ROW OVER CLERKS OFFICE.

During the session Of the county COM

some sharp exchanges during the contro-
versv which followed the reading Of Mr.

Trouble has been brewing IN the clerk
office since Mr.. MattsOn decided 10 ap-
point two of the youngest clerks IN the
office as chief and second deputies. 1 ne
other clerks in the office who were older

that when the application for an increase
in salary was made Mr.. STANFORD was
prepared to oppose 1t, which he did Wig

that he had designated Z. ?. Brown as
chief deputy and w. Van Dyke as sec

allowing of overtime and in order TO avoid
the overtime charge asked that the cnleL
1eputy's salary be fixed at S6S-5O ana thdt
of the second deputy at $3.50.

Nevada from Illinois on a charge of OBJ
tanning goods under false pretenses- The
amount involved is said to be something
over $500 Upon his arrival here the sheT-

Former Mayor Glasmann broke loose IN
a lengthy article published in his MORN
ing paper here Sunday in which he de-
nounced District Attorney Halverson and
others and defending the city eouncilmen
who are accused of misapprOpriating the
city's money for their personal use. The
result was that Mr. Halverson appeared
before Judge J. A Howell in the district
court yesterday morning with petition
for q grand jury to investigate the
charges made by the ex-mayor as well as
other charges Judge Howell stated that
he had not read the article referred to and
therefore took the matter under advise
ment.
For some time there has been consider
able enmity between the former mayor
and the district attorney and at the pres
ent time there is libel suit penang
against GIasmann brought by Mr. Hal
version. This feeling between the two has
been made more bitter by the prominent
part the district attorney has taken in the
prosecution of the charges against the
city Councilmen. which so far has re

HAS A PLAN TO
STOP FRAUDS
State Chemist Herman Harms Urges
Honest Labelling of All Food
Products.
TALKS ON ADULTERANTS
AID TO STOPPING SALE GIVEN BY
MERCHANTS.

State Chemist Herman Harms lectured
to the Mems club Of the Congregational
church last evening on Food Adutera-
tons"
Mr.. Harms believes that relief from
deliberations lies in the honest labelling
Of food stuffs and allowing the consumer
20 judge as to whether the adulteration
is harmful or not. He also said that
when an adulterated article is found. the
Butchers and Grocers' association is in
formed. If in turn they notify the indi-
viduaI members and thus the sale of
adulterated articles in this city and state
has been checked to a large extent.
A food is considered adulterated when
another substance is substituted for it..
when any valuable constituent is ex-
tracted. when an imitation is sold for
the genuine. when 1t is colored, mixed or
powdered, or when poisonous ingredients
are added, when it is decayed. filthy or
labeled so as to deceive the purchaser.
Kinds of AduIterants.
He. said further that there two classes
Of adulterants;
First, those Injurious to the health, in
Guiding chemical preservatives. coal tar,
entltne dyes. mineral colOrs, wood alco-
hol, saceharine and foreign impurities;
Second, those non-injurious to the
health, which are numerous and may be
classed as frauds.
He also said that it was the poorer peo-
pie who suffered the most. as the rich
were able to patronize the better class OF
merchants and demand the highest class
Of goods manufacturer by reputable men.
"Let the Label TeII.''
Il have always contended to Let the
Label Tell 4" said Mr.. Harms, in speak
ing Of the cure " land inform the con-
sumner that the article he purchases con-
tains a foreign ingredient, whether il be
2 pTeservative COlorinE or other sub
stances. An honest article invites the
searchlight Of truth 10 be thrown upOT
it, while an article sailing under false
celors states as little as possible regard
ing its composition and frequently Is
ashamed to have the name of its manu-
facturer and place of business upon the
label Let the label be an honest state
ment of the facts and the consumer b'
the Judge. for he certainly has as mucl
right TO know what he consumes as the
manufacturer who has assumed the righ
and liberty of putting into food TIT
foreign and unnatural ingredients.
Mr.. Harms also stated that the repUta
BILE merchants were aiding the cause. H
said that the wholesale poisoning scare
are not warranted by facts.
Mr.. Harms illustrated his differen
points and adulterants by showing sam
pies of foods that were fakes and other
that were genuine
