FutiIity of LYING.

Whatever convenience may be
thought to be in falsehood and dissim-
ulation is soon over; but the incOn-
venience of it is perpetual, because it
brings man everlasting jealousy and
suspicion, so that he is not believed
when he speaks the truth, nor trusted
when perhaps he means honestly

Be Ii Ever So Humble

The heart goes out on Ieaden wings
in hopeless longing. The pent-up heat
of unspent love fevers the dispirited
soul. The minds eye narrows it's
concentrated energy on a single spot.
Anguish, sweetly bitter, slows the beat
of a downcast heart. A veil passes
over the world-and again is gone.
Such is Inconsistencies. = Milwaukee

here, to burn Budapest and STAY all hos

ter said, declined to have anything
to do with the proposal. M. Scavenius
also declared that not having taken
any part in the decision Of the Paris
Conference, which allotted Schleswig-
Holstein to Denmark, his country does
not feel bound to take the whole terri
tory. He indicated plainly, however,
that Denmark was "eady to take the
indisputa5ly Danish portions. Recent
dispatches from Copenhagen have re-
ported that the Danes were looking
with apprehension at taking into their
country a large German-bred population.
Washington, May Zlst-Repeated
statements by German officials Of Varl-
Gus ranks that Germany cannot consent
to accept the peace treaty In he form
presented, have led officials in Wash
ington to give serious consideration to
the course to he pursued in the event
of the failure of The Paris Conference
to bring about the restoration OF peace
in the near future. While announce
ment has come from Paris that the
Supreme Council had framed plans for
dealing in a military way with the stu
alton. in the event of a refusal of the
Germans to sign the treaty, it is as
sumed here that before resort was had
to the use Of troops, an effort would be
made to bring the Germans to terms
through economic pressure. Officials
here believe this would result in the
speedy collapse of the present German
Govt, under the attacks of the socialist
elements, which are understood to be
waiting to make peace on any terms.
A change in Govt. however, would
necessarily delay for some months at
least the signature to the peace treaty.
In their calculations, officials do not
overlook the possibility that the repu-
diation of the treaty by Ebert's Govt.
might be so popular in Germany as to
ensure his support by a majority OF
the people, in which case the only
course open would be the resumption
of the war, and a military occupation
Of Germany.

ATTACKS LEAGUE
Says Presidents Work Left

DEFENDS PACT 0PP0sERs

When President Wilson ended his
work at the Paris peace conference.
''the United States had not a friend
in Europe, Asia or Africa, and our
brilliant service in the war was al
most forgotten in the storm Of pro-
tests which followed him as he SAIL
ed for home" Senator Cummins, re-
publican, Iowa, declared today in an
address in the Senate attacking the
league Of nations covenant.
The only thing, the President
received in America by multitudes of
good people," Senator Cummins said,
was a covenant for league of ma
tions and this only because these peo-
pie believed. many Of them without
inquiry, that the league would bring
peace to a war-weary world and
would maintain it in all the years to
come. Gradually they are beginning
to see the tremendous burdens We
are asked to assume and gradually
they are understanding that there are
some provisions in the covenant which
must inevitably provoke war"

Defends Opponents of Pact.

Senator Cummins deplored the at
tempt of some senators to charge
other senators with opposing the
treaty simply to discredit the President
and to accomplish their political de-
signs, as well as efforts OF the latter
group to make it appear that those sup
porting the President were Indifferent,
IL not hostile, toward the vital concerns
of their own country. :.
1.-THE casual observer in the Senate,
he added, would be inclined to reach
the conclusion that the most tnf1u-
entail senators upon this side Of the
chamber are altogether insensible to
the awful horrors of war and are de-
termined to keep the world In con-
flict simply to antagoniEe the Presl-
dent or to work out some petty am
bition for party supremacy. while at
the same time he could not well re-
sist the inference that the most per-
suasive senators upon the other side
of the chamber are bent on wrecking
their own country simply to vindi-
cate the infallibility of the chief ex-
ecutive in his work at Paris"
Senator Cummins contended that
when the war was ended ''our exit
should have been as speedy and COM
plete as possible" This did not mean,
however, he added, that the United
States should have abandoned its al
lies or made separate peace with
Germany, but it does mean that 1t
was not our duty to associate our
selves with foreign powers in re-
forming the map of the world and in
agreeing to maintain it ss the victors
had made 1t"

In the second group are representatives of stores iz the combine, eight in number to be- gin with. who controlled 37000.000 pounds of fish a year.
 Tn the next group are those known as buyers which, the grand jury says, made possible the object of the eom- bmation by the purchase of the fish,
 MT Webber asserted that r. Munroe Dyer of New York, one of the defend- ants, who was the promoter Of the New Bay State Fishing company, did not know haddOck from a cod" The commonwealth claims, he said, that this combination intended. first, to create a corporation to avoid detection. IL is our claim that it was not intended to capitalize he fish bus mess, but what it was intended to dc was to plunder the public.
 We will show this corporation was intended to divide large profits anc i to hide grossly exaggerated salaries which amounted to S100 poo q year. 4 l lot of Watered stock was to be issued among the defendants and dividend: were to be split up"
