FRIDAY, JULY IS, 1919.
SHOULD VISIT THE PRESIDENT.

President Wilson mas stolen a march
on the opponents of the league of ma
tons in extending an invitation to all
Republican senators to meet him at the
White House to discuss the league. 1t
may be claimed he has passed the
bounds of executive propriety in inter
fcring with the legislative branch of
the government; he certainly has gone
further in this direction than any of
his predecessors, but he has in effect
challenged his opponents to meet him
and exchange views upon the issue be-
tween them Any senator refusing to
visit the president for a personal con
ference acknowledges a fear of the re-
suit
The honorable thing for Senators
Lodge, Borah and Johnson to do is to
meet the President upon his chosen
ground and get right down to brass
tacks regarding the league of nations
If the senator's position on this ques-
llbH - IcHdHlt tItN Will We dDit " HIdht
ii perfectly clear TO the President and
in so doing they will convince the pub
lie of the correctness of their views
If they cannot maintain their position
before the President they cannot before
the country. Their evasion of this
meeting indicates that they are losing
the battle.
The President shows wisdom in de-
Gliding to meet the opposition in Wash
ington rather than on the hustings. The
United States senate is the body that
will either defeat or ratify the treaty
and is the point on which his ener-
gies should be concentrated. The SEN
ators will not hear the acclaim that
would greet a President on a swing
around the country but they cannot es-
cape the force of his arguments face to
face. Therefore he has made proper
choice of a battle ground In extend
ing this invitation to the opposition the
President shows he has the courage to
meet his opponents on common ground
and place his facts against theirs. Those
who refuse to meet him as requested
simply add to his victory over them.

A Warning.
Barre Times.)

Drivers of automobiles, who on their
feeling of familiarity with their ma
chimes are accustomed to divert their at
tention momentarily from the wheel and
the road in order to do some little act,
will take due warning from the expe-
rience of the Springfield man who at
tempted to take off his coat while driv-
ing car, with the result that the ear
ran up bank and then overturned, in
juring the driver fatally and inf1icting
hurts upon other occupants of the We
hicle. Such acts as removing coats,
lighting cigars and the like cannot be
done safely by driver when the ear
is still moving. Better lose a little time
by hating the vehicle before attempting
them

Why Bother?

1t IS hard to understand all the FUN
ing and fuss over war time prohibition
and its abrogation in view of the fact
that In six months from now prohbi-
tion will be a fact under the constitu-
ton of the United States. Furthermore.
once part of the constitution, the pro-
hibition amendment will never be re-
pealed. 1t will stay there as long as
the republic lasts So why bother about
matter of six months when half
year is only drop in the ocean as com
pared with eternity,
