S. infantry, which lias been stationed at Camp Meade, Md.. for several weeks past, includes a num bcr of Douglas county boys. They arc now expecting to go ovorseas soon, They were recently inspected By Bonn tors Chamberlain and McNary. Re' garding thig visit by the officials, the camo publication, "Trench ana Camp," giveB the following report: "They say the Germans tear tne Yankee soldiers; well, if they all look like the 63d, I don't blame them." I That was the comment of Untied States Senator Chamberlain, of Ore gon, when he visited Meade a few days ago and saw the boys from Oregon in action. The 63d infantry it made up almost entirely of Oregon men and a few from tho old 11th infantry. Senator Chamberlain, with his col- !tjff.n8 sewers which arrived in the morning with Mrs. Harry sa. i;iay, wire or uapiuin way, me regi mental surgoon, who was visiting friends in Washington. Tho senators wore much pleased with the appearanco of the boys and their only regret was that they could not stay long enough to greet all thoir old friends. A f cw who were intimate with tho senators wore invited by Captain Clay to meet them, ' Many persons besides the senators have, commented on tho size of the soldiers in this regiment. The average is close to six feet. Many of them were farmer boys an d lumbermen or miners, and know the game of outdoor life like a book. Very little sickness developed among them in the recent epidemic. There were eleven deaths in the regi ment, but only two of these we're among the westerners. Senator Chamberlain and senator McNary are old friends of Captain Cluy. Ho invited them to remain for luncheon, but they left on the 11 o'clock train for the capital t0 attend an important committco meeting. Both senators arc tremendously in tcrestcd in the war program, and fcona tor Chamberluin especially -has been ac tivo in tho development of a strong army. Bridgeheads Established. London, Nov. 4. French and Ameri can troops have established bridge heads across the Schelde ut Weldcn and Nodercnanio, northeast of Aude naruc, Field Marshal Haig announced in his special Belgian communique to day. The British crossed the river at Pottcs, eight miles north of Tournai 'At dawn this morning we nttacKca on a wide front south of the Scheldt," the statement said. "The attack is reported to have been launched satisfactorily." The Belgians advanced more titan nine miles along tho Dutch frontier. north of Ghent. "The Belgians advanced fifteen kil ometcrs along the Dutch frontier, north of Ghent." the statement said. 'Their lines were established east oi Bassevelde and Doevcrwhcm, touching th Tcrneuscn canal at Langerbrugge and reaching the approaches of Ghent. "Franco Americans established bridgeheads at Wclden and Neder- Eenamo. "The British crossed the Scheldt at Pottcs."

A folder is being widely Salem this morning, presenting an argument in favor of the proposed Richardson Amendment to the City Charter. Permit us to call your attention to a few of the fallacies of the argument contained in this circular. To induce you to support pamphlet, that none of the fl 1 t A A 1 A tt A Salem, but the notes will stay the same will remain m the issued heretof orebonds under of which there remains unpaid at this time, $385,422.00. These bonds are practically all outside of the city of Salem, and they are drawmg six per cent interest. Ask the signers of this pamphlet how the City of Salem is going shipping out that amount of bonds. The proposed Richardson template the repayment to any person of cash, but the city's promissory notes only, drawing interest at the rate of four per cent. Ask the signers of this argument how the City of Salem is going to raise enough money on these four per cent notes to pay off these bonds amounting to $385,422.00, when the United States government today is paying four and one-fourth per cent on bonds issued by it, which are the. highest class of investment in the world. It must appear to any thinking person, that no method can be devised whereby these .bonods can be paid off ex cepting in cash, and since the bill makes'Tio proposition for paying these bonds, it will be necessary to raise this amount immediately by taxation, which will increase our taxes to a tremendous amount. The argument contained in this pamphlet throughout, is intended to catch the yote of the poor man. It is true that in the few instances poor parties residing on paved streets would be slightly benefited by the passing of the act. On the other hand how about the hundreds of poor people living on unpaved streets who are yearly wading in and out thrcugh the mud, to their homes, and who will pay at least double the taxes they are now paying, in or der that their more fortunate neighbor may get to and from his property on a nicely paved street? . The poor man who will be thus affected is not considered in this article and he is"many, many times more numerous in the City of Salem than the one who resides on a paved street. This article calls your attention to the Sewer Bond issue an dthere is an attempt to. compare the proposed method to the one adopted in that case. In the first place the conditions confronting the people at this time in no manner compare with those confronting the people at the time of the adoption of the Sewer Bond Amendment. At that time practically aecision oi me supreme ooun; wouia oi necessity nave been paid for by general taxation, while the other one- half of the cityjwas being served with sewers which were being paid for by, special assessment. It was only just and equitable that all persons be placed upon the same basis and to accomplish this, a plan was worked out on a scien tific basis, whereby the city issued bonds to provide the entire cost of paving, and these are being retired by an nual taxation. There is nothing of this kind confronting the people of Salem, today. lect every dollar of over-due assessmentsjust as rapid ly as the financial condition of the public will warrant In view of the extensive demands made on the public at this time, on account of War ring the collection of these far as it can, and the proponents of this measure are in poor position to criticize the city for not making collection when, as a matter of fact, many of them, are the owners of propery on which over-due assessments are now out standing. The Sewer Bond issue a debt of $480,000.00. The assumption of a debt of $1,300,000.00, which added to bonds already outstanding, would put the City of balem more deeply in debt than any city of its class on the Pa cific Coast. ' The thing the City of Salem needs today, more than anything else, is more factories for the employment of its laboring men. Should this measure pass and the rate of taxation be doubled, and perhaps more than doubled, what chance do you think new business enterprises or new factories to locate here Tin ' laboring man whose vote the signers of this pam phlet are attempting to catch are more vitally affected in the matter of scaring. capitalists away from investing here, than any other class of citizens. It is the laboring man's attention they are trying to catcli. Ask them to answer the questions propounded in this article before you permit the cunningness of this article to catch your vote. There is an effort made in the argument referred to to create prejudice irt favor by the proposed Charter Amendment by referring to the Albert and Frye cases and attempting to give a false impression regarding their status. Do not be deceived by any argument to the con trary. Albert and Frye will eventually pay for their pavement exactly as any other citizen pays, as the Charter Amendment adopted one year means for collection. Before you permit the arguments proposed by the parties supporting the Richardson Amendment to catch your vote, call at the office of Mr. Sam Richardson and ask him to personally explain to you just what kind of a hole he got himself and the Pierce & Stuart interests into in the Oakes Addition affair. If you fail to get the in formation you desire call at the city hall and ask any city ofoficial to explain to-you the condition of the Oakes Ad dition today and the reason for . its present condition. circulated on the streets of this bill it is stated in the money will leave the city of 1 . 1 Il . .1 f here and the money paid on city. The city of Salem has the Bancroft Bonding Act, owned by capitalists living to pay these bonds without money to the holders of the Amendment does not con one-half the residents of the. city on account of an.adverse The city is in position to col Activities, the city is defer over - due assessments lust as required the assumption ot paving bill would require the the city would have to induce' ago provides the city ample .When you have secured these why Mr. Richardson now asks you to comoe along and saddle the debt upon yourselves as tax-payers to pull him and his clients out of the situation into which he got them in the matter of the Oakes improvement. If you are interested in the City of Salem don't fail to vote at the city election tomorrow. If you are mterest- ed in its welfare and its upbuilding, vote against the Rich - . - ardson Amendment On the its future completely throttled and its development en tirely stopped, adopt this proposed amendment We have faith enough in the voters of Salem to believe that they wish to do what is for the city's best. Therefore we con fidentially expect that a large majority will vote 301.. X.. NO. S.MENDICOTT, I. GREENBAUM, WILLIAM H. TRINDLE, Publicity Committee. (Paid Adv. BY ALLIED INVASION By William Philip Slmms. . (United Press staff correspondent.) Paris, Nov. 4. From threo o'clock this afternoon, when Austria-Hungary goes out of tho war, tho entire German ; eastern frontier is wido open to tho menace of an allied invasion. Munich, Dresden, Bavaria, Saxony and Prussia will thus be directly men aced. The inter-allied diplomatic .-efl is watching the swift turn of events, with grim satisfaction. Paris is unflustered and awaiting the next step in tho cen tral European debacle publication of the terms to Germany. TERMS FOR GERMANS MAY NOT BE PUBLISHED. Washington, Nov. 4, The German armistice terms may be presented and accepted or rejected before the world is made acquainted with terms or with the fact that they have actually been dispatched. This was the veiled intima tion -of 'high official- this af ternoon and it was pointed out that this would square with tho policy pursued toward Turkey, Bulgaria and Austria. It was also indicated that, as in the case of the above nations, word of Germany's capitulation or determination to fight on will likely come from European capitals first. ft City Attorney Makes Few Remarks About Amendment B. W. Mncy, city attorney, makes tho following statement regarding the proposed Richardson nmemlincnt to the city charter, wherein it is proposed to issue a million or more city bonds to pay for all paving since 1!K)5: "Aluny people are laboring nndr the deluxiou that the liicliurdson jill will refund to them their street im provement; assessments in canh, thS same as was done with the sewer re fund. ' If tht bill should pass, nil the prop erty owner would get in exchange for his street assessments that he has paid in, will bo a 20 year installment note bearing 4 per cent interest, one twu- tieth of which Is L.'tiB annually. "In other words, if a property has paid in $1000 street assessment, ho will LITTLE TALKS ON THRIFT By S. W. STRAUS PrtslJtnt of tin American Society for Thrift It is williin the spirit of the (lay that a solemn warn ing be issued to the Ameri can people not to relax in their thrift practices. That gr dangers exist was alarming ly apparent during Hie first fifteen J V A it days of the Liberty Loan drive. livery organ iiution and every agen cy that can aid in sustaining our fill sens in their thrift drive must take up the task now with redoubled energy. It would be a calamity If, after the glorious lessons- of thrift we have k-arned from the wsrj we should, with the approach of pr ice, ugain go back to our old ways of Improvidence anil waste. To do this would be to rclrca; from one of the proudest heights at tained by America in this conflict. That there wi.l be continued need of thrift in the 1'uited States, cannot I ' doubted. If the war were to end to morrow, there would be no excus; for any of us letting down In tin slightest degree in our elimination of waste and in our utiliuition of every resource, mental, finnnciul and physi cal. There are prodigious war bills to pay, there Is a great era of recon facts you will readily .see other hand if you wish to see PERTAINS TO CHARTER There is no spocinl excitement as to the ' city election tomorrow. , In only two of tho Wards is there a contest for alderman. In ward three, J. 8. Austin ! and B. . Edwards will fight it out and in ward soven the contest is between Dr. 0. L. Scott and H. L. Clark. The voter in the other five wards wu simply step up to the booth and regis- tcr a choice for city murshul, the candi: dates being Percy M. Varney and J. E. Wright. Of course in all wards the . big question is" whether tho city is tu be bonded for $1,000,000 or more to pay for all the street improvements since 1905, Tho ballot is so arranged that those in favor of the Richardsen bill to bond the city for street im provements in the past as well us fu ture will voto yes. Those opposed and satisfied with present conditions will voto no. Although very little has been said of tins proposed amendment, many are inclined to think it is the vital problem to bo acted on tomorrow by the city votors. For the "'tv election the voting places are as follows: Ward No. 1 Garfield school. Wurd No. 2 City hall. Ward No. 3 Court house. Ward No. 4 Corner of 12th and Mill streets. . . ' Ward No. 5 Raddaway'S store. Ward No, 6 Cameron's paint shnp. Ward No. 7 Corner Commercial and Miller streets. get from the city not cash, but a note. $5 of the principal of which is payable annually tor -u years, wita 4 per cent interest upon tho unpaid principal. "iae statement is frequently mano by proponents of the Riuhurdson bill. that the sowor fund measure adopted five years ago did not ruiso taxes in the city. This statement is erroneous. Last year there was levied on account of tho sower return! 4. SB mills. In otnnr words, for every $1000 worth of prop erty in tho city of Salem there waa paid $4.5H sower refund tun."

War has taught us thrift in thou sands of ways. The necessity of yes terday has become the luxury of to day. It us not imagine that In these days of the final buttles of tlie war, We can return to an era of extrttYHgam.t and luxury." There will he a change with the definite end of the war; much of the mun power, coal, transportation and capital now employed for strictly war purposes will be released for non-war industries; certuin lines of business which now are dormant will be reviv ed; there will be a renaissance of fie arts. But there will never come a time when we can or will tolerate waste. I.ct us learn this fact now. During the war we have discovered Die knack of saving money; we have learned to eat simple foods and to dress less extravagantly; we have ac celerated our production; we have re doubled our efficiency. These conditions must continue. Let this message be shouted from the house tops. it has not been difficult to practice thrift under tlie Inspiring impulse of the war; it will he harder to practice it In tlie less eventful days of peace. But it will be just as necessary and the patriotic obligation will be just as essential. 1 We have learned war thrift, now let us prepare to learn peace thrift. mm: rnfl I nun iiniiii"' 1 "
