When Governor Cox accused the

ten. How Michigan was Newberry-
lied is a matter of political, finan-
cial, judicial and criminal record.
In 1918 the task set for the gold
diggers was the election of con-
gress opposed to the president of
the United States. Michigan was a
weak spot in the line, owing to the
candidacy of Henry Ford. To gain
control of the senate all republican
seats had to be kept and several
democrats displaced. A supreme
effort in behalf of Truman H. New
berry was therefore necessary in
Michigan, and. as it turned out, his
purchased election was what gave
the republicans a majority. enabled
them to pack the committee on for,
eign relations against the league of
nations and made it possible for
Mr.. Lodge to burke the treaty of
peace.
Persons whose memory is good
will recall the fact that when Mr..
Ford complained that the election
had been bought, Mr.. Newberry
and all his agents were as vocifer-l
Gus in their denials as Chairman
Hays and Treasurer Upham now
are. They said the charges were
preposterous. They Threatened
counter-exposures. They made
light of indictments and sneered
at the law. Yet Senator Newberry
and sixteen others were found gull

Judge who sentenced them said :;

And so the allies deserted us and
made separate peace with Ger
EImany, while the United States SEN
| ate remained true to the ideals OF
the war by refusing to ratify the
! treaty and adopting the Knox res
olution? And Senator Lodge thinks
| there are voters who are weak

\ preposterous nonsense?
| We should not think of accusing
Senator Lodge of having been in
consistent in regard to the treaty
'of peace, because his record
throughout has been consistently
crooked. To use. a New England
/ figure of speech, a snake could
not follow the Lodge trail without
breaking its back.
1t was in October, 1917, accord
ing to his own statement, that Sen
ator Lodge delivered the speech,
atferward printed in the Forum,
in which he said:
1--WE cannot make peace except
in company with our allies, 1t
would brand US with everlasting
dishonor and bring ruin to us also
if Io,.tD Dn1y 10 oh

The chairman of the senate COM |
mittee on foreign relations now ex-
plains! that this warning was ut
tered because ''at that time voices
were heard not only here but else
where suggesting that the United
States should make, a separated
peace" Whose voices? What
voice? What responsible political
leader, either democrat or repub-
lican, ever suggested a separate
peace? What public man, what
newspaper, ever urged a separate
peace? There was not a suspicion
Of public sentiment anywhere in
the United States in favor of a

Senator Lodge was right when
he said it would brand us with

eparate peace, and at the time
vas true when he said it. 1t was
rue when he voted for separate
,eace with Germany, and it is true
low when he pretends that it was
he allies and all the associated
that made the separate

There is no longer any intellec-
ual integrity whatever in Henry

the shells on. When cooked the shells open and it is easy to get the inside out, which is put on string like beads and hung in the sun to dry, kept in dry place and eaten when wanted. The native people are very fond of clans.
 In the spring time of the year we gather black seaweed off the rocks at low tide. This is spread on the cloth and dried in the sun. When it is dried it is pressed into cakes and put up for the winter It is packed in box with young cedar boughs. There is different kind of seaweed which is called the ribbon weed. This is gathered in the same place as the black seaweed. The rbbon seaweed is dried in the sun. When it is dried it is packed away in bags or boxes and this will keep any length of time during the winter if it is kept in a dry place.
 When the black seaweed is used for food it is chopped up into small pieces as fine as you want it. Uusally it is boiled with the juice of clans and little grease added to give d better flavor just as people of today use vanilla to give flavoring to cakes, candies, etc.
 Dried hemlock sap is another na- tive food obtained by removing tle bark from trees. This is done ir the spring. After one gets enough of the sap he digs hole in the ground and puts hot stones into the hole. The sap is then put in and covered with skunk cabbage and hot coals or a little fire is built on top of it over night. In the morning it is dug out and dried in the sun. After it is half dry it is pressed into cakes very much like sea-weed, then put out in the sun to dry again until it is as hard as hardtack. After it is dry it is ready to be stored
 During the winter when the na- lives wish to cook the hemlock sap it is first soaked in cold water, then it is put into a kettle of boiling water and favored with grease. After it cooked enough it is removed from the fire and served ready to eat.
 These are common foods that most of the old native people use and are very fond of. The food of the white people can never take it's place with the Alaskan native.-Christine Bates. a Native Girl, in Sitka Verstovian.

NATIVES HOUSE
 THEIR FOOD
 FOR WINTER

The native people of Alaska have food very different from the food the white people use They gather ber- ries, sea weed, game and other Alas kan products and store them for use in the winter Clans, fish and all sea foods are used in a way. that will preserve them for use during the winter months when it is cold and food cannot be obtained. These are some of the methods used for stor- ing and preserving native food:
 Meat is stored for the winter by taking slice of meat two inches thick, foot long and a foot wide. length and make them about the 1 size of lead pencil; sharpen these sticks at one end and run them cross wise through the meat about five inches apart. Have stronger stick l to hold up this amount of meat Run l this stronger stick right across the center 1engthwise of the meat by bending the meat back and forth un- til the stick is thruogh. Then it is ready to be roasted before a direct fire.
 Fish may be prepared in the same way and all kinds of game, such as wild ducks, geese, ptarmigan and grouse. They are boiled also.
 By slicing both meat and fish we can dry and smoke them. The fish is cleaned, then sliced and hung out in the sun to dry with little fire un- der to smoke it. Meat is prepared in the same way. After they are dry, cut in small pieces and boil When they have boiled enough, it is put into herring or seal oil which we'll keep it any length of time. Usually it is put up for use during the winter.
 Wild vegetables such as parsnips and sweet potatoes are found in this country and used for food. They are usually boiled.
 We also dry certain kinds of ber- rfes such as soap berries and blueber- ries. First the berries are boiled thick and then put on a tray about six feet above the fire to dry. After the fruit is dried it is pressed into cakes. Some berries, such as high bush cranberries and lagoon berries are put into a can of fish oil and put away for the winter use. Any kind of berries may be put in oil but some will not keep as long as others. If they are kept in cool, dry place it will keep them any length of time.
 Blueberries may be cooked and put into jars, which is very common to both native and white people.
 Clans are one of the common food used by the native people. When the tide goes down they go and dig the clans. Whn they get all they want they take them home and boil with
