UNDERMINE STAND
PIPE AT HAMPTON

Hampton, Nov. II. Having done
faithful service for more than twenty.
five years, the standpipe of the city
waterworks, estimated to weigh about
seventy-five tons was undermined and
thrown down With boom that could
be heard for several blocks and a great
rush of air as the upper end partially
collapsed, the steel tube came to earth
within few inches of where it had
been calculated it would fab.
This pressure tank was erected in
the spring of 1891. The estimated life
of such a tank is twenty years. For
several months it has been very much
of a nuisance because of leaks. At
tempts to patch these have not been
successful. Last winter leak de<el-
oped and some Of the trees in the park
were ruined by the ice that formed on
them.

ULTLMATUM
 TO BERLIN
Congress Informed by President of His Ultimatum to Berlin; Hopes
 Germany Will Comply.

Washington, April 19.-President Wilson's long expected final warning to Germany that the United States will break off diplomatic relations un less she abandons her present meth eds of submarine warfare and immed- iate]y declares her intention to do so, was delivered today i'll note to Ber- lin and was announced by the presi- dent ill an address to a joint session ot Congress-. The president demands nol!l:ns less than the abandonment Of submarine Wartale against commerce.
 Tue president had guarded his plans with most effective secrecy until 10 o'clock this morning, when he disclcs- eG them at a conference which chair man Stone and Senator Lodge, the ranking Republicans of the Senate Foreign Relat tions Committee, and Chairman Flood and Representative Cooper, the ranking Republican of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the House. He outlined to them what he had said in a note dispatched to Ber- lin last night, and what he purposed to say to Congress today. When the president had finished reading, he looked up, and seeing Senator Stones grave face said:
 "You look as sad as l feel.''
 I'll, chairman's response was to in- Jnire of the president if he had told tnem all he had to say. The conferen- co thus ended.
 The word of the presidents plan spread quickly through Congress, and whe: he took his place at the clerks desk in the hall of the house promptly <; 10 clock. he was confronted by an assembly of gravely quiet senators and representatives who greated him with applause and later hung intently upon every word he uttered and cheered him heartily when he finished.
 The president asked nothing of Congress; he came only to inform it of his action. He did it in 15 minutes and Congress went to work solemnly impressed with the situation which confronts the country. The scene had been dramatic. The presidents de- meanor reflected his state of mind and an impartial observer would readily say the demeanor of Congress as whole reflected it's sympathy.

Next week will be clean up week, the mayor having set the entire week for that purpose. He also suggests that it would be a good time to paint up. Be- gin cleaning up early so that you will have plenty of time to make a perfect job of 1t. It would be a fitting way and d fitting time to celebrate the opening of the water and sew craze systems. A town that can afford to complete a big en- terprise like that in the inter- est of sanitation cannot afford to overlook the smaller, less expensive, but no less impor- tant item of cleaning up and beautifying. A town of filthy alleys and back lots would be entirely out of harmony with the general scheme, and it could we'll be accused or incon- sistency. It would be too much like wearing a tailored suit over a dirty body.

Since the delegates to the na- tional convention are now el- ected by popular vote, the blan- ket primary rules in state of- fees, and even that the presi- dential candidate is selected by the popular vote, what is the state convention to do anyway? It can only ratify what the peo- pie have done and come home. This is as it should be. When conventions of politicians and even legislators quit being jeal- ous of the peoples rule we will have an ideal government.

It is said that the effect of the recent decision on the Alex ander road law will be to re- tard road work. It would have indeed been wonderful had the law been perfect. The next legislature should amend the law so as to make it more eff fective and at the same time leave plenty of safeguards to prevent it's abuse. There are probably now thirty or forty districts ready to be formed. Tie state highway engineering force can only take care of two or three during the year, it is said. The court holds that the reading of the law does not permit other engin- eers being deputized to do the preliminary work. There are also other points requiring amendment.

If after all the United States

If after all the United States is forced into the European trouble as we'll as the Mexican trouble it would not be because President Wilson has lost his head and acted hastily. He has exercised the utmost pat fence and wisdom. Beset on the one hand by those who
 would see us rush into war recklessly, and on the other, who would have peace, even without honor, he has steered a straight course that to him seemed right. If we are in- deed going to sever relations with Germany, we must not conclude that this necessarily means war. If we break with Germany it will not be for any selfish purpose. but that the rights of neutrals may be res rected.
