Cromwell.
The men were arrested at St.
Joe by Deputy Sheriff King under
the charge Of picketing and dis
tributing literature advocating
sabotage and industrial syndical-
ism. At the time of their arrest
two of the men denied that they
were members Of the I. w. w.
The preliminary examination Of
James J. Jarvis, who was arrested
in this city Saturday by Sheriff
holland, and who is charged with
the same offense, has also been
set for Wednesday and will follow

Instructions To
Exemption Boards
TOTAL DEPENDENCY MUST BE SHOWN
Earning Power OF Drafted Men will Be Taken
Into Consideration.

Further instructions to the
local exemption boards in regard
to claims for exemption on ac-
count of dependents have been
received from Provost Marshal
General Crowder through the
governors office.
Under the ruling by the Provost
marshal the earning power Of the
drafted men will be taken into
consideration in the matter Of
exemptions, as will also the man
rer in which dependents have
been cared for. It is maintained
that in some cases the families
of married men will be better Off
with The men in the army, allot-
ting a portion of their pay to
their dependents at home. The
message Of the provost marshal
lcn this subject is as follows:
please call the attention of
local boards to the fact that a
soldiers pay is not less than $50
month and that all clothing,
subsistence, medical treatment
and housing are furnished him.
Under the law he may allow any
lportion of his pay to a dependent.
Many soldiers receiving $50 a
month are easily able to allOt S25
monthly to the support of de-
pendents. In case of death in
line of duty the government will
ray the beneficiary designated
Iby the soldier six months pay
Section 4 Of the sefective ser
vice act provides that those in q
status with respect to persons de-
pendent upon them for support
which renders their exclusion OF
discharge advisable may be dis.
lcharged, but it does not require
that they shall be discharged il
lall such cases. The discretion o
/ local boards is invoked by thi
provision and such boards ma.
we'll take the fact recited abov
into consideration in decidinl
claims for discharge due to de
lpendency with a view to deter
mining whether, as a matter o
fact, the person claiming sue
discharge will not be in as goo
or better position to support hi
dependents after selection TO

MANY SIGNATURES FOR
DRAINAGE PETITIONS

j. f. Landeryou, Who has
charge of the circulation of The
petition for the formation of the
drainage district for the purpose
of widening and deepening the
source of the Spokane river, has
been actively engaged in this
work for The past week. He re-
ports that he is meeting with
much success i'm securing sigma
lures and already has secured
more than the number required
by law. He states that by the
time he has completed the work
Iif circulating the petition the
signatures of about ninety per
cent of the property owners af-
fected will have been secured.
The petition in Kootenai coun-
ty, which is being circulated by
M A. Kiger of Harrison, is also
meeting with much success, a
large percentage of the property
owners affected signing it. AS
soon as the work or circulating
the petitions is completed appli-
cation will be made to the court
for the formation of the districts
and the appointment of the COM
missioners and the work of wild
lening and deepening the river
where it leaves the lake will be
started Immediately.

military service than he was be-
fore. If such is the case, Of
course discharge should not be
granted"
A ruling on claims of exemption
from draft on account of mar
riage since July 20 has been given
by the provost marshal, who says:
Marriage is not of itself a
valid ground for making claim Of
discharge.
"A man whose wife is mainly
dependent on his daily labor for
support may claim exemption on
that ground. But dependency is
matter of fact. The rule does
not ask is the husband, as a
matter of law, liable TO support
the wife?" It asks Is the wife,
as a matter Of fact, mainly de-
pendent on the daily labor of her
husband for support?' Only the
exemption boards can determine
this fact. Where dependency is
claimed and the circumstances
show a marriage hastily consum-
mated since July 20 by a man
whose number is high on the
available list the actual fact OF
dependency must be closely
scrutinized.
Moreover, by Section of the
act of May i8, any person who
evades or aids another
to evade the requirements of thi:
act is guilty Of a misdemeanor
and local boards are authorized
to warn persons who claim dis
charge on the ground Of mar
riages contracted since the dat
of the act that both parties arr
liable to prosecution under thii
provision if, in fact, the mar.
riage was contracted solely will
the intent to evade the perform
rance of military duty"

cf this state has sent communi-
cation to the presidents of the
higher educational institutions
and the superintendent and
principals of high schools asking
them to put forth extraordinary
efforts to fill up the depleted
ranks of their respective institu-
tions for the coming year. The
communication says:
1.-The call of the army and navy
has drawn away an abnormal
percentage, as compared with all
other classes, of the young men
who are seeking a higher educa-
ton. Because they are in groups
where they react on each other,
and because they are young and
brave and imaginative, this class
is swept out beyond its proper
ton. It has furnished its normal
share through the draft and an
abnormal share of volunteers.
One small high school in one
week gave fifteen youths to the
navy and ten to the army. The
universities, likewise, have given
freely of their best blood for the
battle line.
Whether the war De short or
long, whether there be continued
n de1guction of men and materials,
~ worldwide reconstruction,
the mobilization of our youth of
high school and college age for
larger production is of the utmost
Importance. 1t is not enough to
mobilize them in the military
training camps or at the battle
front; our second and third and
tenth line Of defense must be
provided for with just as much
care.
Modern warfare demands not
only Instruments of o1fense and
defense and the fighting soldier,
but a vast equipment for the pro-
duction and transportation of
innumerable other commodities.
The service of the chemist, the
engineer, the agriculturist, and
the business manager are as es-
scntial as those of the soldier
There was need before for such
men; now the demand for them
is imperative. AS a national duty
aud as a national service at the
present moment young mer
should seek preparation as never
before.
1T is assumed as a matter ot
course everywhere that there vii
be a decrease in the number o.
university and high school stu
dents. Instead of this, there
should be an actual increase
The young man before went tC
college for his own sake; now h'
should go for the nations sake
More young women, likewise
Should prepare to fill the vacan
cies which will occur in increas
ing measure by reason of the alb
sence of the young men.
'In Idaho there were in rOun
numbers $4,000 youths betweei
the ages Of twenty-one and thir

solving to determine whether
they are physically flt for service
in the new national army. The
first person to present himself
for examination in Benwah cOun-
ty was Carl Albin Helberg of this
city whose serial number is 81
and who was number 1872 in the
order Of call in this county. Mr..
|Helberg successfully passed the
physical examination but claims
an exemption on the grounds of
dependent relatives.
His registration card shows
that he was born at Duluth,
Mimi, November 6, 1888, and is
now twenty-eight years of age.
He is a wood-worker employed by
the st. Maries Lumber company,
is married and has two children.
He registered in College Precinct
in this city.
The second person TO present
himself for the physical examina-
ton was Joseph f.. Birchfeld of
this city, whose serial number is
IS and who is number Go in the
order of call. Mr. Birchiield sue
cessfully passed the physical ex-
lamination and does not claim any
exemption, stating that he is
anxious to serve. His registra-
tion card shows that he was born
at Yellow Hill, N. c., July 2t, 1895
and is now 2l years of age. He
is employed by the Milwaukee
railroad as a section hand and
registered in College Precinct in
this city.
Mr.. Birchfeld is one of three
brothers of the eligible age, all
OF whom were drawn early in the
order Of call. One of these
brothers, Arthur M. Birchneld,
whose number was 100 on the
list, has already enlisted in the
lumberjack regiment. The other
brother, Jesse T. Birchheld, IS
number 1870 in the order of call
for this county.
The auditors Office has been
busy since the time Of sending
out the notices for registrants to
appear for examination in send
ing out the various forms upon
which persons desire to make
application for exemption. The
draft law gives seven days after
the date of the notice of call ir
j which to file claims for exemp-
ton. This time expires on Fri
day, August 10, and all claims
must be in the hands of the loca
board on that date in order tC
receive consideration. If nc
claim is filed before that date anC
the registrant is found to b'
physically qualified his name viii
be certified to the district boar,
as one who was called for militar!
: service and not exempted or dis
charged.
Although the law gives teI
days after the filing of such {
claim in which to file proof il

board, desires that such proof b
