 The Arkansas Democrat is glad to see the large number of influ- ential Democratic newspapers are rallying to the presidents support and 1t is believed that barring some sudden and unex- pected change of heart on the part of the maj jority leaders in the Senate, the peace treaty must be made the big issue in the 1920 campaign. Either the treaty must be ratified as it stands, without material change. or it mnst be submitted as an issue in the next presidential campaign. to be passed on by the people.
 This is delay, and regrettable delay, in the course, but there is precedent for delay, and it is precedent needlessly laid down by the isepubli cans themselves. Upon their shoulders rests the responsibility for the original de- lay, which has made all subse- quent delay inevitable.

groves Of trees. This valley was
nearly square, possibly extending not
over a mile in either direction, merely
a great hole trimmed by desert, a
strange, hidden oasis, rendered fertile
and green by some outburst of
fresh water from the rocks. Emerg-
ing upon it in midst Of the barren
d~esolation through which they had
been toiling for hours, blinded by al
kali dust, it seemed like some beau
tiful dream, a fantasy of imagination.
Miss Donovan doubted the evidence
of her own eyes, half convinced that
she slept. 1t was Moore's voice which
aroused her.
"Mendez must have got back, Joe,"
he said eagerly. There are horses
and cattle over yonder."

looked out.

cheek.

The rider drew up his horse, and
lifted his hat, his smiling lips reveal
ing a row of white teeth.
"A pleasant day. %senor," he said
graciously, his dark eyes searching the
faces Of the two men, and then dwell
ing with interest on the woman. "Ah,
your pardon, senorita; your presence
is more than welcome here" He
rested one hand on the wagon box,
the expression Of his face hardening.
"Yet an explanation might not be out
of place-the Senior Mendez may not
be pleased"
"We came under orders from Lacy"
replied Moore confidently. "You have
e us both before"
"True, but not the lady; you will
tell me about her?"
Skies climbed down over the wheel.
"It Is like this, senor." he began.
"Lacy did not know your party was
here; he thought you were all south
for another month yet. He would keep
this girl quiet, out of the way for q
time. She is from New York, and

shortly, there's only bout a mile

The passage was so narrow, and so
diversified by sharp turns, that Miss
Donovan, shut in behind the closed
cover, could perceive little of its ca-
ture. The cliffs arose preci3itoasly
on either side, absolutely ba>e. To
the left nothing could be seen but
black rock, but on the other side an
open space yawned, perhaps twenty
feet across, it's bottom impercertible.

Anxious to escape further indigni-
ties, and compromising the useless
ness Of any further struggle, with a
man on either side Of her, Miss Dono-
van silently clambered into the wagon,
and seated herself on a wide board,
evidently arranged for that purpose.
The fellow who had held back the top
followed, and Struggled into the seat
beside her. She noticed now he held
a gun in his hand, which he deposited
between his knees,
"All set?"
"Sure."
"Well keep awake, Joe, and mind

EXPRESS BELIEF
PEACE TERMS
WILL STAND
Indications Are Polish Rus.
sian Successes Will Not
Materially Change
Terms

Warsaw, Aug. 21.-fBy The Asso-
ciated Press)-It is not believed that
the recent Polish-Rusisan military
successes will materially change the
program of the Polish delegation at
the Minsk conference. Newspapers
express the belief that the basis Of
peace remain.
Poland will claim only the terri
tories inhabited by a majority Of Pol
ish and Catholic population. The So
Wet government does not contest this
point.
Poland will claim for the peoples
once forming a part of ancient Pol
and the right freely to determine their
lot.
h declaration Of the soviet gov
erncent on these points must be guar
anteed by acts.
Continue to Advance
Paris, Aug. 21.-In the principal
theatre of operations on the Polish
front the Poles are advancing toward
Brest-Litovsk. They have reached
the valley of the Middle Bug. Prison
ers taken aggregate 1900. Many
guns, with their carriages, were aban-
doned.
The chief operations are going on in
the fork of the Narew and Bug rivers,
from which the bolSheviki are retir-
ing hastily. The Poles advancing to-
ward Ostralenka as their objective the
cutting of communications between
the bolsheviki center and right. Thus
1T is between Ostralenka n Lomza
on marshy land that the enemy prob
ably will make his last effort before
the fate of the red army in the north,
the situation of which is grave, is de-
cided.
Initiating the maneuver executed in
1881 by Nicorlas l, bolsheviki have
withdrawn q section of their forces to
attack Thorn and Wloclawek, across
the Vistula and cut communications
between Danzif and Warsaw. These
troops have encountered a fresh Pol
ish army. Meanwhile, another army,
advancing from Modlin. has attacked
them from the south. Finally, a third
army is defending the Narew, endeav-
oring to cut off these troops from
their SINCE road of retreat in the
north.

STEAMER SINKS;

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, Aug. 21.-
Coast guards and lake steamers con-
tnued a futile search tonight for sur
vivors OF the steamer Superior City
which went dow off Whitefish Point
late Friday night after a collision with
the Willis L. King, according to mea-
gre reports.
Twenty-eight members of the crew
and n were missing and the
four survivors brought mere after be-
ing picked up from the wreckage had
all but abandoned hope for their res
cue, owing to the shor, time that
elapsed between the collision and an
explosion in the boiler room which
wrecked the stern of The steel ore car

The survivors left for their homes
tonight.
Tells of Collision
Peter Jacobson, a survivor, who was
at the wheel when his ship was ram
med. declared the King bore down on
them after the exchange of the usual
signals. The sea was calm and the
weather was rather hazy but he could
easily distinguish lights Of the King,
he declared.
Captain Herman Nelson of the
King, however. maintained a fog en-
veloped the vessels.
Be.ief that a number of the miss
ing were killed or seriously injured by
the explosion was expressed by Cap
tain Edward Sawyers or the superior
City. The majority Of them were in
state rooms directly over the boiler
