Williams, andi state that they will at once began to repair the mill, which is located at the east edge of town, and the railroad which runs up Cow creek several miles, says the Glen dale News. They think that they can be ready to operatd the mill about the middle of January, and will IprooaMy employ between 35 and 50 men as soon as they begin running. Mr. Fox says he considers that there is sufficient 'timber along the track which is already built to keep the mill running for four or live moiiths, and that they will extend the road up Cow creek as fast as needed. When asked as , to whether they would sljart a box factory in connec tion with the mill, he replied that they would consider that proposition later. : , -The starting up of this mill will be welcome news to' the community, as It will Increase the payroll to a considerable extent and bring in many new families. ...

DISREGARD AGREEMENT Prisoners of War Forced by Germans to Work Close to tine Firing Line Impressed by British Tanks. 1 the iron bringing wall, three cavalry divisions up the rear." AMSTERDAM, Dec. 1. (Corres pondence of the Associated' Press.) The German people now are being told that the United States went into the war, not to make the world safe for democracy, but in order that American capitalists might acquire the potash mines of Alsace. Prof. Itoth, of Greifswald Univer sity, in an article In the Vosslsche Zeltung, says: "American troops, we hear, are now occupying a portion of the French frontr- It is quite pos sible that they will soon appear along the Rhine-Rhone canal, in or der to establish American claims to the poatsh mines there, seeing that America's peaceful designs on our potash in 1909-10 (by purchase) were defeatedl by the passage of the German potash law, which prohibits foreign ownership, ' "Along with coal and iron, potash is Germany's strongest weapon, and if the best of it should be taken away from her, she would) be deprived of the best economic club she can wield against the United States. Without the 250,000 tons of potash fertilizer which the Americans annually im port from Germany in peace times, their cotton, tobacco, sugar and fruit crops would be In perpetual jeop ardy. So it is necessary that our world monopoly in potash should re main intact. It will enable us "to demand in exchange certain neces sary raw materials from our present foes. Our watchword must be, not one inch of potash-bearing soil to the enemy." Disregard Agreement. LONDON, Dec. 1. (Correspon dence of the Associated Press.) Another proo of the German disre gard of promises and agreements has been furnished in the British advance toward Cambrai. Some time ago Germany signed a solemn agree ment with Great Britain providing that no prisoners of war would' be employed within 19 miles of the front line. But two Russian pris oners were found by the British in German dugouts at Anneux, which was barely four miles from the lines as they lay at the opening of the Cambrai attack. Moreover, these Russians had seen a party of 300 to 400 British prisoners at work near Cambrai, about eight miles from the old front lines. The Russians tod a pitiful story of ill treatment and suffering. They had to subsist, under German regu lations, on half a pound of bread and some grass soup daily. As punish ment for minor offenses they were strung up to poles with their feet Ust .touching the ground. Men were bayonetted or shot for refusal or inability to work, until, from one cause or another, only 260 men re mained out of a camp of 500 pris oners. Awedby "Tajiks." BERNE, Switzerland, Dec. 1. CorresDondence of the Associated Press.) Describing the battle of Cambrai to German readers, Lieut, General Von Ardienne in the Tage blatt says: "Those who fought in the battle describe the imposing iinpres- slon made by the British tanKs wnicn preceded the attack on the widest front. As they advanced in masses, with very small intervals between them, thev reminded one or .Hanni bal's battle elephants or the sickle ohnrlots of Pharoah.

Hodlge was taken into custody by the Albany authorities late yesterday afternoon and placed in jail to await the arrival of a local officer. Hodge is the individual who won his way into the hearts of some of our citizens by heralding the fact hat he was an experienced restau- rantuer, having long been in the business at Spokane, Wash. He con fided to Lafe Lewis that he had am ple funds, in a local bank to finance the opening of the Grand Grill on a partnership venture. Mr. Lewis, be lieving that the man was sincere, ac-; cepted the story at its face value j and decorators were at once put to, work on the. interior of the grill, pre paratory to reonening soon. Just one important thing remained un-i done. Mr. Hodge's trunk was at Hugene. He had no funds until! his bank opened! and desiring to leave on the 7:40 a. m. train, pre sented these facts to Tom Cannon, who cashed his clreck for $10. Mr. Cannon, after he had made inquiries at local banking institutions found that the "paper" was valueless, Mr. Hodge having no funds .credited to his checking account. Tne oincers were notified and the absconder was j arrested ai AiDany. Hodge will be returned to this city for trial and if convicted faces a long terra in jail.
