"Due for Rude Awakeaing."

HE assumes that when he speaks and
acts wisdom Is exhausted and further
effort useless He is due for rude
awakening. The people are willing to
concede that he is learned man, that
he 10 a wise man, that he is great man,
but they are beginning to resent the as
sumption that he knows everything past
present and future, that he is the sole
Interpreter of their will and that his
Judgments should be accepted by all
without question.
THE open attempt of the President to
coerce the Senate to act contrary to it's
patriotic judgment is fraught with great
danger to the Republic. 1t embodies the
spirit Of the mob and justifes lawless-
ness.
While speaking for democracy and
nrging that the world be made safe for
democracy he practiced an autocracy
that is hardly paralleled in the annals
OF history He named himself peace
commissioner and. contrary to all his
country's traditions, went to Europe TO
make peace. His associates were mere
dummies. They acted as he ordered.
His judgment was theirs whether they
approved it or not. They come back

SPEAKS IN LOS ANGELES
Uses Presidents Argument to
Show Article X. Nullifies
Constitution.

Los ANGELES, Cal, Oct. S.---Senator
Hiram w. johnson. fresh from a tn
umph in San Francisco, arrived in Los
Angeles tonight TO carry forward his
campaign against the ratification Of an
unaltered peace treaty and League Of
Nations covenant.
His reception at the railway station
and through the streets leading to the
hall in which he addressed a stupendous
and riotously enthusiastic gathering was
a noisy triumph. The applause which
punctuated his speech in large measure
dissipated the claim Of the Administra-
tion following in this section that Pres
ident Wilson had completely won his
way In the recent dash through.
Senator Johnson said in part:
THE President In all his speeches
across the continent and in those deliv-
cred at San Francisco vehemently as
serted that there was nothing in the
various provisions of the League of Ma
tons which In any way affected the
power of Congress over the military and
naval forces of the United States. In
deed In answer to questions propounded
to him with mock Bolemnity by his
propaganda organ in San Francisco, he
categorically stated that under no cir
cumstances could the forces of the United
States be employed without Affirmative
action by Congress. After he left Cali
fornia and at Salt Lake he made plain
what is the fact and what so often has
been asserted by opponents of the pres
ent covenant.
The Senate has been trying to safe
guard the nation and by reservation to
Article X. to make perfectly clear what
the President asserted while on his way
to California and in California. that only
| by Joint resolution or act of Congress
shall the armed forces Of this nation be
used The reservation proposed by the
Foreign Relations Committee had this
as It's principal end in view. The Presi-
dent not once but many times has We
| hemently asserted that the covenant
meant just this thing and nothing else
and therefore such n reservation was
wholly unnecessary.
| Bares Article X.
AT Salt Lake City. however. for the
| first time tho President disclosed moi
only the sinister design Of Article Y. but
his own Interpretation Of II. He there
read a form OF reservation as follows
The United States assumes no obligation

the direction are of such perfection
that they seem wholly blended in an in

The wedding has not been opposed by

Mr.. Dryden was in Bombay when he
was approached by Mr.. P. J. MARI

of his striking resemblance to the
Parsees, who are the highest TYNE of
Oricntals in India
The photographs were such a sue
cess that Mr.. MARKHAM decided to adapt
one of his Gujerati novels as a feature
photoplay. The necessary arrange

shipping restrictions it was impossible
to obtain any raw film stock. Had the
latter obstacle not arisen Mr.. Dryden
would have been the first person to

These valiant words were cordial TO

knowledge that somebody had had

somewhere in the third reel we sat
wrapped in a quite particular complai-

were about the most intelligent things

but this cannot be, 1t simply doesn't

hope to put over anything as good as
this - people wouldn't notice it - they
wouldn't be able to tell it from life!"

Bumper Crop of
 Whales Is Caught

Victoria, B. C., Nov. 21.-A bump CT season for whales has just been closed in Northern Pacific waters and according 10 sea captains the yield Of sulphur whales was unusually hlgh this fall.
 Seventy mamals was the leading catch of the season. The whaler St. Lawrence, commanded by Captain Arvenson, which worked out of the port of Kyuquot, claimed this record. Other crews brought in from forty to sixty whales.
 The season was featured principal ly by schools of small sperm whales which made their way up the coast. Many were caught off Oregon and or one day, eleven tiny ones were brought in An ordinary sperm whale is about 50 feet long. The average length of these fishes was 30 feet.
 Big sulphur whales were caught off Kyupuot. One was 86 feet long. Another measured fl feet in glrth and 162 barrels Of oil was obtained from the carcass.

Big Premium Is

 American Money

London, Nov. 21.-The condition of American exchange is causing anxiety Tn trade circles, as the prevailing rates mean that tremendous prem lum ha sto be paid by British buyers for goods purchased in the United States
 The rate this morning was called at s4-05, on an easier money market Tn New York, but opinion in Lom- bard street is that there is no back bone in the market, while the recent uneasiness caused by the constant declining tendency has been accen- tuated by the non-ratification of the peace treaty. The rate, according to opinion here, is likely to be un- stable until the treaty question ls settled and official action is taken re- garding the granting of credits.
 The lower exchange rate is also a contributory cause to the high prices realized for arrivals of s,rvcr, while on the other hand America, Spain and other countries, inview of the adverse exchange, are taking or- ferings of gold in the open market at 103 shillings per ounce, or 21 per cent over the mint prices.
