OUR GUESS
Right will prevaT ;r municipal
election. Just wait ark
Although this is mo: v.e believe
that the return of the . ' show a large
majority for tne bur this evening.
The reason for this be":;. .u- fetched, the
taxpayers being in the 1 •• . ority unders
tand the financial corse:' " :e city and also
know they have the rig’n: to whether their
taxes should be inci : a few non
tax payers and <>tr.; r —-which makes!
all the difference in t - and therefore
will vote accordingly. G . eir victors- to
day. Let us hope that tl: a >us will go way
back, sit down and r- the taxpayer?
ask them to come for.", k • is how much
confidence we have nosition will be
defeated. Although v hat we may be
forced to tell another - • that will
prove us a poor guess; .
NOT CONC LI SI’
The proposed Leagu- . -ns is finding
many opponents if re; - --m Washington
tell the truth; but men o * of the league :
as a menace to the -k * • have short
memories to say the - seem to for
get that it is" but a few oars .nee we regarded
Germany as a giwe c! w that policy, and
we were very anxious ’•wsl acceptance
by European nations. - ~ same time we
were considering who.* ion would help us to i
maintain it. I-' it rut ut at this policy is
simply an assertion of -he r G of nations to
self-determination wb.lt* the rt tue proposes
to extend to other naG sack with the
power of all member- or tl tyae in place of
one . In that case it is but reasonable to assu
me that the league would let the United States
settle our own trouble, for Europe has trouble
of its own which we would not care to meddle
with, which w*uld be left to the European na
tions to settle.
THEIR FINISH IN SIGHT
It is said that when Dr. Karl Liebkneeht, the
late leader of the radical wing of the German
Socialists, beganto write for the newspapers
and spread his Socialist propaganda among the
people, he did not want to sign his own name,
so he cast about for a proper name that
would inspire. He went into history and found
a Roman gladiator, one “Spartacus” who had
given much trouble, Liebkneeht then signed his
articles “Dr. Spartacus.” Thus his followers
called themselves “Spartacans” and since the
assassination of their leader, the radicals or
“Reds” in Germany who are giving the new Ger
man government so much trouble have gone by
the name of “Spartacans.” But according to in
dications, their finish is in -sight.
THE RUSSIAN PESTS
Now and again we hear of an American re
turning from Russia and protest the armed in
tervention against the bolshviki in that coun
try. It is significant, however, that they inva
riably prove to have been very intimate with
them. Ex-Ambassador Francis reports as
much and says that ninety percent of the Rus
sian people would welcome strong intervention
by the allies. And it is gratifying that Mr.
Francis’ opinion is worth a regiment like those
protesting, and as it looks today, had we follow
ed his judgment a year ago or more, the pests
might have been easily exterminated at its
birth, but “Watching-Waiting” was still alive.
The Seattle school board has dismissed for
alleged disloyalty a high school teacher named
Niedhauser. There may be nothing in a name,
but a teacher with one like that is very sugges
tive and as kis kind have deceived us, it is as
well not to take any chances.
If we must go on saving food that the Rus
sians may be fed, we would appreciate it very
much and would be a lot more cheerful about
it if the bolshevikis in this country would be
have themselves meanwhile.
