HI, MANAGER ei OPPOSITION TO DRAFT IN CANADANEARS END Snap Has Been Taken Out of Anti-Crusade Ail Meetings May Be Stopped Montreal, Que, Sept. 3. Two more arrests had been made today as a re sult of anti-couscriptionists attempting to force their way into, a pawnshop in order to secure gunB which were dig played in the window. The antis smashed the plato glass and secured the guns, but the police were quickly on the scene and managed to get most of the weapons back. The crowd was in an ugly mood and threat ened to shoot the officers, who were forced to draw their revolvers in order to hold their two prisoners. Reinforcements from the nearby po lice stations soon scattered the crowd. Important revelations are expected from a thrilling fight in the vicinity of Lachutc, a small place about thirty miles from Montreal, in which a young desperado was wounded by the police in a running gun fight and ended his lifo by putting his revolver to his head, blowing his brains out. Three ether companions of the dead man are hiding in the bushes and the police ex pect to round them up quickly. It is thought they may be connected with the Montreal outbreaks. That the snap has been taken out of the nnti-enisade is evident by the tone of the speakers at Sunday nftcr l'oon's meeting on Fletcher's Field. There was little sign of fight, in the speeches made and some of the orators advocated stopping the meeting alto gether. Auti-conscription banners are barred from the labor parade here today. Soap and Coffee Cheaper at Wholesale It is generally darkest just before dawn and some one said that every cloud had a silver lining, or words to that effect. What wo intended to say was that Pcct Bros. Son) company an nounced a decline wholesalo of 2.r cents a case for its soaps and the Lenox soap peoplo aro about to throw in a case of soap with a ten box sale. Then the Ar bnckle people announced a drop of half a cent on their coffee. This will not make soap or coffee any cheaper to the Salem retail trade from the fact that the Salem grocers had the foresight to buv heavily in these lines several months ago and have been selling reul-1- under the wholesale market. But it does show that possibly aomo of the big fellows making soap and handling cottec have tceilecl to ease up on tne dear public, especially as there is now a food commission in existence.

I am a German by birth and I am an American by heart and hand. I will tell you why I left Germany. There were ten in oar family and we wero poor, like the most of my countrymen who came to the good United States of America to get away from oppression, and it was a hard matter to keep the wolf from the door at times. "When I landed in this country I secured work At once and received more money for one month 's work than I got in Germany for one year's work. I lent for my folks and 1 am proud that they are all true American citi zens and will answer the president's call to arms against Germany or any other country when needed. "I don't see how my countrymen can go back on Uncle Sam. They came here without a cent and made money lere; now they want to fight the coun try that feeds them. The kaiser never did anything for them or for me. If he had we would be there yet. "All he did was to start' this cruel war and starve all the people there and make soldiers out of everybody and force them to work for his dirty 12 rents a day, with a fourth of a pound of meat and a loaf of black bread. I hope to tee the day when he is kick ed out of Germany and a president put in bis place. "You ilon't see any Americans .go ing ove there for jobs or to any other 'nation- They are all happy here and doa't owe any allegiance to any king or kaiser. "I hope Uncle Sam will win. Hur rah for President Wilson! "Stop all foreign papers printed in; the United States, if they can't read English, let them learn, and keep all foreign languages out of the schools.

New Books Received " at Public Library Among the new books recently receiv ed at the Salem public library are the following: "Japan to America," a symposium of papers by political leaders and rep resentative citizens of Japan on condi tions in Japan and on the relations be tween Japan and the United States" is published under the auspices of the Japan Society of America. In "The boy problem," William Forbush handles his problem from in fancy to manhood, with special atten tion to the "teens." His purpose is to help parents and workers to understand boys. Among hia topics are "By-laws of boy lite, " Boy problem in the church" and "The boy in the home." 'The life and art of Kdwin Booth and his contemporaries" is a series of sketches of the great actors of the end of the nineteenth century Mod jeska, Ellen Terry, Henry Irving and Joseph Jefferson and others. This week s new fiction consists of: "The eternal feminine" by Mary Raymond Shipman Andrews, "The Klondike clan" by Hall Young and "The conquest" by Nyburg. "The eternal feminine" is, like "The etern al masculine," made up of clever short stories, but unlike it, pictures the fair er sex. "The conquest" has been nam ed by Boynton, one of our best critics! as one of the best ten for 1110. It is the dramatic storv of the quest of pow er, attained by a young lawyer but Each Local Board Sends Five Extra Men A Total of 22,785 By George Martin (United Press staff correspondent) Washington, Sopt. 3. While Amer ica's hundred million men, women and children planned farewell celebrations for the first 206,100 drafted men who start campward Wednesday, the 4,5,17 local boards, today continued the toil of aeutally getting them started. The lists are practically complete. The men have been notified of the ex act hour they must report. Following recepit of strict orders from the government that the full quo ta of each board must entrain for camp Sept- 5 if possible, each board is noti fying 5 alternates to report with the ararieu group. "These five men," said the official order, "are intended to serve in case any of the men notified fail to report. and in order that the local board may not De piacea in tne position of fail ing to entrain the exact number of men callod for, with the promptness and precision tnat snouid characterize all matters relating to the formation of nie armies oi tne united states." This means that the 4557 local boards will have on hand 22,785 extra men to take the places of possible absentees in mo regular lists. Prompt search will be instituted for the man who fails to appear. One of the alternates will be entered on the lists in his place and sent to camp.

Peter loses little charm in , the retelling, which puts him within the appreciation of the younger read era, . i State Training School Opens Last of Month The Oregon state training school will open for its fall term the last week in September or at the latest date, Oc tober 1. This late date has been decided upon by Will S. nale, the superinten dent, that all the farm work and gath ering of crops may be done before his 1.S0 boys take up their fall stndies. At the state fair this year, Mr. Hale says ho will have a larger industrial display than heretofore. And besides what the boys can make in a practical way, such as clothing and shoes, there will be exhibits and charts on educa tional and preventative lines, showing what is being done to make the boy a better citizen. The average daily cost of feeding each of the boys in the reform school is from seven to ten cents a day. This low cost for tho table is due to the fact that fully 300 of the 400 acres at the reform school is under cultivation and that the time of the boys especially in summer is given to running and the care of fruit and in the fall to the har vesting of crops and canning of fruits. Beans, Mr. Hale says, arc canned by the ton and fruits in proportion. By the work done and preparations made for winter, the actual, cost of food for the boys is brought to a low figure. MUSE USE CENTS During the civil war there was in tense pride among German-American m Franz Sigel, a hero of tne uornian revolution of 1H48, and who was a di vision commander of great ability in tho Union army. He was a friend of Lincoln. For many years after Appo matox that German who was fortunate enough to have served with hiiu was pleased to proclaim that fact, and "I fought niit Sigel,'" became a phrase of honor. There was never any doubt about the intense Americanism of General Sigel, and his son has recently issued au appeal to those Germans who avc now citizens of this country, asking them some pointed questions and bring ing home to them some food for solemn thought. He asked: "Do you gloat over the German success Did it gratify you to read that the Russian revolution had crippled the Russian army so that for a long time it might not be used ef fectively against the. Germans If so, you have not solved the problem you have had to meet as you should and must solve it. Though the accident of birth makes you a citizen, yours is not an American but a German spirit; it was not boin in a new loyalty as your body was born in a new country." Mr. Sigel avows his right to ask these questions, and his justification of the comment which follows thcni: "I am a full-blooded German," says this son of a German hern, "descended from German ' Forty-eighters. ' My father, General Fran. (Sigel, his broth ers and my maternal grandfather were, driven from Germany on account of their participation in the revolution of 184H." Democracy seems to have expired in the German commoiiweulth when men - When congress gets throuirh with raising additional taxes, it is probable the man who smokes a five cent cigar may unci ne will have to have a penny dbdov on nis purcnases and that a six cent smoke will he quite eommon and a lour tor a quarter cigar ottered in stead of the straight five center.

The police will be notified of the ab sentee's failure to report anil if it ap pears that his delinquency was delib erate, he will be arrested as a deserter from the United States army and deliv ered to the nearest military station as a nrisoner. If anv of the group started from headquarters of the local board fail to reach the cantonment camp and report. and there appears to be no good reason why they should have so failed, they will be hunted down and arrested as deserters and sent to the nearest mil itary center as prisoners.

Hoon there after there begun the consistent and sustained fiismarckian effort to make the German peoplo serfs, and to ele vate a state, personified by the ilohen zollern dynasty and the military caste. Carl Schurz was of th same type of valiant and sacrificial democrat us Sigel, and became eminent as a pure American, in sympathy with the life purposes of this republic and impressed with its mission to the world. These men fought valiantly, although unsuc cessfully, to establish a republic on Germun soil. Failure made them none the less apostles of the rights of men, and they took up the work hero which enthroned privilege denied them there. The son of Sigel has a right to ap peal to his kindred in race on an oc casion like this, when liberty is iu the balances, and the future of civilization is at stake. Germans everywhere, if they arc real Americans, ought to give him car. The moral influence of the mass of German Americans upon world affairs can be very great at this junc ture. If they will align ith Sigel in' winged Americanism, in hostility to inonarchialism, they can drive out the traitors and destroy the spies. The dead silence of patriotic, Germans in fhiH land has been a pall upon the na tional sentiment. A united declaration by them of loyalty to this government, and of fixed hostility to the f rightful ness which characterizes the riding force of the German empire, would in spire true Americans with renewed be lief in the sterling citizenship of the German element in our population. It would make the future easier for all. It would restore confidence. It would give back to the German strain in our population the high place which it once held in public sentiment. , I 1 a I l Our vacant lot gardens will havej plenty of potatoeless days without Mr, Hoover needing to bother himself ahout j 'em. Government Wants More Stenographers AVbjle several parties have been dis appointed in making application to th government for employment in its vni-' ions branches, yet there seems to bo- call for more stenographers and type writers. At least the civil service dis trict with licudqiiai'turs at Scattlo on tinues to send out notices to the news papers that there is an urgent denmu'l for such clerical workers. Yesterday ex aminations were taken by nine and if any of these are successful in getting positions, probably others from Saloiu will take heart and send in for appli cation blanks and information. Tliosi who did not take the chance for u-n examination yesterday when it cume to Salem uud aro still willing to consider might write Herbert F. Ward, 303 Post office building, Seattle. Should any tit those who stood tho examination Thurs day ge rewarded with a real govern ment job, others iu Salem who are com petent will try.
