WILSON FACES
HIS HARDEST
FIGHT ALONE
Beaten, Deserted, He Must
Prove Stronger Than All
Parties Combined.
SCORNED ANY ADVICE
Now Responsibility for the
Treaty's Failure Rests on
President Alone.
px ROBERT T. BARRY.

Woodrow Wilson stood yesterday
at the threshold of the greatest
struggle of his political career. HIS
supreme test confronts him at q
time when Washington, at least,
regards his influence as being at its
lowest ebb. well-meaning advisers
sought to warn him to beware OF
the ides of November. Like an
other before him. he has turned a
deaf ear.
Mr.. Wilson's party associates In
both houses of Congress have shak-
en- of the yoke OF his dictation.
That is admitted in all quarters of
the Capital. They have learned to
walk alone. The treaty vote in the
Senate, Friday night. was the off,
cial breaking of his strangie- hold
on the Democrats there. His party
associates in the House previously
had Haunted him on universal mali
tary training.
Striking Comparison Neted.
The White House reception, with
fil-concealed bad temper. of the
treaty the President was convinced
he would force the Senate to ratify
on his terms. was compared with
the brass band demonstration that
ATTENDED its presentation to the
Senate last July. The President has
the treaty back. He is further from
his goal than ever. and Washington
recalled that It was just a year ago
Mr.. Wilson boasted of his power over
lCongress. At a White House lunch
for the Democratic National Com
mittee. he told how he would bend
tSenators of both parties to his will
l-"hang them on sibbets as high as
heaven. but pointed in the other
direction" il they dared to oppose
him. Even his stanchest support
ers could not wax, enthusiastic yes
terday over his success as a political
hangman.
! ~It Cant BE Done.-
The struggle now begins in earn
est before the people, Open fight
ing supplants the trench warfare of
political sniping in the Senate. Mr..
Wilson, sulking in his tent yester-
day had a complex war map before
him. First. he must force the Demo-
cratic party to an acceptance of his
ideas on the treaty. He must con-

Colossal Crime Asan}st {

New Haven, Conn, March 2o.--
THE defeat of the treaty is a colos-
sal crime agains. our own. country

declared in an interview here to-
day. "a. -.-s..
"If we allow a minority of the
Senate to dictate the policy of the
Senate on this momentous question.
we betray democracy and turn our
faces back toward arbitrary pow

cised by a few is scarcely less hate
full than arbitrary power as exer-
cised by one.
THE action OF the Senate is more
disgraceful because the rejection
was brought about by a union be-
tween a group of Democrats and
the irreconcilable foes of the treaty.
whom the Democrats have been de-
nouncing for eight months. II the
action of the Senate is permitted
to stand. we invite confusion ut
home and chaos abroad. But the
action of the Senate should not be
allowed to stand as the verdict Of
