Report to the war department today
showed that in the first five days, la
the campaign to recruit the army up
to war strength 607 men have en
listed. ' Reports received today cover only
48 of the 84 recruiting districts. The
ra.te of enlistment for the last few
days was more than double the aver
age rate,
Reports show that the 607 recruits
obtained were picked from a total
of 2083 applicants.
The figures show that at the pres
ent rate it would take more than six
months to obtain the 20,000 recruits
provided for by the Hay resolution.
BOYS OF FEW YEARS
AT COLUMBUS CARRY
BIG GUNS TO SCHOOL
Raided New Mexico City Re
sumes Some of Its Activi
ties in Times of Peace.
Columbus, N. M.. March 21. (I. N.
S.) School reopened Monday. Several
boys of 13 or 14, who have to ride
for miles across the mesa to reach
the town, walked In with man-sise
revolvers and cartridge belts 'strappsd
around them.
Activity of the mllitay forces ;s
again at top speed. The aviation
squadron was up again this morning
and for an hour Columbus was given
a chance to see eight blrdroen maneu
ver at once.
Troop Wagons Are Packed.
That a movement of some kind 1s
contemplated is apparent by the care
in which the big motor trucks and
the smaller troop wagons have bein
packed and prepared during the day.
But the movement as far as civilian
Columbus is concerned might Just as
well not take place.
Some morning, when they awake,
the citizens will find blank stretches
of tramped earth where a tent city
existed the night before. And even
the troop camped next to the vacant
place will know nothing of where the
missing organization has gone.
The town, in the absence of many
of the residents. Is overrun with dogs.
They are of all kinds and descriptions
and appear everywhere. Big aog
little dogs, wooly ones and the hair
less kind try to make friends with
anyone who looks like ready food.
Soldiers' Vets Xft Behind,
The different troops "have contrib
uted to the general surplus of animel
life by leaving behind on orders of
the commanding officers all pets and
mascots.
Two burros that formerly were mas
cots of troops of a cavalry regiment,
are now doing duty as mounts for
the messenger boys of the Western
Union, aird a parrot that belonged to
an infantry company is acting as an
nouncer for a Chinese restaurant. The
parrot can say-"Pork, eh ops, steak and
taslTuf 'atra - eggs," and Has? trwe than

Expressing herself emphatically In
the belief that Republican opposition

la little short of high treason to the
country, Maria Iv T. Hidden, at a
meeting of the Jackson c'ub at Cen

by women and at which women wlch

plained why she has become a Demo

Invited to run for the legislature on
the .Democratic ticket, ller castra
tion of the Republican party lacked
nothing In force of expression.
Stands for Political Preferment,
In the days of such men as Lincoln
and Seward, she said. It stood tor
something, but It now stands for noth.
ing but political preferment and has
no ideals such as actuate the Demo
cratic party "under the peerless lead
ership of President Wilson."
Mrs. Hidden said she had tried to
go to the legislature and failed, "ths
people preferring to choose the twelve
apostles of the Oregonlan," and that
she would not be an active candidate.
If the Democrats, however, wanted
to get out and elect her she would be
glad to serve.
Q race Be Graff Suggests Slogan.
The meeting was presided over by
Mrs. John Nissan.
Other speakers were Miss Grace De
Graff, who talked of the objects and
accomplishments of the Ford peace
party, and Miss Mary Harper, who for
10 years was superintendent of schools
in Washington county, Idaho. Miss
De Graff suggested that the party
which takes for its slogan this year
"Peace, prohibition and petticoats,
will be most likely to win In the na
tions campaign.
Judge Gatens said a few words in
behalf of his candidacy for reelec
tion as circuit judge. Robert A. Mil
ler, president of the club, announced
that a committee from the club is
to meet with the Woodrow Wilson
league to discuss the question of put

London, March 21. (L N. & The
recrui- .ng muddle brought about by
Lord Derby's promise to married men
that all bachelors should be called up
first, which pledge, it is claimed, has
been broken, threatens serious trouble
unless promptly and decisively han
dled. Tho difficulties in the way of
the government and the solution of
them are causing the cabinet a deal of
hard thinking and much anxiety.
Bachelors Are Shirking.
There is no doubt that thousands of
able-bodied young bachelors through
out the country are shirking military
duty and until they are enlisted a large
majority of the married men feel that
they have been tricked into attesting.
Mass meetings are being held all
over Engrland protesting against the
broken pledges and urging the govern
ment to carry, out its prpmlse. A
thousand single young men, for in
stance, have recently found employ
ment in callings that are exempt, and
cannot be touched by the law as it now
stands.
What the solution will be is doubt
ful, but according to the military au
thorities the need for more men and
large numbers of them is Immediate
and imperative.
One suggestion which commends it
self to many is that the married men
be released from their attestation and
that compulsory service be extended
to include every man, both married
and singie
