A SAD PASS

The great uplift leaves mortals cold, Their hearts do not respond; We must suspect, if truth be told,
 Of wickedness they're fond. Abandoned, unregenerate,
 How can they wear a smile, With growing evils to abate.
 A world that's full of guile? They surely do not realize
 Mankind has gone to pot There's nowhere short of Paradise
 A true, idyllic spot. woeful state of things, a lack
 Of "sweetness'' and of Tight" How can men walk the beaten track When naught that is is right?

 France must be protected against the miIitarists of the central empires. un- less we do our part with England and Italy and Japan and other countries there would be another war in another generation and we should have to go over it all again with even greater losses than we have suffered recently.

 All the world is surfeited with war. and the balance of the world is agreed that the people known as boches shall pay to the full limit for their destruc- tion and brutalities. They shall be made hewers of wood and drawers of water for the next several generations and shall be put in position where they cannot soon rise again to warfare.
 France and Belgium and Italy must be and England and America must be put in position where they can their trades and commerce. These things can only be brought about by a properly organized league of na- tions-a league for constructive work and above all for maintaining permanent peace of the world.
 The republican campaign to embarrass the President in this work and to place the American people and the American government in a false light before the peoples of Europe will be of no eventual avail.

TWEED BRACE TALKS ABOUT THE LEAGUE OF
 | NATIONS AND PRESIDENT WILSON'S WORK

upon a constitution of a league of ma tions which will not interfere with the established principles of the American republic.
 The original draft of this league con- stitution was no more nor less than a diagram, to be discussed and worked out It was perhaps not the intention of any three members of the peace con- ference to adopt it in that form. It must and will be amended so that all the nations of the allied forces will ac- cept it. Otherwise it would be worth less.
 # # #
 I admire the senators among both dem- ocrats and republicans who have been silent, awaiting the final draft and adop- tion of the principles of the league of nations, on which the senate must pass before it can be ratified. These sena- tors have advised with the President, suggesting amendments and language which the senate and the American peo- pie would ratify.
 It is the duty of all of us to suggest and to encourage President Wilson in the strenuous work which he has un- dertaken.
 If league of nations can bring about permanent peace and not interfere with the commerce and freedom of our peo- pie or other peoples, we all want it. After all 1t must be more or less of a gentlemen's agreement in writing, and it must appeal to the peoples of the allied nations, and likewise to the right think ing people of the balance of the world.

went to the meeting of the Farm CTS Protective League of Alabama held in the house of representatives ai Montgomery on Wednesday and Thurs day, and I enjoyed it and believe good will come from it. The programme was comprenen- sive one and on it were men who spoke with authority on farming, on banking and on business related to agriculture Some of the topics were most sugges- tive. "The Small Farmer General Az riculture," "Diversification,' "1nten- sive Cultivation" These related to the practical side of farming itself.
 The related subjects were equally suggestive. The Proper Relation of the Banking Interest to the Farmer 'The Proper Relation of the Commer- cial Bodies of Alabama to the Farmer, "The Sherman Antitrust Law and the Farmer" Importance of Organiza- tion," ."The Value of Publicity" Home Markets and Marketing" Good Roads,"
 I think without being inyidious can say that the paper read by Ex-Governor Conner on "The Cotton Situation" was one of the features of the session, for he brought to the discussion long ex- perfence as cotton farmer, cotton ad- vancer, cotton buyer and cotton spin ner. and the whole paper bristled with facts.
 Mrs Mathis was given great ova- ton and was at her best as she drove home fact after fact in her own com mon sense way or convulsed the crowd with her inimitable drollery as it play ed around the heads of farmers. mer- chants and bankers. She e truly re- markable talker and gets the attention from the start and holds 1t until she quits She paid MT. Barrett a sincere tribute for his help in her work and said that The Age-Herald had done and was doing a great part for diversi- fled farming in Alabama
 I did not hear all of the speakers. but those l nearQ were interesting ana informing. This refers to those on tho programme and those called out from the floor. Messrs. Gulledge, Turnip- seed and Dunaway all made intensely practical talks along lines which show ed that they were not only interested in agriculture but in those engaged in it. l was glad to see the human side of farming brought out so prominently.
 
 Hon. M. c. Allgood. commissioner of agriculture and industries, was on hand and not only delivered hearty address of welcome but showed his interest by sticking to the sessions. President O. P. Ford of the Farmers union was in attendance and made telling speech and seemed greatly in- tereste in the proceedings. pr. J. F. Duggar was on constant watch as the representative of Auburn, and while having little to say, aided by his wise counsel in every possible way.
 Dr. P. A. Baker. general secretary

1 of the Anti Saloon League of America I but one of Alabama's largest farmers | spoke on '"The Importance of Organi-
 zation" in a way to give indication of his ability as a master organizer. 1 was amused when someone remarked | that the farmers couldn't be organized 1 to hear someone say on the floor that pr. Baker and Brooks Lawrence could organize anything. There was a gen eral laugh over the good natured sally. s"s
 The audience greatly enjoyed the ad- dress of w. B. Folmar of Pike county, and when he began to admit some of the shortcomings of bankers in their past dealings with farmers there were some fervent amens and as the spirit of confession got hold of him and he told of a new feeling among the finan- ciers for the agriculturists it looked for awhile as if a genuine revival was going to break out. Banker Folmar, while owning up to some sins of omis- sion on the part of his tribe of money lenders, was courageous enough to point out LeW InotcS SWiHliuihS III the eyes of country people when they looked towards the custodians of wealth. The Hon. James Weatherly of Jeff
 ferson county really made hit with
 his modest talk to the men who grow
 the stuff for city folks to eat and
 WI xuo al f~ thin k
 really convinced his hearers that the Civic association and other civic bod
 ies in Birmingham were truly wishful
 to be of service to the farmers not only
 in the counties contiguous to Birming- ham. but throughout the entire state. They gave him great hand.
 Hon. Samuel M. Adams of Chiffon county. who knows possibly as much man in 1t, having had number of years close touch with them in tho days of the Farmers alliance. while ad- hitting that 1t got into politics yet maintained that out of it good came both to the state and to the farmers, 4 league was in a position to go forward in a safer course, being warned by some of the missteps of the alliance.
 Joseph o. Thompson, the president, deserves credit for his untiring effort to bring together the farming and the allied interests into conference. He was always courteous and tactful while presiding. and his response to the address of welcome was full of food for thought. He is a man of vision and, fortunately. is also man of infinite falth-but he is not merely a dreamer but a doer. He loves Ala bama and wants to do his part in mak- ing it the best state in the union in every way.
 I came from the meeting impressed with the fact that the farmers of the south will never come into their own until there is team play between them

TITLE most outrageous occurrence in American political and legis-
 = lative life of the present genera tion was the action of the few repub- lican senators in Washington last week.
 They blocked necessary legislation for the continuance of the government and threw every possible obstacle in the way of the Presidents work within the peace conference now in session in Paris.
 These men thought they could bluff President Wilson in the calling of an ex- tra session of Congress. They failed. They will fail in their efforts to em- barrass him in his work for league of nations.
 When the armistice was signed many people in this country thought the Presi- dent should have said to the European powers with which we were associated in the great war that we had done our duty; we were glad of our accomplish ments; we did what we did because it was necessary and right and just and hu- mane; but now that Germany and her allies were whipped and had practically internationally surrendered we would re- tire and leave the terms of final peace to our European associates in the war.
 The American government did not do this. It sent delegates to the peace con- ference, headed by the President him. self, and encouraged the format ton of e league of nations to bring about a per manent peace
 The American people, being committed, are now determined to see the President through, advising him, however, to insist
