Services in honor of drafted men were, held yesterday morning at the Grace M. E. church when the Rev. J. H. Mitchell and District Attorney B. K. Wheeler each made a short address. The names of the nine men who were drafted from the membership of the church were read and inscribed o roll of honor in the church. In his address Mr. Wheeler sait! "This community owes a debt to our boys, who are not merely lighting at the call of duty, but who are to battle for a principle. You boys who are present this morning should keep in mind that your loved ones remaining behind are thinking of you off ^Jn the trenches and praying for you continu ally, and we will he waiting for your return to us bringing with you an honorable victory." "It will be no easy victory,** said the Rev. Mitchell In his address. "So man can yet forecast the end. Both men and money still are needed. But we believe the war will be waged until the autocrats are swept away forever. "This is a day of serious import in the history of our city. With the leave taking of our men for the training camp, Butte is saying to the nation, 'This is our part, our contribution in human sacrifice to the cause for which we ai*f at war.' It is proper and cer tainly religious that we as citizens should pay tribute of love and honor to these men who tonight break every civi< tie and give themselves over to the military authorities and to the un certain life of the soldier."

Comb and toothbrush and paste so good. To keep you fresh when you eat your food; Soap and wash rag. good and rough. To keep you from growing dirty and tough ; Paper and pencil, too. are here for Eti.d SX t heart. find vithin To write to * too; Other things bag. But my pencil fails and my thoughts grow lag; But each woman and girl who helped this work. Both hope and pray you'll never shirk. But stand for your colors, true and brave. Until all nations you'll help to save From war and terrible sorrow. That joy may reign in a bright to morrow. God bless the -bause, may His guiding hand Bring peace to each and every land; So that again wo may find our joys When you return home, dear soldier boys."

RULE ON ALIENS Derive Same Benefits and Must Bear Same Responsibilities as Americans. Aliens of the counties of Montana under the supervision "f the first dis- . trict exemption board are subject to military service the same as native born Americans, according to an order issued last night in Butte by th*- dis trict board, which held a short session i in this city. The order says: "We feel that aliens who have re sided in the United States for four years or more and who have had equal benefit and protection of our laws and institutions should be placed upon the same basis as American citizens. It would seem unfair and unjust to accord to such persons rights, privileges and benefits not be ing possessed by Americans. "In -Arriving at such conclusion we feel that we were acting to the best interest and advantage of the gov ernment. as well as < t such class of (crimination applied, ii ■e prejudice e after the men, which 'Xisting conditions. The injustice of ; riving to such alien residents the ben- ' •fit not only of exemption, but of em- | »loyment in the various industries to ill positions vacated l-y our citizens. aliens. If such rule or d against Americans were would surely result in ra and consequent « i x il stri departure of conscripted would seem highly undesirable under existing conditions. The injustice giving to such alien res «lents the ben efit ployi fill pparent that discussion is necessary. : numerous cases of conscription ens proof required by law has n»»t made or submitted before the i or district boards, and any such alleged alienship has been disregarded. ! Many aliens, although claiming ex-EEE emptiest with the local board at the time of physical c\ ruination, have upon their certification responded tc the call aryl joined other conscripts i for mobilization camps without oh- . jection or complaint. In fact, atten n has been directed to many such — ro have evinced their loyal and pa- ! trlotic spirit at the time of examina- j tion. I "If all classes of Mens are to be exempted who have not made deela- : tion of intention to become citizens ! such great inroads will be made in the ' ranks of our American citizens that it . ill be difficult, if not quite impossible. for local boards to fill the required quotas within the time limit. The mber of men discharged on account ' of physical disability, dependents and 1 agricultural and industrial grounds makes it quite apparent that if such alien residents must be exempted the 1 call to be made by the local boards must be doubled or trebled. ! Members of the I. W. W. organ- | ization claiming exemption have not been looked upon with favor and as pears to be more of such organization claiming to be aliens ' than any other. It will be almost im possible to recall the number of aliens already conscripted and sent to mobil ization camps, and we would disllk« h to see the government take action in this regard. We have felt that We have l»cen subserving the best interest of th. government In the pol icy pursued as above outlined, and if mistake in this respect has been made it is solely one of judgment.'* City Board's Position. The city exemption >>oard was yes terday questioned by the provost mar shal, through Adjutant General ;nan, concerning the reason for their refusal to grant exemption to liens in Butte, in reply the board, through Mayor Maloney, the board chairman, made clear their position in the following terms: "Adjt. Gen Phil Greenan. Helena, Mont. Dear Sir: In response to your telephonic communication of this aft ernoon asking information for Pro vost Marshal General Crowder of the position taken by the local board of the city of Butte with regard to the conscription <«f foreigners, desire to advise you that the board has taken the position and now takes n| he posi tion that foreigners, other than Jap anese and Germans, should be given j no advantage or preference whutso- j ever over American citizens under th*« selective draft. "They are in every manner on an equal footing with our citizens in ! arious industrial enterprises in the ! city of Butte, and we think that they should have no preference accorded them over American citizens. ill be necessary to call very many of our best young Americans to fill the quota required without favorit ism. and it appears to be a rank in justice to permit foreigners preference over Americans and then be further i benefited by opportunity t> fill the po sitions vacated by young Americans.
