BILLS AGAINST
NEWbERRY ARE
DECIDED VALID

Grand Rapids. Mich, Jan. H.
Validity of the indictments against
Senator Newberry and 1874 others
charged with violating the election
laws in the 1918 senatorial elec-
ton was upheld by Federal Judge
Sessions here today in dismissing a
demurrer filed by counsel for the
indicted men.
Arguments on the demurrer we're
heard last Monday, counsel for the
defendants attacking the constitu-
tionality of the general election
law, and the application to the case
of what is known as the mail fraud
section of the United States GRIM
inal code.
Congress has the right and pow
er to regulate not only the election,
but the nomination of its members,
the court held. The corrupt prac-
tices act also is held to be valid,
and the court ruled that any fraud
regardless Of the subject matter,
whether in an election or in any
other activity which aims to use
the United States mails for its fur
therance, comes clearly within the
meaning Of sections 81 and 215 OF
the criminal code.
The decision upheld the suffici-
ency of all six counts in the first
indictment which will be made the
hasis for the trial scheduled for

FRENCH AFFIx
| 0. K. ON SENATE
Make Example, However, Of One
Accused of Having Dealings
With the Enemy.

Paris, Jan. 12.-Most of the out
going senators who were candi-
dates were reelected yesterday, one
outstanding exception being
Charles Humbert, who was acquit-
ted last May by court martial of
a charge of having had dealings
with the enemy. He withdrew on
the second ballot and asked his
supporters to throw their strength
to President Poincaire.
One unified socialist candidate
was elected. Hitherto that party
had boycotted the senate, advocat-
ing its abolition.
Clemenceau Out.
For the first time in the history
of France the premier is not a
member of either the senate or the
chamber of deputies. This was a
result of M. Clemenceau's refusal
to be candidate in the Var con-
stituency, Rene Renault being
elected to the premier's seat in the
senate. M. Clemenceau will thus
be unable to take part in the cleo
tion Of a president.
Today's newspapers unite in fe-
licitating President Poincaire on
his election to the senate from the
department of the Meuse.
President Poincaire has written
to the electors accepting the SEN
atorship. He was not a candidate
but received a few votes on the
first ballot and was chosen almost
unanimously on the second.
II am profoundly touched by the
mark of faithful affection you have
spontaneously given me-" he wrote
AT the end of the magistracy en-
trusted to he by the national as
sembly l shall be proud again to
represent the patriotic populations
of the Meuse. / shall work With
them for the rebirth Of our unfor-
tunate country. They can count
upon my entire devotion"

WILSON NEVER
THOUGHT MUCH
OF BRYAN VIEW
No Split Now Because
They Were Not Really
Together.
By DAVID LAWRENCE.
Especial to The Argus)

Washington. Jan. 12.-This is the
story Of Bryan versus Wilson.
Once upon time Woodrow Will
son, college president, wrote q let
ter expressing the profound hope
that somebody would knock the
political personality OF William
Jennings Bryan into "a cooked hat"
The Commoner had just come back
from a trip around the world and
advocated what then seemed So
cialistic doctrine-namely govern
ment. ownership of railroads. Not
more than four years later, Mr.. Will
son, president-elect Of the United
States, was resolving that for the
benefit of party solidarity. bye
cones had better be bye-gones and
that the man who helped swing
the Baltimore convention for a pro-
gressive candidate. could not be
ignored. So he made him secretary
of state and despite the inevitable
conflict expected to arise daily be-
tween the two men,. they managed
to stay affiliated for about two
years. Then they broke. Mr.. Will
son wanted to send and did send a
note to Germany over the sinking
of the Lusitania and plainly i'm
piled the use of force to compel
compliance with American de-
mands. Mr.. Bryan abhorred the
idea Of war and resigned.
| Campaigned In 1915.
Nevertheless in the campaign OF
1916, Brother Bryan went from the
Mississippi river to the Pacific coast
extolling Mr.. Wilson or the he.
kept-us-out-of-war platform For a
little while there was a tendency
toward reunion. Occasionally Mr.
Bryan dropped in at the White
house, left his card, expressed a few
thoughts if the president happened
to be in, or wrote long memoranda
if he wasn't. Presently the an
swers and Acknowledgements got
fewer and fewer and the Commoper
became correspondingly discourag-
ed. After the armistice, he hoped
to have something to do with the
peace negotiations and even made
some suggestion about the person
mel of the American peace commits
sion. Mr.. Bryan complained to his
friends later that since his advice
, wasn't apparently welcome, he
wouldn't offer it any more. And
he said sundry other things about
the unwisdom Of ignoring the Re
publican party in the makeup of the
peace mission and the terrible en-
cumbrance which the Democratic
party was being compelled to bear
in the form of Wilson arbitrariness
and self-sufficiencq. Indeed, Mr.
Bryan's observations differed very
little from what one might hear
in the Republican cloakroom only
the Commoner wept as a parent
over the errant ways Of the Demo
cratic child while the Republicans
rejoiced over the discontinue OF
their chief opponent Again and
again Mr.. Bryan told his friends
that the president should accept
reservations to the peace treaty
This conclusion he reached after a
careful examination of public opin-
ion. He deemed it much more ef-
fective help for the president to
say that the treaty should be rati-
fled with reservations than to argue
