The men claim that by the new system
1t Is not possible for man To average as
much money as under the former method

dependents, these being young men
who had married at from 18 to 20

These men will be needed to fill the

NEARLY ALL 1913 REG|STRANTS
IN LATAH COUNTY IN CLASS ONE

In the recent reclassification in this
county, independent of the agricul-
tural exemptions which go to the dis
trict board, 226 men were taken from
other classes and put in class 1. Of
this number 1870, or all but 46, have
appealed from the decision of the
board advancing their classification.
These At will be placed in class 1 and
will be subject to call at any r1me.
The decision of the district board upon
the appeals of the other 180 is await
ed by the board with much interest.
There are many men in this county
who have been given deferred classi-
fication because of agricultural inter
ests and the board is hoping that none
of these will be called for service un-
til after harvest, as it is certain there
will be shortage of help for harvest
any way If it becomes necessary to
call these men before the crop is
saved it will work hardship upon
the farmers of the county.
Today the local board received a
telegram from Adjutant General
Moody asking how many men in this
county are available for special linn
tied military service in the spruce
division. Homer Estes, clerk of the
board, telegraphed that there are IL
men capable of filling the positions
in this county. The men are wanted
for sawmill foremen, assistant fore
men, log deckers and timber works.

"Can a republican file the name of
a democratic candidate for county
office" This question is being ask
ed in the court house today, and it
may require the opinion of the
county attorney to answer it. The
question was raised when Ira E.
Foster, of Gold Hill precinct, filed the
name of A. W. Longfellow for the
democratic nomination for sheriff cf
Latah county. Fster states in the
notice of the filing that he is a re-
publican and asks that Longfellow's
name be filed for the democratic
nomination. The primary law requires
that voter, in filing the name of a
candidate must state that he is of
the same political faith (party) as
the candidate and intends to vote for
him at the primary election. Mr..
Foster has not done this and it is be-
lieved the filing is illegal. AS the
filing fee did not accompany the no.
tice, the matter is held up any way.
John T. Woody has filed for the re-
publican nomination for sheriff of
Latah county. 1t is understood that
