GREATEST BATTLE OF WAR
EXPECTED SOON WEST LINE
PARIS, April 12.—While the ad
vance of the Germans along the
Champagne front and in fact along
the entire western lines has been
halted everywhere, the Minister ot
War declares that they may soon
•expect the greatest battle in the
history of the world.
Germany has been moving collosal
forces to the west front, consisting
as well as Germans of Austrians
and Bulgars. Airmen report the
constant arrival of troop trains at
Lille and back of the lines down to
the Argonne, while even the Meuse
positions are getting their quota.
Added to this the persistent bomb
ardment -with a concentration of ar
tillery fire northeast of Rheims at
the point closest to Paris, the ex
perts predict that Germany is about
to hurl a gigantic force against
the western lines in a terrific effort
to break their way through. Von
Hindenberg Maekensen, Ludendorf
and Falkenhayn hstve all arrived at
Sedan while the Kaiser has head
quarters at Coblenz.
LONDON, April 12.—General
Haig reports a continued advance
with bloody and determined fighting
OPPOSITION TO PLANS
FOR CONSCRIPTION GROWS
WASHINGTON, D. C„ April 12.—
In the House, the administration
views with regret the agitation
against conscription is accumulating
strength and is growing fast. Volun
teer systems are favored by what is
believed to be a majority of Con
gressmen, although no. proper can
vas has as yet been made. It is
believed by the house that those
who would be conscripted would
volunteer in any event.
Ten thousand militiamen were
mustered into the regular federal
service today, making a total thus
in the federal service of sixty thou
sand. It is announced by the war
department that five hundred thou
sand regulars and militia are now
needed at once for the government
plans.
WASHINGTON, D. C., April 12.—
A bill was passed in the House
which is of epoch making scope, and
will be out of the committee’s
hands on Friday. It amends the
criminal code and permits the En
tente to recruit their citizens who
are sojourning in America for for
eign service. Inasmuch as a good
many of the Entente nations have
had their citizens and subjects come
to America to escape military ser
vice the far-reaching results of
such a bill can be understood. It
will enable the governments to re
cruit all their slackers.
It was expected to pass.

Editor Industrial Worker: —
Dear Sir:—The local saloonmen
and others of the wet contingent
are now putting forth the ridiculous
argument that they require a furth
er extension ' of time than up to
September first to dispose of their
stock of John Barleycorn and other
poisonous liquid refreshments. No
alcoholic liquors have been shipped
into Nome since the following items
were entered in the city clerks
books last fall. The local booze
emporiums were assessed as follows
for stock on hand and fixtures,
November 10th 1916.
Board of Trade Saloon, wholesale
and retail.$10,000
Nevada Saloon.7,500
Eagle Saloon.4,500
Headquarters Saloon.2,500
Nome Brewing Co.2,500
Montana Salocn.2,000
Northern Saloon.1,500
Angeles Salono.1,000
Horseshoe Saloon.600
Golden Gate Bar.300
Total $32,400!
On account of not having a iiquor
license at that time the Dawson
was assessed nix for wet stuff. But
was assessed $200 and $400 for bar
fixtures etc. All of the above named ;
saloons (except the Angeles and,
the Dawson) have been peddling
hootch and other poisonous dope j
continuously since the close of na
vigation. There are 294 days from
the 10th of last November to the
first of next September. There are
9 licensed saloons doing business in j
this little burg and each of them !
will have to dispose of only about
$12.25 worth of booze etc. per day
for 294 days to get rid of their
$32,400 combined stocks which they
staed they had on hand last No
vember 10th. In the event that any
of the boozeologists may have a
surplus of wet goods on hand Sept.
1st we know of no clause in the
bone dry law which prevents them
from shipping the overs to the out
side before the close of navigation,
or better stjM they can dump it into
the Bering Sea.
