report to General Plummer. First
Lieut.. David Maxwell was appointed
ad%jutant and supply officer and FIRST
Lieut.. Edwin H. WEIGH was ordered

Capt. Gene Picard of the French
army, the first foreign officer to ar
rive at Camp Dodge is conducting lee
lures daily at Y. M. c.. A. bu ldings.
"Kecp close to the Y. M. C. A. advised
Captain Picard. "They do everything
for a soldier that is possible, and their
hot coffee and cocoa helps make a
man comfortable in cold days."
Col. James Harbeson, commanding
the military pol ce, declares the
booze evil is wiped out among the
soldiers of the Eighty-eighth Divis-
and that with it has gone the
evil of women h~angers-on at lamp.
Officers at Camp Dodge, from com

Col. Harbeson spoke of the absence

of Camp Dodge.
Telephone and telegraph linesmen
and operators will be welcome at
Camp Dodge when the third incre-
ment arrives as there battalions will
be organized for the signal corps.
Two signal battalions will be formed
to take a r. of all telephone line
construction and maintenance. The
Third battalion will be a telegraph

been drafted into service and trains
Of from even to twelve cars make
trips on the busy days but a single
track prevents rapid transit. In the
ake-up of a train Of IL coaches we
noticed cars from nine different rail
ways.
An auditorium seating 5000 per-
sons; a library 40x140 feet, and a
woman's rest building will be COM
pleted on Depot street within the
next few weeks, according to Major
NJ. J. Butler, in charge of the work.
Work or the base hospital building
is progressing SO rapidly that it is
believed they will be ready for NOV
ing the hospital from it's temporary
quarters before November 1. Major
Butler expects the cantonment to be
completed by November rs The
newly authorized 100 additional
buildings are being finished at the
rate of eight per day. The $500
workmen are so we'll disciplined that
work moves forward with precision.
Fourteen buildings at the base hos
pital have been fitted with steam
pipes and the plants that furnish heat
are ready for use. Temporary heat
ing plants have been installed in all
other structures Of the hospital. Six
big boilers furnish the heat for the
hospitals.
1t was announced that the Masons,
Odd Fellows ard Knights of Pythias
would invest $4,000 in a building at
the ]cantonr1ent to be used as a COM
munity center with equipment for the
comforting of deprees in the several or
ders to such as desired to become
members. Gen. Plummer assented
to the plan and the fraternities NAM
ed had the money all raised and were
ready to erect the structure, but the
war department ordered otherwise
and no such building will be provided.
The department does not think it wise
to give official recognition to any sec
ret organization. The three lodges
suggested to the department that
the Knights Of Columbus is a secret
order and that this fraternity was
given recognition. The war depart
ment came back with the rejoinder
that the Knights Of Columbus are not
to give any secret work, but r to
serve members of the Catholic faith
with headquarters the same as the
Y. M. c.. A. serves Protestants.
The Forty-second regiment, com-
prising 2,058 men Of the regular ar
my, has been ordered to the Eighty
eighth division of the National army
at Camp Dodge, according to word
received at division headquarters.
The Forty-second has been stationed
at Fort Douglas, Utah, under canvas.
It's removal to Camp Dodge is made
with a view to providing winter quar-
tiers for the men. No date for the ar
rival has been set.

meat got into camp and it did not

ton department to run it down. At
the instigation Of State Food Inspec-
tor Flynn, charges were filed against
the Morrel Packing Company for
supplying the camp with meat in a
| state of decomposition, but the de-
PENDANT was found not guilty in mum
icipal court because of the ia lure of
witnesses to identify the meat as a
Morrell product. Following the re-
port of Inspector Flynn to the divis-
ION quarterI4aster's office the follow
ing statement was given out by Col.
Bonneycastle:
Gail meats and meat products
bought up for human consumption
will be required to pass the United
States inspector of animal industry
before being allowed into the kitch-
ems of any organization in Camp
Dodge.
+ "A United States Inspector has al
ready taken up duties at the camp
and in the future no meat of a ques-
tionable' quality will be served on the
Eighty-eighth division tables.
"Certain dealers have taken it up
on themselves to make the NATIONAL
army camps dumping grounds and
during the Spanish-American war sue
ceeded to a certain extent. Howev-
er, we do not intend to allow any
thing of a like nature to be practiced
at Camp Dodge" Major Funk, divis-
ion sanitary Inspector, said.
An official announcement from the
war department states that Fort Des
Moines will be used for winter quar-
ters for a battalion Of infantry from
Fort Smelling. Over 1000 men will
be there. The remainder of the Fort
will be converted into a general hos
pital and operated directly under sup
ervision of the surgeon general OF
the army. After departure Of infan-
try next spring, the entire fort will
be converted into a hospital.
: Soldiers at Camp Dodge want the
home newspapers. The Iowa Coun-
Gil of Defense is sending out requests
at the suggestion of Gen. Plummer
to all counties in Iowa asking that M
or. more of the home newspapers be
sent to the cantonment. Similar re-
quests are to be sent to the defense
councils of the other three states
which have soldiers in the camp.

TWO companies Of the Four Hun
bred and Fourth telegraph battery
fron New York and New Jersey re-
ported at Camp Dodge last week and
immediately went on duty to perfect
the telegraph battery here. This is
a most iGrortant branch of the SER
vice. Whcn it is remembered that ar
tillery warfare is based upon telc-
granh.c orders and that the artillery
clears the way for the advance of
the infantry it's Importance becomes
manifest.
Four bands will e%n1iven matters at
the C~antonG1ent. Each of the four in
fantry regiments being organized will
have its own musical units. Each
band viii have % pieces. There are
all kinds Of musicians at the camp.
Hundreds of men are present who
have had experience in some of the
best amateur bands in the country.
Not a few band leaders and instruct
ors are enrolled. When the Negro
regiment arrives a band Will be organ
lied for it.
October Goth was patriotic day in
Des MONIES. Former President Taft
was the honored guest. A great par
ado was featured at the head of
which rode Mr.. Taft and Gen. Plum
mer. The soldiers who did the hon
ors of the occasion were selected be-
cause of superior training and mill
tary bearing. The choice fell to Iowa
and llIonios soldiers. The unit chos-
en- comprised $3.50 men of the Three
Hundred and Thirty-ninth field artil-
Very of Iowa and Illinois, and Com
pany A, Three Hundred and Thir-
teenth Signal Battalion Of Iowa. The
regiment is composed of 5000 men
and the company of $50 men. The wal
department has adopted the follow
ing system of numbering regiments:
Regular Army, l to 100; National
Guard, 100 to 800; National Army,
301 up. The conscrpited men belong
to the National Army.
On account of the inability of the
interurban railroad to transport the
thousands who seek to make a visit
to the city on Wednesdays and Sat-
urdays General Plummer has issued
a decree that leave of absence be
distributed over v days instead of
two. The contract with the govern
ment in the establishment of the
cantonment at Des Moines provided
that soldiers would be transported
from Camp Dodge to the city for ten
cents, the regular price to civilians
being twenty cents. The interurban
people found that it was a losing pro-
position and SO the matter was taken
up with the department and a rate
of Is cents to soldiers was agreed up
on on condition that the interurban
track be doubled and work is already
begun on this improvement. The in
terurban runs ninety trains a day.
Last Sunday it carried over 10000
passengers. Steam locomotives have

EDITORIAL NOTE. - William Lee
Queux, who here chronicles for his
friend, Count Ernst Won HeItzendorff,
the latter's revelations of the inner
life of the imperial German court, has
long been recognized throughout Eu-
rope as the possessOr of it's innermOst
secrets.
The English "Nho's Who" says of
him: ssHe has intimate knowledge of
the secret service of Continental cOun-
tries and is considered by the govern
ment (Of Great Brittany an authority on
such matters" Another authority says:
"Few people have been more closely as
ISOLATED with or know more of the
astounding inner machinery of Ger
many than he"
LeQueux probably has more sources
of secret information at his command
than any contemporary in civil life, and
for the last six years the British Gov
eminent has made valuable use of his
vast store of secret information through
n specially organized department with
which LeQueux works as a voluntary
assistant.

lily increasing quantities In the early
months of 1917, because of the conges.
ton of the railroads and the difficult
ties of transportation, the production
of bituminous coal fell behind the high
mark set in January and February a
year ago. As a result of the patriotic
and earnest endeavor of the railroad
officials and the coal operators and
representatives of mine workers who
have volunteered their services to the
federal government in this emergency,
production has been speeded up within
the last few months, and the output OF
soft coal, which In May exceeded all
previous records, was surpassed In
June.

Many an ardent young American pa

the fighting line is kicking his heels
with vexation because Uncle Sam con-
siders him too short in stature to make
the kind of soldier Uncle Sam wants.
He may be brave and intelligent as
well as strong and sound In mind and
limb, but by stretching his hardest he
cannot make more than five feet two
or three inches and therefore must of
necessity remain in civilian garb while
his soul longs for olive drab.
