hope for his death. When Mckln-
ley was shot down, when Garfield was
shot, was there a democrat but eX-
pressed sorrow? Has anyone seen
words of sympathy for the president
in any republican paper? A great
man is sick, a great mind and a great
character, and they have whispered,
We've got him now
Men sometimes disparage ideal

asses who do so, and they do it be-
cause they are coarse-grained, but
the idealists point the way and cheer

IF the republicans elect the pres

do is to make explanations, but the
democrats will enter the fight with
something definite.
LET US do as St. Paul said he had
done: Fight the good fight and keep

BIG GAB-FEST; WORLD WEPT.
John Sharp Williams Says Senate's
Action History's Disgrace.

Jackson, Miss, March 26.-Declar-
alton by Senator John Sharp Will
liams, of Mississippi, that defeat of
the league of nations more than any
thing in my life made me come near
er doubling the cause of democracy,
sometimes almost in the providence
of God HIMSELF enlivened a joint
session of the legislature here today.
Senator Williams in his address
said:
Il am just from Washington where
1 have listened ad nauseum to the
most confused gab-fest in the history
of the world since the Maker created
it. I do not see how any man who
loves his country can look with un-
concern on what has just occurred.
But the trouble is, we don't seem to
know what we want to do while the
continent of Europe is in chaos.
Chance for America.
"There was a chance for the United
States to stand at the head of a coun-
Gil of nations of the world; to lead
the universe in the pathways of peace.
The opportunity was rejected and fu-
ture historians will refer to the last
two years as the time of the great
conspiracy that the history will be
discreditable to some, especially in
the American congress.
"America went to war not because
it wanted to, but because it was ne
cessity. We preached to our boys at
home and in France that this war was
being fought that wars might be no
more. We looked on the sufferings
of Belgium and Serbia and resolved
what we would do when the war was
over. Then it finally was over, and
we have done nothing. So far as we
are concerned it appears we are will
ling to go back to 1914, before it all
began.
1.-The long-winded arguments in the
senate were like fiddling as Rome
burned, talking with world in cha
os. Do you blame me for saying that
I would rather be a dog and bay the
moon than to spend one, minute in
the senate after the expiration of my
term of office?
Opposed His Plans.
"The great conspiracy commenced
when the president went to Versail-
les. and every time news came from
Versailles that the president advo-
Gated or opposed something the con-
spirators opposed his plans. They
are two-by-four politicians. I call
them that because that is what they
are, no matter how high their sta
tions.
Senator Lodge is the head of the
poison squad, and after the treaty
had been emasculated with reserVa-
tions that no democrat could accept
he sought to blame the party for its
rejection.
HAS any great institution found
ed by our forefathers fallen down at
the time of stress and travail like
the senate has fallen down?
Democrats Express Sorrow.
Il believe there are men now glad
that the president is sick, perhaps
