BIG SAWMILL WILL BEGIN
OPERATIONS THIS MONTH
Head Officials Here and Think Con-
ditiOns Favorable for Early
and Continuous Operation

Mr.. w. A. Graft, of Chicago, vice
president of the Great Northern
Lumber Co., and Mr.. F. S. Scrits-
meier, of Portland, Oregon, also
connected with the company, have
been here two weeks investigating
conditions with a view to determin-
ing when it was advisable to begin
operating the big sawmill. They
were joined here Tuesday evening
by Mr.. F. T. Boles also of Chicago.
who is president of the company.
The conclusion has now been reached
to begin operations this month un-
less some unforeseen incident should
make it impracticable.
The supply of logs on hand is
larger than last year at this time
and is being added to every week.
Logging operations, under the di-
rection of Mr.. Quigley are being en-
ergetically prosecuted in several
camps. The outlook, while not as
flattering as it might be for the
numbering trade, is yet not wholly
bad.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING

In the past two months several
regular meetings of the Council
failed for lack of a quorum. Last
Tuesday evening, however. the may
or and six councilmen were present
and there was something doing. Af-
ter reading the proceedings of the
last regular and special meeting and
approving them, the first matter to
come up was the reading of a com
municaton from the Washington
Survey and Rating Bureau in re-
spect to information received about
the reconstruction and repair of
what had been considered fire
risk and prohibited under ordinance.
The clerk was instructed to write
the bureau full report of the mat
ter and the status of the case at
this time, and ask whether it will
increase the insurance rates in the
vicinity of the old building.
On account of the above commu-
nication no action was taken on a
request from w. C. Roach for per-
mission to remodel a building with
brick veneer at the front and back
of the property referred to in the
communication from the bureau.
1t was moved and seconded that
hereafter no bills for supplies or
team work will be allowed unless
a requisition for the article fur
nished or the work to be done,
signed by the city clerk, accompany
the bill.
A motion was made and carried
that the city advertise for sale one
thousand feet of 10 inch pipe at .38
cents per foot FOB. at the mouth
of the Icicle.
The city attorney was instructed
to draw an ordinance increasing the
city clerks salary to $125 per
month. $75 of the salary is to be
paid out of the general expense
fund and $50 out of the water fund.
The following bills were audited
and ordered paid.
Rutherford Nero. Co., supplies at
Intake, S23.36; Mutual Mere. Co.,
supplies, $20.10; Brown Livery, $25;
C. L. Williams, labor, $4,000; H. E.

ONE SCHOOL DIRECTOR WILL
BE ELECTED TOMORROW

Under a misapprehension this
paper announced two weeks ago
that two directors would have to
be elected on the End of March. In
vestigation reveals that Mrs. L. j..
Nelson, under the law, will hold
over another year. A successor will
have to be elected to Mr.. L. w.
Woodrow who has served two years
and acted as clerk of the board. His
services have been so satisfactory
that pressure was brought to bear
on him to stand for reelection,
which he has consented to do. If he
will have an opponent we have not
been advised of the fact. To make
sure of his reelection those who
have the best interests of the
school in mind should not forget to
go to the polls tomorrow and vote.
They will open at p. m. and close
at 8 p. m.

Do WOMEN OF THIS TOWN
PERFORM RED CROSS DUT

To the interrogatory propounded
above we unhesitatingly say, some
of them, many of them do. Some
do not. Why? Is not so readily
answered. There are slackers in
every community, among both men
and women-those who shirk every
responsibility in life. There are
some such here. There may also
be women here who do not believe
in the war. We know there are
men of this kind. These women
would of course refuse to do Red
Cross work on principle. And again
there may be some who can not
spare the time from their household
duties, or honestly think they can't.
The great majority of the women of
Leavenworth do Red Cross work.
Some much more than others. We
suspect tho that Mr.. Turner's words
are not directed at those who are
honestly trying to do their duty, but
that he was trying to arouse others
to a sense of their duty. The patriot
ic women of this country have re-
sponded nohly to the governments
request to aid the Red Cross. We
confidently assert that the slackers
here are not out of proportion to
their number in other towns of this
size.

REYMONTE IN MORE TROUBLE
THIS TIME AT OLYMPIA
Practices Medicine Without License
Out On $500 Bond-Says He
Is Chilean

According to Olympia dispatch of
Feb. %, DIR. Edward de Reymonte,
known to unenviable fame in Leav-
enworth, where he made his home
for three years, was arrested for
practicing chiropody and what he
calls bake oven doctoring. He was
arrested on complaint of DR.. Partlow
county health officer, who discovered
that one of Reymonte's patients was
a victim of serious contagious dis
ease. Reymonte it is reported,
did not know the nature of the di-
sease. He was released on $500
bail.
Reymonte went to Olympia about
two months ago and has been under
observation there since his arrival.
He claimed he had served in the
Russian army as surgeon, and had
been an officer in the British army.
Ill He CldlI1ltu W Ue d
Chilean by birth. While in Leav-
enworth he claimed to be Russian.
Several times says the Olympia
dispatch, he appeared on the streets
garbed in a dark uniform with the
star of brigadier general on his
shoulders. He failed to produce a
certificate to practice medicine, how
ever when called on by the county
authorities.
While here he made a pretense of
practising medicine, or most any
thing to exc out an existence, and
was looked upon as cross between
freak and an impostor. When
the war broke out he tried to get
into the army, a soft job preferred,
it is told, but was turned down be-
cause of his very evident foreign
birth, and because his references did
not for some reason satisfy the gov
ernmental authorities.

FORMER GAME WARDEN WILL
RE AVIATOR

Mr. Ross Watson, well known here
because of his activity in arresting
violators of the fish and game laws,
then county game warden, now liv-
ing in Seattle, where he has been
since last fall, has joined the avia-
tion service, say his friends, and
will soon leave for training camp
at San Diego, California.

MR.. LESTER TURNER AND THE
LEAVENWORTH RED CROSS
Letter that Recalls An Interview He
Gave Echo Reporter and Com
ments By the Editor

In your issue of January 25th you
published an interview with me rel
ative to the work of the Leaven-
worth Red Cross Chapter, in which
stated that l was surprised to find
so little work being done by that
chapter and in your editorial on that
interview you took issue with me
and said that you were convinced
that majority of the women of
Leavenworth were interested in Red
Cross Work and that many of them
were exhausting their strength in
it.
should be very sorry to do any
injustice to any Red Cross Chapter
by undertaking. the working spirit
within the Chapter or underestimat-
ing the amount of it's output.
The small amount expended by the
Chapter for material in four months,
September 1st to December 31st, the
total expenditure from the Relief
Fund for Military supplies amounted
to $633.47, or monthly average of
$158.37 This in itself tells the
story, for no chapter turns out more
finished articles than it buys ma
aterial for. With yarn at $3.50 a
pound and other materials cores
pondingly high, $158.37 a month
doesn't go very far.
You excuse the women on the plea
that there is no leisure class in your
town and that all the women are
compelled to do their own house
work and consequently have no time
to spend at the work rooms of the
chapter. This condition, however
is not peculiar to Leavenworth as
there is hardly town in the state
of its size that is not similarly sit
uated. There is certainly not
woman in Cashmere or Waterville
who employs servant and at Wat
erville I found forty women at
headquarters, thirty of them en-
gagged in making surgical dressings
and at Cashmere the room seemed
well filled.
In most every community there
are few women who are working
devotedly and unselfishly with
high sense of duty and patriotism
for the Red Cross, and too much
cannot be said in praise of them,
but the remainder of the women are
sitting back and allowing them to
do practically all the work.
Do not be deceived into believing
that every woman you see making
a sock or a sweater is doing honest
Red Cross work. There is lot of
dawdling in that kind of work Many
women take materials from the
Chapter and keep them out for
weeks and weeks after the articles
should have been finished and re-
turned
This is the time for self denial
and sacrifice, a time for hard ear
nest, patriotic work. The Red
Cross is an arm of the government.
It is one of the most important of
war activities; just as necessary as
the bearing of arms, and every
woman who refuses to do her duty
in that service is as much Stacker
and as little entitled to respect as
the man with yellow streak who
attempts by cowardly means to
evade service. -" 2

Wallace yesterday for appendicitis.
In the evening at o'clock the pa

of the anasthetic and the indications
were that he would survive the OPP

Liberty Loan Appeal
BY Julia r. Burr.

by JuIid n. ouTVs
Twas Liberty Loan Day,
The way when most people drew
their pay.
The people walked to the bank
And tried to be first in rank
To buy Liberty Bond
For the boys "over there"
OF whom they are fond.
Buy Liberty Bonds more and more,
That will make the Hun sore;
So buy and buy and buy
For the boys in khaki.
They are very glad
That they have made the Hun mad.
So don't be afraid to lend your
money,
While you're lending it be sweet as
honey.
Every cent will be paid back
From Uncle Sans money sack.
Do your bit in buying bonds
For the boys of whom We are SO
fond.

about twenty-five billion dollars in
American money; and besides that
two of the most wealthy and best
situated states of France-Alsace
and Lorraine.
Frederick Won Bernhard, Ger
man military leader, who in 1911,
wrote the famous book Germany
and the Next var" says in it that
Prussia's power had its foundations
laid by successful wars which had
been purposely brought on. That
none of the wars which Frederick
the Great had fought had been
forced on him, and that he never
had postponed any of them as long
as possible. And he adds that les.
sons from history prove to the
Germans that wars which are care
fully planned and brought on, have
the happiest results.

Causes of the War

Bentley, principal of our city high
school, in one of his war lectures.
But in material gains 1t is true
Germany has profited by wars.
Prussia was once one of the small
little kingdoms in a neighborhood
of rival little states, but by fighting
and continually brawling, the little
bully grew more and more power
full until finally, in the rough and
tumble history of those little Ger
man provinces, Prussia found her
self the big bully-the gang leader
of Germany.
But Germany at that time was a
restless, unhappy, discontinued
mass of conquered states, who hat
ed their master, Prussia, although
they feared her. And Bismark, at
that time the great statesman of
Prussia, declared that the only war
to get the Germans united was to
make all of them fight against
some one else. 1t was on the same
principal that the best way to keep
two boys from fighting each other
is to have a third boy start calling
them names.
1t was for this reason that Bis
mark brought on the -Prus-
sian war of 1870, and by skillfuliy
arranging the matters SO that
France declared the war, Prussia
was able to gain all Germany to
her side, and together they de-
feated France.
At this Bismark has succeeded.
Germany was united and glowing
with pride and glory of their ma
ton under Prussia's rule. Bleeding
France was forced to pay the price
In money, Germany demand'

Germany believes in war because
Prussia, the powerful state that
rules all the empire, always has
found war to bring in money, new
lands and influence or national
pride.
In the first place there is a tradi-
ton that the very name of the rul-
ers of Prussia was given them be-
cause of their rObber-band spirit
years ago when they lived in a
strong castle overlooking one of the
most travelled roads, and whenever
travellers passed by, they would
rush down onto them with swords
and daggers and demand large
sums of money.
Whether or not this is true, the
fact remains that in German "ho-
hen zoll" means high tax" and
their name is Hohenzollern. And
more than that, every portrait
which any of the kings of Prussia
have had painted show them in
war-like poses. Even the portrait
of the present Kaiser William III,
which was painted to represent him
taking up his rulership, shows him
mounted on charging war horse,
with his sword in hand, making
him appear as nearly like the old
war god Thor as possible, and yet
he said that he believed in peace.
(From the war information film,
Wake Up American
"The Prussians seem to have a
Twentieth Century mind, with their
genius for modern science, but a
Twelfth Century heart which glo-
ries in all the old medevieal spirit
of war and conquest that other ma
tons have out-grown," said Mr..

$l,l8O.4O Is Sent to
Belgians from the
Richmond Fouer Sales

Eleven hundred eighty dollars
and forty cents was the final sum
OF money sent off to the Belgian
children from Richmond as a re-
suit of the Forget-me-not Flower
sales given by the city boys and
girls in August and September.
This was sent to Major Oster-
reith, the Belgian military minis
ter, last Thursday, and from Wash
ington he will send the money di-
rectly to the queen of Belgium,
who will divide it out among the
Belgium refugees.
Since the Germans are holding
all of Belgium except one little
corner, many thousands of the Bel
gian children are over in Holland,
England or France and in order
that schools for the refugees may
be kept with the Belgian customs
and system, and even Belgian
teachers, many men and women
are doing all within their power
to keep the Belgian nation from
being entirely destroyed, even
though their lands are invaded by
the enemy.
The money which was sent to
the Belgian babies will mean that
the children not only win be kept
from being cold and hungry, but il
also will mean that after their
country has been given back to
them, they can go back with their
same uaint customs and language
and the old Belgium which all the
world loves, will not have been en-.
tirely lost.

Uncle Sam Asks Boys
to Locate Walnut Trees

Patriotic service which all boys
can easily render is locating black
walnut trees. The government is
badly in need of black walnut lum-
Der and wants to know where ev-
cry tree of this species is located,
SO that il need be they can buy the
lumber of the owner, or at least to
know what there is in the country
to depend upon.
County Agent Kline, who has. his
Office on the first floor of the Court
House has asked that all boys or
girls in Wayne county notify him
of any such trees they know, and
he will send the report in to the
government.
