Seeing that Senator Hitchcock wa? so uncommon
ly solicitious. according to Harvey's Weekly, to have the
result of the recent college and university referendum
inscribed, enshrined, or embalmed lit the luminous
pages of the Congressional Record, and pari passu his
fkee unon it, vve may be
I pardoned for taking a few linbs to make clear the real
-f .1. l:
significance or uie ining.
The' vote was taken in 413 colleges and universit
ies, or less than three-quarters of the whole number, and
was participated in by 158.078 persons, including both
students and instructors, or probably about one-half of
the total enrollment. Considering the strenuous ef forts
which were made, particularly by supporters of the Ad
mml.frotlnn tr tret out a full vote, so small a balloting
9 must be regarded as betraying a deplorable lack of act
ive interest in the matter.
The division of the vote was as follows :
Total number of ballots a Aj
V unqualified ratification
For Senator Lodge's reservations
hor compromise reservations L'aaq ft
For Senator Knoxs reservations iSqv!
For rejection of the Treaty 3,933
The five classes obviously fall into three groups.
One cinsists of only the first class, the votes for ratifi
cation of the Treaty as it stands, without reservations.

fourth classes, all of which voted for ratification with
some sort of effective reservations, lltose secured
913 votes, or about 60.7 per cent of the whole. The o
V,Jrr1 consists of the last class, the votes for outright re- f
jection of the Treaty. Such votes were 1 3,933, or 8.8

FIRE CHIEF
Now it is also auite obvious that only the votes in
the first class mentioned, for unqualified ratification,
were in support of the President, and that all the others
wer onnosed to him. ' n
In this academic referendum he received 48,232 ft
votes, or 30.5 per cent, while there were cast against
hi'm 109.846 votes, or 69.5 per cent. In other words, f
he was beaten by much more than a two-thirds majority.
The members of Cataract Hose com
pany No. 2 at their regular meeting
Monday night elected officers for the
ensuing year as follows: Ed Lavier,
president; Edward Jarrett, secretary;
Ernest Lavier, Jr treasurer;. YT. A.
Helsby, first assistant; R. O. Young,
second assistant
Edward Lavier was placed in nom
ination for fire chief to succeed him
self at the election to be held the
t'rst Monday in March. Mr. Lavier
has served as chief in 1917 ana 1919,
and during the time representatives
from the. state fire marshal's office
were in Oregon City he spent two
weeks with them in helping to make
a survey of the city.
Dan Nolan was placed in nomina
tion tor fire commissioner.

THE AMERICAN RACE f
The Creator s design is tho Superman
And 1 feel no on should doubt,
As His Inftnitrt wisdom eoncolved the
plan.
That Ile a able to work it out.
The alchemy where the change nrw
mad.
Is the boiling caldron of time;
Here the testing t. done and the fit
test grade,
Is preserved in a manor subl'me.
Now the latest typo that has takou
its place
In the world's progressive plan;
Has received no name as a distinct
race,
Of the specieg we know as man.
For destroying the dross, the great
alchemist
Had need of a melting pot
And the heat that would force a
higher test, .
Or the Superman conies not.
So He sent to thin land, from over
the sea,
A heterogeneous imvsa
Of the sort of men who longod to be
free,
And to rank in the higher class.
Iti this seething pot there were a cast
a few,
Of the Dime, Norwegians and
Swedes;
And some Scotch, and Irion and Welch
and the Jew,
And a few ot the other breeds;
Such as Itels'ans. Germans the Dutch
and the Swim,
And the Enrliah. Frenchmen and
Fole;
Fn'iu these, through the help ot hard
ship and bliss,
" Came a race with a larger soul.
Their appearance was first at Pun
ker Hill.
Where they fought with a tyrants
hordes;
And at Gettysburg they were fighting
still,
With a valor sunning words.
They appear again at Manilla bay,
And at Santiago Bg well;
For the earth' oppressed they will
win the day,
W'hj'le defying the horrors ot bell.
They appear again In the forests ot
France, .
Whore they met the barbarous hun;
They are keen for the fray and the
word advance,
And they scorn the murderous guns.

WASHINGTON. Feb. ".President
Wilson has outlined his position on
the treaty situation in a letter which
may be laid before the conference of
Democratic senators, It was learned
al the White House today.
The letter, wh,':h was addressed
personally to Senator Hitchcock, sets
forth the president's position a un
chaiged in Insisting vpon ratification
of the treaty with nothing more than
interpretative reservations.
Senator Hitchcock will be allowed
to use bj's own discretion In using the
letter witb the conference or making
It public, It was stated at the White
House.
In the letter the president indorsed
the position taken by Senator Hitch
cock In opposition to the reservation
on Article X, It was learned. The
president's letter, it was sad, largely
reaffirms the poaition which be took
in his message to the Jackson day
dinner of the Democrats.
The White House today took the
view that Viscount Grey's Indorse
ment of reservation to the treaty
has aided the president In bis fight
aga'nst reservations. White House of
ficials declared that there ia evidence
of a sweep of sntlment against the
reservations as th result' of .what is
termed outside Interference by
