RANDOM THOUGHTS BY THE ED.
ITOR

I am eternally doing something
which, after reflection, I wish had
been left undone, and saying some
thing l heartily wish had been left
unsaid Perhaps this is because / am
not you.
So much has been said that | find
it awfully hard to say, and think, any
thing new, if, indeed, I am capable
of either, and sometimes l think the
bank of thought is broke.
/ envy only one man. The man
who is entirely satisfied with himself.
He is surely happy if there is any
such thing in this world.
A pleasing lie is more palatable
than the truth. Also it wins shekels
where the truth would drive them
from your door.
If you would avoid making enemies
never disagree with man. Leave
him under the impression that you
agree with him. No matter how
absurd, impossible and hurtful his
opinions may seem to you. Agree
with him and he will put money in
your purse"
"What propheteth it a man if he
gain the whole world" and die and go
to hell, and in his old age leave an
estate for his heirs to quarrel over
and divide with lawyers?
If l had my life to live over again
| would not toll, neither would I spin
anything but soft talk to please peo-
pie.
I dare say few people are quite
satisfied with themselves-their dis
positions and such gifts as they pos
sess. They often see, or meet, people
with traits they wished they pos
sessed. Now, if I had the making of
myself l would have been as unemo-
tional and phlegmatic as an English
man; as scientific and plausible as a
German, as quick-witted and light
hearted as a Frenchman; as musical
and artistic as an Italian; as ener-

Edison Photographs Make Music
All Others Only Make a Noise

Fiddlers only fiddle. With VIC
lin the artist stirs the soul. An Ed
ison is music-any other is joke by
comparison. The mince pie that
"mother used to make" was the
height of culinary art. In alimentics
her pie is what Edison's photograph
is in music. Fill that same pie with
saw dust and you have in alimentics
what "all other" monographs are in
music: A delusion and a snare.
Something to make angels weep and
the family to go crazy. Edison's
costs more than "The other" If you
are fond of good music, with discrim-
mating tastes, and "the other" did
not cost you anything it would not
only be dear but agony to your out
ragged soul.
Read the account of the test that
the Edison underwent before criti-
cal audience. "Forty great musicians
were in the audience. An artist stood
beside the new Edison and sang, or
played. Suddenly, without warning
the artist ceased in the middle of a
song. The monograph took up the
song where the artist stopt and con-
tinued it. Could the audience tell
when the artist ceased and the phon-
ograph began?" No, it could not, as
a dozen newspaper reporters said
who reported the result of the test.

also be deducted from these state
ments: If those who have lived here
the longest, know the profits in rails
ing apples for the market in the We
natchee velley, will pay two and three
thousand per acre for bearing or
chards, their investment is based on
experience. They consider such an in
vestment safe and profitable. Only
in such reasonable way can we &C.
count for the high prices at which
lands are changing hands in this val
ley Whether this line of reasoning
will convince the doubtful ones we
can not say. Our endeavor here has
been to state facts and allow the
reader to draw his own conclusions.

WHY THE HIGH PRICE OF OR
CHARDS

We have not the exact data but are
quite confident that we do not over
state the number when we say that
more than one hundred orchard tracts
have changed hands in the Wenatchee
Valley in the past eight months, rang
ing in size from five to one hundred
acres. Several have changed hands
repeatedly, and always at higher fig
ures. The most significant fact in
connection with this activity in or
chards and fruit lands is this, in a
great majority of case the purchasers
were men who have lived in the val
ley for five, ten and fifteen years,
and would be reasonably expected to
know land values and from long ex-
perience know something of the profit
and loss in growing apples. That two
and three thousand dollars per acre
would stagger those not familiar with
the occupation might reasonably be
expected. Also, one may expect that
confidence in these values may be en-
couraged, if not actually established,
when it is stated that men who have
lived her the longest, and have gone
thru all the ups and downs of the or
chard business, are paying the highest
prices for orchards. Of course, they
know, too, what lands are best adapt
ed; what varieties of trees are most
profitable; and if the orchard has been
we'll cared for and is of mature age.
These are facts one knows from ex-
perience and observation, and are
quite naturally taken advantage of
and profited by. The further fact may

ROOSEVELT'S BIRTHDAY, MON.
DAY, OCT. 81

Leavenworth is expected to contrib
ute one hundred dollars to the Roose-
welt monument fund. Some contri-
buttons have already come in but the
greater part remains to be raised.
Those who wish to contribute to this
fund may do so by leaving their money
with Mr.. r. B. Field, at the State
Bank, or at the Echo office, and tax
ing receipt for the same. Whether
you are particular admirer of
Roosevelt does not matter. If you arc
an American and believe in his Amer
icanism you should esteem it pleas
ure to give to a cause which is calcu
lated to keep up interest in those
ideals, and that genuine devotion to
the land of his birth which he exem-
plified by precept and example in his
life.
A Roosevelt meeting will be held
in the city hall Monday evening at
o'clock.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER "a, 1919.
ECHO UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP
AFTER NEXT WEEK

After October 31st, 1919, owner
ship of The Echo passes into new
hands. The retiring publisher print
ed the first copy January 4, 1904,
Every Friday thereafter to the pres
ent time (almost seventeen years. the
paper made its appearance regularly.
Measured in terms of money the re-
turns to the publisher have not
proved anything to boast of, An
equal amount of energy and persever-
ance devoted to developing and or
chard and growing apples might have
resulted in amassing a great fortune
and then by going where he is not
known, might have started a bank.
However, as he does not hold mere
money in very high esteem, and re-
fleets over the strife it might cause
after he has shuffled off, no regrets
are left. Escaping bankruptcy, APP
proximates success in the publica-
ton of a country newspaper. 1t
was Phineas T. Barnum, collector of
curiosities and great Snowman, who,
years ago. offered prize of ten
thousand dollars for rich country
editor. The prize was never called
for.
Because we are fortunate enough
not to have to "walk out of town on
our uppers," is due, not to sense,
brains or genius, solely to being
constantly on the job, working like
the devil and living modestly.
One can devote his time and best
efforts to business for so long
time until, in way, it becomes
part of his being, and to part from it
leaves a void. In a sense that is
not easily defined this is peculiarly
true of a newspaper. Even coun-
try newspaper. In giving up The
Echo there is lingering regret, not
unlike parting from an old friend for
the last time. In the conduct of
The Echo we made some friends from
whom we part with a sigh. We also
made some enemies, but, as we were
never an ardent hater we part from
these with the comment, making
enemies is incidental to the newspa-
per game Unless the publisher is a
spineless individual, devoid of con-
victions, or started out to be all
things to all men, so that Thrift
might follow fawning," he is sure to
make enemies. Forgive us our sins,
even as you hope to be forgiven.
For the City of Leavenworth we
wish all things that make for its best
interests in the future. From its
people, who have been generous in
their support, and helpful in many
ways, we part with hearty good will.
We will shortly betake ourselves to
the southland, there to spend the
winter, and may return about apple
blossom time, if the fates are kind.

HALE REPUBLICAN IS
 FOR SUFFRACE E
This Gives Constitutional Amendment Resolution
 Another Vote.

Washington, May 22-The woman suffrage constitutional amendment resolution, which passed yesterday by the House, gained another vote in the Senate with the announcement today by Senator Hale, Republican, of Maine, that he would support it. Sen ator Hale voted against the resolution at the last session. Suffragists pre- viously had claimed sufficient votes to ensure adoption of the resolution in the Senate.
 Senator Ha1e's announcement was made in a telegram sent to Col. Fred N Dow of Portland, Me. After ex- blaming that his vote was cast against the resolution at the last Sen ate session because his state defeated. woman suffrage in the referendum in 1917, the Senator said he felt justi- fled in supporting it now in view Of the recent action of the state legfsla- tor in granting presidential suffrage to the women of Maine.
 "If they are qualified to vote in a presidential election, said Senator Hale. they certainly are qualified to vote in any other election"

BIG THREE SEND ITALY NOTE ON SMYRNA LANDING Request Explanation As To Why Force Was Landed
 in Turkey. ORLANDO OBJECTS
 TO VENIZELOS Nature of Italian Reply or Its Acceptance Not
 Known.

Paris, May 22-(By the Associated Press)-It has been learned in trust worthy quarters that the United States, Great Britain and France have united in sending a note to Italy requesting an explanation of the landing of Italian forces in Turkey.
 The Italians landed forces at Ada lia. Budrum and Makri during the period when Premier Orlando and Foreign Minister Sonnino had with drawn from the Peace Conference, making the landings without notice to the Allies.
 The nature of the Italian reply and whether it was acceptable to the senderS of the note was not known this forenoon.
 The repotred Italian incident appar- entity complicates the Turkish prob- lem. already a vexed question, with which the Peace Conference heads have been struggling for some little time past.
 In evident anticipation of a Greek mandate to administer the Smyrna district, Alled forces were landed at smyrna last Thursday. meeting with considerable resistance from the Turks but making themselves masters of the city. Italian troops were re- ported to have participated to some extent in these landings.
 According to a Paris despatch of May 20, however, the Italians had previously landed forces at Adalia, on the southern coast of Asia Minor, and likewise disem parked troops at Budrum 96 miles southeast of Smyr- na- and at Makri, on the Gulf of Makri.
 There had been nothing to indi- cate that these landings were not by agreement among the Allies, and, in deed, some of the unofficial forecas sts as to the probable division of Fur kish territory under League of Ma tions mandatories have indicated the probability that Italy would be given the Adalia district to administer

LAST LAUNCHING ON H0USAT0NIC Albee Takes Water Today Plant to Close
 Tonight.

The Housatonic Shipbuilding Com pany plant on the Housatonic river Stratford. will close tonight. The sixth and last of the wooden hulls contracted for by the Emergency Fleet will be launched at 3:45 o'clock this afternoon and will be named the "Albee." Mrs. Norman Collins of Bridgeport. wife of the purchasing agent of the company will be the sponsor.
 The first five of the boats have been fitted out as steamships. but following the policy of the Fleet cor poration to stop building wooden steamships this last hull was com- pleted as a barge.
 On account of the lateness of the hour of the launching the "A1bee" will be brought to Bridgeport and docked here overnight, and tomor- row will proceed to Norwalk-
 There are many rumors that a new company will take over the yards and build tow boats there.
 It is also rumored that the Lake Torpedo company will transfer part of their plant from Bridgeport and build hulls for their submarines there.

Washington, May 22.---High winds today again prevented the naval sea- plane NC-4 from leaving Ponta Del Gai1a. for Lisbon, on the second leg of her transatlantic flight. The Navy Department this morning received the following message from Admiral Jack son at Ponta Del Gada:

ROBBER KILLED
 IN HOLD UP Attack Collector For Chain Store Concern in Penn
 sylvania.

Philadelphia, May 22-Desperados operating in a stolen motor car kill ed one of their number today in a sensational holdup here. A youth who was acting collector for Ii large chain store concern was at tackled on the street after he had left one of the stores with the receipts in a bag strapped to his wrist. The bandits, five in number, sprang at him and grabbed the bag. He pu. up a strong fight, lodging blows and hitting back. One of the robbers fired a revolver at him, just as he tucked to escape a blow from a blackjack another one was aiming a; him. The shot hit the robbef fairly in the forehead, probably caus- ing instant death.
 Some time later the motor car was found abandoned on the street about five miles from the scene of the hold up The stark body of the dead bandit was in it. The man was young and apparently of foreign birth.
 The robbers got away with be- tween s400 and $500.

It is alleged the lunch man re- esnted the remarks of his customer and administered a severe beating. during which kubas was knocked down and kicked on the head. Kubas was thrown out of the saloon and found wandering along Broad street shortly after midnight by Officer Jurns. The injured man was bleed- ing freely from the mouth and ears. An ugly lacera.ion was found on the scalp and the man appeared to be out of his mind.
 The policeman called the Eme' . sency hospital and >fDr. Harry H. Weiss hurried kubas to St. Nincent's ] ospital fin the ambulance. Reports from the hospital this afternoon in . cicate that Kubas is in a serious condition suffering from a possible fracture of the skull.

This document will be complement cd by specific proposals and counter proposals which will bring the vol tune of the reply up to about sixty typewritten page~. This ia exclusive of the various notes already trans rnitted, announcement of which was made by the German delegation in Tuesdays communication to Premier Clenneuceau of the Peace Congress.
 The delay of several days in the framing of the reply has been due to the absence of confirmation from Count von Brockdorff- Rantsau and his associates at Versailles of deci- tions reached at Berlin. The Ger mans have been carrying on delfbera- ton at three places-Versailles, Spa and Berlin--this separation making more difficult the work of co-ordin- ating and unify1ng the steps decided upon In Berlin there appears to have been the greatest difficulty. as the work of getting the peace com iuiSsioners and assembly in agreement is getting much delayed through con- stant intervention of party leaders.
 While the material contents of the German reply in all its essential joints have been agreed upon by all the participating factors. the textual construction of the note will require a few days beyond the time limit set Try the Entente. (This extension has been asked for and granted.)
 The German counter-proposals will be of definite character. and some of them will be SO framed as to in vite or suggest a revision of the pres eut terms. It is also believed that the Germans will suggest that neutral arbitrators be called where the is- cues are exceptionally complex and that they will recommend the ap- pointment of mixed commissions com trising Allied German and neutral representatives to pass upon the ques- ton of the restoration of tho de- vastated districts and some of the more urgent problems relating to in- fernational trade.

WARN GERMANS NOT TO DESTROY
 ARMY PROPERTY
Civilians in Coblenz Assume
 Arrogant Attitude.

Coblenz, May p - By the Asso- ciated Press)-Because of increased indications of friction between Ger man civilians and soldiers throughout the American area of occupation, American officers today warned the Burgomasters and other German of ficials that they would be held re- sponsible for any violations of any attempts at destruction of American army property.
 The American officers ordered the German officials to caution the civ i1ian through the newspapers and otherwise that any resentment dis played by civilians toward the soldiers would not be tolerated and that ser ious results might follow if the Ger mans should persist in the attitude exhibited recently in various parts of the area of occupation.
 Reports to American headquarters show many instances in the last few days of numerous shop keepers at tempting to overcharge American sol diers and that Germans in the streets were particularly arrogant and re- fused, in many cases, to give half of the sidewalk.
