NOGALES, Ariz.-The camp can

lied Tuesday from selling over its
counter any ice cream or cold soft
drinks, by order of the commanding
officer, Colonel Edelblute, of Rath.
drum. This action comes as a result
OF an over-indulgence in such deli
cacles by the men of the regiment
Following the issuing of canteen
checks on Sunday, and general sick
ness among the men as result.
Such illness is not serious but is
generally noticeable 10 the camp.
Coming In from drills or from fatigue
duty the soldiers, heated and thirsty,
give way to excessive Indulgence and
the day following it is a lucky COM
pany that has half Its enlisted men
Ia the ranks for drill or half its men
from which to draw its details.
The men are protesting vigorously
against this action, as also against
the adjustment of iced water FROM
company mess tents, but whether
such refreshments will again be
allowed is matter of conjecture.
The Medical Corps correspondent
says:-Too much watermelon, pop,
erackerlack and other "proper" camp
food (procured in town. caused a.
little sickness in camp last Saturday.
The Co. B. correspondent says:-

AT least one of the republi-

can candidates for governor
is a staunch prohibitionist.
d. w. Davis was lined up
against the saloon in Ameri-
can Falls years ago when it
meant loss of business to be
identified with the dry cause.
Like the governor, Mr.. Davis
is advocating statewide pro-
hibition by constitutional
amendment in this campaign.
This principle, together with
his practical business exper-
fence will doubtless have
weight with many voters,
whether his 'taxless state
plan ever amounts to any
thing or not.

just to discredit any official until we
have positive proof that he has done
something wrong. for as YOU all know
a very small story gets very larre in
its travels, so as officers, the board OF
county commissioners have felt it
their duty to not advertise anything
until the right time comes, Now,
this audit is being paid for by the
tax payers Of the whole county and as
soon as 1t Is finished the county COM
missioners are going TO have full
and complete report printed 10 the
papers, so the public will know Just
what has been done and by whom it
was done. We do not feel it Just nor
right to censure anyone until he is
proven incompetent or guilty beyond
a doubt, and as to playing politics
there is nothing doing 10 that respect.
Every official, democrat or republican,
that has done wrong during the
period OF this audit, is going to be
shown up in full, but the people must
not get so impatient, for the officials
, must be right before we commence
! suit against any one, both for our
,, own protection and for the benefit of
all concerned. We cannot run out
and tell every circumstance that is
found In the audit, but il the public
will have patience, will promise you
all upon my word and honor, that you
will have the complete findings of
this audit.
Now, l wish to say word 10 behalf
OF Mr.. Reinhard, as many are saving
that he and his crew are loafng on
the lob. will freely state that this
report is untrue, as he and his crew
are working long hours and are work
Ing hard, and the reason this audit is
taking the time it is. is because of the
conditions found in the records OF the
county officers.
Another word in behal! OF County
Attorney Wernette, whom some have
accused OF losing desire Ia the work.
Now, there is nothing. in such state
ments, for he is doing all he can and
as fast as he can, and he is not work
ing any political scheme. but will
serve all concerned alike, regardless
or political creed. lie has had great
deal of work to do for the county and
is working honestly and s,raightror.
ward.
some criticism has been made on
account of the county commissioners
reducing the salaries of yarious
Officers, but not of their own. In this
matter will say that the salary of The
county commissioners is fixed by an
act Of our legislature, and the
have not the power tn
either reduce or raise the salary so
liked, but, should the legislature in
The future change the salary Of the
county commissioners, will gladly
abide by such chlnge.
AS am candidate for reelection

second District, l have only one
promise to make the voters Of The
'ounty, and that is that l will act
honestly and fearIessly, and
