THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.

washington, ID. c., December T.
There was pretty noisy time about
Dolitical circles in Washington in the
few days just previous to the depart
ure Of the president, and the sounds
about the Tower of Babel were per
haps no less confusing than the clatter
of protest that arose in the capitol
when the president gave out the names
of the peace party, with his own name
at the head, and only blank spots
where the surnames of senator's and
big chiefs in the Republican party
might have been reasonably expected.
Then came another day when the
promised masterpiece" of Mr. Will
son, in his address to congress failed
to please, and the newspaper reports
that on former occasions recorded that
"all arose except Senator LOFollette
and cheered the ringing words Of the
president" now related how many
Democratic senators and nearly all the
Republican members of both houses
sat still and scowleG while a group Of
Democrats applauded."
Gee, but they were mad bunch /!
Senator Cummins introduced a resolu-
ton to send a committee of eight sena-
tors to France to observe and report
to the senate" Senator Sherman
'resolutedP to unseat the president
and to put Mr.. Marshall in his place ;
and Congressman Rodenberg put forth
a plan to take the office away from the
president while he was away, and then
give it back to'him when he returned
The whole thing was like a family
row-and you all know how mad you
have sometimes been towards Dad
but il he was going away on a long
journey you somehow forgot about
most of your Sights in not being invit.
ed to go too. And if you have had
such an experience you can quite easily
understand why it was that Washing
ton went to the train and cheered the
president and his party, and everybody
hoped the trip would be great sue
