REGRETTABLE.

+. With the ending of the Sixty
fourth Congress and the failure
OF the passage of the President s
armed neutrality measure in the
Senate as the result Of the fill.
buster by eleven Senators and en-
gineered by La Toilette, a wave
of intense indignation swept the
country that members of the Sen
ate should at this critical stage
fail to uphold the president in a
policy which the people of the ma
ton almost unanimously hold to
be the only attitude which may
with honor be taken against ma
ton which has virtually declared
war against the neutral shipping
Of the world.
The effect Of the unhappy end
ing ofthe measure can hardly be
anticipated, but it can hardly fail
to put the country in a false light
in the eyes Of it's enemies; that of
being divided nation, and it can
not fail to greatly inflame the
minds Of the public, two most
regrettablc results in this great
crisis when the peace of the ma
ton depends upon it's unity and
the cool hcadedncss of it's people.
The President to maintain the
peace our people so earnestly de-
sire, must have the confidence of +
the nation and the whole world
must know that he has it.
He will not betray that conf

THE PRESIDENTS ADDRESS

The inaugural address of Pres
ident Wilson will not only com
pare favorahlv with the most i'm
portant OF the state papers which
he has contributed to the execu-
tive archives during his four
years in office, but undoubtedly
will be regarded as one of the best
exposltions he has given of Amer
lean ideals and purposes in con-
nection with the great struggle
now going Oh across the ocean.
Mr.. Wilson has usually been fe-
licitous in eXprcsSion---lnorc so, it
will be admitted by many who
conrcde his good intentions. than
i'll the methods he has employed in
giving force and effect to his
opinions. As an Interpretation of
genuine Amcricanism, for in
stance, nothing could he more
concise or high minded than the
president $ statement of the
things fer which America will
stand, whether in peace or war,
and it is none the less significant
because he has quoted so freely
from the Declaration Of hide
ncndencp. s. -
1t is inconccivablc that all pa
triOtir Americans should not
unite upon such Il comprehensive
platform or that any man, hold
ing position which purports to
be representative of American
opinion, should hesitate to uphold
such Amcricanism as that. 1t is
not only incredible but distinctly
humiliating that there should be
so many opportunists who, OH the
floor of the senate of the United
States, could deliberately counsel
the foregoing Of American rights
as the alternative to their vigor-
GUS assertion: and it is grossly un-
American that at this great crisis
IN the nation affairs the specta-
Gle should be presented of a gov
eminent, apparently divided
against itself, apparently hesitat-
ing to demand rcparation for in
tolerable wrongs and apparently
unwilling to assert incontrovert-
ible rights, inalienable and inner
ent in any sane conception of ma
tional honor.-kansas City Jour.

A WIDE GERMAN BOMB
PLOT
Destruction of Munition Plants in
U. S. Apparent Aim.

Hoboken, N. j. March s.
With the arrest here today of
Fritz Kolb, German, the author
tiles expressed the belief that they
had frustrated a. well developed
plot to aid Germany by blowing
up munitions plants in this coun-
try engaged in turning out con-
tracts for the Entente Allies. The
police said they found in Kolb's
room two bombs, which, accord
ing to rumors, were to be sent to
President Wilson.
After preliminary investiga-
ton however, they announced a
conviction that the plans of the
alleged plotters had to do entirely
with destroying war supplies, and
no attack on the Presidents life
was contemplated.
The police also said they had
information which might help in
solving the Black Tom, N. J., ex-
plosion and the destruction Of the
.kingsland, N. j., plant of the
Canadian Car and Foundry Com
pany, in which large munitions
supplies for the Entente Allies
were blown up.
Four other men were ques-
toned by the authorities tonight:
Chief of Police Hayes of this city
said they were friends of Kolb,
but that he was convinced they
knew nothing of the alleged plot.
"Wc are following leads which
may result in additional arrests at
any time" Chief Hayes declared.
we are cooperating with the
New York police and the neutrali-
~ squad Of the collector of the
port of New York. All of us have
,cen working on this for several
yeeks.'
Kolb denied any connection
With making the bombs, but said,
