A BOOMERANG LEAGUE
ARGUMENT

The Republican Publicity Associa
tion, through its President, Hon.
jonathan Bourne, Jr. today gave
out the following statement from its
Washington Headquarters:
"a Democratic supporter OF the
league of nations covenant without
reservations complains because in
the United States Senate state
with a small population has as much
voting strength as state of large
population. His argument is that the
vote in the Senate is not, therefore
an accurate expression of popular
will. But if computation be made
based upon the number of people
each Senator represents the show
ing is even greater against the lea
que covenat.n The argument ad-
vanced by our Democratic friend is
against his own line OF reasoning.
"Since each state is represented
by two senator's, and the Senators
from a state did always vote togeth
er on the league covenant, the popp
ulation OF each state must be count
ed twice in determining how the re
presentation was recorded on the
resolution of ratification. On the
Underwood Resolution which was
to ratify the treaty as submitted by
the President, there were IS ayes
and 50 noes, four senator's being
absent and one vacancy existing.
Stated in percentages, of those
Senators who were present, All per
cent were for ratification without
reservations and 53.3 per cent were
against.
by tabulation of the vote by
states, counting the population of
each state on the side of the ques-
tion which its senators supported,
We find that 62,s65, 1884 people were
recorded for ratification without
reservations, while 139, 9,s30,655 were
against. This would show little
more than 80 per cent in favor and
sSghtly less than 20 per cent
against.
These figures are not presented
as demonstration that the people
are opposed TO ratification without
reservations in the proportion of
20 TO 80. In fact, We believe that
the people against ratification of
the treaty as submitted is even great
er than that. The only present
purpose in making the computation
is to answer the argument that the
proponents OF the league covenant
suffered by reason of equal repre-
sentation of states having equal pop
ulation. Ii each Senator had been
permitted TO cast votes in proper
tion to the number Of people he re-
presented the defeat of the treaty
as submitted would have been even
more overwhelming.
at is responsible, however, to
argue that the Senator's did in fact,
fairly represent their constituents,
except that number of Democratic
Senators voted for ratification a.
gainst their inclination and in re-
sponse to the partisan insistance of
their leader, the President. A mum
Der Of the Senators who opposed
ratification had been elected at the
preceding election, after Presidents
wilson's appeal for the return Of
Democratic Congress, 1t is hardly
to be assumed that those men were

wishes of their constituents. They
were in harmony with a large ma
jority of their people.
From whatever angle the sub
iect may be approached, the facts
and the logic are against the un-
compromising stubbornness Of the
.dvocates of the league covenant
without reservations.

HUNTERS SET
 FORTH TO GET
 BIGGEST BEAR

Jasper Park, Alta, Oct. 15.-"Old Grips awoke in his lair in the Mount Robson country this summer and found himself famous. He is declared to be the biggest grizzly ever seen in those mountains.
 Where he came from is a mystery. He made his bow to society on the headwaters of the Frazer when he rose on his hind legs behind a patch of briars and quietly surveyed at a distance of ten feet a party of berry pickers, including two women, from Tete Jaune, on the Grand Trunk Pa cific railway. The party returned to town hurriedly, leaving their pails of besries to the bear. Since then he has been seen a. number of times by miners and prospectors. He limps in his off fore foot. His injury, which is perhap ps a souvenir of some ancient encounter with a hunter, has given him his name of "O1d Crips.''
 Dr. Frank Romig, J. Paul Thomp- son and Morris Alderman, of Cleve- land, and Dr. Clarence F. Hardy, of Milwaukee, have arrived here on a hunting expedition. When they learned of the monster bear they pre- pared to invade his wilderness domain and swore they would bring back the hide of the Mount Robson monarch among their trophies. MT. Acker-

SHIP TONNAGE
 REACHES NEARLY
 THAT OF ENGLAND

Chicago, Oct. 19.-Great Britain and the United States are locked in an exciting race for world supremacy in total shipping tonnage. In the close second of the empire that for centuries ruled the seas. The United States today has 16,049,00O and the United Kingdom 1S,330,000 tons.
 This is shown in an exhaustive sur vey of world shipping facilities just concluded by the statistical depart ment of the Chicago Board of Trade. The survey was made in connection with the falling off of lake traffic dur ing the last few years. Development of lake transportation is expected greatly to facilitate distribution of the nations big grain crop, a large part of which is handled on the Chi cago Board of Trade, where supply and demand are dominating inf1u- ences.
 Despite feverish shipbuilding dur ing the war, the worlds steel steam tonnage today is 3.5O0,000 gross tons less than it would be if there had been no war, the survey shows. Great Britain is building nearly 1,50O,00O gross tons more than this country, but British holdings are still 1000 tons below the total at the outbreak of the war.
 The world gross tonnage of ST. 314,000 tons for all vessels over 100 tons is S,225,000 tons over pre-war figures. The lead of the British fleet before the war was nearly 14,000,000 tons, but this is now about 2,300,000, although in steel steamers the British lead has a margin of 4,6S6, 900 tons. America leads Great Britain in wood en steamers and also in sailing ton- mage by a wide margin.
 United States has trebled it's pre- war tonnage, but Great Britain and all other maritime nations combine d are still about 2,50O,000 tons below their 1914 figures

CRUEL PRACTICE
 IS DENOUNCED

Madrid, Oct. 1.-The practice of riding horses into the bull ring to be mutilated and tortured by maddened bulls without a chance of escape or opportunity to avoid attack is de- nounced by Ramon Gomez de Ia Serna in La Tribuna. The writer argues that the horse suffers agony from the time he enters the ring blindfolded, for he scents the bull which he cannot see and trembles and perspireS with fear.
 Senor de la Serna remarks that such a method of putting a horse to
