GERMAN PRESS TRIES
 TO CLEAR VON PAPEN
Denial Made Through News Agency That Attache Spent Money to
 Further Plots.

Berlin, Jan. IS, by Wireless to Say ville.--A denial that Captain Franz Von Papen, recalled German military attache at Washington paid money to individuals in the United States in connection with the attempts to blow up munitions factories or bridges was made today by the semi official Over seas News Agency.
 The agency's statement says:
 Berlin press reports state that the former German military attache at Washington, Captain Won Papen, had in his possession letters and bank books, seized by the British at Fal- mouth, which contain evidence that he paid money to persons connected with explosions in munitions factories in the United States, and to other criminals. The Overseas News Agency hears from competent auth critics that these assertions are not correct.
 Captain Won Papens letters and bankbooks, which were seized in Vio- lation of the safe conduct guaranteed to him, are of purely personal char acter or have to do with usual business affairs. Captain Won Papen never paid money to persons connected with attempts or alleged attempts against intuition plants, bridges or any other American property. No check ever was paid to Werner Horn, who is ac- cused of an attempt to blow up Ca nadian railway bridge.
 "The letters and checkbook stuns, if reproduced in fac-simile, would prove that nothing in the way of il- legal relations was established between the dates of such payments and of criminal attempts.

Allies nt RIIacuS.

London, Jan. IS, 4:22 a. m.-Re- ports received this morning from Ger man sources state that the allies have landed forces at Piraeus, besides those disem parked at Phaleron. The ssaIoniki correspondent of the Daily Mail says that the allies are continu- ing to land troops at Orfano, fifty miles northwest of Saloniki.
 Piraeus, the port of Athens, five miles southwest of that city, is the second largest city of Greece. It has a capacious and excellent harbor on >its northwest side and there are two Shall harbors on the opposite side of fthe peninsula. The modern town has been built since 1884, though Athens had a great port there in ancient times. There has been no intimati )n from any previous source that the all lies had landed troops at Piraeus, al though the semi official.

when we contemplate Industrial
and commercial conditions" says Mr..
Hughes, 1--WE see that we are living
I'm fools paradise" This Is the con-
dition to which the administration and
It's supporters have deliberately closed
their eyes. When the war cloud broke
over Europe, this country was expert
encing the most serious depression 1t
had known since 1898, when the Demo-
cratic party and Its policies were In
full control Of the United States.
Suddenly there came from over the
sea demand for munitions OF war,
clothing, food, supplies, everything
needed by vast armies and by coun-
tries whose sons were taken from the
field and the workshop. never to re-
turn.
AS result our exports and the bal
ance of trade in our favor have reach
ed figures far SURPRISING any ever be-
fore known. Temporarily, especially in
the East. there is no lack of work at
high wages. for Europe must pay
whatever price America asks. No
thoughtful person would imagine that
this condition Is anything like real
prosperity. How false II IL. we In
Oregon, who have the clearer vision,
because not clouded by the smoke
from munitions factories. have fully
felt and fully appreciated.
What the Republican candidate for
president says about 1t the Democrats
know to be true:
"Our opponents promised to reduce
the cost Of living. This they have
failed to do. but did reduce the oppor-
tunities Of making living. Let US
not forget the conditions that existed
In this country under the new tariff
prior to the war. Production had de-
creased; business was languishlng;
new enterprises were not undertaken;
instead Of expansion there was cur
tailment and our streets we're filed
with the unemployed"
The suspension Of these conditions
Is not nationwide, only sectional, and
depends upon the duration Of the war.

deed. living In fools paradise.-Port-

PROMOTES PROSPERITY.

Constant reiteration of the false
statements Of liquor advocates has I'm.
doubtedly led some persons to the
conclusion that Maine is suffering and
has been impoverished because of It's
prohibition policy. A careful and
truth-seeklng investigation will show
the exact opposite to be the case.
A bulletin by the United States cen.
sus bureau reviewing the 80 years pre-
ceding 1912, shows the steady advance
ment Of Maine in financial independ
ence. In 1880 Malne's per capita
debt was SS.49, as contrasted with an
average of II states of $5.4S. In 1912
it has been reduced 70 per cent and
the average of the other states only SO
per cent. Maine now owes $167 per
capita, while the other states average

license system, which the liquor adyo
Gates say is the best license law In
the world, has per capita indebted
ness over 13 times larger than the pro
hibition state of Maine. The general
comfort Of the people of Maine is
manifested by the large percentage Of
homes owned free from debt. In 1910
the total number of homes owned was
according to the census report, 109f
Dos, and 70 per cent of these were free
from mortgage.

" EHLT FALSE"
In search of the facts concernlno
the claim OF the brewers that "beer /.
liquid bread" the Christian Advocate
leading periodical of the Methodist
Episcopal church, wrote to the director
of the laboratory Of the Connection
board of health, asking for a scientific
statement. The unabbrevlated repy
was as follows:
'Edltor the Christian Advocate, In
reply to your note l will say that 1t is
hard to conceive more misleadne
statement than to call beer LIQUID
bread The facts are that the grains
out of which beer Is made do contaln
n deal Of nourlshment, adapted both
for fuel and tissue building. In the
process of beer-making the materlnls
are mostly destroyed and removed BY
the process Of clarifying. AS a result
the final product has lost practically
all the tissue-bulldlng material It ever
contained, and most of its fuel food
has been converted into alcohol, which
has less fuel value, TO say nothing Of
its poisoning effect upon the nervous
system. Before the fermentation the
material might possibly be called
liquid bread but not after the fer.
mentatlon and clarifcatlon; for these
processes have destroyed nearly all
the value It originally possessed. The
final product has no tissue-bulldlng
value, only n little fuel value, and in
addition has poisoning action upon
the rcrvous system. Bread has large
value as n tissue builder and also as
a fuel, and in addition has no bad eff.
feet upon the nervous system. To
call beer liquid bread is therefore ut.
terly false and badly misleading.
