REGISTER SEPT. II
Thursday, Sept. 18th, Named
in Proclamation Last Sat-
urday by President Wilson
as Registration Day."
Ages 18 to 21, BIAS.

Thursday, Sept. 18th, between
the hours of 7 a. m. and 9 p. m.
has been set aside as the day on
which all men between ages of
IS and 81, and 31-45, must go to
their respective voting precincts
and register for military service.
The names of the registrars
and assistants were published in
last weeks Post-Dispatch, and
are this week published again on
page 9. Turn to that page and
see who your registrar is.
All male persons who shall
have attained their 18th birthday
and shall not have attained their
10th birthday on or before Sept.
18th must register. This is sim
pie and leaves no chance of a
misunderstanding.
It is estimated that at least
IL, 2,778,758 men will register, COM
pared with nearly 10 million be-
tween 21-31 June 5, 1917. Of
those who enroll next Thursday
it is estimated that 100000 will
be called for general military
service and will be in France be-
fore July 1st. The idea is to
take the eligible men 31-37 first,
then 37-45, then 1920 and leave
the 18-year-old boys to the very
last.
About 23O0 men registered in
Richmond county June 5, 1917,
and it is expected that at least
2700 will register Sept. 18th.

Telegram About Shankle.

Relatives of Willie Shankle re.
ceived a wire from the War
Department at Washington last
Friday stating that he had been
severely wounded in action July
10th. No other information
could be learned, and so it is not
known whether he is dead, as re
ported, or not. The report that
he was dead came from a letter
written by his cousin who was
with him in the battle.

There are sinister partisan infin-
ences at work trying TO break down
the efficient state government OF Ida
no i'm time of war. There are many
men who long for the flesh pots of
the good old days Of old in this state
when the Aliens and Colemans -four
ished They would destroy and dis.
rupt the governmental organization,
possibly the best this state ever had.
In order TO get back The people
would better hold fast to that which

forego all claims in the interest OF

having been received in Boise. Gov

HoRAA PATRIOTIC.

Il is creditable to the good sense
aud patriotism Of Borah. republican
partisan though he be, that he should
rise TO rebnke the war critics Of the
Roosevelt and Chamberlain type. The
Senator characterized as wild" what
some people have allowed them
selves TO say and do just because
they cannot forget craftsmanship. But
the country will soon forget them or
hold them in uncherished hateful
memory all the days of their lives.
In this connection the testimony Of
Secretary Baker. before the Senate
committee the other day. must burn
into the narrow souls OF men like
his defamcrs.
