Lodges Appeal for Nations Honor.

Every true patriot must feel thrill when he read.
the words uttered in the Senate yesterday by Henry
Cabot Lodge Republican Senator appealing to a
Democratic Senate to support Democratic President
in upholding the nations honor. II was a speech
which viii fill proud page in our history when
! Woodrow Wilson shall have trumphed in his battle
for the right when political selfseekers and servers
of unseen masters have been unmasked and the
whole American people see as the President and the
great statesmen who stand beside him in the fight
see now.
In Senator Lodges argument if it may be called
an argument for the repeal of Panama Canal tolls
exemption, there nothing about party platforms,
economic policies the power of the nation to do as
it peases with its property; merely pointing to
the path of national duty and national honor, in fol-
lowing which must keep our solemn compact with
another nation. There veiled rebuke to the op-
ponents of repeal his declaration that 1T not well
for any country, matter how powerful, to be an
outlaw among nations" followed by more inclusive
arraignment when he said:
As I have listened to some recent stirring
declarations of our utter fearlessness of
readiness to face world in arms, in defense
of toll exemption, about which noble
country would think of fighting, there have been
moments when ! have marveled as thought of
the GOODNESS and indifference with which we have
contemplated the murder of more than $50 Ameri-
not many miles from own border. The
violated rights, the .unaEenged, the almost un-
noticed deaths of those innocent people have
seemed to make heroics about canal tolls, where
there is no peril to any one peculiarly out of place.
The thrusting aside of party considerations and
economic policies to appeal patriotic American to
the patriotism of Americans lent peculiar force to Mr.
Lodges words and it conceded even by those op-
posed to repeal that they made deep impression on
the Senate. The speech put squarey before the Sen
ate the question involved, and which the Pres-
dent has frequently emphasized the necessity of faith
fully observing our treaty agreement if We are to
maintain Our place among the nations of the world
While Mr.. Lodge was so effectively appealing to
the Senate, rather startling disclosure made by
Representative Barnhart of Indiana, of attempts to
discover public sentiment against repeal in different
parts of the country AS evidence he referred to
alleged telegraphic dispatch, recently published in
Washington, in which the prediction was made that
public sentiment on the tolls question would prob
ably defeat Senator Shvey for denomination, while
as matter of fact Mr.. Shively had been renomi-
mated three weeks before This and other developments
Iend color to the suggestion that before many days
the President will publicly denounce the methods of
certain opponents of his repeal policy

THE OPEN FORUM.
Herald Readers Express Their Views
on Current Tonies


To the Editor: In this mornings issue
you stated that women vote Illinois
dry. 1t seems from the reports that
about 5000 saloons were to be retained
or voted out OF existence at the election
which took place yesterday, and It ap-
pears that the anti-saIoon forces voted
out somewhat more than half of the sa-
looms, while the others were retained.
and it Is stated that the saloons won out
in Springfield and that an actual ma
jority Of women voters voted to retain
them there, as well as in some other
places.
A similar election was held in Michigan
and Minnesota the day before, and ac-
cording to newspaper reports the anti
saloon forces were more successful in
those States than they were in Illinois.
yet about a year ago, voters in Michigan
defeated the woman suffrage proposition
by over 5000 majority, and man suffrage
prevails exclusively in Minnesota These
are all neighboring States and the con-
ditions would naturally be somewhat
similar.
II I have stated approximately the
facts. why should the result in Illinois
be attributed to the women voters?

a reverse for him only as he is a men,
Der of the party that is defeated. The
rebuke to the Democratic Congress is
plainly to be seen. The sins of this
Congress- its incapacity. its countless
follies. its lack OF guiding principle and
of authoritative leaders, and its marked
disposition to embark upon radical VEN
lures have, ii now seems probable, cost
the Democratic party the confidence of
the country. We believe that Mr.. Will

Like voice from the Dark Ages comes the de-

his bungalow half dressed to refuse take his wife

TO compel her to stay the premises in the even
