HOW THE DRAFT AFFECTS
SCHOOL TEACHERS IN D. C.
supt. Thurston Says Question Of
Exemption May Be Considered
l., at Early Date.

Draft exemption for man teachers
In tho public schools Of the District
Of Columbia 10 not under considera-
ton at this time by school officials
according to Supertendent Of Schools
Ernest L Thurston. Some such step
may have to be taken in the near fu-
ture the superintendent admitted to-
day. saying that he had not been adj
vised by the War Department just
what status school teachers would
have.
$50 far the schools have made not
able contributions to the war estab-
lishment," said Mr.. Thurston today.
Ten men have been drafted from
white schools and eleven are in war
service from the colored schools, in adj
dition to twenty from the tanitor
force. These do not include some
others on temporary leave Of absence
for war service.
Men in the school system Of the
District constitute but IL per cent OF
the total stan, and any depletion OF
the remaining force of men would be
a serious matter. To remove the men
from the force in such a way that 1t
would be less efficient would serious
ly endanger the future education OF
thousands Of pupils and would lessen
the teaching facilities of the schools
to such an extent that it would take
many years to build up an organiza-
tion similar to the one we now have"

Mount Rubber.
From the Kansas City Star.

1f0m the Kansas CITY STAT.
Remember Mount Rubber when
you como to Newton" urges the Kan
san. Mount Rubber is heap OF rub
Der rubbish on East Broadway, near
Main street, which, when it assumes
the desired proportions. will be sold
to old rubber collectors and the pro-
ceeds turned over to the Red Cross.
The nation needs the rubber, the Red
Cross needs the money and the pub
lie needs its radiance. Anything like
an old auto tire, bicycle tire, rubber
boots, old garden hose, rubber out of
your neck-in fact, anything in the
form of rubber-can be chucked into
the pile and it will be jolt for the
kaiser" says the Kansan.

 The Hohenzollern, master of
 propaganda, has his agents at
 work in every state sowing the
 seeds of discord and discontent,
 stirring up strife whenever and
 wherever possible, retarding pro-
 duction, destroying crops, blow ing up munition factories, setting fire to shipyards, and in every
 other conceivable way hindering
 and delaying our governments in it's efforts to do its full partin the
 prosecution of the war against the Central Powers, and if the |. w. w. is not knowingly in league with those powers, it is,
 just as surely, doing their work.
 am progressive and have al ways stood for advanced legisla- lation. At this time the progress of the world is threatened and the most progressive action that can be taken is a united and absolute devotion to the great task before us. for America and the Allies must win complete victory or the world is plunged in darkness and the progress of the past cen turies lost.
 The business of this Nation is war. Our petty quarrels, per sonal antagonisms and differences of opinion must be forgotten, or at least submerged, for the com mon good. In other words, we must get together as one great nation, with but one aim, one purpose and one effort; the spirit of friendliness and cooperation must take the place of distrust and antagonism, and particularly must this be so between the en- ployers and employees. Surely now is the time for the great in- dustrial and financial interests of the state to prove indubitably that their patriotism is true blue and intelligent; now is the time to show clearly by actions as we'll as by words, that no advantage is to be taken during the war of or ganized labor. Only in this way can the lingering suspicious of conservative labor be removed and the anti-patriotic and trouble breeding propaganda of radical labor agitators be rendered harm less. Industrial peace cannot be expected as long as 'there is no strong sense of partnership be- tween capital and labor";; it can- not be anticipated until labor and capital cease to be suspicious of each other. In this state their differences now are more fancied than real-they can be and must ] be brought together in spirit of friendliness and mutual under realizing that their in terests are in common, that strife

and antagonism are detrimental J to each, and at this time danger ous to the progress of the world.
 In ordinary times it should be and is, 1 believe, the purpose of the State officials to conduct the affairs of government in an econ omical manner, and in these ex- traordinary times. it is not only a duty but an imperative necessity that the strictest economy be practiced-that all waste, even to the minutest degree, be stopped. Red tape and cumbersome gov ernmental machinery must be eliminated, man-power and dol lars must be released for war purposes The financial burdens of the war will, of necessity, fall hard upon all of our citizens, and 1 pledge my best efforts to the reduction of state and county ex- penditures.
 In general, 1 pledge myself, if elected Governor, to devote my time and whatever of ability I may possess to
 Speeding up war work.
 Promoting a spirit of mutual understanding and confidence between employer and employee, safeguarding the rights of each.
 Destroying the influence of the I. w. w.
 Promoting efficiency and econ- omy in the State Government and all the departments thereof.
 At this time when our govern ment is imploring its citizens to invest every dollar-yes, every cent-possible in Liberty Bonds, and Thrift Stamps; when the need is so imperative: when the Red Cross, Y. M. c. A. and kin dred organizations must be sup piled, by voluntary contributions, with funds to carry on the great and necessary work to which they are dedicated, it seems to me to be the part, at least of self ishness to expend any large sum of money for campaign purposes, or to even expend what would, in ordinary times, be deemed a reasonable" amount. Firm in the belief that the citizenship of Arizona is competent to select its public servants without the ad- vice of paid personal representa- tives of candidates, and firm in the belief that anyone who may so conduct his campaign will be rebuked at the polls, 1 submit my candidacy.
 Sincerely yours,
 SIDNEY P. OSBORN.

An Announcement
Phoenix. Ariz., May 2, 1918. MT. George Jay,
 Warren, Arizona,
-O-O-

Warren, Arizona,
 My dear Sir:-Yours of the 18th ult., asking whether or not 1 am or intend to be a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Gov ernor of Arizona, and if so, where stand on various matters of great public importance, received, In reply thereto, permit me to say, most emphatically, that I am a candidate for my party's nom ination for that exalted office, and in announcing my candidacy, do so sensible of the great honor such a nomination and election will confer, and realizing the grave responsibilities attached thereto.
 It has been said by some that there are no issues or principles at stake at this time, and that the only reason a candidate can give for his candidacy is that of personal ambition. This cannot be true-is not true. One who is a candidate for the great office of Governor solely for the personal qualification and honor attached thereto is foolish, and anyone who seeks the office to represent any individual or group of indivi- duals other than the whole peo- pie, is worse-he is a knave,
 This is the most serious and critical period in our country's history, and the paramount issue is and must be Americanism as opposed to all disloyal and semi disloyal people, whether individ- uals or organizations, who impede or hinder, or attempt to hinder our government in any way in carrying on this war to an ulti- mate and complete victory. The time when one could be passively loyal has passed. One must now be one hundred per cent Ameri- can or a traitor. There is no halfway ground. We must either aid the boys in the trenches or stab them in the back. That there are those who would hinder the government in this hour of national peril, there is no doubt, and it is against this ele- ment. whoever they may be and wherever they may be, that the forces of law and the forces of public opinion must be directed. 1 cannot, do not and will not, for a moment, countenance the organ ization known as the I. w. w. an organization that believes in and teaches destruction of life, destruction of property opposition to law and order, and which de- clares that the question of right and wrong does not concern it in it's activities. "
 Is it not of sinister significance, or at least a sinister coincidence, that both the Imperial German Government and the l. w. w. base their policies on the principle that the question of right and wrong does not corcern them in their activities? An organiza- tion whose principles are such is a menace to the progress of this nation at all times, and particu- larly so at this time. and must not be permitted to exist, but in combating it's activities and eradicating it's influence, we must move quickly-we must act fear lessly-but always in a lawful manner. Arizona is and must be a law-abiding state, and indiyid- uals cannot be permitted to take l
