the latest report of the forelen rein. the J'0"8 'D t,lose cflscs where moral
: j, '-""'"''tiee. lie can bring nbout a
TfdIi2k' i,f bf .can dfat te treaty.
eJjE, n ia h,a Imn(lg- e is re
sponsible in a large measure for the
awkward situation in which the treaty
is today. Gradually the mild rescr
vationlst Republicans were forced to
make a compromise with their bitter
ender brothers. In the beginning there
were twenty mild rcservationist Ilo
publicans. Today there are four or
live.
,wrr wi'son repelled these possiblo
allies, first, by his declaration before
the Scnato foreign relations committee
that ho would accept only reservations
not included in the resolution of rati
fication and ngait, by his speeches on his
western tour, especially by his public
rejection of the McCiimbcr colnpromlse
form of the Article X reservation,
nndjiy his constant refusal to make a
bargain with them, when they were
strong in numbers and had no bargain
Willi Mr. Lodge.
Tlirco Courses rieforo Wilson
AA'hen be sees Mr. Hitchcock, the
President may do any one of three
things. Ho may put out through Sena
tor Hitchcock some appeal to the coun
try. He inny ninke, through Senator
Hitchcofck, n defiulle offer to Mr. Lodge
to accept .ccrtrtin reservations, the first
five for cxarnple, and the hated pre
amble, if the Ilepublicans will aban
don the others, accompanied by u
threat to reject the treaty, if -the other
reservations arc attached. Or he mhv
postpone compromise moves until after
. . j.i-imu.itiui iimjuiiii iius kui
through its work and then seek to Bet
a modification of the reservations on a
motion to reconsider.
The Democratic tactics have thus far
consisted solely of postponing the evil
day when n decision must be inndo nnd
a policy udopted. This same indecision
Mr. Hitchcock wanted to keen the
treaty before the Senate without a mo
tion for reconsideration. His position
is untenable for more than a few days.
It is against the precedents and it is
against the theory of majority rule.
If Mr. Wilson Insists upon maintain
ing it thero will be n deadlock right
away. Rut probably Mrs .Hitchcock
adopted it only until lie cduld See the
President arid agree upon a program.
Appeal to Piibllc Useless
In Democratic circles you hear the
suggestion that Mr. Wilson should
rather appeal to the public once more,
"bombard" the rather unnatural com
bination that Mr. Lodge has worked out
between those who want to defeat the
treaty and those who favor its adoption
untili it falls apart.
The trouble with this plan, is that
it comes too late. Mr, Wilson ought
never to have let that combiuallyu form.
Moreover, on his western trin lie ex
hausted his capacity to influence the
Scndte by a popular appeal. That
weapon has been used and failed, Only
in Democratic circles docs the idea per
sist of the irresistibility of the Presi
dent. Tho other possibility is that Mr.
Hitchcock will leave tho' AVhite House
today or tmriorroV with the terms the
President is willing to make in his
pocket. Mr. Hitchcock is ready to deal,
and having In reserve the .power to
defeat the treaty if reasonable tcrhts
are not accepted, will be ih a' stronger
position than ho ever has ieen hitherto
in the ireaty light,
Senate Deniaitds Dcekloji
The desire to get the treaty finally
dlsnosed of is extremely strong in the
.. .... . . .' - .-,.-,- ,:.
Senate, tho real wish ot mc nouy is
to have the treaty ratified with reserva
tions. The thing that has stbod ih
the way of this so far has been the
unwillingness ot tne uemocrais to irauc.
If tbe President at last faces tho
facts, there is hope of a compromise,
riot such a comprolnlso as lie once inlglit
have obtained, but still rt compromise
and the ratification of the treaty.
Will the President face the facts?
Ho probably, has little idea how grave
the sltilntloil has betome sltife he fell
ill. A mero study of the reservations,
likely to command a majbrlty of tin!
Senate, would be a grave shock to him.
His illness has complicated the situa
tion aud still complicates it.

the thirty-seventh division1 of the
Twenty-second Ward, ho' said, and ex
pressed fear that the practice' would run
through the ward.
Organiiatlon Ilepublicans, Mr. Por

cn'hdldiltcN for C6unell from the
sixth district nnd nro supporting John
AV. Graham, a Democratic nominee and
Pringlo Itorthwick, named on the Pro
hibition tlckc't.
There is evidence in Gcrmanlown, Mr.
Potter asserted that the "regular" Ile
publicans there are trying to slide.. in
Frank .1. Oofmau ns mlrtftrity member
of the board of county commissioners.
The candidates for the (lermantowu
poor board arc not exempt from the
vote slashing", Mr. Porter cohelufled.
The Itcpublican candidates for the poor
board nrc Isaac 8. Currier, Dr. W. B.
Fetterman and John Marscn.
These nominees, the former director
claimed, were being cut in favor of the
Democratic candidates, Charles O. Rus

Day.
A tour throngb tho twenty-second
ward made by investigators showed
thnt the vote cutting was sporadic
rather than general, although Mr.
Lamberton undoubtedly was being
"knifed" in certain divisions.
There were several instances' of -vote
trading.

Twenty-second ward, the home divi

Apathy Is Imaginary
A phenothehnliy large vote was1 pre

"I thought all nlong," said Mr.
Coles, "that the. IfiO.OOO Republicans
who nominated Mr. Moore would make
sure that he was elected nnd vote for
him almost solidly. AVhnt wns called
dpathy was not apathy at all. It simply
meant that the people had mnde up
their minds as to what they were going
to do nnd they aro doing it. There
is no occasion to be 'het' up nb6ut it.
