PRESS COMMENTS.
NOT PEACE BUT POLITICS.

Senator Knox's speech in support OF
the Republican plan to declare peace by
resolution Of Congress was tricked out
with many legal bubble, but II was
only plea of evasion. With all his
artifices, be had at last to rest his argu-
ment upon assertions having no basis
of law or fact.
'The war is Mt an end" he exclaimed
many times, which is true rs regards
the Western Allies and Germany and
positively untrue as concerns ourselves.
The only way we can end the war is
by treaty, and the only treaty in existence
is the one that the United States Senate
has rejected. Under that agreement we
arc assured the fruits of victory III addition
to the blessings of peace. The Senate
resolution contempates nothing better
than separate negotiation with Ger
many and a separate peace.
Knowing that the resolution, If passed
over the Presidents veto, might come
under the eye of the Supreme Court, Mr..
Knox Processes confidence in the judg-
ment of that tribunal which we can
hardly believe that he feels. Upholding
| the War Prohibition Law, the court last
December said that lin the absence OF
specific provisions TO the contrary, the
period of WAR has been held to extend to
the ratification Of the treaty of peace or
the proclamation cf peace. The Senate
has failed to ratify the treaty of peace,
and there can be no lawful proclamation of
peace until il does.
The Senator recital ot the evils Of war
powers exercised in time Of peace is the
one part of his address which will stand
examination In that, however, he con
victs himself and all who voted with him
TO prolong the conditions OF which he
complains We arc still in state OF war
| because partisan Senate refuses to
accept the peace negotiated by the Presi-
| dent and ratified by all the other belliger-
onts, and Mr., Knox, like all the lesser
1 lights in the ranks of the ohstructionists,
/ is talking politics rather than consutu-
! tional law or common sense when he

BEAUTY.

The beauty of n lily and the beauty OF n

Make bright gloomy corner and exalt
the common place,
But there's nothing shines go brightly IN
this world of human need
As the beauty and glory of q KIND and
thoughtful deed
There are lovely things TO look at-therc's 9
the blue sky and the sun
And the hill tops in the distance, and the
works that men have done,
But the hest Of Gods creations, IN this
world of 10y and smart,
Are the helping hand OF service and the
big and generous heart.
Not on canvas or in marble, or m flowers
which bloom TO fade,
Or in lovely skies which vanish, are the
lasting beauties made;
They make bright the dismal places, but
the kind and CHEEKY voice,
And the heart that is unselfish make the
weary 10 rejoice
There is beauty in lily, and there S
beauty in the hills,
There is beauty in the blossoms wet with
dew the morning spills,
But the richer lasting beauty which this
world forever needs,
Through its days OF tribulatlon, Is tie

The authorities and people 81 nc CITY
Of Wilmington have too long been an
different to the quality of the water they
drink and use for culinary purposes
They have known for months II vas not
what Il should be. Nov they have 81
fetal information, from the report oi
agents Of the United States Health Ser
vice. that the Brandywine river, from
which the city derives its water supply
is seriously polluted by sewage drainage
including much deleterious matter from
the various manufactures along the
stream. The official report states that
unless the situation IS speedily renedied,
the government will prohibit the rail
road trains running through this city
making use Of our city water
Now, if our public water supply Is not
fit for consumption by passengers o.
through trains, it is not fit for the peo-
pie Of Wilmington to use. There is no
evasion Of this conclusion.
The duty Of the authorities, therefore
is plain. 1t is TO go to work, Immediately
and effectively, to remedy the situation
And all concerned, manufacturers along
the stream as well as others. should 90
operate, willingly and heartily, IN the con
summation Of this important reform.
