The league Of nations was "a

served.
The league of nations was Gas
sassinatedv or committed suicide
according to the partizan bias of thu
citizens. There seems no doubt that
so far as the United States is con
cerned, the league and the treaty Of
peace with Germany are dead and nc
one will deny that the death was
caused by politics, at which both sides
were playing. But the United States
can live and thrive and prosper and
remain the greatest nation on earth
with or without the league of ma
tons. We never had any fear that
the United States would be seriously
injured by either entering or remain
ing out of the league There has
been lot of political tommy-rot is
sued by both sides but it fooled very
few American people. They are ac-
customed to it and do not take the
politicians half as seriously as they
take themselves.

Sheriff Woody is to be commended
Tor the firm stand he has taken in the
reported |. w. w. invasion and for
his promptness in taking steps to sup
press the "wobblies." He is calling on
the right men for assistance when he
asks the American Legion to help.
The brave boys who fought the
kaiser's desperate but we'll armed
soldiers will not be frightened by a
few skulking anarchists who are
the rankest. kinds of towards. The
soldiers will remember the assassina-
ton of their comrads at Centralia and

Bill Carlisle, the desperate who
broke from the Wyoming penitenti-
airy and robed train, cannot be
charged with lacking in courage and
1oolhardiness. He entered Western |
Union office today and telegraphed
the railroad company thanking them
for the money he got from it's pass
engers, sending the telegram while
posses and cavalry were securing the
country for him. He notified Union
Pacific officials several years ago
that he would rob a certain passeng-
er train and he robbed it and made
his escape although special guards
had been sent to protect the train. He
IS the most spectacular and daring
outlaw in the west today.
