Washington, Feb. 5.-The clamor

Neither. in senate nor house was
a speech made Or any action taken
except with the purpose of paying
tribute to the dead.
On the senate floor, where SO
often in past years. the foreign

have been the center of bitter con-
tention, those of all parties joined
in extolling the qualities of high
idealism that guided him through
the dark days of the great war.
Lodge Speaks
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge
leader of the Republicans and arch
enemy of the league of nations
was one OF those who spoke in
praise OF Wilson, the man. He
said he felt in common with others
"a very deep sympathy" for the
sufferings of Mr.. Wilson during
his long illness, and shared the
general feeling of profound sorrow
at his death. He described the for
mer president as man of ire

character" to whose lot it had
fallen to play the leading part in

just returned to Bismarck after a

"They have a great asset, in the
face of present disturbed conditions,
in their confidence in themselves,
their farms and their businesses" he
said. "They feel they have lived
through considerable worse condi-
tions than now exist when they we're
not nearly SO well organized to with

they refuse to be alarmed or dis

thing was that the security among
