Judge Beede Appointed
Co. Fuel Administrator
Every Coal Dealer in Sioux County
Must Obtain License to Handle
Coal-Prices are Fixed

County Judge A. McG. Bcede
has been appointed Government
Fuel Administrator for Sioux coun-
ty by Capt. l.. P. Baker of Bis
marck, who is the state fuel adnai-
nistrator.
Every dealer in coal in Sioux
county must have a license which
is issued by Judge Beede. A dealer
can only charge a certain fixed
profit per ton for handling the coal,
and may sell only one ton of an
thracite (hard coaD to any one
person at reasonable intervals.
There is no limit TO the amount of
soft coal or Ignite, except in case
Of shortage.
In case of shortage the fuel ad-
ministrator can compel anyone
having large supply Of fuel on
hand to divide with their unfor-
tunate neighbors. Judge Beede
says that so far as he can learn
there has been no shortage of fuel
in Sioux county and he believes
everybody is supplied for the win
ter.
Judge Beede also states chat he
is going to recommend that every
body be permitted to lay in their
winters supply Of coal during next
summer and fall. 1t has also been
suggested that Judge Becde use his
influence with the Indian Bureau
to the extent Of obtaining permis-
sion for the opening of Ignite mi
mes on unentered Indian lands.
The same appeal should be made
to the state as there are a number
of good Ignite deposits on school
land in Sioux county.

All The Sioux County
Questionnaires Mailed
Very Few Of the 800 Registered Men in
Sioux County Have Failed to Return
Their Questionnaires

The last Questionnaires to be
sent to registered men in Sioux
county were mailed Tuesday this
week, and any registrant who has
not received his copy by the time
this paper is issued should notify
the Local Board at once.
Very few of the 800 registered
men in Sioux county have failed
to return their Questionnaires, and
but one or two has been returned
to the Local Board by the post
masters for the reason that the
registrant to whom it was address,
ed had removed and left no for
warding address. These men are
put in Class One, and besides are
liable to prosecution.
The work Of classification is pro-
crossing daily with the return OF
the Questionnaires. Several agri-
cultural claims sent to the District
Board have been acted on and re-
turned. In every case so far the
District Board have granted de-
ferred classification to all farmers
who have asked to be put into Glass
Four.
As soon as all the Questionnai-
res are returned and the classitica-
tion completed, the men placed il,
Class One will be called for physi-
cal examination. Men who have
previously been examined and ac-
cepted will not be called again for
examination, unless they claim to
have incurred disability since. All
men, however, who failed to pass
the physical examination previously
will be re-examined unless the Lo-
cal Board is satisfied from the the
records OF the former examination
that the registrant is permanently
disabled and physically deficient
for military service.
DR.. w. A. Thomas Of Solen, has
been recommended by Governor
Frazier for the vacancy on the Lo-
cal Board caused by the removal to
New York Of DR.. L. NJ. Eichhorn.
DR.. Thomas expects to receive his
commission from President Wilson
in a few days, and will conduct
the physical examination.
Any registrant not satisfied with
the result of his physical examina-
ton can 20 before one Of the var
ious Medical Advisory Boards and
be re-examined. The nearest
board to Sioux county is at Bis
marck.
