sciousness, the determination of

tIonS is not the part of wisdom.
TX. This country has been of some
value to. the world through the very
TACT OF her welcoming individuals of
many races to her free and liberal in
stItutons while keeping aloof from
ficts of constant racial adjustment and
lrcadjustment This country's voice has
had some influence for the reason alone
that 1t was not concerned in their con-
troversies. This has been known,
conceded and definite advantage to all
nations Already through our inter
meddling in what does not concern us
and as to much Of which we are in
competent to judge we have lost in
part the gain of $50 years. 1t is sought
to throw away substance and grasp

George Wharton Pepper, Of Phila-
delphia, director of the opposition to
the proposed league covenant, issued a
statement tonight, declaring that the
fight against the covenant is won and
that the treaty as it now stands will
not be ratified by the Senate.
Treaty Not To Be Ratified
The statement reads:
After canvassing the situation in
Washington and elsewhere ! am salts
fled that the treaty cannot be ratified
as it stands. Those wko accepted the
Presidents fourteen points arc dis
gusted because the treaty ignores every
one of them. Those who believe in a
square deal for weaker nations arc re-
sentful because the God given docu-
ment turns out to be only a cover for
an ungodly grab.
"Those who believe that our word
is as good as our bond are incensed
at Mr.. Wilson's immoral suggestion
that We may step out of our promise
when the time for performance has
arrived. There is. therefore, no chance
that he can persuade the Senate to
ratify first and make interpretations
later, for Senators perceive that this
amounts to locking the garage after
the motor has been stolen.
Suggests Utter Rejection
"The only open question now before
the country is whether radical amend
ments shall be made and drastic res
ervations inserted in the resolution Of
ratification or whether the whole treaty
shall be re jected-lock. stock and. bar
rel. The latter course would convert
the treaty into European settlement
would enable US to enjoy the peace
which we have won and would leave
us free to serve the world in great
emergencies by throwing our strength
and influence on the side OF justice
and the right"

Only Seven Bachelors Af-
fected By Jamison
No. Z Fire.

Fire of unknown origin burned
down frame building 80 feet by "a
feet at Mine No. Of the Jamison
Coal and Coke Company, near Bar
rackYille, on Friday evening at 2
O'Clock entailing loss Of approxi-
mately $4,000. There were eight apart
ments OF two rooms each, comprising
q sixteen room building, which was
used to house miners. At the time
the fire broke out there were seven
single men living in the rooms.
The fire started at a point where
rooms 101, 102 and 103 were located
and that much of the building was
enyeloped in flames before the fire
was discovered. Rev. W. D. Carter,
a. negro Methodist Episcopal clergy
men, occupied one of the rooms.
Due to an exaggeration Of the mag
nttude of the fire the Jamison office
today was the recipient Of offers Of
help for the homeless, both the local
Red Cross society and the Salvation
Army desiring to help. The truth Of
the matter is that the several men
affected can be easily taken care Of.
At no time did the flames endanger
adjoining property.
