OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY OF KLAMATH FALLS
"Let us have faith that tight makes might, and
in that faith let us to the end dare to do our
duty as vie understand it" Abraham Lincoln
WHY GERMANY ELECTED HINDENBURG PRESIDENT
In the election of Field Marshal von Hindenburg as
president of Germany the rest of the world can find com
fort in spite of predictions that it merns the doom of the
German republic. The German peopl.- have a measure of
sound judgment, although they have at times been pre
vented from using it. Under t!ie empe they were re
strained at times as they are n,t likely to be under the
constitution.
That the situation present? some menace to the peace
of Europe it would be idle to ignore, but the result does
not entirely rest in the hand? of the German people nor of
von Hindenburg himself. Soma of the responsibility is on
the shoulders of neighbors concerned in German affairs.
Early in the campaign the issue was sharply drawn. It
was announced by the Marx supporters that the election
of von Hindenburg would mean the recall of the Hohen
zollern dynasty as a not distant date. The campaign went
forward on the division between republicans and mon
archists.
Then an unexpected element was thrown into the con
test. An ill-judged attempt by the allies' press to dictate
to German voters how they should use their ballots, with
bad strategy in the Marx camp, where his managers neg
lected to tell the people what a fine man Marx was be
cause they were so busy attacking von Hindenburg, made
the issue one of sentiment, in a nation that is perhaps the
most sentimental in the world.
In victory or defeat. Marshal von Hindenburg is a hero
in the eyes of Germany. He never has changed his ideals.
Right or wrong, he has been sincere. Germans who have
utterly cast the Hohenzollerns out of their hearts still re
spect the old marshal for his loyalty to his former masters.
Thus von Hindenburg was elected, not alone by the
votes of those who want tha Hohenzollerns restored, but
by many who resented attacks on the one man whose
name recalls the day of German glory and who was passed
over even by the allies when he stood forth as a scape
goat willing to take the errors of the Hohenzollerns on his
own shoulders.
The election has been marked by the hoisting of the
old Prussian royal colors, not by all the people that voted
for von Hindenburg, but by the little group of zealots who
see but one angle to von Hindenburg's election. There is
danger that among the allies anti-German zeal will be
kindled by pro-HohenzolIern enthusiasm. Here will lie
the greatest danger to the established order in Germany
under von Hindenburg's administration. Danger of quite
another sort lurks in the fact that he is 78 years old
facing an arduous seven-year term. Should he lav down
the burden part way the monarchists might decide on a
sudden stroke to restore the throne. Meantime, if von
Hindenburg takes the oath of the German constitution he
will keep it if he runs true to form. '
Its a good idea always to kiss the children good
night, advises Helper Lilalicia, but adds, that is if you
don't mind waiting up for them to come home.
A wireless station that may be heard around the
world and communicate with ships everywhere has just
been installed on the crest of Mount Saleve, overlooking
Geneva, Switzerland.

CHAPTER Wt
He had built a lire In the Imitation
Italian fireplace downstairs: a basket
of torn papers started it. but swallows'
sesu In the chimney spoiled tbe draft.
At last, however, the flames began to
leap: and although smoke poured out
Into tbe room, be set himself method
ically to destroy tbe French coverlid.
It was a work of piety, almost, like
purging tbe sin from little Flora Lee's
soul: like driving a stake through tbe
heart of tbe sleeping vampire that sbe
may be saved from tbe demon that
obsesses her.
Strip after strip, be tore the fragile,
lovely thing apart and watched tbe
fragment burn. The soft material
yielded gently to his Angers as Flora
Lee sometime yielded. As the shim
mering teitrre burst Into flames that
were brighter than Itself he had a feel
ing that his love was burning on this
pyre, a cleansing, sacrificial flame.
Against the world's scourging be had

"Ye, honey." he responded, and
. that was tbe truth.
I Or was It truth' If love Is an In
torlcaUng thing, pleasing and destroy
ing like a drug, then Admah bad none
of It left for Margaret Peak. But If
it la a warming essence, restoring Mood
to a cold heart and color to a gray mind,
the thing be felt was love.
For an Indefinite time these two
beings, so different In origin yet so akin
In the things of which life had cheated
them, dang together beside a dying
lire. Was It love that Admah felt?
Certainly H was a depth of comfort
that had never before come to blm:
comfort In the richness of her voice
and the touch of her delicate, capable
band as sbe held him to her and
whispered promise that he knew she
would fulfill. How they weren't afraid
of anything any more, or ashamed of
anything. How they'd stand together,
or fall together. If necessary. But

strong, the two or them, to let any fate
