A crutch would have seemed more
natural than a mattock, for the man
was very old and bent and wrinkled,
and his hands trembled even when
he leaned on the mattock handle to
speak to the young man in the road.
Yet he was digging Justify at a deep
hole, preparing to plant young oak.
The young man pulled up his horse
at the yard gate. "Grandsire Green,
he said, "it would be natural for me
to plant trees because L might live
to enjoy their shade and their beau
yourself and leave that sort of hard
work to US younger fellows?''
well, my boy" replied the old
man, II found trees here when 1
came into the world more than eighty
years ago, and when l go out of
the world I want to leave some trees
here for the people who are to fol-
low me-"
Why should not every man feel
the same way about it? George Pea
body said, Education is a debt due
from the present to future genera
tons" Trees are just as much so.

Observe Arbor Day r..
That is one of the things that the
United States department of agri-
culture has in mind when it says
that no community can afford to
neglect Arbor day. But it has a
great many other things in mind,
too. Nothing helps more to beautify
a city or a town than trees, and
few things so educate the people in
public spirit and foresight as the care
of trees.
The celebration of Arbor day by
the planting of trees, say the depart
ment specialists, is an, assumption
of an all-the-year-round responsible
ity. There is, quite ss much need
for. actual planting.
In the past, the planting of trees
on Arbor day has usually been in
school grounds and parks. Recently,
it has been the means of arousing
in roadside paintings, both
in city and country. ... -.
Some, objection has been made to
trees along the roadside on the
ground that they hinder drying out
after wet weather. This holds good
if the road is poorly built; but trees
are actually an aid in keeping a we'll
built road dry, if they are not plant
ed too close. The roots, by constant
" taking in water, assist in drain
force of driving rains, prevent
washes in the roadway. The most
important use of trees by the road
side, however, is the prevention of
dust. Dust is the cementing mate
rial in macadam roads, and if it is
loosened and blown away the break
ing up of the road is FASTENED.

covenant back to the senate at once
with a set of reservations of his own
drafting. 1t was advised that the
President in drafting his reservations
show a Willingness to compromise and
to meet at least halfway the senate
majority including the % Democrats
who had voted for the Lodge reserva-
tions.
The President, according to the
recommendation, was to send to the
senate with the treaty and reserva-
tions a message to the following eff
feet:
To Offer New Reservations.
II am as fully convinced now as
when | brought the treaty and league
covenant back from Europe that they
offer the best opportunity for world
peace and the reconstruction of the
nations. But | recognize that under
the constitution the senate has CO.
ordinate powers with the executive
in treaty making. The senate has in
sisted that there be certain reserva-
tions to the treaty and covenant pro-
tecting American rights.
''The wording of some of the reser-
vations agreed to by majority of
the senate nullifes the treaty. The
reservations which propose as sub
stitutes for the senate reservations
fully protect every American interest
that can possibly be jeopardized un-
der the treaty and covenant as sign
ed at Versailles. Conditions through
out the world are such that further
delay in ratifying the treaty and
covenant may have disastrous results.
If the senate will ratify the treaty
upon the basis of the reservations
which l submit, will make every eff
fort to have them accepted by the
other nations"
But the Answer Was Different.
1t is not conceivable that Secretary
Americus times-recorder., 1920-05-18

Colby failed to carry the message
from the Democratic senators to the
President but at this writing, ten
days after the message was sent, none
of the senators who joined in it has
had a word of approval or disap-
proval from the White House.
The Presidents Oregon telegram
followed so closely the conference of
May A, that every senator who took
part in it interprets the Presidents
telegram as his answer. And, they
not only interpret it as the answer.
but also as Mr. Wilson's defiance of
the leaders of his own party in the
senate.
Entirely aside from the question as
to whether the President is right or
wrong in his unyielding attitude on
the treaty and his determination to
force it into the presidential cam
paign as the paramount issue, it may
be set down as a fact that he stands
practically alone so far as the lead
ing men in his own party are con-
cerned.

DEMOCRATS TO

Senate Leaders to Meet
Colby March a to Ex-
change Views.
II. N. RICKEY,
N. E. A. Staff Correspondent.

WASHINGTON, May 18.-To say
that the relations between President
Wilson and the Democratic leaders
inthe senate are strained as the re-
suit of the formers refusal to yield
an inch in respect to the treaty, is
putting it mildly.
When Mr.. Wilson sent his now-fa-
nous telegram to the Democrats of
Oregon, demanding that the party in
its national platform stand for the
treaty and League of Nations pre-
cisely as he brought them back from
Europe, he fguratively slapped in the
face all of the northern Democratic
senators, particularly those on the
foreign relations committee.
The Oregon telegram was directly
opposed to the recommendation which
was made to the president about a
week before by the Democratic mem

Conference Called by Colby.

Secretary of State Colby, undoubt-
edly with the Presidents approval if
not at his suggestion, asked these
Democratic senators for a conference
to exchange views on the treaty stu

A. The discussion was very frank
The senator's sent to the President
through Secretary Colby a definite
recommendation as to how it was pos
sible to bring about ratification and
save the treaty and the league from
becoming campaign issues.
They advised and urged that the

JACOBSON BACK FROM FAR NORTH
 WITH OLD IVORY

Victor Jacobson, better known as the "Scurvy kid," arrived in Ne mana late yesterday afternoon with a team of fifteen dogs and sleigh load of old ivory and curios which he gathered during the past season along the North Alaska and Si- berian coasts, where he was en- gagged in trading during the greater part of the summer. He was ac- eompanied on the trip from Nome by Al Nostrum, also an oldtimer of the Interior country, and they were 60 days enroute.
 Jacobson, who spent large part of last winter in the Government hospital, with a broken leg, left for the lower country in a small boat, shortly after the opening of navi- gation, and upon arrival at Nome signed on as member of the crew of the gas schooner Arctic, a mail boat plying between St. Michael and points in the far north, beyond Deering. Later he transferred to the trader Alaskan and crossed over to the Siberian side, where he did considerable trading with the Russians at Anadir, East Cape, Rubber Bay, and other points. He was at Anadir when the news came of the laundering of the Belvidere.
 There are three Americans at Anadir, he says, one of them being Prof. Lampe, formerly a violinist of Nome, who is now in charge of a large trading post and doing well. The Russians he met along the coast were very friendly and hos pitable and easy to trade with. They do the trading with the na- tives of the interior and sell to the trading schooners which visit the coast.
 Arrivals on the Siberian coast are discouraged from going into the interior, because of the unsettled conditions resulting from an un stable government
 Jacobson says he saw all kinds !! of Russian money on the coast, and ! that none of it has much value ! Eighty Siberian rubles, for instance, have the value of one American [ dollar; Kerensky rubles exchange { on the basis of about 3S for a dollar; the Czar rubles 20 for dollar, and the Kolchak money has , no value at all Money is very plentiful at Anadir and the 200 i people there seem to be very pros perous-in real money. They like gold, and. have considerable of it. The summer population of Anadir | is about double that of the winter.
 Much of the ivory which Jacob son obtained on the American coast he took to Siberia to have it made i into novelties, the natives on the Russian side being more skillful in cutting. He says that many of the old natives who formerly cut ivory in the Nome district were killed off by the flu epidemic.
 Liquor on the Siberian side is very plentiful, Jacobson says. All kinds of booze are obtainable, from lager beer to the best Scotch, there apparently being no restrictions , against the traffic. ,
 Jacobson plans to return to Der

cluding one general, six other of- ficers, and AS men.
 Graves says that the American detachment was attacked by the Russians, the offensive operation be- ing very much in the nature of a surprise and entirely unprovoked.
