Of II years bent over a tub filled
with bottles in a Denver drug store.
There were holes in his shirt,
matches in his worn knickerbockers
HIS shoes were the worse from

But he whistled chccrily as he
vaehpd bottles, his hands red from

turned 20 the senate recently by n
majority sufficiently large to be
hailed rs n republican victory at the
end OF closely contested campaign

administration were made the issue.
His First Appointment.
Bursum's first entry into the sem
ate was when he was appointed by
Governor Mechem of New Mexico as
the successor OF Secretary of the In
terror Albert y. Fall on March II.
Strangely enough. Bursum and Fail
were political enemies. and Fall op-
posed Bursum's selection TO fill his
unoXplrcd term when he entered the
presidents cabinet.
Bursum's appointment was con-
strued by his friends, however, as a
fitting reward for his activity in New
Mexico politics for a quarter of a
century His success I'm the recent
special election which returned him

years was regarded by them as addi-
uonal proof Of his popularity with
the people OF his state; for, recog-

"progressives' of his own party OF

Treaty Signed in Berlin.

BERLIN, Aug. q ASSOCIATED Press)
Friendly relations between the gov
eminent of Germany and the United
States, which were interrupted on Feb.
3, 1917, were to be restored by the sig
nature OF the treaty of peace between
the two nations here today. Arrange
ments for the event were completed yes
terday and it was decided that the chief
figures in tOday's ceremony would be
Ellis Loring Dresel. United States COM
missioner here, and DR.. Friendrich
Rosln, German foreign minister who
would atfiX their signatures to the con-
vention.
Immediate resumption of diplomatic
relations between Germany and the
United States was to be provided for,
but it was understood that matters per-
tanning to commercial, economic and fl
nancial affairs were to be settled in
supplementary agreements.
For the first time since the peace ne
gotiations have been in progress, the
newspapers of Berlin are giving the sub
iect extended consideration, apparently
much TO the embarrassment of the gov
eminent, which hitherto has succeeded
in keeping all discussion out of the pub
lie prints
Editorial comments have been wholly
noncommittal, but they have concurred
in expressing satisfaction over the pros
Dect of early resumption of friendly re-
latlons with the last of the nations
which were either active beligerents, or
with which diplomatic intercourse was
interrupted.
The Freiheit, Independent Socialist
organ. welcomes the impending peace
in the interest of the working classes,
and expresses belief that the Reichstag
will not oppose ratification of the
treaty with the United States.
The Tageblatt declares it has learned
that the treaty would provide ample re.
servations respecting the safeguarding
Of German private property in the
United States, the Washington govern
ment merely claiming the right of ere
tention until claims against Germany
have been satisfied. confidence is ex-
pressed bv the newspaper that these
claims viii be met by the German gov
eminent without the necessity of con-
verting the private property of German
subjects into cash.
