FOR FIRST TIME

Claud w. Sandy" Sandstrom,
one of Moline's well known and
leading photographers. has exercis-
ed the right of citizenship in the
United States. although his father
had taken out his naturalization
papers after the son had reached
the age Of q.
Today Sandy was sworn in a full

Sixty-one others were rushed into

MASS MEETING
FOR DIRECTORS
SilYis Board Calls Gathering OF Cit
liens Opposing Increase OF
Street Car Rates.

A mass meeting of all citizens OF
Silvis, who are opposed to an in
crease in street car fare, has been
called by the Silvis commission for
Z O'Clock Tuesday evening. At that
time formal action Will be taken by
the residents of the village to cam
paign against the increase, which
is now before the public utilities
commission.
The above move was made last
evening at the meeting of the Silyis
board of trustees. The people of
Silvis will vigorously oppose the
advance in rates, and all favoring
this move are asked to meet next
week. The council received a com
munication from the public utili-
ties commission, which was placed
on file. One of the chief objections
to the proposed increase is that
hundreds of men living in Silvis
work in factories in Moline, Rock
Island and the arsenal.
The new meters will be installed
in Silvis soon, and the city clerk
was ordered to notify all water con-
sumers of the new rates to be in
effect, which allows 20 cents per
100 cubic feet.
An increase Of $40 was given in
the salary of Henry Bahnks, village
marshal. The board passed a tax
levy ordinance for the year.

WHISKY FOUND
IN TOP MACHINE
Twenty Bottles of Liquor Fall
From Cover of Auto When
Police Let Down Cover.

Twenty bottles OF whisky
dropped to the pavement when No
line police authorities attempted
to raise an automobile top on a
car occupied by William Withrock
and Tony Mey of Davenport, when
it rained last evening. Withrock
was under the influence Of liquor
and was found with his friend sit
ting or lying in the car at Sixteenth
avenue and Twenty-first street,
Moline. Mey was sober.
Withrock has been convicted,
charged with drunkenness, and is
being held by the federal authori-
ties for violating the dry zone
laws. MeyC will be arrested on the
same charge. 1t is probable that
the owner of a wholesale liquor
house on Coaltown road will also
be arrested, charged with selling
booze in dry territory.
Withrock and the car were TAX
en- to the police station. Several
hours later when the rain came,
several officers let down the top
of the car, which was standing in
front of the station. II was then
that the hiding place of the booze
was found.
Withrock plead guilty to the
charge of intoxication, but claimed
that he had not purchased any
whisky. He told the police the
following story:
Il got drunk on beer. We
bought the beer at one place and
later went to another. We drank
it where We bought it and paid Is
cents q bottle for it. Then l got
a toothache and laid down. l
didn't know anything about the
whisky. / didn't see Mey buy it
and didn't know it was in the top"
Mey is the proprietor of the pool
room in Davenport and is the
brother of Tom Mey, newly ap-
pointed Moline police officer.

I'VE are fighting not men but

When Germany cant win her way

Italian soldier and professor, was

declaration was made by the yeter-
an at a lecture given the Y. NJ. c. A.
men at Coal Valley yesterday.
President Wilson's brief but en-
phatic answer TO the Austrian gov
ernment's peace feeler. was the
best thing that has yet come from
the pen of Americas chief execu-
tice," declared Roselh He gave
appropriateness as the reason of
Italy's late entrance into the war.
He told of the generosity Of the
Italian government when they gave
France SOC, 900 men from their
front to help at the Marine. It was
those men who saved Paris and
won the battle of the Marine"
Italy saved the remnants of the
Serbian nation Serbia exists today
only because of the heroic action Of
those men who braved the subma-
rine and crossed the sea to rescue
Serbia from the brutal hands of the
Hun.
Italy entered the war with only
few hundred thousand troops. To-
day she has given nearly three
million troops to the cause of
world-freedom. All men between
the ages of IT and 46 are in the
army. Crippled men, even with only
one eye, men with fat feet, every
man who was able to work in civil
/ life has been put in the army to
/ help move the wheels of the war
machine"
Italy" he said, did not break
with Germany when she entered
the war. The triple alliance was an
alliance Of defense only. The word
defensive is mentioned II times in
the treaty. Italy did not enter the
war with imperialistic designs.
America waited nearly three
years before entering the war and
yet we don't spend time today be

the struggle so late"

PRISONERS TAKEN
BY YANKS GLAD TO
HEAR PEACE TALK

With the American Army on the
Lorraine Front, Tuesday, Sept. It.
BY the Associated Press. Ger
man prisoners taken in the recent
advance by the Americans in this
section displayed great interest
when they learned of the Austrian
peace suggestion when the news
reached the camps where they were
taken after their capture They
made no effort to conceal their dis
enlargement when assured by the
American soldiers that peace is a
long way off unless Germany is will
ing to admit she is beaten.
Stories told by the prisoners
nearly all indicated a lack of har-
mony between the Austrians and
Germans and reflect the lowered
morale of the central powers. The
prisoners conversation shows that
they realize the hopelessness of
success and their belief that they
are fighting for some object which
to them is apparently not clear.

FINE TREATMENT
GIVEN BOYS NOW
AT CAMP GRANT

The following letter was received
from Joe Faust, MoIiner, in which
he praises the food and accommoda-
lions given soldiers at Camp Grant.
The letter follows
Just a word from the Camp
Grant limited service company.
The boys from Moline have nothing
but praise for the treatment given
US here. The food certainly hits
the spot and the officers are men
to whom any man would give his
all.
THE limited service regiment,
known as the Fifth limited service
regiment, has actually demonstra-
ted that it is as good in spirit and
made up of as real Americans as
any yet sent over the sea.
After all preliminary registra-
ton is done the medical examiners
place the men in either of three
classes, according to their physical
examination. The classes are:
"a General service, overseas
duty.
"b. Limited service, non-combat-
ant overseas duty.
&C. Limited service, home guards.
Il might say here that the lin
tied service men are showing some
of the veterans up here some real
physical ability. One fellow picked
up the front end of a Ford car the
other day and offered to bet any
one he could lift up the front end
of a Packard, but futile search re
veaIed no Packards.
Another fellow has a camp rec
ord of lifting a 17-pound weight 16
times above his head, while the
worlds record is but 10 times.
1T may interest friends in Mo
line to know that the writer, Joe
Faust. and Morley Thomas. both of
us graduates of Moline high school
in 1913, have passed general mill
tary examination and have quail
fed for overseas service. We are
