League Opposition Not Political
Cry of "Wolf
We can admit the very great abil
ity of Woodrow Wilson without in
curring thereby any obligation to
accept him as a safe or even a stable
leader. It is known that upon most
of the issues that have come up dur
ing his administration the president
has revealed a somewhat amazing fa
cility in changing his mind. From
woman suffrage on down to keeping
us out of war the Wilsonian policy
has shown some astonishing reversals
of position. This being the case why
should we be any more ready to sub
scribe to the charm of his 7-hetoric in
the matter of entangling our affairs
with those of Europe than we have
found it possible to be upon matters
of vastly smaller moment? Pretty
phrases may fall like music upon the
car. They do not always penetrate
the intelligence nor do they infalli
bly engender conviction. It is all
very well to cry "politics, politics!"
every time the President meets with
opposition at the hands of congress
but does "politics" furnish the key to
the situation? Not all of the men
concerned in blocking the Wilson
league of nations idea may fairly be
classed among those actuated by po
litical considerations. In their num
ber are to be found men who class
high as "statesmen," men whose men
tal processes are far removed from
the ruts and wheels of party chi
canery. We may be sure that under
normal conditions these men would
much prefer to support rather than
antagonize their nation's executive.
That, facing the right of choice, these
men have elected to stand in bitter
and uncompromising opposition to the
presidential stand, goes to prove that
all is not well. It will not avail
as matters now stand to take refuge
in the old familiar cry of "politics."
Opposition to a league that will
bind us to entangling duties in alien
lands and one in which we shall have
but one vote to Great Britain's six
is not to be met with the wolf-cry of
"politics."—Philadelphia Dispatch.
WANT CENSUS ENUMERATORS
Census Supervisor Thos. A. Scott,
of Spokane, sends out a circular letter
from which the following extracts
are taken. He urges, in the interest
of public good, the hearty coopera
tion of the people, to the end that we
may have as near as possible a cor
rect return. He says:
"The 1920 census will be taken
thruout the United States, beginning
January 2nd next. The law provides
that enumeration must be completed
within thirty days. It is desired to
obtain enumerators who live within
the enumeration district in which he
or she performs the work.
"I am short of applicants from Oka
nogan, Chelan, Douglas and Lincoln
counties. I need a great many more
applications from capable, dependable
persons residing in those counties. I
also wish to have applications from
every precinct of each county in order
that enumerators when chosen will be
well distributed in residence.
"The director has informed me that
the compensation will be such that a
person of average industry will be
able to earn from $4 to $6 per day.
I have recommended to him that he
pay the maximum amount allowed
under the law, which is $6 per day,
where a person is employed by the
day. I have also recommended that
the maximum compensation be paid
where payment is per inhabitant and
per farm enumerated.
It is hoped that the people of each
county will take a sufficient pride in
the affairs of the government, and
particularly in the matter of the een
.sus, that they will be willing to offer
themselves for employment as enum
erators even tho they may feel that
the compensation allowed by congress
is not wholly adequate. I assume
that the people of a county would not
like to have it said that they were so
grasping on the one hand, or indif
ferent on the other, as to make it
necessary to nave st'an Kcrs sent 'n
to their community to perform this
particular governmental duty.
While the work does not actually
begin until January 2nd, it is neces
nT y for persons who desire to be
considered for such employment to
make applications at once. The time
for receiving applications has been ex
tended to November sth. The time
for taking the test has been extended
to November 14th or 15th.
The test consists of filling out a
sample schedule from a narrative of
three families ami of filling in an
swers on a farm schedule from
printed data furnished. Three hours
will be allowed for the test. Tests
will be held in Chelan county at Wo
r.atchee, Leavenworth and Chelan.
Kach person who sends in a formal
application will be furnished a card
admitting thim to the test. The card
will give hm the date, hour and place
where the test will be held.

When a woman admits timidly that
her husband "sometimes is a little
hard to get along with," you're safe
in betting that he's very hard to get
along with all the time.
• • •
How does it happen that having a
lot of money just naturally seems to
make so many of them perpetually
grouchy ?
• • •
You may believe you are important
in your little community, but think
how important the chief ant is in his
little colony in hill building time.
• • •
If some people had a four-hour
work day and every day off but one,
they'd still produce statistics to prove
that all the world's work could be ac
complished if eveybody did an hour's
labor every week.
• • *
When the world gets back to the
belief that what we need is not less
work but more of it sufficiently done,
maybe we'll begin to get somewhere.
• • •
A thick-headed man always gives
thin excuses.

Fall fashion not —women's skirts
are to be longer and men's purses
shorter.
* • •
It must be hard work to spend all
your time trying to figure out a soft;
living.

A snob is always important and gen
erally talkative, which is what makes
him so irritating.

If you can chuckle over the pomp
ous acts of small men instead of be
ing vexed by them, that is the best
indication that you are not one of
them.

If you can be a politician without
becoming a hypocrite, you may be

Today's troubles may be tomor

Too many friends are cumbersome,
but a few are imperative in every
normal man's life.

"A lean horse for a long race," of
course, but a fat horse has the satis
faction of knowing he doesn't have to
race.

"Marriage is a lottery," but tho
haste with which some plunge into it
would lead you to suppose they think
it is a "sure thing" game.

There is hope for almost any youth

efforts and has no ambition to become
a "prominent citizen."

A mother's child never grows up.

A good spender is generally a bad

Peculiar, but when the head of the
house has a "batting" rally, he's gen

• • •
When tempted to use the word
"lady," remember that half the wo
men brought into police court on as
sault and battery charges testify that
the fight started because somebody
said that one of them was no "lady."
• • •
A bachelor always pats his friend's
offspring on the head and remarks
"children are great institutions" and
then tries to change the subject.
• • •
The trouble with the children whoso
manners are perfect is that so often
nothing else about them is.
• • •
Lots of people are not valued at
their true worth and it's lucky for
them that they're not.
• • •
There are lots of tiled people and
a few overworked ones, but more peo
ple need work than need rest.
• • •
The man who boast.s that he's never
afraid to speak his sentiments usually
seems to have disagreeable senti
ments.
• • •
The trouble with a good many who
do their duty as they see it is that
they are short sighted.
• • •
If you are good at alibis you're not
often good at anything else.

Marriage may be a failure but how
do you know that singleold ageis a
success?
• • •
■When a woman spends her time in
behalf of MOM "movement," unless
THE LEAVENWORTH ECHO
she'i paid for it, she's usually very
young or old, or else she's homely.
• • •
Another reason why some men fa
vor woman suffrage is because they
think it will give their wives some
thing to think about instead of keep
ing track of their husbands.

Alarmed. "We must economize,"
says about everybody, and then about
everybody doesn't.

Who remembers when a girl who
wasn't married at twenty or engaged
to be, was considered an "old maid?"

Slander's slimy tongue
Slips slily over words
Of inuendo that do more harm
To innocence
Than open accusation.
No longer is it
Form the best
Boldly to proclaim another's guilt
but rather softly to suspect
And in suspecting put the note of
half praise
That implication may be sronger
Than bold charges
And far less possible
Of any refutation.
A rattlesnake givM warning
When about to strike
And his poison is quick and deadly,
But a gossip's tongue is oily
And its poison slow
And for it there is no antidote
Save time, for truth is not always
mighty
And it does not always prevail.
