THE COUNCILS DUTY.

To begin with, we confess that our nfor- nation is second-hand; but the source is sui aciently reliable to warrant the suggestion that the Moose Hall with more than three or four hundred people in, is not safe. Far from it and the large gathering of people in there last Monday evening" made it uncomfortably unsafe So much so that many apprehended danger and left.
 The Moose Hail is the only one in town to accommodata--~,ore than three or four hundred people at one time As most of those large gatherings are for patriotic purposes; the hall 5 free. II that case, it would seem but fair that the city authority see to is safety Even at the city expense; CT prevent those gatherings Nov is the time to attend to that and not after 2 catastrophe.

happiness and sorrow have been changed by the war If they would only look at their neighbors whose sons have been buried in foreign soil, or a Red Cross daughter who was blown into bits by Hun bomb, they would find that their troubles are nothing in comparison.

BILL" IS APPREHENSIVE

A dispatch today tells us that the Kaiser advised his people yesterday thus: "I confident ly hope that the German people in these earnest times will resolutely gather around ME, give their blood their wealth and last breath in de- fense of the Fatherland." We agree with Bill that his people should gather around him; for they have much to gain by doing so They pos sibly would retain the favor of being slaves to Prussiaism and be butchered at the end. The Kaiser, with his unsuitable taste for blood altho 3 coward by nature rejoices at the spilling of blood The world has been protesting witness to that. Let the German people gather around their master, 1t will make their extermination easier.
