Camp Dodge, Ia. Dec. 26—Camp officers are on the lookout for any evi- dences of ground glass in canned goods since Major General W. H. Car- ter, commanding the central depart- ment at Chicago in a communication to. Brigadier General R. N. Getty, act- ing division commander, advised that the United States district attorney in Chicago has reported to him the find- ing of ground glass in certain brands: of hominy and tomatoes. In view of the report to General Carter all army posts in the district and probably all over the country will be warned to make careful ex- amination of these products before placing them before the soldiers as food. Instructions have been given com- pany and separate organization com- imanders of the Kight-eighth division to watch these foods carefully for any evidence of glass or other foreign sub- stances. Large quantities of the can- ned goods, General Carter's communi- cation says, have been sold to the army. While the warning is given for the military it is believed some of the products might fall into the hands of civilians as well and they are cau- tioned to guard against possible in- jury. Thus far no ground glass has been found in the food being used at Camp Dodge. Every precaution will be taken. More Men Coming. While there has been no official an- nouncement in the matter, predictions here still are that the final increments in the first national army will be call- ed to this camp immediately after the holiday rush, when the railoads have overcome the usual holiday jam. There are nearly 24,000 men from ‘Minnesota, Jowa, North Dakota and part of Illinois in the last two groups and this’ number, if called at “once, would constitute the largest number received here ih one assignment.

Believing that every citizen and taxpayer should know. what a candidate for Public Office stands for, 1 make Af Z @ I beheve thet Public Utilities should be owned and controlled by the City. I base this opinion on the fact that wherever cities have taken over Public Utilities they have been money makers for those cities. I realize that owing to the past conducting of the City of Bismarck it is impossible for the City to now take over the Public Utilities that are being operated in the City; and that being true everything should be done that is possible to control the prices that should be charged and the services rendered in order that rates should be uniform and all served alike—in other words, no favorites should be played and every man, woman and child or corporation should have the-same consideration. If elected I promise to use my influence to bring about such a condition. I further pledge myself especially to fight to the last effort for an economical administration of the City and will be governed by no clique, faction, financial interest or individual, and in every official action will carry out the will of the people, for the people and the people only, and I emphatically promise to manage the affairs of the City with the same care, caution and fidelity that I would my own.
