WASHINGTON, D. C, March 14.
(Special.) It cannot bo said that the
bottom Is out of the light on the four
power treaty, but it is clear that op
position i3 not going to be any-
stronger than it now is and that the
treaty will be ratified by a small but
Bafe margin.
The opposition has not been able to
start any measurable momentum,
either in the senate or, what is more
important, in the country. It is real
ized that the country is overwhelm
iniri in favor of ratification, and tn
opponents of the treaty in the senate
have been discouragea oy tueir u
ohiiit to utart even the fair begin
nings of any such movement of public
reeling aa was worKea up agamst m
league of nations.
lodcc Makes Good Irrmtt low
In the senate debate the friends of
the. ira.tv have done much better
than its opponents. Lodge made
comi nresentation of his case an
cam out of the heckling, which the
democrats had prepared for him with
so much gleeful anticipation, without
being notably damaged.
From the democratic standpoint it
was not the best possible strategy to
entrust the beginning of the opposi
tion fieht to Reed, of Missouri. Reed
made a showing which, in the case o
l man who took himself more seri.
ously or who was taken by the public
more seriously, might have mariceaiy
lessened the public regard for him.
His argument was at best wandering
and superficial, and anyone who fol
lowed it closely and judged it by
unv reasonable test of intellectual
Btrens-th was moved to emotions
considerable distance from, admira
tion.
Reed Tangled on Treaty.
At one point Reed was talking as
If he assumed the Anglo-Japanese al
liance would continue to exist after
the adoDtion of the four-power treaty,
Senator Lenroot called his attention
to the fact that the treaty, in its
language, specifically terminates the
Anglo-Japanese alliances. Thereupon
Reed passed it off by eaydng he had
Dot noticed that.
Inasmuch as this is the most im
portant point in the treaty and con
Btitutes its chief purpose, such an ad
mission left Reed in about as awkward
a position as any senator often finds
himself in. We noticed when we read
the printed account of the debate in
the Congressional Record the next day
that this passage beween Lenroot ana
Reed had been calmly eliminated.
Borah's Speech Weighty.
By far the weightiest and most con
vineing speech against the treaty was
Borah's. If the other irreconcilables
and the opponents of the treaty gen
erally had as complete a knowledge
of history and as much forensic
ability as Borah they might have
made a better impression.
The really determining factor, how
ever. Is the state of public feeling
throughout the country. All the re
Bponses and all the evidences of pop
ular feeling are discouraging to the
opposition to the treaty. They all
tend to show that the country is most
unreceptive to the sort of agitation
which was successful in preventing
ratification of the league of nations.
The country has looked upon the
Washington conference at close hand.
It was held in Washington, and the
country has come to the feeling that,
after all, international conferences
don't necessarily bite. The burden of
proof on the opponents of the ratifi
cation of the four-power treaty -is felt
to be much heavier against the lr
reconcilable than in the case of the
league of nations fight. They are dis
couraged and know they will not win.

Scion of Pioneer Multnomah
Family Has Relatives and
Friends in Court.
Flanked by relatives, with friends
crowding the courtroom to the- doors,
and armed with a petition signed by
21 persons intimately acquainted wit!
him and requesting that he be paroled
Earl Falkenberg, scion of a 'pioneer
Multnomah county family, pleaded
guilty before Presiding Circuit Judge
Tucker yesterday to an indictment
charging assault and robbery.'
Falkenberg was with Earl Bandy,
20-year-old lad of many escapades, In
the robbery of two homes onthe Cor
nelius Pass road and holdup of an
automobile party on December 17.
Bandy was sentenced to 26 months in
the state penitentiary some time ago.
Falkenberg pleaded not guilty, but
yesterday changed his plea to guilty
to the lesser of two indictments.
Judge Tucker temporized, saying
that he. wanted a little time to look
into the case, and postponed passing
sentence for 10 days.
"Only yesterday there was an old
woman in my court, pleading for
leniency for her only son, who had
committed his first offense against
the public commented the judge,
"She was alone and friendless, but
can assure you that her representa
tions had just as much weight with
this court as any which might be
made for any person, regardless o
the number of persons making them.1
Falkenberg, who is 18, stood straight
before the bench as he made what he
assured the cdurt was a "clean breast"
of his actions. He admitted the crimes
charged against him. but asserted
that Bandy planned and controlled
the execution of them all. - Though he
had a revolver at the time of thf
automobile holdup, Falkenberg as
serted that it was not loaded and that
when one of the victims made
drunken show of resistance, be put
the revolver in his overcoat pocket
before closing with the man.
When Judge Tucker told the young
man of the seriousness of his ofense,
Falkenberg appeared to appreciate
the delicacy of his situation and was
almost relieved at the reprieve of 14
days in jail while the judge is making
up his mind.

Isaiah Moore, Church "Worker,
Blames Plight to His High
Strnng Temperament.
INDIANAPOLIS, March 14. Some of
the tangled threads in the matrimo
nial ventures of Isaial Moore, 32, choir
singer, church worker and man of
many wives and many aliases, who is
held inojail here on charges of bigamy
and embezzlement, seemed in the way
of being unraveled today with the re
ceipt of reports from cities bearing
evidence concerning some of his- nu
merous marriages.
Moore is said by police to have ad
mitted at least 14 or 15 wives scat
tered throughout the country, but he
has been able to-remember the names
of only 11 of them. The story of his
matrimonial escapades has been veri
fied in several instances and police
believe information concerning - the
others will be forthcoming soon.
Moore waived preliminary examina
tion in city court today and was held
to the grand jury under $5000 bond.
He appeared in a highly nervous con
dition when he appeared in court,
twitching and jerking constantly.
Later when questioned in his cell re
garding his frequent marriages Moore
said: "I think it was all due to my
nervous condition. It seems that as
long as I was petted and 'babied' my
condition improved. At other times i
would feel depressed and lonely and
want to run away. Then I would find
someone else and fall in love with
them for a time."
Moore 'was taken in custody in Min
neapolis several days ago by an op
erative of a private detective agency
as a result of a complaint made by
his last wife, who was Miss Harriet
Evans, an Indiana school teacher. He
was engaged to marry a girl in Min
neapolis when arrested, it was said.
