Of State Lansing told him
in Paris if the people under
stood the treaty they would
defeat it.
The statement was called
to Mr.. Lansing's attention
and he refused to affirm or
deny. He merely said: Il
have nothing to say, one
way or the other. : This, Of
course, was admission that
Bullett had quoted him cor
rectly. Although a member
of the presidents cabinet
and one Of the American COM
mission to the Paris confer
ence, Secretary Lansing fail
ed to endorse the treaty
when he was before the sem
ate committee on foreign
relations. He merely told
things as he knew, and when
asked regarding other mat
ters he checked them all up
to the president.
Mr.. Bullet said none Of
the other members of the
commission were enthusias-
tic for the presidents pro-
gram at Paris or for the
treaty as. it W a S finally
adopted. When Col. House
was asked in London, re-
Gently, if he had broken
with the president, he, like
Mr.. Lansing, refused to talk.
Henry w. White has refused
to say whether he is for or
against the treaty.
So, it is pretty safe to
conclude that the president
alone, of the commissioners
who went to Paris, endorses
the treaty as it stands. 1t
is his fight against the SEN
ate's purpose to make res
ervations guaranteeing
American interests an d
rights. Albuquerque Morn

THE PRESIDENTS FIGHT

the Pac1t1c coast on MS Jour
to arouse public sentiment
in b e h a If Of t he
ratification of the treaty
without reservations. H e
has met with large audien-
ces everywhere. His speech
es have been models of ora
torical finish, of striking cpl
gram, Of poetic eloquence.
Whethephe has made con-
verts to the cause he advo-
Gates the ratification of the
treaty without the dotting
of and i or the crossing OF q
remains to be seen. That
his tour has not been with
out influence we may readl-
ly assume. He is too great
an evangelist not to make
some converts.
But. that he has not swept
the country off its feet is
evidenced by the tremend-
Gus crowds which gather to
hear Johnson a n d Borah
make speeches for reserva-
tions in the treaty. The
arguments Of these two SEN
ators are heard by as many
people as heard the presi-
dent and the enthusiasm of
their hearers is greater.
But in estimating the SEN
timent Of the country, as
shown by the crowds and
the shouting, we must con-
slider the fact that Woodrow
Wilson, as president of the
United States, would draw
a big crowd of people to see
and hear him at any time,
speaking on any subject, or
on no subject. The same
has always been true of ev-
cry man occupying the presi-
dency when touring t h e
country. 1t was true of
Andrew Johnson, who start
ed the "swinging-around-the
circle" by presidents as a
means Of appealing directly
to the people. It was true
of Benjamin Harrison, Nc
Kinley, Roosevelt and Taft,
each Of whom while presi-
dent made extensive tours
of the country.
On the other hand, we
may safely say that nowhere
would large audiences greet
johnson or Borah but for
the interest in the subject
of their speeches. Johnson
could not be a very popular
figure personally in either
st. Louis or Kansas City, to
say nothing of Chicago. But
everywhere he has spoken
in the same halls where the
president had spoken and
everywhere the halls not
only were packed to capaci-
ty but thousands could not
gain admission. There were
periods of sixteen and eight
cen minutes of cheering.
So, if we may judge by
the popular demonstrations
the president has not made
very great headway in arous-
ing sentiment for his cause.
But, on the other hand,
one very powerful factor. has
come into t h e campaign
against the treaty, that is
certain to have vast infu-
ence. Mr.. Bullett, one of
the very able journalists Of
the country, testified before
the senate committee on for
eign relations that Secretary

Let us plant trees as memorials to
our fallen heroes. Let us plant trees
not only along the great transconti-
mental highways, as the American
Forestry association so OPPORTUNITY
suggests, but let each community
plant trees for its own dead in addi-
ton.
In Mohammedan countries 1t is re-
garded as an act peculiarly pleasing to.
God and man to erect drinking places
as memorials for the dead. These
fountains, with their supply Of water.
In arid lands, help greatly to beauufy
roads, to tighten the burden Of life
and refresh bodies and souls, while
they testify in memorials Of stone,
brick and marble to beloved dead.
Let US plant trees as memorials to
our own beloved dead, whose deeds
shall live so long as the world lives.

ADVANTAGES OF FARM MULE
Will Take Better Care Of Himself
Than Horse-AIso Less Subject
to Digestive Disorders.

The mule has certain decided ad.
vantages as a work animal. For the
man who does not know how or is un.
willing to give his horses a reason
able amount of care, the mule is the
better animal, because he will take
better care Of himself than will the
horse.
The mule is naturally more able to
stand hot weather than is the horse,
He will slow down when the work be'
comes hard anG the weather hot
whereas a horse will begin to fret
and thus will be even more likely to
beccme overheated. Hence, a mule is
safer IN the hands Of a careless or in
competent driver.
The mule requires less grain and
will readily consume more roughage
than will workhorse doing the same
amount of work. The mule is less
subject to digestive disorders.
Another important consideration is
that a mule does not depreciate in
value so much from age and hard
usage as does horse.

Ornamental Lamp Posts.

There is no feature In municipal
equipment that adds more to the at
Effectiveness Of a city's appearance
than do ornamental street lamp posts
of artistic and appropriate design. Just
as the effectiveness Of interior decora-
lions and furnishings depend in a
large measure upon lighting fixtures,
so the beauty Of the street can be en-
HANGED or marred by Its lights. In
each case a satisfactory solution of
the lighting problem consists not only
in supplying sufficient illumination but
also in providing lighting equipment
that harmonizes with its surround
ings and possesses beauty of its
own. The old-time lamp post in
vogue before the days of electricity
fulfilled the second of these condi-
tons, but not the first; for, although
the post itself was often a work of
art, its feeble Oil or gas flame seldom
was equal to the task Of Illuminating
the street. On the other hand, the
modern overhead arc lamp gives fair
ly satisfactory light, but the unsightly
poles, ropes, wires and Others equip'
ment for raising and lowering the lamp
can scarcely be called beautiful. Now
comes the ornamental street lamp post,
which combines the beauty of one OF
its predecessors and the utility Of the
Other.-Thomas J. Davis In The House

SHAFTTO
AMERICAN MEN

Washington.-Th first three Amer
lean soldiers to die in battle on French
soil fell in the village of Bethelmont,
about twelve miles east Of Nancy. The
population of this region decided to
erect monument commemorating
their sacrifice, and a replica Of this
proposed monument was ,sent to Pres
ident Wilson by Ambassador Sharp
at Paris a few months ago at the re-
quest of those in charge of the prof
ect. Originally it was the intention
to hold the ceremony Of dedication in
the very village of Bethelmont, where
the three young heroes had given their
lives for freedom, but the community
was situated so near the firing line
that the ceremony had to be held at
Nancy. Ambassador Sharp has sent
to the state department a graphic re-
port on the subject A large crowd
Of distinguished people we're present
at the dedication exercises.
NJ. Mlrman, in his address before a
huge assembly at Nancy, emphasized
the fact that the three young heroes
in whose honor the monument had
been erected were not, indeed, the
first Americans whose blood had
tinged the battlefelds Of France.
Young men from the United States,
impatient to fight, had enrolled volun-
tarily in the French and English ar,
mics and already in 1916 their num-
Der exceeded 10000.
Carried American Flag.
A very touching incident illustrates
the patriotism of those Americans who
had Joined the French Foreign Legion
before the United States entered the
war. Not being able to fight openly
under the Star-SpangIed Banner they
procured an American flag and decided
that each of them, in turn, should car
ry it wrapped around his breast. In
this way our flag was present in all
