To return to Germany: The leaders
of affairs there still insisted last week
that the peace treaty could not and
must not be signed. There appears to
be marked revival of sentiment in
favor of the former kaiser, and it is
even reported that an organization Is
being formed for the purpose of bring
ing him back and restoring him to
power. Gustav Stresemanny leader of
the national liberal party, has warned
the allies that they must not demand
the surrender of Wilhelm and says his
indictment will mean the overthrow
of the republic All Of which probably
is more interesting than important.
But there are many evidences that
the Germans are preparing for eventu-
alities in case they do not sign the
treaty. Most recent of these is the
information that they are systematic
cally and rapidly withdrawing all ma
terial from the regions Immediately to
the east of the zones of occupation
and from the probable pathways the
allies would follow if further advance
into Germany were ordered. The in-
science of the Huns, in the occupied
territory and elsewhere, is increasing
and results in frequent clashes with
the allied soldiers, some of which have
been attended with fatalities.

Into the midst of all this ruction
Senator Knox projected his plan to
compel the separation of the league
of nations covenant and the peace
treaty and thus to permit their sep
arate consideration by the senate His
resolution, as reported to the senate
by the foreign relations committee,
would virtually serve notice on the
peace conference that unless it d.
vorces the two documents the senate
will do 1t. The plan of the opposition
leaders is to ratify the terms OF psacss
with Germany without delay andst5
subject the league covenant to extend
ed elaboration and possibly to a ma
tional referendum. This, of course,
opens up the real fight on the league
of nations and stormy and long de-
bate is expected. Senator's who had
not intended to speak on the league
until the pact was formally presented
for ratification are now hastily pre-
pairing their addresses. The support
ers of the league said they would
make hard fight to prevent a vote
on the Knox resolution until after the
peace treaty has been signed by the
Germans.

MeSsrs. Dunno and Walsh, ennis
saries of the Irish-American societies,
finally succeeded in obtaining brief
interview with President Wilson in
Paris and laid before him the claims
of the representatives of Stree Ire
land" to be heard by the peace con-
ference. They asked Mr. Wilson what
he was going to do in view of the pro-
Irish resolution adopted by the senate,
and according to the statement of the
emissaries he replied that "the Ameri-
can commissioners could not take up
the case Of Ireland officially with the
peace conference, but that he himself
and others had done, and would con-
tinue to do, unofficially what they
could do in the interest of Ireland;
that the American commission had not
yet taken up the senate resolution re-
questing them to use their efforts to
secure hearing for De Valera, Grit
fifth and Plunkett."
The general strike of the CONNER
cial Photographers union in the United
States at first looked like a fizzle, but
took on a more serious aspect when
the railway operators organization or
dered its members to accept no COM
mercial messages for the Western
Union or Postal Telegraph companies.
Konenkamp, head Of the Commercial
operators, said their fight was direct
ed mainly against Postmaster General
Burleson.

more serious because the latter have
been scoring notable victories over the
Czechs and Roumanians. The peace
cOnferees in Paris were forced to take
especial notice of this condition and
the council of four decided that the
boundaries between Hungary and
Roumania and Czecho-Slovaki must
be fixed speedily and Bella Kun told to
what lines he must withdraw his
forces unless he wished the great
powers to interfere with an army.
Bolshevik successes in other regions
caused uneasiness in conference cir
cles. Admiral Kolchak suffered several
rather severe reverseS at the hands of

Turkeys peace delegation arrived
in Paris and, without being officially
received, was sent to Vaucresson, in
the suburbs. Its status is rather
misty, for no one seemed to know
whether or not the entente allies
would consider 1t necessary to make
a formal peace with the disrupted
Turkish empire. The Turks went to
Paris on their own suggestion, and at
least it was understood that they were
not plenipotentlaries but consultants.
1t is felt in Paris that the partition of
Turkey is an accomplished fact, since
Constantinople Is controlled by Great
Britain and France, while Asiatic
Turkey is completely in the hands Of
the Italians, Greeks and British.

Embryonic candidates for state Of

year already are being discussed here
by Democratic and Republican mem
bers of the legislature. The senatorial
victory of Selden P. Spencer last No
Vember made the G. o. P. leaders con

be occupied in 1921 by a Republican.

OF a century declare the success of
the Republicans last November will
be no criterion to dope out the next
race for governor. They argue the
wet and dr. issue is settled and con
sequently there will be no incentive
for the brewers of the big towns to
spend their money to elect a Republi-
IN. This may be true and may be a
good argument from the rural stand
point, but the fact remains that Gov.
Gardner won by a very close vote and
Folk was defeated by a large margin.

reelected last November to the su-
preme bench, is being discussed as the
