loads are at the disposal of the people
of Philadelphia and can be purchased

authorities complete their plans for its

Concerning the Cancelled shipment
of 10000 pounds Of ham. which was
to have been consigned to this city.
Major Jones said no official reason had
been given for its cancellation, but he
believed the government had found use
for it TO supply the army.
The postotfccs in Philadelphia and
all over the country are expected to
begin taking orders for government
fOodstuffs to be delivered by parcel post
or otherwise on Monday. according to
an announcement made at Washington.
On Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday

converted into sales depot and great
quantities of the army food will be sold.
The federal authorities have aban
dOncd the farm to table" plan OF
marketing produce by parcel post. City
dwrlIors. the statement issued at Wash
ington shows. were eager to purchase
direct from the farmer by the parcel
post medium. but the farmers refused
to rise to the opportunity of direct mar
keting and thus eliminating the middle
man. and the plan failed.
Two carloads of foodstuffs will be
put on public sale at the Gimbel store

DONOHOEDEMOCRAT|C.
ASP|RANT FOR MAYOR.
Former Representative Heads
the Bonniwell Slate for Nom-
ination-PIatform Later

Former Representative Michael Don
oboe tossed his hat into the ring this
afternoon as a candidate for the Dem
ocratic mayoralty nomination.
Announcement was made recently by
Judge Bonniwell that he would support
Democratic slate headed by Mr.. Don
oboe. Later it was denied that the
former member Of Congress would seek
the Democratic nomination.
He settled the question this afternoon
by making a formal announcement of
his candidacy, and appealed to. all
Democrats for support, regardless of
factional opinions.
The Bonniwell ticket will oppose the
Democratic city committee ticket, which
has not yet been named, and is be-
lieved to be a prelude to a state wide
factional fight among the Democrats for
control of the state organization.
Bitter Rival Of Moore
Mr.. - Donohoe and Representative
Moore were bitter rivals during the
formers term in Congress over the
Delaware river improvement.
The former representatives an
nouncement of his candidacy follows:
I'm response to the urging of many
friends, l have determined to announce
my candidacy for the Democratic nom
ination for the great office of Mayor
of Philadelphia. The open primaries
having for their object the submission
of the claims of every candidate to the
whole body Of electorate, give to me,
as to every Democrat, the right to ap-
peal to my fellow citizens under the
provisions of the primary election law.
Therefore, / invite the cordial support
of Democrats, regardless of factional
opinions, with the hope that if chosen
by them there will result a minority
party in the city of Philadelphia, which
will be deterrent, at least, upon ma
jority extravaganza and misrule.
Platform to Come Later
Later in the campaign l will pre-
sent a more complete platform. AS n
result of the factional strife now pend
ing in the majority party, my candi-
dacy may afford an opportunity to good
citizens, regardless of party, to- en-
deavor to make winning campaign
for the mayoralty but at any rate, upon
nv record of service to my city and
of unfaltering allegiance to the high
est principles of real democracy, l sub
nit myself to the Judgment of my fell
low Democrats
