EXPECTTO AMEND TREATY;
POSSIBILITIES NUMEROUS

of new treaty; send new delega-
ton to reopen negotiations, or pocket
the treaty and refuse to proceed
further unless the senate receded
from its position.
Colombian Treaty as Precedent.
1t is known that the alternative of
an exchange of diplomatic notes with
the principal powers has been sug-
gested to the president as the most
feasible by republican senators who
have told him that the treaty would
never be ratified as it stands. The as
sent of the smaller nations, these SEN
ators asserted, would be obtained
easily once the other members of the
five principle powers have acquiesced.
1t is pointed out that the question of
reservation to the Colombian treaty
now is under negotiation by that
method.
The possibility of Mr.. Wilson's re-
turn to Paris to straighten out the
points raised by any senate qualiti-
| cations is one which some senators
say would be entirely in line with his
course thus far in the peace settle
ment.
That the president might permit
the negotiations to stand in a dead
lock by declining to take up with 9TH
err governments any changes suggest
ed by the senate involves perhaps the
most interesting possibilities of all.
In that connection many prece-
dents have been cited, including one
as late as President Taft's admins
tration when Mr.. Taft, dissatisfied
with the senate's amendment of a
treaty he had presented for ratifica-
ton, washed his hands of the nego-
tiations and let the treaty die.
Senate Would Declare Peace.
Should President Wilson adopt that
course and then appeal to the coun-
try republican senators say the senate
would adopt a resolution declaring
the war at an end and proceed to en-
act such legislation as seemed neces-
sary to restore a complete peace
| basis. Whether such resolution
would require the presidents sigma
ture is a disputed question, however,
and Mr.. Wilson is known to object
strongly to any such method of end
ing the war.
The problem of the presidents
course also involves a question of
how great an influence he will ex-
ercise while the treaty still is before
the senate to prevent reservations
from being incorporated in the ratl-
fication. Although the republican
reservationists say they have assur-
ances that their program will be ac-
ceptable to most of the senate demo-
Gratis there has been no evidence
that Mr.. Wilson has given his assent
to any such a compromise.

HIGHWAY COMMITTEE

GOING OVER PROPOSED ROUTES
FOR FLORIDA SHORT LINE. TO
MAKE RECOMMENDATION.

and Reuben Kyle of Columbus, Jas.
w. Harris of Cuthbert. Jno. N. Watts
and Frank Sears of Shellman, E. X.
Kalmon and R. J. Edgerly of Albany.
The committee which was appoint
ed to go over the two trails in Geor-
gia and select route for the Flori-
da Short Line highway began their
tour in Columbus yesterday, and
reached Dawson this morning. They
will go from here to Albany and
thence to Florida. This committee
is composed of John B. McCollum
They were met at Parrot by a
committee from the Chamber of
Commerce, and escorted to Dawson
and entertained at luncheon at the
Dawson Inn.
Two contending routes between
Columbus and Albany are being in
spected. One of these goes by Bue-
ma Vista, Ellaville, Americas and
Leesburg, and the other by Cusseta,
Richland, Weston, PARROT, Dawson
and Sasser. The latter route, straight
down the Seaboard Air Line railroad,
is much shorter than the former and
its advocates have strongly urged it's
claims as the logical way.

BLINDNESS And DEATH
in BOOTLEGINC BOOZE
HERE'S A TIP TO "MILD DRINK
ERS" OF THE GEORGIA MOON
SINNERS PRODUCT.

Here is a tip for the benefit of
those few individuals who continue
to indulge their thirst in spite of the
bone dry era lately ushered into the
nation as well as the state. Of course
it is not likely that the suggestions
contained in the tip will be of inter
est to more than a small minority, a
mere handful, so to speak, but we
give it here for what it may be worth.
The tip is this-that denatured al
cohol is being camoufaged to make
it look and smell like whisky and is
being sold to innocent victims by
bootleggers;
Further-that denatured alcohol
first produces blindness, then pro-
duces death;
Further-that potash is being used
extensively, not to say universally,
by manufacturers of moonshine whis-
ky, and this will likewise, if consum-
ed in sufficient quantities, produce
first blindness and then death.
Federal revenue officers in charge
of the whisky laws in Georgia are
authority for the statement that de-
natured alcohol is being peddled out
in the guise of whisky, and that peo-
pie are buying it with no suspicion
of its deadly poison.
They Use IL.
AS to the potash, it does not take
the testimony of revenue officers to
confirm the fact that moonshiners
use it. The matter was dismissed
privately and personally with much
concern by members of the Georgia
legislature at the recent session.
State Senator j. j. Flynt, who halls
from the good old county of Spald-
ing, seriously advocated the passage
of law to make it capital felony,
punishable by death or life imprison-
ment. for any manufacturer of whis-
ky to use potash in the process. In
this connection he spoke of the fact
that revenue officers and sheriffs in
raiding distilleries nearly always find
the ground Uttered with empty pot
ash cans.

President Could Renegotiate
or Let Matter Stand Dead
locked. Senate Could Then
Declare State of Peace.

WASHINGTON, D. Glow far
President Wilson may go in his fight
for unqualified senate acceptance of
the peace treaty is a subject of in
creasing speculation in official and
diplomatic circles.
With the group of reservation re-
publicans apparently determined to
write their qualifications of the
league of nations covenant in to the
ratification itself, and with republi-
can leaders predicting that the SEN
ate will amend outright the Shan
tung provision and perhaps other
sections of the treaty, an interesting
set of possibilities present themselves.
There has been no authoritative
expression of the presidents proba-
BILE course should the treaty be re-
turned to him with textual amend
ments or reservations written into
the ratification.
Several Courses Are Open.
Should such amendments or reser-
vations be inserted, therefore-an
eventuality which democratic senate
leaders deny is likely but which the
republicans say is certain-the next
move would be up to the president.
What he would do is question on
which those who have talked with
him disagree; but a discussion of
what he would be authorized to do
under the law and presidents reveals
a general agreement that several
course would be open.
Summed up, these discussions con-
template that he might take up the
question of changes in the treaty of
diplomatic correspondence; return to
Paris and ask that the peace confer
ence be reassembled for negotiation

BOND ISSUES CARRIED
ALMOST UNANIMOUSLY
NO OPPOSITION
EITHER TO PAVING OR Elk
TENSION OF WATER WORKS.

The city election Friday resulted
in an overwhelming victory for both
of the bond proposals-$3O,0O0 for
paving Main and Lee streets in the
business section of the city, and
$4,000 for improving and extending
the water works system. In fact,
there was practically no opposition
to either of these Improvements.
Out of total registration of 1852
votes, for paving 256 votes were
cast and only 6 against.
There was only one voter who went
to the polls and expressed himself as
against the water works bonds, while
the number who voted for these
bonds was 262.
The next step now will be the vail
dation of the bonds before Judge
Worrill, which will be done without
unnecessary delay. The bonds will
then be advertised and sold.
Bonds for these improvements
were authorized by the voters last
spring, but on account of a clerical
error it was necessary to have anoth-
e. election.
