OF THR TREATY. i - I It seems, after all, that the sen-x' ate is not going to ratify the peace treaty, or, if it is ratified, it will be in such shape as to be wholly unac-1, ceptable to President Wilson. The | president ha? stated that if passed , with the present reservations attached to it, the reaty will not be accepted; that it will be a dead letter. . The president has put up a hard fight ( against tremendous odds in his at-! tempt to give to the world a proI ' gramme of peace. In this attempt he i has been fought to a bitter finish by . the Republican party. The fight is not yet finished, but things look very , dark for the treaty of peace. If it 1 fails the Republicans will have elect- . j I ed to assume a vast responsibility.' ^ v-i: j 1 ! we ao not now ueneve ana navo uev- ; ( er believed that the people of the j , United States are in sympathy with:. the strenuous fight that has been! I' made on the president. It seems that! j the Republicans, aided by a few Dem- j ] ocrats?who ought to be notdft care fully by their constituents?cannot ^ 1 realize that the old order of things. ( has changed. There has been a time ^ when every country lived unto it- j I self. That time is no more. The1 . i' world is now one big country. The i, interests of the various nations are ? so closely allied that any matter that i . I ' pertains to one now^concerns the j j whole world. There was a time when j ( war between two Asiatic- countries j, meant little if anything to America, j, Now the cotton market, the price of j j food and the price of clothing and 1 * the price of nearly everything else j t soars skyward even on threats of j war between the king of Siam and an East Indian potentate.

HE fore follows, that, inasmuch as the world is affected by internal or national affairs of individual nations, the rest of the world should have something to say about these matters. We~canriot see any objection to a world programme trat will insure peace to the world, and we can see no reason why America should shov.e off on the other nations the responsibility for policing the world without her assistance. We believe that ultimately the principles enunciated by President Wilson will win out, because they are right and just. ? ? i*I ? THE GOVERNMENT AND LABOR. It appears to be a certain fact that the government of the United States is on trial. Never "before have such vital internal matters 'been presented to the government of this country. The present labor trouble will doubtless determine in a large measure whether or not pur democracy will stand the test. The open and free liberties of America are now bidding fair to cause serious embarrassment to the government. The lax immigration laws of America in the past are low bearing fruit?the rottenest kind Df fruit. The millions that have been allowed free access to our free land are now seeking to destroy the government that has given them the only liberties they ever enjoyed. We do aot believe it any exaggeration to say that ninety percent.?or more?of the labor trouble of the country today was caused either directly of through the influence of undesirable immigrants. The so-called "Reds" are none other than Russian bolshe vists, and the T. W. W. are of the same stripe. The coal strikes were :aused by foreign influence, and it is :o be sincerely hoped that the government will not give an inch in its present fight. The interests of the Deople ought to have an inning once n a while. Between the greed of he capitalists and the radicalism of ;he labor unions, the people are inleed in a sad plight.
