Covenant as Some See It.

IT don't recognize this covenant
when hear some other men talking
about It. I spent hours and hours In
the presence of the representatives of
thirteen other nations examining
every Sentence OF It up and down and
c-ossw!se ac6 tried to keep out O. It
anything that !nte-terea with TIE es-
sent.al Sovereignty o. any member o.
the league.
"I carried over with ne IN March
all the suggestions made by the for
eign relations committee Of the Sem
ate and they were all accepted. Yet
come back and find that don't UNDER
stand what the document means and
am told that plain sentences which
thought were written in unmistakable
language mean something that I never
heard of, and that nobody else enter
tanned as purpose. But whatever
you may think of article x. my fellow
citizens. it is the heart of the treaty;
you either have got to take 1t or you
have got to throw the world back into
that old contest over land titles which
would upset the state of North Dakota
or any other part of the world.
Some of the very men who are now
opposing this peace covenant were
most eloquent in support of an inter
national government which would be
carried to the point where the exercise
of Independent sovereignty would be
almost stopped.

Sure of q. s. Joining.

There Is no more danger of the
American people staying out of this
great thing than there is of our re-
versing all the presidents of our his
tory. forgetting all the blood that has
been split, so much precious blood to
the state. But in the meantime the
delay is endangering the whole world
and ours. of course, along with the
rest, because we are, from the be-
ginning, in my opinion. instrumental
ly an important part of the world.
'sNow, article 10 has no operative
force in 1T unless we vote that it shall
operate. I will tell you what article
10 is. I think can repeat It almost
verbatim. Under article 10 every
member of the league undertakes to
respect and preserve the territorial in
tegrity-to protect and preserve
against external aggressions and sus-
tains the political independence OF the
other members of the league. So far
so good.

Care Of President.

After the night meetings, especially.
DR.. GraySon has been insistent that
the President should not use his voice
more than necessary or expose himself
while bidding goodbye to the crowds
at the railroad stations.
Perspiring after speaking in a
crowded auditorium, he is taken to his
car and given a rundown by his

of steaming hot, but weak coffee, tea
or beef tea.
It was decided today that the presi-
Dental special would not run into
Occur d'Alene, Idaho, where the
President speaks Friday, but would
stop at Rathdrum. Idaho, from which
point the Presidential party will
motor four miles to the Occur d'Alene
auditorium. After the address the re-
turn to the train at Rathdrum will be
made by motor.
Plans also were completed for the
review of the Pacific fleet at Seattle
on Saturday. Arriving early Gin the
afternoon the President will go
aboard the historic battleship Oregon
at o'clock. The Oregon, which will
be the reviewing ship, then will pro-
coed up Puget sound and take station
for the ceremony.
After the review the party will dine
at the Hippodrome, but the President
will make no address until he speaks
in the evening at the arena.

were the local officials to guard
against overcrowding and confusion
that once the President was inside
they locked the doors and refused to

! AS a result the chief Of police of
Bismarck, Edmund W. Startling, the
assistant chief Of the secret service
with the Presidents party. and the
chairman Of the local committee on
arrangements were among those alb
sent from the meeting. The commit

stage door. treated impartially all re-
quests that the door be opened. but
finally the police chief and MI star

Another result was that no news
paper dispatches were released from
the building until Mr.. Wilson had
completed his address.

Text Of Speech.

President Wilson spoke for some
time on food problems. He said:
MEN In despair do not construct
governments; men in despair destroy
governments. Men whose whole af-
fairs are SO upset, whose whole sys-
TENS Of living are so disrupted that
they cannot get food, that they cannot
get clothing, that they cannot turn to
any authority that can give them
anything certain, cannot construct
governments.
II believe that, with the exception
Of the United States, there is not a
country in the world that could live
without imports. There are only
one or two countries that can live
without importing foodstuffs; there
are no countries that I know of that
can live in their ordinary way with
out importing manufactured goods
and raw materials-raw materials of
many kinds. Take that great king
dom, for example. for which I have
he greatest admiration-the great
kingdom of Italy

Glad to Touch Hands

President at Mandan

ON BOARD PRESIDENT WILSON'S
SPECIAL TRAIN. September 10.-To
a crowd which surrounded his private
car today at Mandan. N. D.. President
Wilson declared a week Of travel in
the heart of the country had con-
WINGED him that the nation stands to-
gether for an international guarantee
of peace.

their hands and know, as 1 have come
to know, how the nation stands to-
plete what the boys did who carried
their guns with them over the sea.
Job Is Unfinished.
1--WE may think that they finished
that job, but they will tell you they
did not, that unless we see to it that
peace is made secure they will have
the job to do over again and we in
the meantime will rest under a con-
slant apprehension that we may have
to sacrifice the flower of our youth
again.
The whole country has made up
its mind that that shall not happen
and presently, after a reasonable time
is allowed for necessary debate, we

And it will be the proudest thing

now she is going to do them"
Call for Mrs. Wilson.
The speech was cheered by the
crowd, which included many Indians.
Then woman called out: where is
Mrs. Wilson," and the others took up
the cry persistently until the first
lady of the land appeared. There were
cheers for her and the President as
the train pulled out.
At a number of other short stops
during the day Mr.. Wilson came out
on the rear platform to shake hands,
but on the whole it was a day of rest
while his train sped westward.
The presidential special picked up a
second engine late today as it began
to climb into the Rockies on one of the
longest continuous pulls of its ten
thousand-mile journey.
The speech at Mandan was the Sec
ond the President has made from the

'The second sentence provides that
In case of necessity the council shall
