President of the United States, by tie
Will and power of Senator Lodge, the
leader of the Republican party.

effect of it. Senator Moses, Republi-
car spokesman, admitted the stack
ing" but tried to justify the act by
explaining that what ne intended to
say was that it was 'stacked' with
Republicans. To which Senator Vii
liams replied: 1.-THE Senator may NOT
camOuflage things. He knows as we'll
as l do that the motion Of the Senator
from Pennsylvania (Mr. Knox is
not merely the motion of the criminal
lawyer, with a client aHCuI to harg,

and the League CT Nations, and that
is all that is behind it. You are try

That is a serious tharg.! against the
Republican leaders. No graTer &C.
cusation has ever before been brought
against them. Hn1 the sericIs part /
of the whole business is that the
charge has apparently been sustain

1852, 800 soldiers of all countries; the
money cost was between SIS5, 900 =
900, 900 and $195, OOO, 900. 900. in ship
ping, the toll was 33,O05, 1888 tons of
merchant vessels and l,SS2,125 IONS Of
war vessels. These figures were COM
piled by the War Department at the
request of Senator McCumber, Repub-
lican of North Dakota, and were made
public by him as the most telling rea-
son why there should be a League OF
Nations.
That President Wilson is not being
.swerved from his original position by
the %onsloughts of partisan Republf- !
cans was to have been expected. The
Foreign Relations Committee does not
constitute the Senate of the United
States, nor does it represent the sent:-
ment of the people of the country.
The President knows this and will
continue to contend for 4 square
deal.

it is desirable to transfer drainage
water across the road, and they should
usually be provided with end or wing
walls for protecting the slopes of the
embankment. When the material
composing the roadbed is likely to be
springy, a system of longitudinal un-

to secure proper drainage. In con
structing a road, of any type what
ever, it should be constantly borne
in mind that adequate and continu-

tina agents Of the Russian Workers
union have held meetings in the fol-
Akron. Chicago. Seattle and san
Francisco. The agitation has been
chiefly among the Slav races, but
Scandinavtans and the representatives
of other European races in this u
try have been subjects Of the under
ground campaign. The main instru-
ment of the propaganda is literature
which calls for the overturn OF gov
eminent by violence, asserting that
there is no moral o In
piishing revolution by bloodshed.
The literature is distributed at the
meetings and handed individually at
other places to those who II II
thought are ready TO give hearing TO
the measures advocated. All the 1T
erature thus far got hold of Is printed
in Russian. From the traces Of their
activity 1t liz estimated that there are
not less than 500 propaEandists OF
