- laid before the senate his seven
treaties negotiated at the Washing.
ton International Conference on
disarmament:
IF we can not join in making
effective these covenants for peace
and stamp this conference with
Americas approval, we shall dis
credit the influence Of the republic,
render future efforts futile and un-
likely, and write discouragement
where today the world is ready to
acclaim new hope. Either these
treaties must have your cordial
sanction or every proclaimed desire
to promote peace and prevent war
becomes a hollow mockery. Your
government encouraged and has
signed the compact which it had
much to do in fashioning. If to
these understandings for peace, if
to these advanced expressions Of
the conscience Of leading powers,
if to these concords to guard
against conflict and lift the burdens
Of armament, If to all these the
senate will not advise consent, then
it will be futile to try again.
It might have been President
Wilson talking to the senate when
he submitted the Versailles peace
treaty negotiated after the war and
signed by all the nations concerned
in it and ratified by all of them,
except the United States. Mr..
Harding was the senator and did
his full part with the other repub-
lican senator's in wrecking the
treaty submitted to the senate by
his predecessor. History seems to
repeat itself. Anyone who reads
the reports of the discussion on the
four power Pacific treaty must be
carried back in memory to the dis
cussions of the Versailles treaty.
The same arguments are hurled
against this treaty that were hurled
against the League of Nations. The
same charges Of secrecy and bad
faith and deceit, and hidden menace
in its terms are made that were
made in the case of the other
treaty. The only difference is that
some republicans who were de-
nouncing the other treaty are advo-
eating this one, and some democrats
who favored the Wilson treaty are
opposing the Harding treaty. Also
the democrats are not quite so solid
in partisan opposition to the Hard
ing treaty as the republicans were
solid in opposing the Wilson treaty.
But we have the same irreconcil-
able bunch, Borah. Johnson, Reed
and few others, loud in opposition
this time as they were before, and
seeing ghosts in the language Of the
treaty that scare them to death
and makes them fear for the life Of
the republic if the treaty Is con- !
firmed. President Harding is per-
fectly right when he says that if
the senate blocks confirmation of
the treaty it will be useless for the
powers Of the republic
to negotiate any international
treaty in the future. IL is to be
regretted that this did not occur
to him sooner, say when a demo-
cratic president was in the White
House. But, while he has been a
little late in coming to the realiza-
tion of great truth, it is truth
none the less, as the president says.
We think in the end it might be
4 good thing II this congress could
be persuaded to clip the power of
the senate over treaties by submit
ting m amendment to the constitu-
kion which would permit the con-
Eirmation of treaties by majority
vote in the senate inataad az = fyvo.

wOodmen Circle Entertained.

The most interested members of
the Woodmen Circle met in regular
session on the third Friday and were
highly entertained by the Clerk, Mrs.
Heuck. An added feature for the
program of the afternoon was the
exquisite music rendered by the
Grove Musician. Mrs. Yawn.
After the business part Of the
meeting was closed the merriment
began, when the clerk asked those
present to guess the number Of salt
-ed peanuts in glass container.
When they had tried their. luck at
guessing it was announced that Mrs.
Holmes had come nearer the goal,
and she was honored with a lovely
cut glass butter-dish, given by the
clerk.
: While they were still. admiring
the gift, all were given a chance to
show their strength by carrying pea
nuts on knife blade across the
hall. There Was much Laughter a.
bout this, but Mrs. James so calmed
herself that she reached the other
side with the most peanuts on her
knife, and for so doing received a
beautiful sherbet dish, also given by
the clerk.
The members who attend regular
ly always leave the hall radiant with
profit and pleasure, gained from the
meeting, and anxiously await the
next meeing.

Asks $4,000 For New Tomato
Variety.


A rather unique law suit has been
filed in the Federal court at Jackson,
having been transferred from the
chancery court of Cepiah county
when the defendant corporation en-
tered a nonresident plea.
The plaintiff in action is Walter
Richards, a substantial former of
Copiah county, who brings suit for
alleging that the defendants have
failed to compensate him for new
variety of tomato seed developed by
him and turned over to the D. M.
Perry nursery to be grown and mar
keted.
1t is contended that the variety of
tomato seed in question is peculiar
ly adapted to this climate, and well
worth the amount for which judg-
ment is sought.

AVERAGE LIFE WILL Be
INCREASED FOUR YEARS

Chicago, May a. Omitted Press)-
Here is CHEEKY news for the unfortun-
ates who have been standing on the
brink of the happy hunting grounds.
We are to have an extra four years
of life. Science base fixed things by
eliminating or reducing the toll Of
various diseases, The health stand
ard has been so raised that the av-
erages man and woman in a civilized
community will live four years longer
than the lifetime period Of ten years
ago; four years that had been unex-
pected,I 1,479 golden days pilfered
from the bearded old gentleman with
the scythe. ~.
Statistics clinching the joyous It'd
ings of science were presented at the
National Fraternal Congress repre-
senting a total membership of 1O,-
100000. 1t was further shown that
as a result of the great advance of
medical science in preventing disease
which formerly wrecked portion OF
the population, children born this year
will live at least six years longer
than we do.
Deaths from typhoid and diptheria
once considered plaques, are reduced
to dull statistical reports and in ten
years deaths from these diseases the
medical experts declared, will almo.t
disappear.

SEED DEMONSTRATIONS
CONSIDERED SUCCESSFUL

The series of potato seed traeating
demonstrations, arranged by the Bel
trami County Farm Bureau and put
on by R. C. Rose, extension pathol..
ogist of the University Of Minneso-
ia, was completed Wednesday even
ing. Six meetings were held, at Spur
Turtle River, Grant Valley, Pinewood,
Jones and Northern. Splendid inter-
est was shown and the meetings
were we'll attended in spite of the
busy season. !
The hot formaldehyde method of
treating seed potatoes was discussed
clearly at each meeting, showing that
this method is more rapid as we'll as
being cheaper than the corrosive
sublimate method, and is effective
against the same diseases. These
demonstrations were not put on with
a view to discouraging the use of
corrosive sublimate but were offer
ed to those farmers who have a large
quantity of seed to treat and with
whom time is an important factor.
Farmers who are using the cor.
rosive sublimate method are equipped
to treat their seed in this manner
are urged to stay by it.

SCHOOL TEACHER SHOT
WHILE PUPILS LOOK ON
Jealous Lover Kills Teacher
and ThenA ttempts to Hold II
Up Bank Employees
(Bys United Press)

Northwood, Iowa, May "A little
country school house near Manley
was closed today while the coroner's
jury viewed the body of Miss Rebec-
ca Nelson, shot to death by a jealous
lover while terrifier pupils looked
On. Irving Bonker confessed he shot
her in jealous rage.
"She turned me down." Bonker
told the sheriff. He claimed they had
been engaged to be married. She
promised to go to a party with him
that evening. During the day he re-
ceived a note saying she was going
with someone else. Bonker will be
held for the grand jury on charge
Of first degree murder.
Bonker entered the little school
room late yesterday and handed Miss
Nelson revolver he had carried
during the world war. He asked her
to shoot him. She refused. Then he
grabbed the gun and shot her through
the head. She died instantly. Bon
ker then ran out and jumped into
a car and drove to Manley and went
into the Farmers State bank there
and ordered the employees to hold up
their hands. When they refused he
pulled the trigger, but the gun did
not discharge.

BEVERlDCE BEATS new

indianapolis, May 4-"Beveridge
for president in 1924" was the bat
tie cry Of the Hoosier Bull Moose to-
day, flush from the victory of their
leader over Harry S. New.
Messages Of congratulation receiv-
ed by Beveridge from former Bull
Moose leaders convinced his close
followers that if he is successful in
defeating Samuel Ralston, democrat
in the November election his candi-
dacy for president would receive
widespread support from organiza-
lions of both parties. Practically COM
plete figures on the election show
Beveridge winner by a. litss5ority of
10000. The vote, with
14O precincts out of 1882 yet to
be heard from was Beveridge 1877
1888 and New 168,753
The old guard Republicans sup
porting New in looking for the cause
of the startling defeat of the senator
for denomination centered their
blame on James Watson, the other
Indiana senator Watson's ambition to
control the Republican organization
in Indiana and not divide the con-
troll with New, as he has been doing
caused him to knife his colleague,
New supporters claimed
