ALIEN AT CAMP DODGE.

John Zitur, a young man of Stearns
county who registered on June 9Th,
and who is now drilling at Camp
Dodge is now seeking exemption on
the grounds that he is German
citizen. Zitur did not respond when
ordered to appear for examination
and was finally found and taken to
Fort Smelling and later to Camp
Dodge. In the mean time he appealed
his case to the adjutant general on
the ground that he is was an alien.
The matter on being referred to
County Attorney Paul Ahles was
proven true and Zitur will probably
be discharged. The records show that
Zitur's father took out his final
citizenship papers on Dec. 8, 1914, at
which time the son was % years and
seven months cid. The law stipulates
that only sons who have not reached
their majority are considered citizens
of this country with the taking out of
the papers by the father.

armstrong TALKED
OF FOR CHIEF CLERK
New Assessment Board Has
Several PlumS TO
Distribute
I. c. ASTON MAY
GET GUARDIANSHIP

Members OF the newly appointed
board OF county assessment will be
sworn into Office before the Levy
Court tomorrow morning at IL o'clock,
and Immediately thereafter will or
ganize for business. 10 is reported
that the board will name John Cowgirl
Aston. OF ST. Georges hundred, as its
chairman.
The board has three good Jobs TO
give out. a chief clerk at $500 per
year and two clerks at $1,000 per year
each. The board will also probably
name two stenographers at SEQ per
month each.
Interest now centers In the selec-
ton Of the chief clerk. and the best
obtainable information is that Robert
L. Armstrong is get the place. Both
Mr.. Armstrong and Daniel Thompson
who was q candidate for one OF the
assessorships, reside in Newark, and
are close political friends OF Levy
Courtman BENJAMIN A. Groves
Mr.. Groves was a strong supporter
Of Mr.. Thompson for member OF
the board, but Il is reported thar when
he learned ON Saturday that he could
not land Mr.. Thompson, he only gave
up the fight and supported the sue
cessful slate after insisting that al
least Armstrong be taken care Of. The
chief guess now Is that Armstrong
who for some years has been-a clerk
in the clerk OF the peace office will
get the $500 berth.
Another product from the political
rumor factory is that Emmett c
Adams Of this city. who was a can
didate for the place OF Republican
member Of the board from this city
was offered the chief clerkship, bui
| declined Il.
