Second Annual Registration
Under Draft Law June 5th
All Male Persons who Have Become 21 Years Old
Since June 5th 1917, Must Register June 5th.
Register With Local Board, Fort Yates

June 9Th, has under an act Of
congress and proclamation of the
President been fixed as the date for
the registration Of all men who
have become 21 years Of age since
June 5th, 1917, when the first
army draft was held.
In Sioux county there will be but
one registration place. It will be
at Fort Yates in the court house,
and the registration will be in
charge of the members of the Local
Board. The forms for the registr-
alton are different from those form
erly used and contains much more
information.
The reason that there will be but
one registration place for each
Local Board is that no provision
has been made for appointing
registrars throughout the country.
as was the case last year.
Sioux County pioneer. (Fort Yates, Sioux County, N.D.) 1914-1929, 1918-05-23

It is the duty of every man who
has become 21 years of age, since
June 9Th, last year to present him
self in person for registration.
The hours for registration are from
z o'clock a. m. to 8 O'Clock p. m.
Il is also the duty of every loyal
citizen to report to the Local Board
any person coming within the
registration act who fails to appear.
On the basis of population under
which the draft estimate was made
there will be 100000 men affected
by this new registration. This
will mean but very few in Sioux
county.
According to the best information
obtainable at this time these men
will be put in Class A 1, and called
for physical examination immedi-
ately.

George Bird Grinnel, Phi. D.,
is here. Fort Yates has a dis
tinguished visitor this week. Mr..
Grinnel is an old newspaper man
and for manv years was editor of
Forest and Stream" published in
New York City. He is a personal
friend Of Theodore Roosevelt and
has travelled over the world with
him.
In 1874 Mr.. Grinnel made trip
from old Fort Lincoln to the Black
Hills with the famous Custer ex-
pedition, which gave to the world
the first official news Of the discov-
cry Of gold in this new Eldorado.
He made q report to the smithson-
ian Institute on birds and animals
found on this trip. In speaking of
the trip. he says that it was gen.
uine frolic from start to finish.
They passed through country as
yet untouched by the hand Of the
whiteman, and many time while
riding over the plains in company
with companion the opinion would
be expressed. that the Indian, buff
falo and antelope would live here
forever, and no idea was ever enter
tained that the year 1918 would
find every available piece Of land
fenced and under cultivation by the
whiteman.
DR.. Grinnel knew personally,
Gen. Custer aud all the prominent
men Of the ill-fated 9TH Cavalry.
And he remembers the scouts as
well, among whom were Louis
Agard and old man Goose. In rs
he made. a trip up the Missouri
with the famous Grant Marsh, who
at that time, was the greatest
steamboat captain on the Missouri
river.
DR.. Grinnel has written many
books on the American Indian,
among which may be mentioned:
Pawnee Hero Stories and Folk
Tales, Blackfoot Lodge Tales, The
Story of the Indian, and the Fight
ing Cheyennes. At present he is
looking up old locations of Cheyen-
ne villages along the Missouri and
the results Of his researches will be
incorporated in another volume on
the Cheyennes.

men individually, and received many
touching messages from the French
prisoners for the Holy Father.
The camp of Ingolstadt, which was
visited a few days afterwards, is the
largest camp for officers in Germany,
and among it's inmates are nearly
a thousand Russian and French Off
GERS, to say nothing of English, Bel
gian and Rumanian, while an annex
contains 1900 privates, drawn from all
the Allies. The visit here took two
whole days. Beginning with the camp
of the privates, the nuncio also Wis
tied the hospital the fortress and
every other part of the camp. He was
able to address the English, French
and Italians in their own language,
but he had to have recourse to in
terpreter for the Russians, many of
the officers, however, understanding
French The distribution of parcels
was repeated with a very slight vari-
alton as regards contents, coffee being
substituted for tea. The Pope had
also sent large number of medals,
which the nuncio gave into the hands
of the Catholic chaplains, to be given
to all those officers and men, who de-
sired one, as he did not wish to force
any religious emblem upon non-Catho-
lies.
On his visit to the chapel in the
prison fortress, he was greeted by
fine choir of soldier priests, and be-
fore he left he held a special recep-
ton for the priest soldiers and chap
lains. Many of the wounded were so
touched by the gift of Benedict XIV,
that they kissed the nuncio's hand
with effusion.

the Vatican. Plus TX was such pris-
oner; Leo XIII shared the same fate,
as did also Plus x; and now Benedict
XIV rules in confinement.
However, the robbery of the Papal
States was not executed without in
yolving Italy in a different aftermath
Sooner or later the Roman question
would threaten to become an interna-
tional issue. To avert such a devel-
opment of affairs, Italy has been ex-
erting her utmost to keep the Pope in
a position of international isolation
She succeeded in having the Vatican
excluded from the Hague Peace Trib-
unal about eighteen years ago.. and in
the present war, as recent revelations
prove, she demanded the exclusion of
the Pope from future peace confer
ence as one of the considerations for
her joining the cause of the Allies.
In these wartime days when we hear
so much of the restoration of Alsace-
Lorraine, which was ceded by France
to Prussia in 1871, the matter of right
ing the wrong done to the Papacy in
1870 is mot even mentioned But
who knows but that it may claim the
attention Of plenipotentiarie at fu-
ture peace conference! Catholic Aus
tria naturally would welcome a favor
able solution of the Roman question,
and Germany's new Chancellor, Won
Hertling, has very decided personal
views in this matter. At the forty
second General Congress of the Catho-
olics of Germany in 1895, he delivered
an address on the Roman question,
which he characterized as follows:
Rome, the ancient, historic Rome,
the Rome of the Apostles and Martyrs,
the holy, eternal city, clamors that
her historic mission be restored to her,
that she again become the seat of a
Papacy free in the exercise of it's lofty
functions. And that the present status
of the Pope is an unworthy, an intol-
cradle, an impossible one, is the con-
viction which animates you all and
which I do not need to force home for
the first time on this occasion. The
Pope must be free, he must be indie
pendent; at the seat of his spiritual
dominion, at the seat of his ecclesi-
astical rule, he may not be confined
and hemmed in by foreign temporal
authority. The supreme teacher, the
chief shepherd, the supreme judge
may not be subject to any worldly SOW
ereign. The goth of September, 1870,
did not mark a final episode, it merely
created a conflict which has not been
composed today after twenty-five years,
and the solution of which is being de-
manded bye the Catholics the world
over with the greatest force and the
firmest energy"
