The Orleans County Monitor looks across the boundary line of its county Into Caledonia and with uplifted hand shouts; "Horrors! St. Johnsbury, the lily white, has voted license. But with war-time prohibition going into effect July 1 and constitutional prohibition on January 14, next, St.

Johnsbury is taking few chances of having licenses taken out or saloons opened." The esteemed St. Albans Messenger philosophizes over the situation at considerable length. In the first place it finds evidence in the license vote that people change their minds. In the second place it regards the vote as an evidence of indignation on the part of part of the people that their personal rights were invated. It continues: "The result was the effect of complex causes.

Some who voted wet did so because of their indignation over what they consider the invasion of their personal liberty and the sovereignty of the State. The reaction against the federal amendment, now that it becomes more fully discussed and understood, has been marked in many quarters. Others look with disfavor at the constant centering of power In the federal government, which Inevitably leads the way to the destruction of State MARCH 7, 1919.

In a series of books published by the American Book company, depicting life among the early settlers, the characters "Ruth of Boston," "Stephen of Philadelphia," "Philip of Texas" etc, became real friends, and she would carry the same joy in her work to the library or museums that every detail of dress or environment in her illustrations should be perfect.

The pendulum of popular opinion always swings back and forth.

In the end, however, moral sentiment makes appreciable advance. A century ago the present temperance wave in the United States would have been deemed an utter impossibility. In connection with this as other great movements the human race is constantly tending upward and peal of daylight saving. The District of Columbia appropriation bill carrying ner. ine sale or these has become so exienaea tnat a business manager has One of the pressing problems of the day is the situation in which the United States is left with reference to the league of nations.

If the project fails, who will bear the responsibility, the President or the United States, or neither or both? As a matter of incontrovertible fact, both the President and the Senate have played politics to a certain degree. Each has sought to put upon the other the burden of responsibility. Neither side has told the whole truth. Each side has put to the front its own facts and arguments, precisely as would two sets of lawyers in a jury trial before the court. Under these circumstances the public, which is the jury in this case, must take all arguments and facts into consideration, if it is to reach an intelligent and satisfactory verdict.

One of the moves of the Senate under the leadership of Senator Lodge of Massachusetts was the signing of a resolution by thirty-seven republican senators declaring that the project for a league of nations "in the form now proposed" should not be adopted. The resolution in addition recited the desire of the Senate for a speedy peace with Germany on "terms satisfactory to the United States and the nations with whom the United States is associated in the war." The intended psychological effect of this move was to put the burden of proof on the President, and in addition place the President in the position of going ahead when it had already been demonstrated that a two-thirds vote of the Senate could not be secured for the ratification of a treaty of peace embodying the covenant of the league of nations as at present formulated. In addition to the signing of this formal resolution by republicans, a considerable number of senators are said to have pledged themselves to vote against the league of nations covenant. Beside the thirty-seven republicans who have signed the resolution in question two republicans, Elkins and Fall, and eight democrats have indicated their sympathy with it. Senators Kellogg and Nelson are league of nations adherents, but they do not like the proposed constitution.

The eight sympathetic democratic senators are Reed, Thomas, Gore, Underwood, Chamberlain, Myers, King and Shields. It is now claimed that fifty-two of the members of the next Senate are practically pledged to vote against the league's constitution as now proposed. Allowing for the optimism of Messrs. Lodge and Knox, who have engineered the lining-up of the league's enemies and those on the list who are so mildly opposed as to fall off at the first serious pressure, there remains at least one-half the personnel of the Senate of the Sixty-sixth Congress who are committed to the rejection of such a league of nations as is proposed, and it requires two-thirds to ratify the treaty of peace of which this is a fundamental part. A majority of the senators who joined with Mr.

Lodge in attaching their names to the resolution are not against the League of Nations. They are fighting to get the President to accept amendments as to the Monroe Doctrine, the voting powers in the executive council and house of delegates. The resolution presents no insuperable obstacles to the league. It is stated that if the democrats had been alive to their opportunities, they would have allowed the Lodge resolution to go to a vote instead of objecting to its consideration. The resolution could have been defeated by a majority vote and it is said now that the democrats, had they been aggressive enough in their leadership, could have mustered a majority against the republicans at the hour when the resolution was offered.

The battle over the league constitution is now transferred from the United States Senate to the public platforms of the country, and the discussion of the issue through the columns of the press. The supporters of the President propose to appeal to the public. A great campaign Tor this purpose is being planned. Voters will be deluged on all sides with arguments to swing opposing national legislators from their present position. President Wilson's supporters will catch up the principal arguments advanced by him in his final address before sailing for France on his second trip, and it is hoped that before time for final action by the conference at Versailles a verdict will have been reached in this country.

The republicans have no idea of letting the President have it all his way while the country is making up its mind. The anti-league people will be hot on the President's trail. They began to answer his speech with three New York speeches on Thursday. Senators Borah, Reed and Thomas, the two latter democrats, opened their campaign. Tomorrow Senators Borah and Thomas and former Senator Beveridge will speak against the league in Boston, and the next day Senator Borah will make another speech to Clan Na Gael also in Boston.

The debate will be conducted all over the United States. A million copies of Senator Lodge's speech have been mailed and a million copies of Mr. Knox's argument are also on their way to the voters. The addresses of Senators Borah, and Poindexter are being distributed in equally impressive volume. In fact there was never a propaganda attempted in the United States on such a monumental scale as this effort to line up the voters of the country behind a legislative course already determined.

It is realized this is necessary to hold the senators in line, for they are keenly awake to the pressure that will come from the people eager to put the war period behind them and to get back to business with a world at peace. The fate of many individual senators depends upon the outcome of this campaign, and it is far from improbable that the presidency of the United States may be one of the issues to come out of the struggle. The politicians have been making their plans with Wilson eliminated as a candidate. The fight for a League of Nations may bring him back into the arena. Under these circumstances no small significance is to be attached to the co-operation of former President Taft with President Wilson in support of the league of nations as now proposed.

It is also worthy of note in this connection that the republican congressional publicity association through its president, the Hon. Jonathan Bourne, -Tr has given out the following statement from its Washington headquarters: "We now begin to understand why it was that the President did not select former President Taft as one of his colleagues on the peace comirnc'iion. There is no stronger advocate of the League of Nations in this country, aside from Mr. Wilson himself, than his predecessor in office, and there is no doubt that he is doing the Wilson cause a far greater service by remaining at home than he could if he was tied down at the peace conference in Paris. "Thus far Judge Taft has failed to reply to the position taken by leading republican senators that the adoption by the United States ci the league involves the abandonment of the form of government outlined in our constitution, to the support of which every senator is bound by oath.

Rather has he indulged in rosy predictions for the future of the world if the Wilson plan is followed. We undertake to say that what the people are concerned about first is the preservation of their own country, after wThich attention may be given to the welfare of other nations, and Mr. Taft will find that he is not striking a popular note in advocating the contrary." If President Wilson should be brought into the campaign of 1920 as a candidate for a third term on the issue of the adoption of a treaty of peace with a league of nations as a requisite condition, not only former President Taft but a host of Americans would be put in a perilous predicament. Yet politics may manoeuvre the whole American people into that very position. THE NEW YEAR ts a customary time for good resolutions.
