THE SCENE IS SHIFTED.

From the Conference to the Senate chamber the scene of action for the Arms Conference is about to be shifted The formal work of the delegates has been completed and all that remains for them to do is to organize the machinery for carrying out the commitments of the Conference.
 What the Senate will do in tl>e matter of ratfy- ing the treaties matter of serious debate. While the Administration leaders claim to have sufficient votes lined up to assure ratification their strength is not so overwhelming to leave them from un- easness as to what might be brought forth by de velopments Senator Underwood, of the Amer ican delegates to the Conference and Democratic leader in the Senate several weeks ago said tha he was assured of IA Democratic supporters to the commitments. Off that basis it would be necessary for the 60 Republican Senators to for them to insure passage of a resolution Of ratification Democratic Senators a rule, however, have been chary abCut committing themselves the subject and thero is very little to go in forming estimates as to their probable lineup in the final vote Send- Borah, who early announced his opposition to the Four-Pcwer Pacific treaty, claims that sufficient op- position is forthcoming defeat it, probably count
 ing all except the fl Democratic supporters claim by Underwood, and than ten Republicans
 Some Washington observers believe that the factor which is being watched closest of all, and that is causing more uneasness than anything else is the attitude of former President Wilson. Every few day report originates in Washington that he has 'le it be known that he is opposed to the Pacific treaty But all such reports lack vertifcation IL is gener- ally admitted that should lie out n opposition to it or any ether of the commitments of the Con ference. his opposition would defeat. MT. Wilson, however, remains silent and there is good believe that he will not seek to influence the outcome in any manner leaving the senators to be guided by the dictates Of their judgments and conscences

rovement for all classes for the ages up to about
 ,e 40 fer and age 50 for women, except for
 Negro population. Above these ages no improve ent shown and in some cases the mortality at the
 der ages in 1910 was actually less favorable than it
 in 1901.
 An examination of the infant mortality tables ndicate decided improvement in the infant nor tllity in classes of the population between 1901 and 1910. The expectation of life of children born in 1910 shows considerable improvement over he expectation of life of children born in 1890 and
 901 in practically all classes Of the population. The infant mortality in the rural districts consid
 rably lower than that in the urban districts beth in 1901 and 1910, but the difference in favor of the ural districts not great in 1910 it in
 901, indicating that the efforts improve mortality success
 Life tables also given by sex for Australia, Denmark England, France Germany, Holland, India Italy, Japan, Norway, Sweden, and Switzerland They may be used to compare of mortality and ex- pectations of life at any age in country with hose of any other country with those in the United States. A comparison with these countries shoWs that except for France India and Japan, the rates of mortality among and are less favorable in this country than in the foreign coun- .ries above mentioned. For example the lowest an rual rate of mortality thousand at birth found n Norway to be about 81 for males and 67 for fe- males while for similar class in this country name y white people it is about 127 for males and females. This indicates that there is still room for improvement in this country.

Our Own Pledge in Siberia.
New York Post ]

Mr. Hughes could have found ample justification in history for insisting upon definite date for the Japanese withdrawal from Siberia. It is Toko's con tentOn that her troops must remain in Siberia until the maintenance of public order by stable govern ment is assured But foreign occupation has a way the rise of stable governments whereas the end ot foreign occupation has often produced the opposite effect. Ireland is the most recent example No set clement there would have been possible if the British Government had insisted retaining its troops until the Irish state had given proof of it's capacity. Mr Hughes put the bluntly enough when he quoted the text Of his note to Japan of last May NContinued occupation of the strategic centres in eastern Siberia tends rather to increase than to aay the unrest and disorder in that regiOn'
 But though MT. Hughes did not find it possible O. eXpedent to press upon Japan fixed date for evacuatng Siberia, there is real compensation in the fact that he has written into the records of the ference the definite pledge tion. And the signfcanct feature is that the pledge preserve Russias territorial integrity runs as def- ntely against ourselves it does against Japan. Mr Hughes statement makes it just incumbent upon the United States to continue to press for the evacuation of Siberia it is incumbent upon Japan to evacuate. MT Hughes accepted for the United States it's full share of responsibility for the orig inal entry of Allied troops into Siberia. Since We responsible for bringing the Japanese in are morally responsible for getting the Japanese out. More than for any other of the participants in the conference if will be right and our duty in the future to keep on asking Tokio about Siberia.
 The Shidehara pledge contains the promise of evacuation 'as as' conditions will permit The Hughes statement reiteraes the expectation of this Government that Japan will find it possible te eyacuate Siberia within the near future" To see that the near future does not itself prolonged into an indefinite future is the least owe to the Russian people.

The Trade of Murder.

 In the old days the West and Southwest were notorious for their and their indiscriminate killings. There for such condi- ton in the circumstances. Those pioneering days the days of quest and conquest when the East travelled towards the lands of the setting sun in search of homes and fortunes. Lawessness was inevitable. The strong hand had make it's own law until docency and order imposed by the force of the rea builders of civilization But for years the gamblers and gunmen the wasres and

AL SMITH ASKED TO OPPOSE HEARST.

Declaring that the growing campaign for Hearst for United States Senator from New York is danger ous to Democratic prospects for winning the in this yesTs elections Judge Samuel Seabury, former Judge of the Court of Appeals and Democratic Guber material candidate in 1916 has issued an open appeal to former Governor Al Smith to assume the lead of the Democratic party in the state. Mr. Smiths fine record Governor of New York and his showing in the 1920 election enttle him to a place of promin- not only in the State of New York but in the Democratic partys national organization. His in fuence is undoubtedly be reckoned with if he but chooses to use it.
 When MT. Smith left the Governorship and re turned to New. York City, he said that he quit ting the political arena and would devote himself to private business His response to Judge Seabury s appeal has been along the lines and reteraton of desire to be left alcne. There little ind- cation that this desire will be recognized His popu- larity with the of New York voters is pro- nounced to go Wnoticed Should he change his mind and the race, he is likely give earsts reputed senatorial ambitions hard jolt if Smith should be nominated he can be counted on to give Senator Calder who up fer reelection, the fight of his life and it is not improbable that Smith would be elected

Regular Army Officers.
(Denver News ]

Congress proposes to reduce in rank many hun. dreds of regular army officers, to cut their pay and otherwise reward them for high service at the front or elsewhere thus presumably make them still prouder because il always is possible make sacrifice for ones country.
 Colonel in the regular army gets about the same pay that given the commanding officer of a foorwaking brigade in big store The fact that he up against machine gun nests slept in dug outs, fought Germans and endured rats and other Yermin seemingly counts for nothing. Congress or at any rate. some of it's influential leaers thinks that the army officer is overpaid and that the wounds and hardshps of service have won him no rights to the consideration of the people There are tears for the stacker and jeers for the soldierif he happens be a regular.

THE UNITED STATES LIFE TABLES.

The Deparement of Commerce, through the Bureau of the Census announces that the pub
 cation life tables from births deaths and populations in this country is be issued These tables show conditions they existed in 1S90 in 1901, and in l910 thus making it possible to study the changes which have taken place in mortality during two decades.
 It is shown that mortality at practically all ages is higher among men than among women. In par ticular 1t appears that the most favorable mortality in this country is found among living in the rural districts The rural classes rega rdess sex enjoy much lower mortality for nearly the entire range of life than those living in the cities While the expectation of life both among men and women in most classes has steadily increased is no in- dcation of any definite lengthening of the span of life In other words while almost all classes of persons are living 10 an older age the limit ing age cf human life does to have advanced.
 In 1901 the expectation of life among white fe- males at birth about three years more than among white makes. and in 1910 the in favor of the females had increased to almost three half years. There seems 10 have been general m-
