war to enforce it's DEGREES just that
much less hazardous. The average
European nation would be extremely
slow in provoking an assault from the
concerted powers of the league if
America becomes member. At pres
ent several brushes are going on in de-
fiance of the league, and that is ex-
actly what would not be possible were
the United States to become a part of
the league.
Mr.. Harding is hazarding the
chances he has for election by the
course he is pursuing, and, excepting
the ultra-stalwart Republican journals
there is evidence of It all around. Cox
may lessen his chances for success by
the ground he covers, but certainly Mr..
Harding has not added anything to his
political statue if recent events may
be used for opinion on the subject.
Logically this ought to be strong
Republican year, but can it be with
the heart of the world clamoring for q
peace that will make war impossible
and this country dumb as an oyster on
measures looking to that desirable
end?

IGNORING THE LEAGUE.

Some of the most influential papers
of the country are not taking kindly to
Candidate Harding's complete repudia-
ton of the League of Nations. They
feel that, regardless of the many
things said against this country's get
ting into ''entangling alliances" in Eu-
rope. we are already hopelessly mixed
in their affairs. They argue that if
the war was settled when the armistice
terms were agreed upon by the allies
we cannot evade the responsibilities of
the peace treaty as enacted at Yer
sailles. Had Mr. Harding said he was
for the league with certain reserva-
tons he would unquestiombly have
won over many good men in his own
party. 1t looks more and more like
trucking to the Johnsons and the
Borahs who do not want the league at
all. The newspapers argue that the
moral force alone of Americas stand
ing by the League of Nations would
make the actual necessity of going to

Thoughts Of Today

Whoever passes down Broadway
and looks at Trinity Churchyard must
notice the absence of the lovely trees
that used to shade the burial ground.
The picture is fresh in ones mind of
the flower beds, the grass plots and
the green shade that shut out the
noise and hustle of business so close
at hand. Now all is gone and nothing
but the blank open sky is visible. The
chief glory of the Palisades is the tree
crowned summit and the verdure
among the fallen rocks at the base.
From the southern end northward, the
march of civilization has begun to
eliminate all the trees once so vital to
the charm of these perpendicular
cliffs. You may build house, but not
an avenue of trees. Let our readers
consider the preservation of these
beautiful natural objects before it is
too late.

How to Bell the Cat?

Senator Harding in his speech of
acceptance shows the desirability of
rewarding the farmer for his toll and
places the means before him in organ
ization. Beside labor union, let us
have farmers union, he says. Then
let us abolish luxurious spending and
get back to the original old plain liv-
ing that our forefathers thrived upon.
This is repetition of the advice
given the mice in council BELL the
Cat" But they never settled how it
was to be done. Will the senator
kindly inform us how the pictures he
draws are to be attained? How are
the middlemen to be eliminated? Or,
shall we encourage middleman's
union to cope with those of the farmer
and the labOrer?
Let us see how it will work. Here
we have Il farmers union to bring
higher wages to working farmers.
Then labor union to bring higher
wages to the working men, and a mid
clemens union to bring higher wages
to the working middlemen The only
problem left us is to harmOnizel these
three elements. Perhaps the best way
will be to let them settle it between

COUNTY CLERK JOB.

County Clerk George Van Buskirk
informed an Evening Record repre-
sentative recently that he would seek
a denomination on the Democratic tick
ct this fall, and we opine he will have
no opposition at the primary election,
At the recent meeting of the Ber-
gen County Republican Committee, ex-
Director William p. Eager announced
himself a candidate for the G. O. F.
nomination for county clerk and thus
far no others have announced their
intentions, though some folks did try
to drag Andrew Gaul into the scrim-
mage.
Thus a good, lively contest is al
ready assured. The Democrats are
claiming Van Buskirk is very popular,
while the friends of Eager insist the
county is Republican. The latter are
encouraged, too. because this is a
presidential year Both are clean-cut
men, capable and worthy, and an in
teresting campaign may be expected.

S r. r. Thieves
Caught in Raid

Hackensack police on Wednesday
evening made a spectacular arrest of
Erie railroad car thieves near Passaic
Junction. The haul included three
men and two women, one of the latter
in male attire. From accounts the
bunch were the lowest of the low, re-
Winding one of the many legends of
London Thames pirates.
At about Z 80 a freight train STOP
ped at the junction and five persons
were seen to leave the house, presuma-
bly, four men and one woman. They
broke into freight ear and were seen
to carry several packages into the
house. AS soon as the train started
away the detectives, with drawn re-
volvers, approached the house and
dashed into the front door, each man
covering one person found in the room.
A shotgun was seen standing in a cor
ner, but the men got no chance to
use it.
The listfof the prisoners so cleverly
captured are:
Mrs. Anna Leliaert, twenty-four
years ola.
Jennie Vanderweile, twenty-five, and
Jacob Vanderweile, twenty-nine, sister
and brother of the leader
John Cosgrove Single, aged twenty
two.
Jack Daley, single, twenty-four
The detectives found seven cases of
tobacco, several cases of condensed
milk and other articles that had been
stolen from the freight car, and this
is held as evidence. Handouts were
slipped on the five and they were put
in autos and brought to Hackensack
and taken before Justice William III.
Rodgers, who held each under bail of
$1,000.
The women seemed determined to
show just how really tough they were
and smoked cigarettes ana used rough
language during the stay in the JUS
tees Office.-RecOrd.

AN APPRECIATION.

To the Editor of the Palisadian:
Dear Sir: heartily agree with you in
your editorial concerning the value of
the "home paper" as published last
week.
The little paper may sometimes lack
but after all what other public organ
takes the personal interest in us or
prints in full the news about us and
our dOings, even to the smaller things,
as does our own town paper whose
editor and manager is the personal and
often the old friend of each one of us?
In the outside papers we are only an
insignificant item or so among the
large interests of bigger places, in our
home paper we are of warm human
Importance among our own friends and
acquaintance whose doings we read
with the same kindly interest as do
they ours. The editor and manager
and reporters are ours and mingle with
us in our social functions and our
churches and community meetings, and
their interests are our interests.
Personally, l know of several who
having removed from the town have,
as they have said, kept in touch with
us through the "Palisadian" and knew
what we were doing in our clubs and
churches and parties just the same as
ever"
Let us all help the little nome pa
per and be boosters instead of knock

How Stupid of lis.

The spirit of that Easy Boss, Thorn
as Plat, must have brooded over and
inspired the Republican candidates
speech of acceptance. What plati-
tudes-take the reference to Mexico !
How could we have been so foolish all
these years? All that was needed
there was stable government and
for us to offer neighborly hand in
pointing the way to greater progress.
Wilson ought to resign right away for
having been SO stupid as not to have
seen that before. Think the proper
ty destroyed, the lives wasted and all
the misery brought on that unhappy
country, because we did not hold out
our hands to stable government.

An Easy Job.

Lenine's ideas are based on the the
DRY that the world is divided into
three classes, "wOrkingmen, beggars
and thieves" Now if he can only get
rid of the beggars and thieves all he
will have left to get rid of will be the
workers that work the working men.

Apathy.

You must pardon my criticisms of
the leaders of the various political
parties, but some things they have said
are open to criticism and I call atfen-
ton to them not to affect your vote,
but merely to point out their weak
nesses. An honest politician now-a-
days? : You smile Involuntary and
that smile is more expressive than any
open denunciation. Yet these people
are entrusted with our governmental
institutions which guard our interests
as free individuals. Do you not see
that we must change our Indifference
into intelligent action if we wish to
ward off certain calamity?

Listen to This.


Listen to Cardinal Gibbons: "The
temporal salvation of the American
people and the endurance of our gov
eminent in every emergency lie in the
faithful observance of the Constitution
and laws Of the country as long as
they remain on the statute books.
When from experience the. citizens of
the United States find these laws to
be visions or impractical, they will not
hesitate to modify or repeal them, be-
cause the people are not made for the
laws, but the laws made for the peo-
ple."

in this light and say whether they are
a fit subject for discussion with a
view to their modification. Are they
the only laws that must be left I'M

themselves. Suppose they kill the
middleman and divide the spoils, how
will that benefit the ultimate consum-
err? Nothing remains to us then but
to become either farmers or laborers.
Does not Senator Harding's picture
suggest the high idealism of Lenine's
Russian philosophy?
