It is but ' right the matter
should be fully discussed and
the people informed as to the
various proposals before action
is taken. At present our street
lighting system is not at all in
Keeping with the progressive
Fenrtleton spirit. The com

from Main street being among
other things indicated for the

East Oregonian the surest way
to fulfillment of such good in
tentions will consist in a com
paratively short contract with
the company or better still
with a proviso that the con.
tract may' be cancelled at the
pleasure of the city if a muni

If the city should be tied up for
a long term of years with

have reason to regret it.

Ames of John Hopkins
University brings news that
the dilapidated footwear of
captured German soldiers give
unmistakable proof of the
shortage of leather in the cen

were almost without shoes and
they report that bank clerks in
Berlin go barefooted so that

next winter and how will the
shortage of footwear affect the
spirit of the kaiser's forces?
Under some conditions it is not
unpleasant to go barefooted
but it is easy to surmise men
who make forced marches,
storm trenches or resist at
tacks need good shoes. It is an
adage in the American army
that no soldier can be better
than his feet. If this holds
good in Europe the German
army is getting into bad
shape.

GERMANY'S WAY
HREE days after the fall
of Bethmann-Hollweg
neither the DOODle nor
the intellectual and political
leaders of Germany know ei
ther the cause of the change
in government or its real sig
nificance, says the Chicaca
News in an editorial. Nothing
is clear except that the kaiser
and the dynasty have obtained
nother postponement of Dosi-
tive reconstruction of the au
tocratic government.
Six months ago Bethmann-
Hollweg was regarded as the
foe of the aggressive annexa
tionists and the advocates of
submarine ruthlessness. The
social democrats necessarily
lost some of their confidence
in him when he openlv de
clared that the lawless subma
rine policy had his approval.
On the question of Germany's
peace terms Bethmann-Hollweg,

AH Choked Up With Catarrh?
Why Continue Makeshift Treatment?
hprays and douches will never
cure you.
Catarrh is annoying enough when
it chokes up your nostrils and air
passages, causing painful and diffi
cult breathing and other discomforts.
But the real danger comes when it
reaches down into yonr lungs.
This is why you should at once
realize the importance of the proper
treatment, and lose "no time ex
perimenting with worthless remedies
which touch only the surface. To bei
rid of Catarrh, von must drive the ;
disease germs out of your blood. I
Splendid results have been re j
ported from the use of S. S. S., which j
completely routs from your blood the '
Catarrh germsvfor which it is a per-
feet antidote.
S. S. S. is sold by alt druggists.
