Back to Earth

(From The Los An0eles Times,
The country is sick of supermen.
President Wilson is distinctly of that
type. He has for eight years alnost
been a mystery to 80 per cent Of the
American people. All they know of him
is when he tells them where to head in
McAdoo is also claimed to be of tho
tribe OF supermen. He built the Hud-
son tubes, married the Presidents
daughter, was Pooh Bah during the war
and received 100000 q year from q
moving picture outfit. But the people
are weary OF supermen. They are tired
OF clouds and visions and getting their
orders direct from Mount Sinai. Thew
want somebody more like themselves
than they have been getting lately.

: The Green international

peasants Of id-Europe, unite!~
With this slogan new agitation is
being let loose from Munich, Vienna
and Budapest, with the program of
organizing the agricultural popula-
tlons OF South Germany, Austria
and Hungary into a we'll disciplined
political end economic movement
against the cities and towns. Among
the sponsors are the ubiquitous
Stephen Friedrich, champion trouble
raiser of southeastern Europe, with
his legion of awakening Hungar-
ians," and some of the Austrian
Christian Socialist leaders. But the
chief panjandrum seems to be
DIR. Helm, leader of the Bavarian
Catholic peasants, whose recent visit
at Budapest coincided with that of
Messrs. Liittwitz, Bauer and Ehr-
hardt.
The immediate occasion for launch
ing the movement is the boycott en-
forced by the workers of the neigh
Dor states against the terrorist gov
ernment Of Hungary. Now it is pro-
posed to array the "Green Interna-
tional" of the peasantry against the
"Red international" of the city
4 workers.
This, of course, is mostly camou
flage. What the hackers of the
Green internationally want is the
restoration Of monarchy and mill
tarism in South Germany and the
former Austria Hungary. For this
end they cleverly enough attempt
to manipulate that new kind of class
warfare which in the last two years
has arisen in the defeated countries.
the mortal antagonism of town and
country. In this battle the peasants.
controlling the food supply, hold the
stronger position. Naturally con-
servative, religious and monarchistic
in sentiment, the peasants of
Bavaria and the Alpine provinces of
Austria are easily infamed against
the goddess" republicans who rule
the cities.
The scheme Of the Green Inter
national appears to be setting up an
Austro-Bavarian monarchy, with a

also considered.
Munich and Vienna newspapers
report that arms and ammunition in
large quantities are being smuggled
daily across the Bavarian frontier
into Tyrol, Saizburg and Carinthia.
and the arming of peasants is going
on with the connivance of the local
and provincial authorities. This
causes great anxiety in Vienna, for
the peasant movement is directed
particularly against the former i'm
per1ai capital, now the stronghold
OF republicanism and social democ-
racy. incidentally, the wirepullers
of the green" movement believe
that by isolating lower Austria they
can circumvent the embargo Of the

resentment. Italy is estranged from
France because of French policy in the
Adriatic and from Britain because of
the British support of the Greeks. The
two rivals Of Italy in the East, Jugo-
Slavia on the Adriatic and Greece in the
Egean, are thus backed by Italys
recent allies, to the natural indignation
of the Italians.

of the Italians.
Allied Quarrels
In addition the United States has al
ready assumed the position which
Britain presently came to adopt toward
Continental questions century ago. In
word, then, the Germans arrive at
Spa to find the alliance which defeated
them almost as completely shattered as
was the Congress of Vienna at the
moment when Napoleon landed from
Elba. Then the temperance of COM
mon foe, the resurgence of a common
peril, served to restore the alliance,
which remained intact until Waterloo
had been won and Napoleon eliminated
forever. Presumably the return of the
Kaiser and the renascence of old Junker
purposes would reunite the present con-
querors of Germany, but even this is
doubtful, and there is small prospect
that William will return.
Thus the chance which Talleyrand
seized at: Vienna and was prevented
from turning to the profit of France
only by Napoleon's fatal venture lies be-
fore the Germans, not perhaps at Spa,
but in the international assemblies of the
immediate future, of which there will be
many. They viii have full opportunity
to endeavor to capitalize Anglo French
quarrels, Franco-Italian disputes, to deal
with the various European nations sew
orally instead of collectively, as hith-
erto. Only, fortunately, Talleyrand
seems to be lacking to them.
Cernsany's Hopes
Spa then is, in fact, the significant
disclosure of real change in European
affairs. Germany is on her way back;
she is taking her first step toward
the position which, from 1915 onward,
Prussia first and then Germany oc-
cupied in Europe. She has lost much
by the war In territory and in COM
mercial prosperity, her fleets gone
irrevocably and her colonies likewise.
Even Alsace-Lorraine will hardly be

at ell. Her losses to Poland, on the
other hand, seem far less final, and
she has not yet been compelled to
make any considerable payment against
the indemnities demanded by the VIC
tors, indemnities which would in real
ity prevent her becoming great mill
tary power in the next thirty years.

events to escape from any but the most

POMONA GRANGE MEETS
WITH STRANGER CREEK

Stevens County Pomona grange,
No. II, held its second meeting Of
the year with Stranger Creek grange
at their hall near Maud. Consider
ing the very busy season of the year
there was a good attendance. Very
much interest is maintained in the
warehouse movement by the people
of the community. A lively discus
sion of the movement was held at the
open meeting in the afternoon. Mr..
Bennett gave much information on
the subject. At the evening session
the fifth degree was conferred on a
class of five. Favorable reports
were given of the subordinate
oranges represented. Mrs. Della
Buckley was elected alternate to the
state grange which meets at Aber-
deem, June /. Burnt Valley grange,
through their delegate to the Pomo-
ma, |. L. Hixon, extended an invita-
ton to hold the August meeting with
that grange at their hall eight miles
east of Chewelah, which was accept
ed. No date was decided upon.
Stranger Creek grange has a good,
comfortable hall with kitchen at
tached, and the visiting grangers
were given a hearty welcome-Caro-

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
TRANSACTS BUSINE

A regular session of the chamber
of commerce met May rs, and various
subjects were discussed. Committees
were appointed to have charge of
entertaining the Chewelah Chamber
Of Commerce on Thursday, the pro
gram to consist of an automobile
party to the dolomite and Old Do
minion mine and other points of in
terest, banquet to be held in the
evening; the object of the meeting
to form a closer unity of the sur
rounding towns and communities to
work together for good roads, indus
trial opportunities and for the gen
eral bettelment of Eastern Washing
ton.
A letter of protest was ordered
sent to the head office of the tele-
phone company. A general COM
plant has arisen regarding the SER
vice rendered by the telephone COM
pany of late.
Steps are being taken in the way
of advertising matter and local dele
gates who are attending the state
grange meeting this year are endeav-
Gring to secure that meeting for Col
vile in 1921. The state grange has
representation of nearly a thous-
and delegates and is a meeting worth
while.
Committees were appointed to at
once begin on the popular subscrlp-
ton for the paving of west First
avenue, the city council having
passed a resolution for this work be-
ing done. The money to be raised
by subscription will be about 500 of
the total cost. 1t was ordered that
the grandstand now completed at the
fair grounds be decorated with coat
of paint.
The Fourth of July celebration was
taken up and advertising matter will
be ready to circulate soon. A large
crowd is expected as a good program
is being formulated, which will be
held July 5.

These are no longer the boy and the

COLVILLE WINS BASEBALL
GAMES AT GRAND FORKS

On Monday the Colville baseball
team appeared at Grand Forks to
participate in the big baseball tourna-
ment held there on the celebration of
Victoria day, and succeeded in put
ting Colville on the baseball map in
that section of the country. Teams
from Republic, Danville, Curlew,
Grand Forks and Colville took part in
the tournament, playing for purse
of 1925 the winner, and $75 to second
best.
The opening game was played be-
tween Danville and Republic, which
resulted in victory for the Republic
team with to 3 score. The
second game was played between Col
vile and Curlew, which resulted in a
final score of II to 0 in favor of Col
vile. The Republic team, winners
of the game against Danville, then
played the Grand Forks team, which
resulted in victory for Grand Forks
with an TO 7 score. Colville then
played Grand Forks for the deciding
game and won by a score of to 2.
This is the third consecutive vic
tory for the Colville boys, and they
have displayed very fine ability in
the games played SO far. Their hit
ting was especially good, nearly all
the boys hitting the ball squarely,
and there were few strikeouts.
Their field playing was also excellent,
and there were practically no errors
by our boys. Glen Snoddy pitched
for Colville in the game against Cur
lew and this team never got past
second base. Bill Laird pitched for
Colville in the game against Grand
Forks and the game was never in
doubt after the first inning. Lew
Wernli played a remarkably good
game at first base for Colville, and
seemed to stop everything that came
his way. Gerald. Smith played

up very well and should, develop in
to a very good ball player. Butts
caught both games for CAville and
handled the position in fist class
shape
Sill played third base, Rogers
shortstop, Tremblay left field, Hard
center field, Walsh right field.
All of the boys played together
very well, and showed very good
spirit. They have elected Carl Hard
as their captain and all of he boys
are showing very good disposition
in getting bel ind him and trying to
make the best team that Coiville can
produce.
The Colville band went to Grand
Forks on this day and furnished
music throughout the celebration.
They also made a splendid showing
and their music was highly appre-
ciated by everyone. The people Of
Grand Forks and the surrounding
country showed very friendly spirit
towards Colville and the boys were
royalty treated.
About rs people were present from
Colville, some making the trip by
auto and others by train
The Colville team will play the

A good game is expected.
