COLUMUU8, O., Nov. 25. The
campulsn for the cloctlon of aeneral
PonhlnR (or tbe presidency of the
Unltod States In 1920 was formally
launched today by the application to'
the secretary of stato for the Incor
poration of the "Pershing Republican
l.omie."
'- (ByAsMciatcdPmt).
COPENHAGEN, Nov. 25. That an' agreement had
'been reached between the German soldiers and workmen's
council and the government is officially announced today
at Berlin.
Thia agreement provides first that all political power is
to be in the hands of the German Socialist Republic and
the foldieri and workmen's council. Second, their aim is
to.defenti, and develop, what has been accomplished by the
' revolution and to suppress all counter revolutionary activ
ity. , Third, the executive council in Berlin is to exercise all
functions pending the election of representatives to the ex
ecutive council or the German republic. Fourth, the cen
tral executive' committee council is to appoint and dismiss
all members of the various legislative bodies,of the repub
lic and of Prussia until the constitution has been estab
lished. Fifth, the council must be consulted before the
cabinet appoints assistant ministers to the sixth convention
of deputies drawn from the soldiers and workmen's coun
cils, which, are to be summoned as soon as possible. '
LONDON, Nov. 25. The newspapers here regard the
German aorreement as the development of the greatest im
portance, tantamount to the overthrow1 of the Ebert-Hasse
combinatioa and the adoption at least theoretically of the
existing Russian system of council,-which is not dominated
by Uw bolshevikl at present. ,
Soiw papers, on the contrary, think-that the step is a
"big bruff.to.persuide the Allies that old Germany is de
funct;, while others think that the menace is exaggerated
to impress the Allies with the difficulties of the enemy.
The following casualties are re
ported, by the -Commanding (leaeral

SAL.KM, Kor, 25. ''Provided the
Interested countries will' bo ready to
do the grading It will be the policy
of the sute highway commission to
complete tbe hard-surfacing -of both
the Columbh River and Pacific high
ways nut yetr," said Commissioner
Booth following the passage of a re
solution by the. commission request
ing the counties Immediately to' furn
ish It wl(h their grading program!
In qrder that tbe commission may
formulate Its hard-surfacing policy.
''Under the lw the counties must
do the grading, and as soon as the in
formation Is available the commis
sion will make up .Its hard-surfacing
budget," continued Mr. Booth. "Be
sides the counties Interested In the
two highways the commission will
ask for the same Infermitton from
other counties in order that It may
apportion funds fof, hard-surfacing
for such projects sails advisable..
"Altho the commission haa not
reached a definite decision oa the
subject It probably will be Its policy
to forward ho road contracts aatll
January or February. I feel that
such a policy should bo adopted for
three reasons. First, because of
weather conditions; second, because
both the price of labor and materials
will be lower and, third, for the reas
on that It should be, the purpose of
the commission to give preference
to returned soldiers In employment
on highway work, 'and. before thea
most of them will not be back."
The commission' will have f 8,000,
000 available for road conatractlon
next yea'r, and approximately 1,11,
500,000 for the next three years. Sev
er j. delegations will appear before
the commission this afternoon and
ask for appropriations.'

Tb'e following letter from the State

"One of the peculiar thlnuH noted
about the present ' epidemic or In
fulenxa Is Its wave llko "movement.
Observing, Its course over the east.
when It first appeared, we find the
first Invasion mounting rather slowly
and .with not many dShths. This Is
followed by a lull ia.wblch the eul
deaalc seems to be uder controf, then
there Is' a suddea flare up, wide
spread, much more virulent and a
very, much Increased death rate. It
is Because or tnis peculiar pnase mat
tho health officer should be extreme
ly cautious In deciding to lift the ban.
"In making this decision, the Sur
geon General warns ns to consider
condition rither than time. If, there
are Infected arena. oa either vide of
your district, thoVour district' may
bo clear, be very guarded In
your decision. If however, you find
them, clear,, and your district has
been clear for throe or four days,, It
will be considered sufficient Indica
tion to make such decision."
