The Treaty and the Campaign.

To what extent and in what terms
will the peace treaty enter into the
presidential campaign' How many re-
publieans will appear at Chicago op-
posed altogether to the league of ma
tions idea! And what will they do if
the convention indorses league fash
ioned on the Lodge reservationss And
how many democrats will appear at
San Francisco asking for an indorse-
ment of the Presidents work at the
peace conference without qualification
or reservations And what will they
do if their request is deniedf
The treaty as submitted by the
President was never, after e1amina-
ton, as strong in the Senate as it was
made to appear; and as the end ap-
preached it sagged sadly. The Presi-
dents influence alone prevented COM
plete collapse. As the leader Of his
party and the sponsor for the pact
he necessarily had large say. But
in political quarters the guess is that
xeept for the White House pressure not
half a dozen senators would have voted
as pparently in favor of accepting
the treaty "without the dotting of an
81 or the crossing of t." Examina-
ton and debate changed sentiment rad
ically.
And sentiment outside of the Senate
changed to the disadvantage of the
Presidents position. Among the op.
ponents at the outset of all reserva-
tions to the treaty were former Presi-
dent Taft and President Lowell of Har-
ward University. Mr.. Taft took the
stump. But in time both came round,
and urged acceptance of reservations
in order to save the pact. Their in
vestigation had convinced them that
without reservations ratification was
impossible.
Nothing, however, could bulge the
President. He knew the situation
must have known it. Shut in though
he was, and disinclined to receive
callers, he yet was kept advised of
the Senate's proceedings. But, with
him, it was the treaty, the whole treaty
and nothing but the treaty, as he had
signed the instrument; and so he split
his party and went to defeat.
How will this result affect the third
term question: It would undoubtedly
have strengthened, and might have
made irresistible, the movement for
another nomination for Mr.. Wilson
except for his physical condition. Al
though much improved in health, he is
still an invalid, and nomination time
is only three months away. Never
theless, some Of Mr.. Wilson's friends
are in favor Of again putting the party
standard into his hands.
The treaty, important as it is, does
not now, and will not later, over
shadow the prohibition question, or
the state socialism question as pre-
sented in the proposition for govern
ment ownership and operation of rail
roads. Hence the San Francisco nomi-
nation must be made with regard to
all the questions that will enter into
the campaign.

Germany in Civil War.

Germany's civil war, growing out Of
the abortive reactionary revolution
and the general strike, is developing
a most serious phase. 1t is marked by
a return of the old Spartacide spirit
in even uglier form than that of a
year ago. Communism has taken ad
vantage of the temporary breakdown
OF government due to the Kapp re-
volt and has spread until it compasses
large section of Germany, chiefly
eentering in the industrial sections.
Late reports tell of successful battle
By the communists for the possession
Of Essen.
A most sinister note comes from Ber-
lin to the effect that Russian bolshevist
forces are advancing from the Rus.
sian frontier. If this is true-and il
may be true because in the present
conditions anything may happen-s
most dangerous element is injected
into the situation, close communion
between the radical elements of Ger
many and those Of Russia. Indeed, the
present communist tendency in Ger
many is attributed directly to Dol
shevik influences, spread through tn.
close contact Of the German and Rus
sian troops on the eastern front dur
ing the period Of armistice preceding
and following the treaty Of Brest
1Iitovlk.
Representatives of the allied govern
,nsnts at Berlin have congratulated
the Ebert government upon its restora
tien to power following the fall Of TIL
|. .Kapp regime. This signifies that tn
sIIie win support Ebert and his or
,seaaixa<ian in this crisis. It Is nes

ed may be made on Monday or Tues
day. IF that is done, the way Is
opened, if time remains, to recon
slider the vote by which ratification
was refused. So that technically, un-
der the rules, there still opens way
to ratification, wish reservations, if
seven senators change their positions
from the negative to the affirmative,
and all others remain where they stood
yesterday.

The Treaty Rejected.

Lacking seven votes of TWO 0-thlrdS,
the peace treaty has again failed in
the Senate and by majority of ten
that body has returned it to the
President. Disregarding motions to re-
consider, this ends the matter. At the
present moment the United States,
alone of the powers, remains at war
with Germany.
Responsibility for this deplOrable
situation will be variOusly placed, ac-
eording to partisan inclinations. By
some it will be laid upon those "irrec-
oncilables" of the republican party
who refused to accede to the treaty in
any form. By others it will be placed
upon those republicans who insisted
upon reservations. By some it will
be put upon those democrats who re-
fused to accept any reservations what
ever. By others it will be put upon
those democrats who, favoring some
form of reservations, insisted upon
their own form.
However the blame for the result
is attributed, the fact remains that
the treaty is definitely rejected, though
. majority of fourteen favored its
ratification with reservations. That
the country is disappointed is evident.
Up to the last moment of the voting
it was hoped that after these many
months of debate and maneuver, com
promise and negotiation, the Senate
would put its stamp of approval upon
the treaty, interpreted in a manner to
assure the retention of full American
rights and independence.
In another place the question of the
political effect of this failure to ratify
is discussed. Suffice it now to say that
the result is deplorable, lamentable
failure on the part of the Senate to
effect a conclusive peace after more
than eight months of consideration of
an instrument which was itself nearly
half year in the framing.
A resolution declaring a state of
peace between the United States and
Germany is pending and will be voted
on soon, perhaps on Monday. 1t is
so framed that if adopted by both
houses it must be submitted to the
President. He may veto it. IF he
does, or if either house fails to adopt
it, the country will still remain at
war with Germany, unless, in case of
veto, it is passed by a two-thirds vote
over his objections.
The other day Mr.. Bryan declared
that he hoped for the establishment
of method whereby it would be as
easy to make peace as it is to make
war. Yesterdays result, eliminating
in total failure of the peace-making
process, gives force to his suggestion.
Doubtless had the treaty Of peace
ben unaccompanied by a covenant for
y league Of nations, so interviewer as
10 make it impossible to disentangle
the two, it would have been ratified
ssng ago. And presumably if the
President had not to the final moment
insisted, personally and by proxy, upon
ratification without reservations, the
tve-shirds point would have been
Te&Asa and exceeded.

Start Him Right

The father of young boy can do him no
greater service than by starting a Savings
Account in his name and teaching him the
value of money at early age. You will
expect him to progress in his studies at school
and you will take pride and interest in his
education but are you giving serious thought
to his developing financial sense? Prob
ably not, and for that reason thousands of
fathers complain that their boys seem to think
that money grows on trees" when il is their
own fault.
Take the situation in hand now; profit by
the mistakes of others and have your boy
grow up with thrift instead of extravaganza
as companion.
Open an Account for him at the District
National Bank and teach him to take an in
terest in Saving-some day he will thank you
for it.
We Pay Interest at the Rate of so
