Mr.. Wilson Has His Way.

The obstinacy of one man has pre-.
vented ratification of the treaty by the
senate and has thrust it upon the PEG.
pie as an issue in the campaign.
The stubborn refusal Of the presi.
dent to accept any material. reserva,
ton that should guard American
rights or interests has prolonged the
fight in the senate, has postponed fol-
another year the settling Of America s
relations with the world, has contrib.
uted to the threatening unrest and in
stability of Europe.
Mr.. Wilson's partisans in the sen
ate have been deserving him, one by
one, as the hopelessness of his in
transigence and the growing disap-
prevail of their constituents moved
them to revolt. At the end he had less
than half Of the democratic senators
with him.
Had but seven more of them de-
serted the treaty would have been
ratified and he> would haye had to
choose between the qualification Of ac-
quiesence and the further setting up
of his opinion against that of the world
by pocketing the treaty.
For, in sober truth, it was Mr.. Viii
son alone who insisted on the actual
letter of his treaty. The allies had,
in all but official fashion, indicated
their willingness to accept the Lodge
reservations. The American people
had, in various unmistakabie ways,
shown their disapproval of his resis-
lance. Some of the most loyal of his
newspaper supporters had come to adj
wise ratification with the Lodge reser-
vations.
Persistent effort has been made to
hold the Lodge leadership responsible,
to pillory the Massachusetts senator
as the dark villain who has blocked the
pathway of peace. But the steady ac-
erection to his following in the senate,
the growing support Of public opinion
as the facts become better understood,
alike proclaim him to have been right
and the president wrong.
Lodge has been the nationalist while
Wilson has been the internationalist.
Lodge has stood firmly for the safe
guarding of American rights and in

for putting them in jeopardy for the

Mamma Not Heavenly.

Strange, to stumble upon a quotation
about mamma in news Of the drug and
chemical trades! The children of Is
rael, we know, We're saved from star
walton in the desert by it., It fell from
heaven, was small like coriander seed,
and tasted like waters made with
honey.
However, the actual mama of trade
today comes from incisions in South
European trees and it is now reported
to have been quoted higher than pre-
viously in the. primary market The
demand has increased of late, espe-
cially for small flake mama, which is
the better quality, coming from the
upper part, of the stem of the tree.

The Newberry Conviction.

In an editorial the Minneapolis
Journal sums up the rd-Newberry
case in the following logical manner:
'Let US keep facts straight in the
Newberry case. Two rich men were
running for senator in Michigan-Hen-
ry Ford and Truman H. Newberry
Both Of them poured out, or permitted
to be poured out in their behalf, large
sums of money! This money was
spent, not to buy votes or corrupt
good citizenship, but for intensive
campaigning.
ut is an extensive proposition to
cover great state like Michigan in
thorough campaign that reaches every
voter. And BOTH sides spent large
sums. Henry Ford, for example, sent
reels of motion pictures all over the
state to influence votes for himself.
"Now the law forbids the spending
Of more than $3.50 for candidate
for the senate-ffty per cent of one
years salary. Mr.. Newberry was con-
victed of knowing that more than this
was spent in his behalf The evidence
was furnished, not by the prosecution,
but by King, the Newberry manager,
who frankly testified that he had told
Newberry he was spending fifty
thousand dollars. Ford spent at least
as much, but there has been no prose-
cution of Ford, presumably because he
lost the contest.
rs this law constitutional? That
remains to be seen. It has never been
tested 4 the courts, and has in fact
been more honored in the breach than
the observance. Mr.. Newberry now
purposes to ascertain whether the law
is valid. ?
"Votc-buying is a vicious practice
and should be stamped out by every
flair means. But there is no evidence
ofvote- buying in this case, and no con-
victio, on. such charge.
"And how is candidate to reach
three quarters of a million voters with
out spending far more than the amount
allotted by law? Merely to send one
to each Michigan clector would cost
fifteen thousand dollars times
the legal limit.

Our Trip to Mortified.

All the basketball boys were looking
forward to Wednesday, for that was
the day they were to start for North
field to see the game which would de-
eide the state championship in basket
ball.
Mr.. Hall, with Westling, Nelson,
Busch, Davis, Nygren and Mark com
prised the delegation.
On the way Nygren borrowed the
newsboy's. cap and fruit basket and
made some sales. The time passed
rapidly and at 3:45 we got off at Dodge
Center. At 6:03 the princeton Spe-
cial" left Dodge Center and, after
many bumps, pulled into Kasson at
6:53 The boys were then taken to
the high school, where we changed
into our basketball clothes and went
into the game. AS the P. H. S. boys
had not practiccd since February 18
they were not in the best condition.
The first half of the game showed
some good playing and Princeton came
out n top by score of 8 to 5. But
the long period Of no practice was tell
ing on our big center and forward.
The Kasson boys came back in the
third quarter determined to win, but
they failed to get ahead of the Tigers.
A few seconds before the whistle
they tied the score at 10. The game
was telling on our boys and the de-
Tense and offense were weakening.
Princeton's offense went to pieces at
the beginning of the fourth quarter.
Hardin came back on defensive in fine
style and fought hard, but Kasson's
five-men ofense was too much for our
guards with the help of all the offense.
They couldn't stop the Kasson players.
Busch was disqualified and Nygren
took his place which strengthened
Princeton on defense, so they checked
the Xasson boys to one basket in the
last few minutes of play When the
whistle blew and the smoke of battle
disappeared the score stood 20 to 49,
The boys took the 7:15 train out of
Kasson at $3.50 and arrived in Owa-
tonna too late to make connections.
We had dinner and took the 1:22 train
to Mortified. The train was crowded
so we rode in the dining car.
We went from the depot to- the
Sayes-Hill gym, where the games
were being played. Faribault had one
of the best teams at the conference
but had some hard luck by losing their
best guard with sprained ankle.
They played in the semi-fnals but were
defeated by Mankato. Faribault had

Wing took the state championship by
defeating Mankato. The trophy was
a silver basketball of regulation size
mounted on bronze base. South high

The boys arrived home on Saturday
evening. The team enjoyed the trip
and takes this means to thank the

On the face of the tax receipts,
Treasury officials estimate that the
American people will spend a billion
dollars for candy this year. Twenty
cents a pound for sugar is scandal
lous. That is a necessity. One dollar
and twenty-five cents for a pound of
candy is a luxurious self-indulgence.
One consolation is that the dollar
crop is larger than we before and
the people have the cash to pay for
candy and their credit is good for
sugar. Eat and grow sweet.

WOMEN ARE BEST AUTOISTS,
SAYS TRIFFI COFFICER.

Boston, Mass. women are the
best drivers on the road. They think
quickly. keep their heads, and obey
signals. They never give me any
trouble and they surely know how to
manage a car"
This is the verdict OF ROBERT Mac
Loed, smiling traffic police officer at
fremont and Boylston streets. He
guides the destinies of thousands of
cars each day and waves countless
crratic pedestrians into the zone of
safety.
Perhaps Office McLeod's smile may
have something to do with his high
rating of the weaker sex, because he
mixes It frequently with more official
signals. Good nature is the watchword
of this guardian of the heaviest traffic
in Boston.
People are easy to manage except
on Saturday afternoons" officer Mac
Leod declares. Regular city folks who
ONE i'm every day understand the

from the country they disregard every
known signal. There are more acct
dents from such carelessness than in
all other days of the week"
