WASHINGTON'S ADVICE

Opponents of the proposed league
OF nations, frequently quote the
warning against entering into en-
tangling alliances with European
powers given by George Washington
In his farewell address, but they
fail to quote from the more than so
letters which he wrote in 1786-S7,
urging the ratification of the con-
stitution of the United States. The
criticisms of that IMMORTAL docu-
ment were even more severe than
are now being directed gainst the
covenant of the league of nations
and many were the imaginary dam
gers pointed out and the dire results
predicted as certain to follow its
ratification. With this kind of crit
icism and opposition Washington had
little patience and many of his let
tiers apply with peculiar force to the
arguments which are now being adj
vanced against the ratification OF
the league of nations covenant.
Washington admitted that a real
league of states must mean conces-
sions by each state. A single qnes-
ton, he said must decide the dispute
and he stated it as follows
rs it best for the states to unite
CT not to unite? If there are men
who prefer the latter then unqueg-
tionably the constitution which is
offered must, in their estimation. be
wrong. But those who think differ
entity, and yet object to parts of *.
would do we'll to consider thar 1t
does not lie with any one state, or
the minority of states, to superstruct
constitution for the whole. The
separate interests, as far as it is prac-
ticable, must be consolidated; and
local views must be attended to. as
far as the nature of the case viii
admit. Hence it is, that every state
has some objection to the present
form, and these objections are dI
reeted at different points. rha
which is most pleasing to one is OBJ
noNious to another, and so vice YER

parts must yield little in order :,
accomplish it"
In preference to amendment

swers to the arguments advanced
against the ratification of the con-
stitution are peculiarly pertinent
to strikingly similar arguments
which are being advanced against
the ratification of the league of ma

politics should have unhappily in
simulated themselves into, and in
some measure obstructed the dis
cussion of this great national ques-
tion." There are writ
erS in opposition whose objections are
better calculated to alarm the fears,
than to convince the Judgment, of
their readers. They build their OBJ
jections upon principles that do not
exist, which the constitution does
not even support them in, and the
| existence of which has been, by an
! appeal to the constitution itself,
fatty denied, and then, as if they
We're unanswerable, draw all the
dreadful consequences that are nee
essary to alarm the fears and appre-
tensions of the ignorant and un-
thinking. 1t is not the interest of
the major part of those characters
to be convinced nor will their local
views yield to arguments, which do
not accord with their present or flu
ture prospects. The strength of the
opposition seems to lie in misappre-
I tensions, and desire to inflame the
passions and to alarm the fears by
noisy defamation, rather than to
| convince the understanding by sound
arguments or fair and impartial
statements, Baffled in their attacks
! upon the constitution they have at
tempted to villify and debase the
characters who formed it."
Washington finally points out in
many different letters the charac-
teristic fact that the opponents do
not even agree among themselves.

SAGE TEA DARKENS
 HAIR TO ANY SHADE
Don't Stay Gray! Here's a Simple Recipe That Anybody Can Apply
 With Hair Brush

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re- storing faded, gray hair to it's natural color dates back to grandmothers s time She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and attrac- tive. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect.
 But brewing at home is mussy and out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound,' you will get this famous old preparation. improved by the addition of other ingredients, which can be de- pended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair.
 A Well-knoWn downtown druggist says 1t darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it ha been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears, and after an- other application or two, it becomes beautifully dark and glossy.

HE WAS NOT LED AsTRAY.
Example of the Sane Leadership
of Samuel Gompers.


In no other respect has Samuel Com
pers shown saner leadership of labor
than in his refusal to be led astray by
the cry for labor party. Mr.. Gompers
has stood out against the European idea
of distinct labor party, and holds
rightly that labor has reached its high
est influence in the United States where
no attempt has been made to deliver a
solid labor vote to any party. In local
elections there are frequently labor
candidates, but they have never made a
showing comparable with 1abor's
strength. For workingmen like to in
dictate their right to an independent
vote. In the recent Chicago election the
candidate for mayor on the labor ticket
pol1ed only 54,753 of the $4,000 votes
cast. The labor candidate for city
commissioner in Springfield, ILL.,, ran
seventh among eight candidates. In
Bloomington John B. Lennon, former
treasurer of the American Federation
of Labor, was defeated by Mayor E. E.
Jones, Republican. Labor will find that
Gompers is right in holding that free
hand, 11ntrammeled by party connection,
gives labor greater influence in securing
favorable legislation than would come
through a separate labor party.
