Thc following article ?; former
President H'iffieirn Votcnril Tnft t re
printed from today's Public I.ednci
Copyrighted, 1020, by the Public Ledger
Company,
Norton, Kan.. June 10. The (lis
patches from CliionRo report the meet
ing of the resolutions committer of
the conventlou and the choice of Sen
ator Watson, of Indinna, ns its chair
man. Without further information
thli tniirht indicate tin- puniciM- of the
committee to report t)ic unsatisfactory
and non-committal declaration of the
Indiana convention on the subject of
the tongue, hut tin dispatches say that
Senators Watson. Lodge', Lcnroot,
KcIIork, Hale and MeOiimbcr and
members of the advisory platform
committee favor a plank tlhlch, after
indorsing the mN of the senators, pre
venting the ratification of the peace
treaty 1cs submitted, lilrdcet the party
U the ratlllcation of a treaty of peace
and an n-oeiiitliiii of nation" with nn I
Internntionat tribunal for the deter (
between the nations and with uch safe
ftinrdt as will secure the protection of
every American interest.
It was further reported that the
Johnson -Hornh faction arc pressing the
declaration of uncompromising opposi
tion of the party to nuy such plan of in
ternational government as is contem
plated in the League of Nations em
bodied in the treaty of peace with Ger
many by President Wilson, nud nf
flrmfng its determination to preserve
lor this government its foreign policy
of Washington and Monroe. Of courso,
the members of the Republican party
and they arc in the majority, who np-
?rovc the League of Nntions with the
.odge resolutions if they can get
nothing better must be content with
uch a vague declaration as that now
proposed by the senators who voted for
the treaty with the Lodge reservations,
and assume that what tlu senators
mean Is to approve their own course.
It would seem asth better, however,
to adopt such a resolution ns that of
the New York state oomentiou, which
was much more explicit.
League Ismio Unavoidable
The circumstances are surh that when
the 4th of next March conies the issue
rill and ennnqt be other ise than the
approval of the league, with the Senate
reservations or something similar to
them, or its defeat. There is no other
league: there is no opportunity to nmke
any other league or constitute auv other
association. It is this league, modified
by the recruit inn's whirli Mr Lodge
aid in his speech protected oyorv Amer
ican interest. Why not for ouce gratify
the desire of the votiug public and ninko
clear w;hat it is that the resolution
mea.ni. so thj't it ini lie applied hv
the voter to the situation nnd he may
Tote according to his judgment?
Heal i-sues enimot he avoided bv
ambiguous words in a partv declaration,
and it Me. Johnfcnn and Mr. llnrnh
insist on a straight-out declaration
against the league, with or without
reservations, their insistence will miiUe
this vague resolution mean wlmf It
onght to declare explicitly coniiuenda
tion of the thirty-five senator who
voted for the league with the Lodge
reservations and a pledge of the party
td abide hv their attitude ns its future
policy They, having o toted, should
hate nothing to apologise for Neither
should the pam in their behalf. The
ItcpublicuiiH who would have preferred
to nave the treaty without i enervation
-were not in the tnaioritt of the party
and have accepted the course of the
thirty-fie Republican -enator-. Why
now attempt to bet loud the position
whirh these icnator should be willing
clcarlj to take, when they will bo driven
to sustain it in the campaign by the
opposition of Mr. Jolin-on and Mr.
Borah?
Rumblings from Mr. Itorali indicating
a bolt are not to lie taken so seriouslv
as explicit statements by Mr. Johnson
In respect to the platform. Mr. Horn
has been threatening to holt on this
nubjeet for a jour. I'nfortunately for
him, ho has thundered in the index so
much on other uhjeets, uotnhlv in his
opposition to Senator Penrose, that
many are inclined to take what he siiy
as only for present use and in a Pick
wickian sense. One may conjecture
thnt Mr. Itorali would be much em
barrassed if Senntor Johnson were to
