TIME FOR ROAD WORK

The recent dry weather is 8 re- min6er of the promise made by the territorial road commission that work on the Petersburg ScoW Bar road was to start as soon as weather conditions became favorable ,Gis spring iIs-@ksi
 Spring is now here, with as favor arie weather as may be expected in this rather whimsical climate.
 With the opening of this Sea son the need for the roaa is more .ppareut than ever before. The big cold-storage, fish-shiPping and caurery industries now open Ing at Scow Bay will be consider at!v handicapped until this road is put through, and the Stand ard Oil station. upon which work has now started, will be practi- ally inaccessible from anywhere by land.
 The completion of this project Is a matter of vital interest to Scow Bay aud to Petersburg. If 1t is to be completed this season, there should be no further delay in mak- Ing an altogether request that the Aork De started, as promised, right now.

HITS AT WARMONGERS
Maximilian Harden Says They
 Should Be MuZZIed.
German Editor Finds Nc Justification For GIeating over Alleged TsU-
 tonic Triumph6.

London.-By reading the following extract from a recent number of the Zukunft. Maximillan Harden's German newspaper, one may understand why Herr Harden Is in constant difficulties with the military authorities:
 After all, what special Justification Is there for the Pan-GermRns and the war at any price mouth heroes to glOat over recent triumphs over the Eng. lish7
 ri Is true that the U-boats have contrIved to bring It about that in an English hotel or boarding house no more meat is supplied at breakfast and that afternoon tea guests receive oHiy an ounce and 8 half of bread or cSke. Also au old maid of Dover, who fed her fourteen little dogs with milk and biscuits, has had to atone for her crime with Ave pound note. All this, however, does not yet spell the decay of the British empire.
 Tt Is time that the warmougers were muzzled and that the authorities once for all gave them to understand that they are determined, whenever the claims of any nation or group of peoples are found to be justified, that Germany would honestly aid them in establishing themselves on clean ba- sis of self-gOverument.
 May our rulers reflect while yet there is time that, unless new order be substituted for the old one of ViO- lence and force, human life will be come intOlerable and all hopes of hu- man development will be rendered sterile for ages to come.
 "QuestlOnS of the very highest lm- port are at stake, questions that are not concerned about securing Ger many's world power, but that involve the utilization of that power in the up- building of a new, bright and joyful human world, in which. if its founda- tlons are to stand strong for all time, every nation, the greatest, the small est-Germany as we'll as all the others must sacrifice self to secure It's neighbours welfare.
 This is the command of the hour. Dare Germany hesitate In Obeying It."

KAISER CALLS ON
PEOPLE TO RALLY

The German government Is pre-
pairing to meet the entente terms for
an armistice with the predicted ap-
peal to the German people to rally
for the defense Of the Fatherland.
the entente diplomatic cables an
nounce.
Various German newspapers were
quoted to the effect that hope of an
armistice and an early peace were
still to be seen in the latest action Of
President Wilson, but that the Ger
man people should steel themselves
for any possibility.
The papers generally spoke OF the
necessity that a tentative formula
tion OF peace proposals be set forth
before or simultaneously with the
armistice.
1t was the entente diplomatic view
that this new campaign seemed to be
"a Teuton maneuver aimed to mix
world issues up so as to make the
question of armistice and military
capitulation second to that OF peace
and to try to get the allies to discuss
peace before Germany has confessed
herself defeated.
