PRESIDENTIAL MEEK NESS.

(Bluetield Democratic Bulletin.)
There has been good deal of eff.
fort to convey the impression thai
President Wilson is startling e.;
ception in that he alone amoung our
Presidents has failed to bow humbl,
before the Senate. Such a campaign
requires very hard work because in
telligent readers with memories re.
call that among some of our recent
Presidents such humility was con-
spicuous by its absence. President
Roosevelt, for example, literally
ignoring the Senate whenever his
Jove-like disposition inclined him to dc
so. 1t has been easier to convey this
impression with regard to our ear
lier Presidents because the average
reader is vnprovided with the his
torical facts N this connection, and
so there are doubtless many Amer
leans now convinced that President
Washington was as tracablc MS q
gentle lamb, coming at call and cat
ing out of the Senate's hand in the
meekest manner.
Those converted to this temporary
persuasion may be surprised, there
fore. to hear of what happened on
August 2, 1889. According to Sen
ator Maclay's diary, President Wash
ington went on that date to the Sem
ate chamber carrying a treaty he
had made with the Cherokee Indians.
John Adams surrendered the chair to
the President, who then informed the
Senate of the purpose of visit-thc
ratification of the Cherokee treaty
and asked Vice-President Adams to
read the document. This was done
and then the Vice President called
upon the Senate to vote on the treaty
at once. Senator Maclay thereupon
moved that the consideration of the
subject be postponed. "As / sat
down." wrote Senator Maclay in his
diary. "The President of the United
States started up in a violent fret
and said: "This defeats every pur-
pose of my coming herel" Referring
to the same incident In his diary,
John Quincy Adams, who gave Will
liam H. Crawford Of Georgia rs his
authority, wrote that "when Wash
ington left the Senate chamber he
said he would be damned if he ever
went there again" And according to
the accounts he never did.

Little Hope Felt For Compromise
On Peace Treaty.

Washington, March 9.-Article ten
more than ever the dominating issue
in the peace treaty fight, became the
unfinished business of the Sente to-
day while Republican and Democratic
Senators who want the treaty ratifi-
cd worked with redoubled effort but
with fading hope for compromise.
Several of the Republican leaders,
convinced that ratification would be
impossible with their article ten re-
servation of last November unchang-
ed, agreed on substitute and made
an active campaign to linz up the
necessary Democratic votes behind
it But they did not succeed, and al
though the compromise negotiations
will continue as the question is de-
bated or the Senate floor, no one had
much hope of an agreement.

FIVE GOOD REASONS.

The political pot is beginning to
boil and bubble on Capitol HILL Dem
ocratic leaders are putting the Re-
publicans on the defensive and en-
barnssing the leaders. Majority lead
er Mondell is under fierce fire. Re-
publicans of the old progressive group
are weary of the Mondell partisan
way of doing things; they fear he
will cause q reaction against them
power in Washington next November.
u) Because the federal Offices of
the country, now largely in the hands
of Democrats, are we'll administered
and free from scandals.
(2) Because the Democratic adj
ministration conducted a successful
war against the German autocrats.
(3) Because the Democrats enact
ed more constructive and helpful leg
islation within the last eight years
than the Republicans did in the four
decades prior to their downfall ten
years ago.
(4i Because the Democratic leader
President Wilson-has the greatest
personal following of any man in
public life in the United States. Since
the death of Colonel Roosevelt the
Republicans have no leader with a
strong personal following.
(6) Because the country is prosper
Gus and the average man is having
his day.
Believing these things to be true,
Democratic workers of Congress will
take the offensive now, and be the ag
gressors in all rough and tumble po-
litical fights. If the Republicans con-
tinue to play politics, as they have
done since the Sixty-sixth Congress
convened, the Democrats will meet
them on their own ground.
There is promise of spirited war

partisans are fatally bent on making
trouble.-Glenville Democrat.

LENINE's SENATORIAL ALLIES

(Bluefeld Democratic Bulletin.)
The Republican Senators are still
playing politics with the treaty of
peace. They are still trying to nullify
the covenant of the League of Ma
tons under the form of Il resolution
of ratification.
No sooner had Senator Hitchcock
made public President Wilson's con-
ciliatory letter than Senator Lodge
brings forward in the name of the
mild rcscrvationists" n reservation
to Article X. which is far more
sweeping and drastic than the orig
inal reservation which has been the
subject of controversy for months.
This so-called compromise reserva-
ton follows:
The United States assumes no obli-
cation to preserve, by the use of it's
military or naval forces, or by the
economic boycott or by any other
means, the territorial integrity or
political independence of any other
country, or to interfere in contro-
versies between nations, whether
members of the League or not, under
the provisions of Article X, or to
employ the military or naval forces
Of the United States under any ar
ticle of the treaty for any purpose,
unless in any particular case the
Congress, which, under the Consti-
tuition, has the sole power to declare
war, shall, by net or joint resolution
so provide.
Naturally, Senator Hitchcock re-
jected it ut once, for it takes the
United States practically out of the
League of Nations except as Con-
gress may from time to time casually
and languidly assume obligations that
could as we'll be undertaken if tho
United States were not member at
all 1t is not question of the con-
stitutional power Of Congress over
the use of the military ana naval
President to use his good offices to
protect weak nation from the ag-
gressions of strong nation
Ever since Senator Lodge and his
associates discovered that President
Wilson framed the article in the
covenant which guarantees the terri
torial integrity of small nations from
external aggression they have been
determined to destroy it, regardless
of consequences. Even while they
profess to be seeking ground for a
compromise, they make their reserva-
tion to Article x. more Objectionable
than it was in any form previously
proposed.
There can be neither good faith
nor sincerity back of this conduct.
These men are trifling with civiliza-
ton. They are playing fast and loose
with the fate of the world, and if
they have any motive except to
manoeuvrc the President into q posi-
ton in which they can claim that the
responsibility for the ultimate rejcc-
ton of the treaty rests upon him,
that motive is not apparent.
More than fifteen months have
elapsed since the armistice was sign
ed. and the United States Senate still
shares with Lenne and Trotzky tho
distinction of being the most mis-
ch;cvous and maligant influence i'll
the affairs of the war-spent nations
that are still trying to struggle to
their feet and save themselves from
anarchy.-New York World.
