what it meant.
The senate manifestly is perplexed at
just how far Wilson proposes to go
with the implied threat of a break. In
general the idea is that the threat is
a club to force Germany to give her
peace terms.
Want to Know Intent
Should the club operate according to
schedule, some believe, then peace
maneuvers would have a larger chance
of sunress, while at the same time the
I'nited Stntes would avoid controver
sy on the submarine issue. But thet
senate, in common with the house, docs
not know exactly what Wilson wants
or what he intends to do, according to
Lodge.
For this reasoa. those opposed to the
administration and this opposition in
cludes apparently somo democrats, de
clare the senate ought to know just
what it is endorsing before it goes
ahead with the Hitchcock resolution.
That more republicans will attack
Ambassador Von Bernstorff as did
Senator Lodge, seemed likely, though,
none had announced such a purpose
openly before the senate met at noon.
The attack on Bernstorff yesterday
by J-todge, broke all precedents. Lodge's
action in naming the German ambassa
dor personally on the senate floor in
such a debate was given all the more
significance, in view of the Bay State
senator 's heretofore rigid and unbend
ing adherence to that bogey of bogeys
senate rules nnd procedure. In fact,
Lodge himself emphasized this signici
canoo when, he frankly declared he re
alized him naming of Bernstorff was
"contrary to the written rules of the
senate."

Reply of the allies to President Wil

criticism as to phraseology which was
framed in the allies reply to the Ger

will contain no words susceptible to va
rious meanings.

Yesterday's Berlin wireless carried
announcement by the official press bu
reau of uu invitation extended to presi
dents Of the parliaments of AuBtria,
Bulgaria and Turkey by the president
of tho German ruichstug, for a confer
ence in Berlin January 19. Probably
this is the same conference mentioned
above as between foreign ministers.
An Explanatory Note.
Amsterdam. Jan. 4. Bebuttul of cer
tain statements as to the war's cause
and its developments in an explanatory
note to neutral nations is reported to be
under consideration by the German gov
ernment, according to Berlin advices to
day. Berlin is strongly adverse to per
mitting a number of claims and state
ments by the allies to go unchallenged
in official documents.
The Volks Zeitung is a Catholic news
paper and has never been regarded as
a government orgaoi. Amsterdam dis
patches did not reveal the nature of the
"confirmation."
Situation Not Settled.
London, Jan. 4. Indications that the
Greek .situation is by no means settled
were given in dispatches from Athens
today. King Constantino's government,
it was said, is having difficulty in
granting complete acquiescence of the
demands of the entente's latest note be
causo of "certain currents of public
opinion. "
The allied blockade of Greece is still
in force and will remain so until thi
Greek government complies with nil demands-
dered nugatory by the voice of the peo
ple, and should, therefore, be repealed
W have an ordinance regulating Chi
nese and Japanese noodle houses, which
is clearly unconstitutional ami void.
This ordinance was drafted with good
intent and should be aaiended so as to
include all nationalities m order that
the penalty for violations thereof may
be effectually enforced. Wc have an
ordinance providing a garb for police
men as elaborate as that of a Kentucky
colonel. If the council desire our po
licemen, among the many other things,
to wear a black campaigu hat with two
cords of gilt and a metal wreath on
front of crown, then we should enforce
this ordinance. It would seem that the
uniform in use at present is spectacu
lar enough, if so, the ordinance should
be amended, as it is a poor precedent
to violate our own laws. ,
Traffic Regulations
I especially invite your attention to
the ordinance regulating traffic upon
the streets. This we must not leave
unnoticed. Human life is too sacred
to be nipped out by speed bugs anil
careless drivers. An ordinance should
be passed requiring a small circle or
black block to be painted at the cen
ter of every street intersection, within
the business blocks of our city. This
signal should be repainted and main
tained and the ordinance enforced un
til the operators of all vehicles learn
and respect the laws of the road. I
believe it is true that in nearly every
city speed ordinances are violated with
impunity and corners ut in utter dis
regard of the laws above referred to.
A stairway should be built leading
up to the dome on the city hall in or
der that visitors and home seekers may
take a bird's eye view of our city with
out climbing the dizzy heights at the
state bouse. For many years the city
dome has been a roosting place for bats
and pigeons. The guano might well
be sold for enough to construct this
stairway, at any rate it could be built
with very little expense, and the dome
on the city hall placed to the use for
which it was originally designed.
I believe we should encourage the
further laying of hard surface pave
ment, but 1 do not believe we should
urge it upon property owners in those
districts where it would work financial
embarrassment or a confiscation of
their property.
Imported Inspectors
Under the present system, whenever
a brick building is constructed, it is
the custom to have the wiring passed
upon by an inspector from Portland.
It seems this inspector must make as
many trips as- there are stories to be
constructed, I believe we have men
who can perform this work as effi
ciently aB those imported from other
cities." If so, we should appoint a wire
inspector who could pass upon this
work in conformity with the code of
underwriters. His fees, as at present,
could be paid by the contractor. This
would not only mean a material sav
ing to tho contractor (or rather indi
rectly to tho builder), but money ex
pended for this purpose could be kept
at home.
At. present the city recorder is the
purchasing agent for the city. It be
lieve a purchasing board composed of
two aldermen anil the city recorder
would be a wise move.
I do not feel that I should conclude
this message without saying a word to
the police department of our city. It
is your duty to apprehend the viola
tors of both city ordinances and state
statutes, for by" virtue of your office
you aro not only policemen, but under
a state statute yon are clothed with
the authority of constables. It is not
for you to pass upon the merit of our
city ordinances or tie wisdom of any
state, because that Is a prerogative
of the legislative departments of the
city and state. It is your duty to en
force the law as you find it. If you
waiver er falter in this duty, those
who favor lax enforcement of the law
will denominate you as easy and those
who stand for strict enforcement of
the law will call you cowardly. Men
may differ in passion and prejudice,
and liberality, they may view from
different angles, but permit me to re
mind you that directly or indirectly
the voice of the majority creates the
law they wish enforced. Therefore do
your duty and upon your services all
"reasonable men will place the stamp
of approval.
I trust that we may find the ensuing

Headache of any kind, is caused by
auto-intoxication which means self
poisoning. Liver and bowel poisons
called toxins, sucked into the blood,
through the lymph ducts, excite the
heart which pumps tho Mood so fast
that it congests in the smaller arties
and veins of the head producing vio
lent, throbbing pain and distress, call
ed headache. You become nervous, de
spondent, sick, feverish and miserable,
your meals sour and almost nauseate
you. Then you resort to aeetanilide,
asperin or the bromides which tempor
arily relieve but do not rid the blood
of these irritating toxins.
A glass of hot water with a teaspoou
ful of limestone phosphate in it, drank
before breakfast for awhile, will not
only wash these poisons from your sys
tem and cure you of headache but will
cleanse, purify and freshen the entire
alimentary canal.
Ask your pharmacist for a quarter
