BRANDEIS AUGMENTATION
 APPEARS BE BLOCKED

WASHINGTON, D. O., Feb. 25.--- It looks as if the Brandeis nomina- tion is blocked of confirmation.
 There is report current in radi- cal and anti-munitionist circles that the withdrawal of Brandeis may be needed to obtain sufficient support for the Wilson stand in the matter of the German sea pledge.

Speaking of the opposition to the
presidents peace policy, the speaker
continued:
BY opposing what we stand for to-
day. the republican party opposes
what Hamilton stood for a century
ago. The founder of the republican
party and the founder of the demo-
cratic party, placing their country's
happiness above every other considera-
ton, forgot partisanship and made
American neutrality a national creed
We who follow Jefferson stand where
Jefferson stood, but we look in vain
for sign from the present leaders OF
the republican party to show that they
follow where Hamilton led. Where
Hamilton counseled moderation they
denounce it. Where Hamilton thought
only of country they think only of self.
Where Hamilton placed patriotism
above craftsmanship they placed paru-
sanShip above patriotism. How then
do they dare to speak for the great
body of American citizens who form
the rank and file of the republican
party? Do these leaders believe that
their republicanism is better repub-
ncanism than Hamilton's. their Amer
icanism a purer Americanism than
that of Washington?
II Washington was right, If Jeffer-
son was right, if Hamilton was right,
if Lincoln was right, then the presi-
dent OF the United States is right to-
day; If the republican leaders are right
then Lincoln was wrong and Jefferson
was wrong and Hamilton was wrong
and Washington was wrong"

QulgIey Pe0pZe's Choice
 For Mayor 0f the Cify
Defeats Peton By 1,575 Running Almost As Strong As in 1914-Republicans Carry Fifth
 Ward Again.

Yesterdays city election besides Demonstrating the continued popular lty of Mayor George A. Quigley who was reelected by plurality of 1,575 over Ernest w. Pelton, his democratic opponent, proves that the city is more strongly republican than ever. This Is shown in face of the fact that the vote on the mayoralty was 659 lighter than two years ago. The republicans not only maintained their ma ajorities in the four lower wards but made ma- terial gains in the fifth and sixth.
 Again Capture Fifth.
 In the fifth the republicans made fTther inroads and pulled out victor i0us for the second time Both coun- cilmen were elected by the republicans in the fifth and Mayor Quigley ran fif- ty-f1ve better than in 1914. Tn fact the fifth was the only ward in the city to give the mayor a bigger vote than in 1914. Althought ne ran ahead of his ticket in the sixth, Mayor Quigley fell short tWenty-six votes of his fig ures two years ago. But on the other sand the light vote hurt the democrats quite as much, as MT. Pelton exceeded MT. Halloran's figures of two years ago in only two wards. He gained one vote on MT. Halloran in the second and gained forty-seyen in the third, his own ward and the home of the an d-Quigley forces.
 Paonessa Alderman.
 The only solace to the democrats in yesterdays election was the victory in ttae sixth ward. Angelo M. Paonessa was elected alderman and George NJ. Landers and William J. Lenehan coun- eilmen. The other five wards return ten republican councilmen and two republican aldermen. In their sole re-
