ON BOARD PRESIDENT WILSON S
SPECIAL TRAIN. TACOMA. wash.
Sept. 13.-President Wilson has estab-
lished a new line of battle against those
who oppose confirmation of the treaty Of
Versailles. He threw down the erdgel
at Spokane in the very last words "a his
speech last night. II will be forced
prominently to the front during the
next few days. the men who are closest
to him declared today. Unless all signs
fail 1t bids fair TO overshadow many OF
the other issues in the joint long dis
tance debate between the President and
his senatorial opponents. remaining in
Washington. or trailing him toward the
setting sun.
The president has demanded that the
1920 national campaign be elinina' ed as
a topic of consideration until the .reaty
of Versailles is out of the way.
The president raised the issue last
night in the following words
Il beg of you. my Republican fellow
citizens. that you will not yourselves
for one moment. as I do not for one
minute. as God knows my conscience
think of 1920 when thinking about the
redemption of the world"
This brief appeal is to be the subject
or more or less Length sermon before
the presidents special train heads its To-
comotive towards the east. How far the
president will go along this line no one
can predict. His plans are known only
TO himself.
Suggestions that he might take posi-
tive position toward those who have
been advocating his candidacy for re-
nomination were met today with direct
quotation Of the presidents own state
rnent. Until the treaty is out of tho way
he will not even consider the coming
campaign. his advisers say
