inquiry into reports that there had
been opposition started in influential

PEACE OR WAR,
SAYS WILSON

On Board President Wilson's
Special Train, Sept. 10. - Presi-
dent Wilson was heading due
west to-day on one of the longest
legs of his countrywide speaking
tour for the Peace Treaty. Nearly
the whole day was given over to
travel, the only stop on his sched-
ule being a short one at Bis
marck, II. D.
The President told a Bismarck
audience that the issue involved
in his speechmaking tour for the
Treaty was "a question of war or
peace" There was only. one way
in which peace could be main
tained, he said. and that was by
such a concert of nations as was
proposed in the League of Ma
tions.

is that the prisoners do not get out
often enough for fresh air and will
send a letter to that effect" he con-
tinued. Mr.. Wolf added with a smile
"Dauphin's jail seems to be rather
empty these days compared to some
other DAYS.

Spencer Swings to
Senator Lodges Side

Washington, Sept. 10. - The
ranks of the Senate opponents of
the Versailles Treaty who advocate
drastic reservations were REIN
forced by Senator Spencer, Repub-
lican, of Missouri. one of the So
called mild reservationists" who. in
a spirited speech, declared that
rather than accep- the Treaty with
out change, as urged by President
Wilson, he would vote to reject it.
The rapid shift in the attitude of
the mild reservationists" within the
last few days was attributed by one
OF the Republican leaders to the ma
ture of the attacks made upon the
opponents of the Treaty by the
President.
