COLOGNE GAZETTE LIKE
ROOSEVELT HOPES FOR
WILSON DEFEAT NOV. 5

when it suited him to do So"
the kaiser's organ goes on to
say of the American elections ::
at lisa trial of strength which
Wilson thus provokes. If he
succeeds, his dictatorship rests
upon a foundation enabling
him to proclaim himself czar
of America, without fear of en-
countering opposition. But the
probability is that he will not
succeed. In any event, the No
vember elections will have a
significance such as they never
had before"
This hope from the kaiser's
organ for the defeat of Presi-
dent Wilson in the congressi-
onal elections has attracted at
tention here. The language is
almost identical with that
used by Roosevelt and others
in American now assailing the
president. The similarity of
the German contention and the
anti-Wilson contention is re-
garded as impressive.

BARREL OF SALT
CONTAINED WHISKEY

1t is hard to say in what shape a
shipment of whiskey may be camou-
flaged when it arrives in Pendleton, as
shown by the discovery last night OF
80 gallons of perfectly good whiskey
in 10 gallon kegs dressed up as bar-
rels of salt.
Yesterday afternoon District Attor-
ney r. 1. Keator saw some barrels be-
ing unloaded from stock car at the
O.-D. stockyards and the manner in
which it was being done attracted his
attention. With Deputy Sheriff Joe
Blakely he started to investigate the
thing. but by the time they reached
the scene the truck on which the bar
rels were being loaded had disappear
ed and the best information they we're
able to get was that three barrels of
salt had been loaded on the truck
and that baled hay had been piled
about them to keep the barrels from
being seen.
Later. after they had given up the
search. over the phone Mr.. Keator
was asked to investigate three barrels
that looked suspicious. The investi-
CATION proved to he the three barrels
of salt and on opening each was
found to contain a 10 gallon keg OF
whiskey with salt packed around it in
the larger barrel
Until the arrest of parties shipping
the whiskev In is made the district
attorney has given no names in con-
nection with the case.
The car of horses from which Mr..
Keator SAYS the barrels were. taken
was shipped to :. Metz and Son.
