Why Colds arc Dangerous

1t is the serious diseases that colds
lead to that makes them dangerous.
They prepare the system for the re-
ception and development of the germs
OF influenza, pneumonia, tuberculo-
sis, dyptheria, scarlet fever, whoop-
ing cough and measles. You are a
great deal more liable to contract
these diseases when you have cold.
For that reason you should get rid
Of every cold as quickly as possible.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy will
help you. 1t is widely known as a
cure for bad colds.

posed highway on the west side of
the river than ON the east, and as
the bulk of the taxes of Bear Lake
county are borne by the taxpayers on
the east side of the river, naturally
the people interested themselves in
the selection Of the best and most
economical route of the highway.
So far the people of Montpelier
have simply asked the county COM
missioners to investigate the two
routes, make surveys, and ascertain
which is really the most feasible and
most economical route of the two. AS
to Nounan, Montpelier wants to see
Nounan connected up with the best
roads possible. and will continue to
work to that end.

CITIZENS
OF MONTPELIER

IN a few weeks the taxpayers of
this city will be confronted with one
of the most important questions in
the history of the city. 1t is the
paving bond election that will deter
mine the fate of the city's first en-
deavor to establish a street paving
district for the purpose of raising
funds with which to pay for the city's
share of the paving in the district
which embraces Main street from
Fourth avenue to Eleventh avenue,
or the Short Line depot, and side
streets for one block north and south
from Eighth avenue to Eleventh ave-
nue..
We are confident that the taxpay-
ers of the city will see the great bene-
fits that are sure to accrue from the
proposed improvements and will vote
in favor of the bonds, and thereby
help the city make another great for
ward move. While it may seem hard
for many to bear the expense at this
time, yet the payments are spread
over period that will materially ease
up on the burden and in many cases
property owners in the district will
not notice the payments.
Now is the opportune time to car
ry out the paving program, inasmuch
as the city fathers have gone to
much expense and spent much OF
their valuable time in making all pre-
liminary arrangements for the i'm
provement district.
VOTE THE BONDS.

OUR POLICY

IN the past The Examiner has
adopted a partisan policy in things
political but the new management
has decided to change that and from
this time ON the paper will be inde-
pendent.
By this we do not wish to be un-
derstood that we shall refrain from
participating in politics. We do not
regard a non-partisan attitude as
meaning that sort of thing whatever
We may be very active, on the 9TH
er hand, but we shall not be active for
any particular political party unless
the policies of the party, according
to our judgment, shall be the best
for the community. We reserve. the
right to discuss political problems
and candidates and shall always feel
at liberty to espouse the cause of
anyone irrespective of his political
affiliations, providing he stands for
and reflects our own notion of right
and justice.
We feel that in assuming the nom
partisan policy along these lines, we
can best serve the community. We
shall endeavor to the utmost to be
Just and give everyone, political par
ties and individual candidates, an alb
solutely square deal and we take this
opportunity to say to all political
parties that any information entrust-
ed to US in business way will be
absolutely safe and will be religious
ly regarded as professional secret
that will not be divulged.
We propose to always stand for
the right as our powers of discern
ment prompt us in the matter and
yet our columns will always be open
to the discussion of political Ques-
tions, from a non-partisan stand
point, upon the compliance with the
laws of the state and the long estab-
lished rules and regulations of jour
nalism.
We especially invite the public to
use the columns Of the Examiner in
setting forth their views on public
questions. All articles for publica-
ton should be signed by the author
for Identification by the editor, but
in no case will the names be publish
ed unless so desired by the author.

sure the people of Nounan that Mont

county at heart, and want to coop

Of all. Taxpayers Of Montpelier have
been apprised by state officials that
1t will cost between $4,000 and

OF MODERN ART
Small Wonder Young Lady Artist Ex-
uIted as She Gazed on Her
Completed Painting.

The young lady looked before her
with entranced gaze. She looked low
ingly on the purple sun as it arose in
the west.
Her eyes fingered appreciatively ON
the bright green sky, with splotches OF
red and orange stretched across its
spacious breadth.
Clasping her hands with JOY, she
gazed at the fiimsy, odd-looking clouds
of yellow. splashed across the heavens.
Several fishes were flying in the sky,
while birds could be seen in the waters
below, swimming and drinking.
Then her eyes turned toward where
few ocean liners sped across the
horizon, with sails unfurled; a fisEer-
mans castle, and the lowly fisher out
side cleaning some fish, seated on
one-legged stool in patch OF red
grass.

Wanted to Drive Dolphins

Captain Knyg Johansen, repre- senting the Wrangell Co.opera- tive association, appeared before the council for the purpose of re- questing the privilege of driving two dolphins near the St. Michael Trading company dock. The mat ter was left in the hands of the street committee. Ion the fol- lowing day the street committee looked into the matter and were of the opinion that dolphins driv- en at the place where they were desired would render it inconven- tent for boats to get in and out from the bight where the muni- cipal float is located at the rear of the hotel. Therefore, the re- quest of the Wrangell Co-opera- tive association was not granted. ]
 Petition from Automobile Owners
 A petition was read from 1. c. Bjorge, William Berger and H. P. Mccormack asking that sidings be provided at certain places on certain streets, and that other street improvements also be made. Members of the council were of the opinion that while the request of the draymen was a reasonable one the present con- dition of the town treasury would not consistently permit of the ex- penditure of such an amount as would be necessary to make all the improvements requested in the petition. The matter was left in the hands of the street committee with authority to make such improvements for the bene- fit of draymen as were deemed

lected because the present teach ing force could not possibly give this department the time requir- ed.
 The director of the school board closed his address to the council with this appeal: Shall we have a high school that will be equal to any town in Alaska, or shall we have a makeshift. The Mayor appointed Council men Campbell, Barnes and Nuss- baumer of the Street committee to confer with the school board and make recommendations to the Council.

 Gentlemen:
 Hoping that operating ex- penses wotlld drop to pre-war prices I have hesitated in ap- plying for an increase in cleo tric light rates, but instead of decrease in prices, they con- tinue to advance, and l am compelled to ask that the fol- lowing rates be granted, which will be cheaper now than at the time the present rates were made:
 First 25KW. 17h cents per K. ". From 25 to 200 XIV. IS cents per a. ". From 200 to 300 XIV. 1312 cents pI. -. W. Over 300 K. w. l2h cents per XIV. Minimum charge SIPS.
 On street lights charge of 3 cents per watt per month, which would be about 8 cents per XIV. on an average for the year.
 These rates to become efec- tive no later than May I, 1920
