THE SENATE BREAKDOWN.

When Senator Lodge, the majority leader of
the United States senate, introduced with the
recommendation of his committee on foreign re-
lations joint resolution of the two houses that
requires the assent of the president, declaring
that peace exists between this country and Ger
many, he did a thing for which there is no pre-
cedent in the history of the republic and he also
made confession that the senate has broken
down in its constitutional duties and is unable
to function. For the constitution clearly places
in the president and the senate the duty of max
ing peace, as it places in the house and senate
the duty and responsibility of making war. The
president performed his part of work in making
peace. He negotiated treaty Of peace as the
constitution says he should do, and he laid it
before the senate for ratification or rejection
as the constitution says he should do. After
debating the question of ratification for months
the senate voted down a motion to reject the
treaty, and also another motion to accept the
treaty, and then laid it aside without further
action. 1t confesses that it is unable to perform
it's constitutional functions in accepting or re-
jecting the treaty, and it asks the lower house of
congress and the president to come to it's rescue
by adopting new way of bringing about peace,
not contemplated by the constitution, and never
before suggested in the history of the republic
In effect it confesses that it is unable to function
as the constitution provides and it is helpless
without some outside aid to make peace.
Of course, the reason for this rather startling
breakdown in the senate and inability to func-
tion as required by the constitution lies in the
provision Of the constitution requiring two
thirds majority vote in that body to confirm any
treaty. The senate could not muster a two

. A BAD CREW.

- A BAD CREW.
The United States transport Buford is out in
the Atlantic ocean now with load of anarchists
gathered from nearly every state in the Union
and headed for Russia, from whence they came.
Their pockets are stuffed with good American
money, for these missionaries Of violence and
crime appear to have been capitalists themselves
while denouncing capital and they had more
than quarter of million dollars among them.
Emma Goldman and her companion, Berkman
are particularly well supplied with capital, we
are informed. They made the denunciation Of
capital pay them well in cash in these last 80
years. As the ship swung past the Statue of
Liberty in the harbor the ships passengers
Joined in loud curses on America, but they did
not relish leaving this cursed land where they
found fools in plenty to part with their money
in exchange for poisoned words. Mr.. Berkman
is quoted as saying that he would come back
as Ambassador to the United States from Rus
sia, and that he was going to help Lenine to
rule the Russian people. Well, perhaps he may
do the latter, but we will bet quantity of his
American gold that he will not make good the
first part of his boast.
It is somewhat cheering to know that at least
beginning has been made in getting rid Of these
obnoxious aliens. It is said another ship will
leave in few weeks with another consignment,
and that the government has list Of 10000
aliens in this country who are under suspicion.
We hope that the whole 10000 may be deported.
If an alien cannot so conduct himself while en-
joying the hospitality Of this country that he is
free from the suspicion Of being engaged in
conspiracy to overthrow the government which
received him, the sooner he'is sent back to the
country from which he came, the better.
Congress has now under consideration law
making membership in organizations which
preach force and resistance to law crime 1t
ought to be passed promptly. Under its provi-
sions we might be able to punish our own citi-
zens and deport aliens who conspire against the
peace and safety of the nation, more effectively.
There has been considerable criticism of the la
Dor department for being too lenient to these
anarchists and advocates of force in this coun-
try We have suspicion that there is some me-
rit in these criticisms. But the labor depart
ment officials have always claimed that they
were handicapped by lack of law in handling
this problem Congress should see to it that no
such excuse is available in the future. Give the
administration all the powers needed in drastic
laws to stamp out this nuisance and then insist
that the laws be carried out to the letter without
fear or favor. We have dallied with treason and
lawlessness too long already. The temper Of the
public is such that it will support radical rene
dies for radical agitators. Let congress provide
the medicine and the administration dish it out
in liberal doses till the country is cleared of the
contagion.

OF the word. a return TO anything

impossible The Russian people
would not stand that We shall, no
doubt, have a hard struggle to over
come the reactionary influences
which, Of course. still exist. but I.
personally. have no doubt whatever
that We shall succeed. From my
conversation with Kolchak. Denikin,
and Judenitch. all Of whom ] know
well, / am convinced that no ia
vor for reactionary ideas is 20 be
feared from them. At the outset
they were all merely honest
straightforward soldiers. who loved
their country, and knew little OF po-
litics. Since that time they have
learnt a good deal about politics,
and having begun with proposes
siOns, they have formed sound ideas
on the subject. Believe me, II would
be a great mistake TO suppose that
any one Of them is contemplating
the restoration Of the old regime.
They realize that, whether a mon
archy or a republic, Russia must, in
future, be governed with view to
the welfare and happiness Of the
great masses Of the people. and not
In the interests Of classes or CO.
teries, as in the past
AgrarIan Problem.
Undoubtedly. the most important
matter which presses for prompt
settlement is the agrarian question.
Here, I am among those who hold
that the land must belong to the
peasants. 1t would be futile to at
tempt 10 take back from them the
large estates which they have divid-
ed among themselves. The utmost
that can be done is 10 induce them
to pay something like reasonable
compensation 70 the former owners.
Neither in quantity nor kind, how
ever. should the compensation be
such as TO press heavily on the
peasants. Under all circumstances
they must be left substantially bet
ter off economically than they were
before the revolution. If this is
done. and If their title TO their new
holdings is regularized by the issue
to them of deeds, I believe that the
question of compensation will pres
ent no insuperable difficulties.
The splitting up Of the large es-
tates will mean considerable detri-
ment 10 the economic position of the
country as a whole. but the politi-
cal benefits VIII much more than
counter balance that. One exception
however, I should make to the di-
vision of land among the peasants
That would be in the case Of GER
tain Of the large estates which have
been especially organized for the pro-
duction OF sugar. Here I should re-
tain a compact mass Of sufficient
size TO guarantee efficiency of work
ing and a maximum OF production.

Question OF Border states.

Finally there is the vexed Ques-
ton Of the border states. In the
case OF only two Of these can there
be any question Of complete indie
