Senate Surprise.

The United States Senate
was taken somewhat by sur.
prise on Monday when Senator
Borah, Republican of Idaho, a.
rose in his place and announced
that he had in his possession b
copy of the peace trenty. The
report that copies of the peace
treaty were in the possession of
Wall Street had stirred the SEN
ate up considerably aud Presi
dent Wilson had been asked for
a copy of the treaty by the sen
ate, His reply by wire was to
the effect that he could not,
without breaking faith, send a
copy to the senate, and this ca
blegram had just been read to
the senate when Senator Borah
produced his copy of the treaty
and asked to have it printed and
the resolution to print was g.
dcpted by vote of Al to "a but,
on a motion to reconsider the
vote, a parliamentary wrangle
arose. and Senator Boroh secur
ing the floor. began to read the
peace treaty to the senate.
When the opposition realized
that Senator Borah would force
them to either listen to the read
ing of the long peace treaty or
submit to the printing of the
all opposition was with
While this was evidently a
surprise to most of the senate,
it no doubt was a greater sur
prise to President Wilson to
learn that the senate had . copy

Reports received by the State
Cooperative Crop Reporting
Service indicate that fully 20
per cent of the apple crop in
Colorado was lost as a result of
the frost that visited practically
all sections of the state on the
nights of May 81, and June J..
while the loss of peaches and
smaller fruits wns equally
heavy and in some cases heavi-
err. Montrose and Delta coun.
ties apparently suffered more
than any other important com.
mercial fruit producing coun-
ties. The loss in Mesa county
was comparatively light aud
the same was true Of the lower
Arkansas valley. Fremont
county reports q considerapie
loss, but not SO heavy as in some
sections on the western slope.
In northern Colorado the loss
ranges all the way from less
per cent to fully 10 per cent,
but with an average perhnps be
low 20 per cent. Gardens and
truck crops suffered severely Ia
nearly nll sections Of the state,
but the extent OF the loss can
not yet be d .tinitely determined
Field beans were injured Ia
some districts. particularly ir
FL Pnso. Lincoln aud Elber,
counties. Comparatively little
cora -waA up nt the time Of th.
frost aud the damage TO ths'

A MISTAKE IN FIGURES

Eighty million dollars and one
hundred years was misleading
statement. Perhaps IL we had said
eighty million dollars to supply the
deepest needs of five hundred million
people for five years, the money brob-
lem would have disappeared. That
is about what the Methodist Cen
tenary means. The Baptist church.
the Presbyterian church, the Episco-
pal church-these are all making
similar drives in an endeavor to
properly man and equip the gospel
program for the world. The very
largeness of that task should appeal
to us right now. A big printing
firm in New York believed in this
program to the extent of $100,0DO:
