FILIBUSTER AGAINST YAP
TREATY BEA TEN IN SENA TIE

to Japan which we want outside of the
cable station at zap, because everybody
knows that some twenty odd years ago.
at the close of the Spanish h-American
war. when we took the Philippine Islands
from Spain, we could have included IN
our demands the islands which have
been inundated 70 Japan. and we could
have got them. They are really, how
ever, OF so little interest commercially
or otherwise that after the close of the
Spanish-American war. and following
our failure to demand them. Spain sold
them TO Germany for the small sum OF
$4,000, 900.
1.-THE only reason we are involved in
the situation at all is that at the close
OF the war we acquired a German cable
Our end OF it had TO land on the Island
of Yap IN order that at some future
time we may extend il to China
In answer to a question asked by Sen
ator Borah relative to what will become
OF our undivided one-fifth interest in
zap Senator Underwood said:
I'VE have not any undivided one-fifth
interest j a., heartily In favor OF the
treaty, but / entirely differ as to the
terms upon which the Secretary of State
negotiated 1t. for 1 contend there is no
undivided one-fifth interest in the ISL
and.
Sovereignty Indivisible.
"I am sure the Senator from Idaho will
agree with me that sovereignty is SOW
ereignty, and that it connot be divided.
1t would be impossible TO carry out. Sow
ereignty is the supreme essence OF gov
ernment and no two separate govern
ments can function in the same territory
at the same time except they do so with
armed forces in the field, each claiming
the right to control"
Senator Underwood said Germany could
not yield possession of the islands. Pos
session lay with the people who inhabited
them. All that Germany had was the
sovereign right OF government that she
acquired from Spain. and to say we took
an interest in the property would be un-
considerable.
Senator Johnson called attention to the
fact that in all the discussions concern
ing the Pacific islands the fact was lost
sight of that people lived upon them,
and he for one was not disposed to vail
date a claim whlsh turned them over to
the sovereignty Of Japan. The Yap treaty,
he said. acknowledged the claim of
Japan. He said Japan had bluffed this
Government and we had surrendered to
the extent of withdrawing our frontier
on the Pacific.
Senator Reed challenged the Commit
tee on Foreign Relations to have open
meetings and to summon before it the
military and naval experts to learn what
they thought concerning the effect of the
treaties upon the safety of this Govern
ment. He discussed the secret agree
ments by which, he said, Japan had Sc
cured her mandate for the Pacific ISL
ands, and declared that the zap treaty
placed American approval upon this per-
nicious system of diplomacy. He insisted
all of the conference treaties were inter-
related and should be considered stimuli
taneously.
Senator Robinson in his speech urging
defeat of the treaty, charged that the
contemplated agreement not TO fortify
our extreme possessions in the East gave
Japan complete control in the Orient.

ANNUAL SPRING FLOOD
DOING MUCH DAMAGE

Considerable damage has resulted
during the last three or four DAYS UP
and down the Connecticut Valley
from high water. The Connecticut
River began rising on Monday and
kept steady upward pace until
Thursday, when about noon it had
reached its heighth. being within two
or three feet of the record high
water mark established in the spring
of 1918. The thermometer dropped
considerable during the day Thurs
day, which probably acted as a
check, and a fall of several inches
was noted during the afternoon.
Our first intimation of the real
seriousness Of the damage being dore
was the failure of the morning train
to arrive on Wednesday, We have
had no mail from the north since
Tuesday evening no trains being
able to run north of Bradford on ac-
count Of three or four washouts be-
tween here and Wells River, the

important missing link Trains have
been able to run between here and

their regular schedule between these

COOPERATIVE MARKETING.

Remember the meeting at the
court house on thG 1Tth? The farm
ers OF Pickens or that day will take
the flrst step towards marketing their
cotton instead of dumping it as they
90 new. To-day their are two, truths
Tor US to get firmly in cur minds.
The first is from the Progressive
farmcr's platform-"T farmer is
eltltled to just as good wages for
ms labor as others get. He is en-
Titled to Just as good living condi-
tlcns Tor himself and family as others
enjoy" ~ '''' >
And the second is that the old saw
ing that "compctiicn is the lfc Of
trade" is only half truth, for with
the farmer instead of life, it is the
death OF his IT, le. In a highly or
ganizcd business with it's efficient
Dock Keeping, it is impossible to tell
at any moment whether it is nov;n~
or not, and when losses appear to
withdraw from the field, leaving it
TO othe.s, and push those that do
show profit. Some will find them.
selves peculiarly fitted for some
prhnch OF wcrk, others for something
olttercnt; but competition has placed
SVcfy man where he is especially cf-
iicient, and thus it is the life Of this
Kind CT trade.
But q farmers work spreads over
a long time. From the time lie
plants until he reaps, the costs and
returns are an uncertainty, and even
after all is completed how few know
what the profit CT loss is. With this
utter lack of knowledge Of cost he
goes to market, and there comes into
competition with ether farmers as
ignorant on this point as he is. The
inevitable result is that some will
sell for any kind of price offered.
Even if one knows what a fair price
wculd be ne secs the bottom knocked
out Of the market by the reckless
dumping of some who do not know.
Competition like this has always
been the bane Of the farmer. It nc-
counts for the low prices at which
he has to sell.
AS our cotton is the chief money
crop it is natural that we should first
improve cur manner Of selling It so
that we may get q fair return for
our labor, and furnish our families
with those comforts of life enjoyed
by others. And it is for lust this
purDosc that we will meet at Pickens
on Friday the 18th. Let overv farm
er come who is not satisfied with
our present condition. C.
