Senators With UOlic.
Oregon Journal.)

Oregon Journal)
 The rreconcilables are quibbling over a ton which declares that action be taken by the United States under the fourp treaty not authCrZed by the constitution.
 It is much ado about nothing. No specific action is provided for in the treaty other than that the nations involved shall communicate with each ther and determine the most efficient measures } be taken jointly or separately to resist aggres- That binds government to action other than oh as that government itself shall determine upon.
 If President wanted to, he would not dare take lion not warranted by the constitution of the United -ates If he did, he would be subject to impeach- ent. That would be memorable alternative that -ould keep him within constitutional bounds.
 Nor would any President take action under the cur-power treaty unless backed by the overwhelming eminent of the American people And the Ameri- a people would be very slow to approve action of Il unconstitutional or extraordinary character They V0uld not approve any act of war unless there was pie and undoubted cause.
 Nor would a President enter upon any nterna- iana enterprise that might lead to war without ome understanding win the Senate. He would have depend upon that body to declare through which he would be authorized to carry on war. rle would have to depend upon the Senate for the rants of money with which to fight In the face 2f already exisng constitutional provisions it is nantile for Senators to seek to load the treaty down with their whims, and their distempers and their colics.
 The moral strength of the treaty is it's best effect The fear by nations of what the United States might dc in of aggressons against territory included in the treaty is the greatest of all deterrent niu- ences in preventing such aggressons. To saddle the treaty with reservations bind Presidents hand and foot would be to rob the pact of its most powerful influence.
 What is more, the haggng and quibbling and ha1rsplitting and jockeyng and pettifogging by the Senate takes away the confidence of sgnatory powers in what America could be depended upon to do in carrying out the terms of the and that extent, undermnes the work of the Washington con ference It has similar effect upon other nations by giving them the impression that the Unied States is hesitating, distrustful and not all be de- pended upon in looking to the peace of the world
 The British people found it necessary after a long experience, clip the wings of their house of lords The present ambitions of the Senate to exercise powers that under the constitution on the Presi dent of the United States may ultimately make it advisable to put that body where it belongs

MIR. PAUL AND THE FISHERIES.

MT Paul in his argument favor of aboshing the salmon traps stressed the principal thing to be gained opportunity for the native hshermen to make enough money in the sixty days or so of the salmon to support them for the other ten months of the year. He contended that they could do that in the days before the traps became so numerous but that it is impossible. He declared that the fisheries afforded the Indians of Alaska their only of Livelihood
 Let us suppose Mir Paul's theory accepted Would it be good thing for the Indians whom all of us are very anxious developed into citizens who may fit into and become an important part of the civilization the North? Ise condition that would permit of three months of very profitable activity and nine ten months of dleness one that would count for development strong and useful citizens?
 The great thing in connection with the develop ment of the Indians of Alaska is to find work for them or for them to find work, during q longer season than that occupied by the salmon run. Let said for initiative of the Alaska Indians that they are, in a large measure, solving that question for themselves Many of them in most sections of Southeastern Alaska are finding profitable employ ment in many lines for a large part of the year.
 Let us go further. Can industry be maintained sound economic basis if it must pay labor enough sixty days work to support the laborers for whole year? Alaska salmon is sold in con- petition with Japanese salmon and other food pro- ducts. Is it necessary that the pack should be put up at reasonable cost? Would not cost that permits those engaged in the industry for sixty or ninety days to make sufficient profits to live upon for whole year be great the industry?
 The fact is that in spite of the of traps the cannerymen have been able to sell the packs of the last two years at profit. and many of them have gone broke Is it not plain that the industry requires the of the economical of putting up their packs?
 Let apply the Paul theory to other lines. Sup- pose, for instance that the farmers of the country had to pay harvest hands enough during the brief harvest to permit them to live the returns for the remainder of the season? What would become of agriculture in this country? What of the cost of living? The white labor that follows the harvests in season must find something else to occupy it's at tention for other periods of the year.
 what less degree to the of capital. We say somewhat less for the capital works longer than the actual fishing season. An industry that permits capital to adequate profits by working a small part of the year is not the best possible basis if there is any way to lengthen the period in which it may work. It would that the ultimate destiny of the capital organizations and equipment that engaged in the salmon canning business should be tained to pack herring and other seafoods in other seasons If those who follow the pursuit of food fish months of the at their chosen calling it would do lot toward solving the problems that confront the working people of Alaska

Several natural and legitimate influences are working to improve the lot of the farmer-in con trast to the artificial and political panaceas pro- claimed by his false friends.

1.-THE Story of Mankind"

Thucydides said, History is philosophy
learned from examples" Bolingbroke, misquot-
ing this in "On the Study and Use of History
put it much stronger when he said History is
philosophy teaching by examples"
The distinction is recommended for study to
one Henry M. Ford, he who fell for the peace
ship" extravaganza that was to get the boys "out
of the trenches by Christmas" he who said His
tory is bunk" 1t is just possible though barely
probable, that Mr.. Fords unique brand OF men,
tally may grasp the difference.
Every writer of the events and underlying
trend of history is human. All humans, except
the unreasoning or those bereft of sanity, have
some idea of what existence is for, some phil
osophy of life. Philosophy, as Paul Elmer More
aptly defines it in 1.-THE Religion of Plato" is
'the souls discovery of itself, as an entity hav-
ing law and interests of its own apart from and
above all this mixed and incomprehensble life of
the body
The relation of past events to their times and
to our day, their incidence to the ebb and flow
of the stream of life which, contrary to the nat
ural law that makes water always seek a lower
level is constantly averaging out on higher
planes. the historian interprets according to his
philosophy of life. He may claim impartiality,
