The Covenant of the League of
Nations still holds the centre OF the
stage at Washington; the letters of
Ex-President Taft to Mr.. Hays, chair
man of the National Republican Com
mittee, having created great SEN
sation, and stirred up the political
gossips. These letters seem to have
been misunderstood. They We're, OF
course, an attempt ON the part Of the
Ex-President to adjust the differen-
ces between the Republicans in the
Senate and the President, but did
not in any way suggest that the Ex-
President had changed his personal
position in the matter. On the con-
trary, they specifically state that Mr..
Taft himself believes in the ratihca-
ton by the Senate of the Peace Trea-
ty containing the Covenant for the
League of Nations without reserva-
tions, amendments, or even interpre-
tations; but in order to meet the
situation practically he recommends
what he calls interpretive resolu-
tions,' five in number. Suthclent
stress does not seem to have been
laid upon the form he recommends.
Interpretive resolutions, as dis
tinguished from amendments and
reservations, would not require the
Treaty of Peace to be re-submitted
to the other parties thereto. The
whole question resolves itself large
ly into question of form. II the
suggestions of the Senate are put in
the form of reservations or amend
ments, which are required to be
made part of the instrument OF
ratification, then they will require
the formal assent of the other par
ties to the Treaty, but put into the
form of interpretive resolutions
merely expressing the position taken
by the United States, but not requir-
ed to be incorporated in the instru-
ment of ratification, the President
can execute the instrument OF rat1h-
cation of the Treaty as it stands and
no other party thereto will have the
opportunity to suggest counter reser-
vations or to object to the position
taken by the United States.
The letters were not evidently in
tended for publication, but neverthe-
less they cannot be construed in any
way to change the attitude of Mt.
Taft or of the League TO Enforce
Peace regarding the absolute neces
sity of approving the Covedant
the League as il stands.

Announcement
To the Republican Voters

of Dorchester County:
l have filed with the Supervisors
of Election for Dorchester county my
certificate of candidacy for the Re-
publican nomination for State Sena-
tor for Dorchester county.
> I believe am entitled to this re-
ward for the services have render
ed to the Republican party. and be-
Iieve if nominated and elected,
could fill the office of State Senator
with credit to Dorchester Republi-
cans and to Dorchester county.
l believe Dorchester Republicans
generally will concede that no other
Republican in the county, during the
past fifteen years, has done more
for the Republican party than I have
done, and 1 have done it as a matter
of principle, to aid my party and its
candidates. Year after year / have
neglected my profession and busi-
ness to manase campaigns for my
party, to arrange meetings in the
interest of its candidates, to make
to write advertisements and news
notices in their behalf, to be pub
lished in the papers. l edited and
managed for years the Dorchester
Standard, in the interests of the
Republican party for Dorchester
county. Since I quit, the party has
no paper.
IL was mainly tllroslg the work !
did through the Dorchester Stand
ard that the Republicans of this
county won control of the Dorches-
ter County Commissioners Office IN
1907.
No man in Maryland did more
than 1 to stop the use of fake tick
cts and trick ballots in Maryland,
and it was largely through my ef-
forts that the Wilson Ballot Law
was repealed.
AS a citizen of Cambridge and
Dorchester county, have given time,
work, and money, whenever there
was an opportunity to do sopltehing
to benefit Cambridge and Dorches-
ter county, and if were in the State
Senate I would lose no opportunity
to do the best 1 could for my town
and county.
Other Republicans, and not 1, have
benefited by the work I have done
for the Republican party. If you
think am not entitled to this nomi-
nation, nor capable of filling the Of
fee with credit to my party and
county, I do not want the nomina-
ton. If you think I am capable of
filing the Office and entitled to the
nomination, I want and would ap-
preciate your assistance.

BEAR HUNTING

Among the sports Of India is the
capturing Of bears, and to this end
curious means are sometimes de-
vised. For example, four or five
sturdy men are armed, two with
long spears cross-barred on the
handles close 10 the sharp two
edged blade, and two or three
with l0-foot bamboos, Of which the
ends are smeared with bird lime.

THE ENGINEERING ANTS.

The following remarkable story
of how a number of ants built a
bridge is related on good author
ity, and is entitled to a place
among the instances Of intelli-
gence among the lower animals.
A cook was much annoyed to
find his pastry shelves attacked by
ants. BY careful watching it was
discovered that they came out
twice a day in search Of food at
about seven in the morning and
four in the afternoon.
How were the pies to be pro-
tected against the invadersY He
hit upon a happy idea. Taking the
molasses jug, he made a circle Of
syrup about the pies and sat down
to wait. IL did not take long, for
at s so o'clock he noticed that off
in the left-hand corner of the pan
try was a line of ants slowly max
ing their way in the direction of
the pies.
They seemed like vast army
coming forth TO attack the enemy.
In front was a leader, larger than
any Of the others. and which al
ways kept a little ahead of his
troops.
They were Of the sort known as
the medium-sized red ant, which is
regarded as the most intelligent OF
It's kind, the scientific name of /
which is Firmica rubra.
About forty ants out of 500
stepped out and joined the leader.

council, and then proceeded TO ex-
anime the circle of molasses.

be assigned 10 the different ants.
