Press in Germany Is
Hostile to Wilson

The Hague, Feb. 15.-Comment
in the German press on President
Wilson's last address is decidedly
hostile in tone. Discussing the
message, the semioffioial Nord
Deutsche Algemeine Zeitung, accord
ing to telegram from Berlin, says:
I'VE take note of President Will
sons assertion that he does not wish
to interfere in a European dispute,
but this assertion is not entirely re-
concilable with his other state
ments regarding the participation of
all parties in a discussion of dis
puted points. 1t is desirable that
Mr.. Wilson return to the old Monroe
doctrine, which formerly was sacred
to America. Thus far his proposals
amount simply to an intention to
compel the world to sign an Anglo
Saxon peace.
After the experiences of the war.
especially with the Anglo-Saxon
Powers, nobody will be inclined to
sign such a peace, which would not
be lasting, but would represent the
tyranny of England and the United

which could be fulfilled by the appli-
cation of the principle of self-deter-
mination, which is recognized as ap-
plying to Russian territory. Cholm,
! it is declared, is such a mixed coun-
| try ethnographically that there can
not be a question of its belonging to
Poland.
Opposition to the arrangement is
combatted by the statement. which
declares it is unintelligible. inasmuch
as the principle of self-determination
is appropriate for all Russian terri
tory and, therefore, for Russian Po-
land 1t adds that the arrangement
did not surprise the Poles, who new
er received definite promise and
who often advocated the principle
now applied to the demarcation of
the frontier.
Cornerstone of Peace Structure
Peace with the Ukraine" the
statement continues, "is the corner
stone of the entire peace structure
and opposition to these arrangements
cannot be regarded as compatible
with the interests of the monarchy.
In conformity with the stipula-
tions of the treaty, all Ukrainian sur
plus grain is to be exported up to
July 81. A commission has been
formed to determine the amount of
supplies and to what extent we can
give assistance in this respect. As
sistance will be given both techni-
cally and militarily. Military sup
port will be required in central de-
pots and functions must be protect
ed from attacks by bandits and the
Bolsheviki. 1t is not a question of
military alliance, but common
organization for the protection of
railway service and delivery of
grain"
The statement then refers to the
effort produced at Brest-Litovsk by
the conclusion of peace with the
Ukraine, and says:
Assume Pose of Oppressed
"Trotzky and his government, rec
ognizing the impossibility of con-
tinuing the war under the present
! circumstances, preferred to lay down
their arms with a certain eclat and
to assume the pose of an oppressed
|. people. Russian tactics, however,
appear to be the worst for them be-
cause we are in no wise bound by
their declaration and from the
standpoint of international law we
are still in a state of war with Rus
sia, qualified at present by the tenn
porary armistice.
Russians FURNISHED EXCUSE
"The Russian government gave
us opportunity to denounce the ar
mistice and continue the war, or to
make a similar peace declaration.
The Austro- Hungarian government
has no reason to denounce the armis-
tice.
I'm Germany a more skeptical
opinion appears to prevail, but an
exchange of views should soon take
place. On the other hand, it would
be great mistake on our part to
announce a state OF peace now and
thus bind our hands. That would
not c. IL, for example, we have to
intervene to protect the Ukraine.
Our relations with the Russian
government, however, are not
broken: neither do the Russians wish
this. On the contrary they desire
to continue diplomatic relations
through the wireless and the COM
missions now sitting in Petrograd.

Careless Use of Soap
Spoils the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully,
il you want to keep your hair look
ing it's best. Most soaps and pre-
pared shampoos contain too much
alkali. This dries the scalp. makes
the hair brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
Just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless), and
is better than the most expensive
soap or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough
ly. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
which rinses out easily, removing
every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky.
bright, lustrous. fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply every mem
Der of the family for months.

reaches to the river bed. In some
places the ice is twenty feet high
The gorge is worst in the channel
between the east shore and McCor-
mick's Island. The ferry to the city
farm, which was pulled up the road
way in anticipation of the ice break
ing, was almost completely covered
by the piled up ice.
Many GorgcS
Small gorges are common in the
river from where the ice broke. On
the west shore below the city the ice
is piled high in places, but there
has been no property damage from
high water, is the report.
The ice moved out of the Juniata
yesterday afternoon, causing the
greatest damage reported. At the
mouth of the Juniata it gorged Sc
high that the Juniata bridge was
moved several inches, it is said. The
ice gorged so high that it scraped
along the timbers of the bridge
flooring. Rising water behind the
gorge inundated a large part of the
surrounding country. Some girders
and flooring of the Juniata bridge
were broken. A clubhouse was car
ried away by the rising water and
ice.
Mrs. Jacob Johnson, an invalid.
who has been confined to her bed
for month, was removed from her
home along the West Shore at the
Juniata bridge in rowboat, ana
carried to the home of her daugh-
ter, Mrs. Charles Sieg.
Gorged in North Branch
In the North Branch, the Ice
which gorged at Wilkes-Barre is now
forcing its way down the stream
West Branch gorged at Jersey Shore'
near the entrance of Pine Creek
yesterday, and the water is rising
behind the gorge. The ice mas not
vet broken at Williamsport.
The ice in the main stream ana
both it's branches, have yet to pass
Harrisburg before danger OF an IN
undation is past. The gorSes IN the
river here will remain until tney
are pushed out by high water. Inc
Federal Weather Bureau announced
this morning that there WIN prou- ',
ably be enough snow water To-Day
to break up the ice in the branches
and push it out of the entire river
system. In case the ice does not
pass out to-day the chances are that
it will await another warm SPELL as
the temperature is expected TO pc
far below freezing tonight. rms
will freeze the gorges ana prevent
the free running out of the river.
River Men at Work
River mon predict high water TO-
day, which will carry more of the ice
from the stream. The temperature
is expected to remain high, which
may melt enough snow to carry the
ice out entirely.
The State Water Supply Commls-
sion had been at work all night, and
it was through their efforts that
river men and River Front property
owners were enabled to save all their
property. Coal and sand men with
barges along the river were up all
night, and some of them experienced
some exciting moments. A negro
employed by Ray Steward, it is said,
leaped out over the cracking, tear
ing ice and fastened a fiat which
had torn away from its moorings
with a rope, thus saving his employ
er one of his barges. None of the
numerous coal and sand barges were
reported destroyed.

Wilson as World Judge
President Wilson is accused by
the Lokal Anzeiger and the Vos-

to act as world judge so that the
coming peace may be an Anglo
American compact.

as a peace offer, while it is pointed
out by other papers that the Rus
sian war theater was mentioned es-
pecially in the official army report
of Tuesday A Berlin telegram to
the Koelnische Volks Zeitung of
Wednesday says:
The Government is not wiling to
continue relations with Russia on
any basis whatsoever unless the
present Russian government signs a
regular peace treaty. AS, however,
it must be reckoRed for the present,
at anv rate, that Trotzky does not
think of signing any formulated
peace declaration q situation is
created which makes necessary a
thorough discussion between the
government and the supreme army

was appointed to his present position
last winter By Governor Alexander to
fill the vacancy caused by the resig-

ceptably has he filed the position
that his candidacy has been endorsed
by the Bar Association of Blaine

will probably be no opposing candi-
