with Salkowski's wife. was able to leave
the Zurbrugg Memorial Hospital, at
Riverside, on Friday. Mrs. Salkowski
and Wasniswski are now in the Jail here
awaiting the action Of the Grand Jury.
The authorities are now inclined to be-
lieve that the wife, who was arrested for
completely in the crime, is innocent;
that she was not in collision with Was

was not in love with the perpretrator oil
the crime but ON the contrary was true
to her husband.
The work of paving Mount Holly's
streets has advanced somewhat during
the last week, but the condition is "a

seven streets torn up and almost If moi

Wilson's Stand in German Trouble
Approved by h-PrSideat Roosevelt

New Orleans-Applauding President
Wilson for his stand in the disagree
ment with Secretary Bryan over the
issue between the United States and
Germany, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt,
in a signed statement received here
from Breton Island, La, pledged his
support to the President.
According to Mr.. Bryan's state
ment." Colonel Roosevelt says, he
has left the cabinet because President
Wilson, as regards the matters at IS
sue with Germany, refuses to follow
the precedent set in the 80 all-inclu-
siye arbitration commission treaties
recently negotiated, and declines to
suspend action for year while neu-
trail commission investigates the ad-
mitted murder of American men, wom-
en- and children on the high seas, and
further declines to forbid Americans to
travel on neutral ships, in accordance
with the conditions granted to US by
Germany herself by solemn treaty.
"Of course / heartily applaud the
decision of the President, and in COM
mon with all other Americans who are
loyal to the traditions handed down by
the men who served under Washington
and by the others who followed Grant
and Lee in the days of Lincoln, l
pledge him my heartiest support in all
the steps he takes to uphold the honor
and the interests of this great repub-
lie, which are bound up with the main
tenance of democratic liberty and of a
wise spirit of humanity among all ma
tions of mankind.

Noted Men From Many States
Plead for Adequate Defense

New York - Better military and
naval preparedness on the part Of the
United States was urged here by
speakers of National prominence at a
mass meeting at Carnegie hall under
the auspices Of the National Security
League, which just begun a two-day
peace and preparation conference at
which rs states were represented.
The speakers included Jacob M.
Dickinson and Henry L. Stimson, ex-
secretaries of war; Charles ]. Buona-
parte. ex-attorney general; Judge Al
ton B. Parker, honorary vice president
of the league, and DR.. Lyman Abbott.
In introducing Judge Parker as
chairman Of the meeting s. Stanwood
Menken, president Of the league, said
the conference desired to inquire into
the necessary steps which should be
taken for an immediate adequate ma
tional defense.
Judge Parker declared that the pres
ent European war has taught this
country that what was preparedness
two years ago is not preparedness
now.
1--WE are now faced with the ques-
tion," he said, whether we are in
position to protect our rights. We
need not fear a growth of militarism,
but we must have an army and navy
large enough to protect US in our pos
sessions"

II has long been known that water

harmful bacteria, Tho powerful ator
ilisinK efieet of tho suns rays which
are SO effective In destroying germs
has been attributed to the ultra'Nio'
lot part OF the light The problem
for scientIsts has boon to devise some
way Of employing the Sterilitins Of
tocta OF these rays In an oueetive
manner for human use,
French and German scientists set
about the task and have produced
new sterillEcr. In which, IN order that
tho maximum amount OF ultraviolet

which ia the only solid that will admit
such penetration, Tho light given out
Is vastly richer In ultraviolet rays, IN
proportion to Visible rays than In sun

Official Washington Thinks War
With Teutons Remote.
AVENUES FOR SETTLEMENT LEFT OPEN
Way Plainly Prepared for Germany
to Acquiesce Without Loss OF
Dignity Peace In Sight.

Washington, d. C. - Optimism -
more pronounced than it has been since
the diplomatic correspondence with
Germany over the sea zones of war
hegan--was manifest Saturday in otii-
cial quarters here over the prospects
for a peaceful outcome Of the pending
controversy between Germany and the
United States.
The American note presented to the
Berlin foreign office by Ambassador
Gerard was interpreted on all sides rs
decidedly friendly and leaving the way
open TO a satisfactory solution with
honor to both sides. Officials made it
clear that the note purposely had been
phrased so as to reiterste the earnest
ness of the United States with respect
TO the principles Of humanity and in
ternational law and at the same time
to afford Germany an opportunity with
dignity to make her practice square
with the.principles expressed.
II was said officially that note
would soon be sent to Great Britain
and her allies insisting on a change IN
the operation Of the blockade conduct
ed by them so as to conform with the
principles Of international law forbid
ding interference with trade IN non,
contraband articles passing to ano
from q belligerent country through :
contiguous neutral country. This, II
was generally believed, would be ar
important factor in convincing the
German government that the United
States would maintain the same vigor'
ous position on the fundamentals OF in
ternational law with respect to the al
lies as has been the case in the Amer
lean correspondence with Germany.
Close reading in diplomatic quarters
of the American note to Germany pre-
sented by Ambassador Gerard, the sec
ond since the Lusitania was sunk
brought out a variety Of prediction;
and views as to the manner in which
Germany would reply.
There was general feeling OF con
fidence, however, that Germany woulC
accept some Of the several avenues O
approach purposely included in th'
note by the American government 81
as to make possible a friendly settle

GENERAL villa ASKS OPPONENT
FOR PEACE As WILSON DESIRES

Washington. d. C. = The United
States was formally notified Tuesday
by General villa. on behalf Of the
Mexican convention forces, that he
had telegraphed General Csrranss
urging conference for the restoration
Of peace and constitutional government
in Mexico,
This step Is the first tangible devel-
opment resulting from President Will
sons recent warning to all Mexican
factions that, unless they came to an
agreement among themselves soon'
some other means would be employed
by the United States to relieve the
suffering population from further dew
sstation Of the military element. On
General CarranEa's reply depends the
next move in the situation.
The announcement that General Vii
Ia had initiated u movement for peace
was received with satisfaction in OH
cial quarters. Enrique c. Liorente,
Washington representative OF the
Villa-Zapata coalition, called on Sec
retary Lansing with a copy OF the
Villa telegram to Carran1a and a long
note from General Villa replying to
President Wilson's recent pronounce
ment Of policy.
The note referred sppreciatively to
the Presidents efforts and outlined the
purposes of the vills-Zapata leaders to
bring about a reconciliation with the
Carranzaistas. =,
In the message to Carranza dated
June IL and sent direct from the camp
of the northern general at Aguas "a
lientes to the First Chief ut Vera Cruz,
stress is laid on President Wilson's
warning that the United States would
be Obliged to decide on other meas
ures should n coalition Of the factions
prove futile" General Villa says:
"In our opinion this declaration in
wolves two principles, which may frus-
trate the ends Of the revolution and
impair our sovereignty, First, the
Cientifeos, with any other group,
might again enthrone themselves with
American assistance. Second, should
the people not submit TO this, the Amer
lean government might have recourse
TO armed intervention. In the face OF
these two imminent dangers, and with
out recognizing the right Of the Amer
lean government to intervene IN our
affairs, we think that We should seek
means that would permit the reunion
and reorganization Of the Constitution
alist party, even though it be indispen-
sable to make sacrifices Of self-esteem.
We believe also that this is what
patriotism and the future welfare OF
our country requires of US.
''In such sense, we propose to you
that we take under consideration Pres
ident Wilson's note and that, II you
are so disposed, as we ourselves are,
that YOU advise US that We may discuss
and agree at once on the form and
terms of procedure in the reorganiza-
tion of the national constitutional gov
ernment. We have already placed our
selves in touch with the chief OF the
convention government, as well as the
commanding general of the army OF
the south"

The Princess isIands.

The Princess islands, in the Sea OF
Marmora. now said to have been forti-
fied az the last defense Of CONSTANT
NOBLE. have been a place OF exile In
ali ages. In Byzantine times the saw
age Empress Irene was shut up In a
nunnery upon Prinkipo, the chief 10
land. At the time OF the Young TURK
revolution the worst officials OF the
Yildis gang were interned here, though
they we're politely termed guests OF
the isle" And afterward the Marmors
islands became the dumping ground
of the wretched dogs OF CONSTANT
nople. which the reformers did not
dare directly to put to death. though
thew had no scruples about leaving
them 70 starve and perish Of hunger
tempered by cannibalism.

for forage, 20 gold medals, three med

that the main agricultural, as well as
horticultural exhibits for Oregon, are
in the Oregon building, and not in the
great palaces. Oregon is walking

company at Sara. about six miles
southeast Of Ridgefeld. Is running full
force and has orders that will require
until fall to fill. They may continue
to operate during the winter. This

The logging railroad, over which
shipments are sent from the mill at
Sara to Knapps Station on the main
line Of the Northern Pacific railroad
for their destination, employs num-
