several times promised his discharge,
his candidacy for congress from the

Within the woods hermit thrush
Trails an enchanted flute along.

With leaves that rot beneath the tree
The bird that set its toll to tune,
And made home for melody,
Lies dead beneath the death-white moon.

IOWA PRESS COMMENT.

Wilson, most OF US will forgive him
for being democrat.
Cherokee Democrat: From the com.

greater man than he was when he was
a candidate for the Iowa governorship.
Davenport Democrat: Lord Grey
voices the British view that the league
OF nations will be much better of
with America in it's plus reservations
than not in it at all The fact that
everyone can egree to this in nowise
lessons the fact that the worst In
stead of the best of motives inspired
the senate's reservations.
Cedar Rapids Republican: Now that
Lord Grey, the British stateman who
had as much TO do with the compost
ton of the league of nations as any
other one man in the world, has &C
copied the Lodge reservations as
wholly acceptable, why shall we as
Americans continue to oppose them?
Dubuque Telegraph-Herald: Old
fashioned housewives are still bit
disposed to turn up their noses at
canned stuff" even while yielding
more and more to its allurements. But
such contempt is no longer justified.
Our children and children's children,
particularly those living in cities, will
live mostly out of cans, and will be
better. fed thereby than we have been.

FOREIGN CRITICISM.

The London Saturday Review is speaking
out plainly. 1t calls the president "a political
gambler who knew perfectly that he was acting
ultra wires and defying the American constltu-
ton in his conduct of the peace negotiations, :
The extent of the mischief wrought by him at
Paris, continues the Review, els only gradually
being realized by the nations, the British pub
lie being the last to grasp it.
The presidents diplomacy conferred In the
idea of peace without victory. Naturally this
was vastly popular in Berlin 1t was precisely
what the Germans wanted, and they themselves
could not have stated the matter better. But
the allies would not have it SO. They would not
admit Germany as charter member OF the
league They insisted also that she should pay
for part Of the damage she had done. In these
respects and others they overruled the presi
dent and instead of peace without a victory de
manded peace of justice and right. The con
tention of the allies triumphed in the end, but
not until after waves Of bitter resentment
against America as presumably endorsing the
presidents ideas had swept England, Italy,
Belgium, France and Greece. The foreign press
has now come to understand the matter better
and blames the presideX b ID not the people Of
the United States ~

 Dissatisfaction here with the situa- ton resulted in opponents of the gov ernment, including a priest, drawing up a proclamation declaring Posen' s independence of Russia and Austrian Poland. A member of the government arrived and secretly conferred with those who drafted the proclamation and reached a compromise. Officials say there is still much dis content prevalent due chiefly to depre- citation in the value of Polish money.

 Speaking here this afternoon, Mir Roosevelt said:
 T was amused by two Republican newspapers in my home state. One of them came out the day after Harding was nominated and said Thank God, Harding is against the league of na- tions.' The other on the same day. declared Thank God, Harding is for the league of nations"
 Later he said: You people on the coast are close enough to San Fran. cisco to know that no Democratic plat form plank was mysteriously lost down an elevator shaft"
 At Centralia, MT. Roosevelt paid tribute to Centralia's Armistice day victims, who, he said, gave their lives for the cause of Amerfcanism and he declared the government would stamp out those who seek to destroy it. MT Roosevelt classed the American legion as an organization whose constitution displays the true American spirit.
