MERELY ASKING FOR
\ BLANK CHECK
New ! ork World

AItho Mr.. Taft stoutly insists that
the Republican platform means that
"the L Jnited States will enter the Lea
que with the Lodge reservations" il
has remained for Senator Smoot, who
was Of the Senate oligarchy that man
ipulated the Republican National Con
vention, to elucidatc the mystery of the
treaty plank. The senator from Utah
passionately reSents the vile Demo
cratic accusation that the issue was
eyaded. What the convention did was
to endorse the Scnatcs action in kill
ing the treaty and then leave the fu-
ture to itself.
What could be more limpid and
simple than his explanation -
The plank sustains every action
of the Senate. The final result is
upheld. The plank does not repu-
diate the League of Nations nor
does it pledge the party to any
specific action for the future.
Any future action will be based
on conditions existing at the time
when Senator Harding is the ac-
tual president.
There is nothing to initiate
against the senate taking up the
treaty question under Republi-
can president. What we do not
know is what will become of the
Leaugue within year hence.
The European nations which are
now members may have with
drawn by that time. Senator
Harding has made his record on
the League of Nations, and l
agree with his position

take to consider the treaty again,

PRESIDENTIAL POSSIBILITIES

Steamboat Springs Pilot
There Is no Disgusting the fact that
the Republican nominations for pres
idcnt and vice president have fallen
pretty fiat Disappointment and ap-
athy are everywhere manifold among
party men and most Of the expressions
are Of Indifference or Of frank dissat-
l-fartluu- There is nothing about the
ticket and the platform TO arouse en-
thuzlasm. There are spasmodic efforts
among strict Republican papers to en-
thuec, but mostly they are pitIful
efforts. Some Of the leading party
papers are outspoken in their dlsap-
pointmcnt.
The Republican platform was a
strahdlc or cy aslOn of most Of the i'm
portant issues. The people evidently
do not take Senator Harding 10 be 4
heavyweight" in statecraft. Hiram
johnson is sulking and Amos Pincot
and other pTogressiyes are forming a
third party.
II would look to be u splendid oppor-
.unity for the Democratic party which
meets next Monday in San Francico.
II they will put a little punch into
their platform. take an unequivocal
stand on the great issues before the
country and nominate candidates who
have an appeal there will be Il good
chance for success in November:
4 few months ago the Republicans
felt that they had everything their
own way; That they could put up
almost any kind of ticket and be GER
tain OF success. Already much of~this
confidence has vanished. The Amer
ican people do not blindly follow any
party and the Republicans have not,
apparently, made any great hit with
the people so far in the game; When
the Democrats finish their delibera-
tions il will be little easier to size up
the situation.

WALT WHITMAN,

1 loaf and invite my soul"
 The foregoing famous line is self analysis written by Walt Whitman, the noted American poet who was born on this day in the year 1S19. Whit man was a tramp poet, a vagabond genius who loafed through life en- toying it's treasures to the full. He was by instinct democrat and his poems all express the unrestriction and freeness of his vagrant life.
 Born in West Hills, Long Island, he left school at the age of twelve to follow his fathers trade of carpentry. The restlessnessof his nature became manifect when in quick succession he passed into lawyers office, entered the employ of a doctor and became a printers devil
 Next he became an itinerant teach CT in rural schools although almost without technical education. This oc- cupation did not hold him long and he returned to the printers case As tramp printer he wandered all over the United States and Canada.
 During his rowing Whitman frat ernized with people of every class and this intensified the mate democracy of his spirit. From the printers case he succeeded to the editorial chair He was very successful as a news paper editor and writer but the wand erlust constantly drove him from one post to another. In 1S46 he was. for a short perior, editor of the Brooklyn Eagle.
 All those years Whitman was seek ing mode of poetica1 expression The freedom of his thoughts however was hampered and repressed by all the conventional forms of verse. It was not until he was we'll past thirty that he originated the unique, ire gular recitative measures so peculiar to him alone. This style of poetry was the result of years of experiment. ing and was particularly adapted to
