LAWMAKERS LEFT
On TRAIN TODAY

On the train leaving Nenana this
morning, Messrs J. w. Dunn and
Almer Rydeen, representatives elect
tothe territorial legislature from the
Fourth and Second divisions re-
spectively, left for the end of STEEL
enroute to Juneau, via the Broad
Pass trail.
They expect to go through to the
Riley creek roadhouse today and, as
they are pressed for time, will use
all possible haste on the journey.
Mr.. Rydeen has an eight-dog team
on which he travelled from Candle,
approximately 500 miles from Ne
mana; and Mr.. Dunn arrived from
Ruby With his five-dog team. Both
team are in fine condition and
their owners expect to make a
record trip.
So that they will be able to
catch the boat leaving Seward on
the 18th, Mr.. Browne suggested the
advisability of them getting in
touch with Mr.. Gerig, engineer in
charge at Anchorage, with a view
to getting an engine or gasoline
car to take them in to Anchorage,
should they need it.
Telephone service has been ex-
tended as far as Indian River, which
is approximately 40 miles from Tai
keetna, which is the end OF steel
on the coast division, from which
point they expect to communicate
with Mr.. Gerig.

A.E. c. PREPARE
TO LAY TRACK
ACROSS RIVER

Preliminary work for the purpose
of preparing a temporary roadbed
has been taken in hand and is be-
ing rapidly pushed forward, the
temporary road to run from the
Nenana yards across the river to the
grade on the Fairbanks right of
way.
The steel gang will probably
reach the gap in the line south of
town tomorrow and they will then
be brought to town to lay track
on the temporary roadbed and as
far up the Fairbanks grade as
possible; returning to complete the
line to the coal fields just as soon
as the gap in the grade has been
filled to permit of a continuance
of tracklaying toward Ignite.
The river ice has been carefully
tested and a route across picked
out, so that after the steel has
been laid, light loads will be taken
across on the train.

The theory Of the union is based upon the right Of
collective bargaining. There is other theory upon
which it could last night a power behind the ap-

That 'Rebuke' 10 Senator Lodge
From The Ne " York SUM-

OF its own party. The Democratic plat-
form adopted at Boston on Saturday
specifically calls for the amendment
of the treaty, including the League
covenant, not merely, like the Repub-
lican platform, for 'unequlvocal and
reservations" amounting 10
amendments. Does the World construe
this Democratic declaration as a ere
buke' to Senator Lodge and an express
sion Of approval OF the efforts OF Sen
tor Hitchcock and OF the World itself
to prevent any change whatever in the
document?
Evening journal., 1919-10-08

II is hard TO understand the mental
process by which our neighbor, the
World. has succeeded in persuading
itself that the platform Of the Massa-
chusetts Republicans Is "rebuke" TO
the senior Senator from that State.
Mr. Lodge has led and is yet leading
In the Senate the patriotic resistance
to the attempt to force through to
ratification the treaty In the form de-
manded by President Wilson; that is,
without dotting Of an 81" or the cross
ing Of a IT." without any modification
or qualification designed to rescue the
United States from the disastrous en-
gagement to which the President has
aimed from first TO last to commit the
government.
the treaty was thus written and was
thus unanimously adopted at Boston:
I'VE therefore favor prompt rati-
flcatlon Of the treaty Of peace with
out amendment but with such un-
equivocal and effective reservations
as will make clear the unconditional
right OF the United States 10 with
draw from the league upon due
notice. sc. There must be
no abridgement Of the sovereignty OF
the nation, OF the control of its
own domestic affairs or Of the
maintenance Of its national poll
cies."
The resolution then went on TO
"deprecate the action" that Is TO say,
to condemn the action Of President
Wilson and his American associates at
Paris with regard TO Fiume. with re-
gard to Thrace and with regard TO
Shantung.
The resolution adapOted by the Mas
sachusetts Republicans calls for the
refusal OF Mr.. Wilson's demand for
an unchanged treaty. 1t calls for neces-
sary changes in the treaty, by means
OF "unequivOcal and effective reserva-
tiOns" rather than by amendments. The
distinction between change by amend
ment and change by unequivocal and
effective reservation, as our neighbor
must knew, is non-essential. An un-
equivOcal and effective reservation
made part Of the treaty Is an amend
ment OF the treaty in substance II not
in form. Therefore the World deludes
itself and misleads its readers when 1t
presents the Boston declaration Of Sat
urday in this abbreviated fashion:
"All are also agreed that the
sooner a final disposition OF this
problem is made the better il will
be for the peoples Of the world. We
therefore favor prompt ratification
Of the treaty Of peace without
amendment"
What happened in the convention
when the delegates had heard only this
part Of the resolution and had not yet
heard the declaration for unequivocal
and effective amendments is told in
valid fashion by the Associated Press
