Defeated in his attempt to have the
peace treaty and league of nations
adopted without alterations or reser-
vaiions, defeated again in his attempt
20 effect a compromise when he
found that reservations were newt
able, President Wilson gave orders to
his rubber stamp Senators, and the
peace treaty has been laid away, for
this term of Congress at least, by the
votes of its friends. 1t will doubt
less be re-submitted in December, but
unless there is a decided change in
the attitude of the senators who
voted for the reservations safeguard
ing the interests of the United States
and holding this country aloof from
foreign entanglements, its chance of
ratification will be no better then.
French papers pretty generally look
upon the rough handling of the peace
treaty by the United States senate as
a breach of faith, but one Paris paper
has the vision to see that President
Wilson, arrogating to himself the
power of peace plenipotentiary, did
not correctly interpret the will of the
people of the United States, and was
making contracts beyond his power
to carry out.

Mt. Desert, Nov. %, 1919.
To Honorable Frederick Hale, Wash
ington, d. c.
My Dear SENATOR 1T is a long time
since l wrote you, but l have been
so anxious about this treaty ratifi-
cation that l have written nothing
but a few prescriptions, and even
they have been short and sweet. -
have always believed that ratifi-
cation was a very destructive pro-
cess, and evidence is continually
accommodating to strengthen that be-
lief
Only a few days ago l went into
my farmhouse to look after a barrel
of apples / had left there, and those
apples had been so badly ratified
that there was nothing left but a
mass of chips and chewings So
feel very sure that ratification is alike
bad for things great or small. 1t
is bad for the apple-barrel or the
meal-chest. And it is equally bad
for the peace of the family, or the
welfare of the country.
But / feel easier now, and hope
that we shall hear no more in its
favor. In some cases, if you give a
sharp-toothed rat a good chance, in
short time there will not be
enough rats left to ratify anything.
But other cases can be well managed
only by craftsmanship and diplomacy,
and hoping that the rats and ratifiers
may be less successful in the future
than in the past, l am,
Very truly yours,
r. L. GRINDLE
P. S.-France and England are
hereby notified that l have applied
for a copyright, and that any quo
tations from the above epistle with
out my permission will be consid-
cred an infraction on the Monroe
Doctrine. for which they will be
held strictly accountable
P. S. No. 2-No doubt the ratifi-
ers sincerely believe that the
League of Nations would at once
put an end to wars and rumors of
wars. But how can they expect the
League to do what Ford's managerie
failed to do? And with great re-
spect for the sincerity of the ratiii-
ers. l still believe that if our country
were to participate in this world
wide ratification, we would often in
the future find ourselves ratified, to
our lasting sorrow.
