LONDON, June 11. (Special Cable.)
"American Support of England's Ene
mies" is the heading of a letter to
which the Morning Post gives promi
nence, from Sir Edward Carson, in
which the Irish unionist leader says:
"The resoluticfn of the senate of the
T'nited States of America, supporting
the enemies of Great Britain in Ire
land, is an unparalleled internationl ef
frontery which cannot fail, if persisted
in. to sap the foundations of the league
of nations. The resolution may well
jrivc grave anxiety to those who desire
the success of that project and to those
who are concerned with the future re
lations of this country and the United
States.
"Following upon the recent mission
of Americans in Ireland, it will create
other difficulties in the government of
that country and will give impetus to
the campaign of murder and assassina
tion already rife there.
The fact that the resolution was
passed for political purposes, in order
to weaken the position of President
Wilson and as a maneuver in the game
of political parties in America, is
demonstration of the uses to which the
policy of the league of nations may be
diverted, and it makes one think se
riously as to whether international
difficulties may not be increased rath
er than diminished if. at the outset of
this new international venture, an act
of indecency of such a character is to
pass without protest."
Arrangements are to be made for the
wide publication in the United States
of the report of the Irish-American de
egates. Mr. W alsh is inundated with
cables requesting statements and news
paper and magazine articles and inter
views on the Irish situation, according
to Mr. Kelly's dispatch, to which he
adds:
"I am informed on authority that the
view of President Wilson and his col
leagues has so far been that they are
not at iiDerty to start an official dis
cussion oi lrisn matters in the peace
conrerence. Unless the resolution o
ine united states senate shall cause
radical change in their plans, they will
stand officially by their policy of in
ternational etiquette. The value of the
resolution will then be measured not
by its effect on the American peace
commission, but on the British govern
ment.
"In an interview today. Mr. Walsh
expressed great satisfaction with the
senate resolution and expressed the
opinion that, whatever may develop in
me peace conrerence, the Irish ques
lion nas definitely emerged from th
obscurity of a problem merely domes
tic.

WASHINGTON, June 11. After a
short period of comparative quiet the
senate fight over the league of nations
appears certain to be resumed tomor
row or Friday with a fury that may
eclipse all previous struggles growing
out of the controversy.
It is around the resolution of Sen
ator Knox, republican, of Pennsylvania
proposing to put the senate definitely
on record regarding the revised cove
nant of the league that the next chap
ter of the fight is to be written. Sup
Dorters of th a resolution hon to father
I enough strength to give warning to
the Paris conference that the treaty
annot be ratified here in its present
ortn. an eventuality which the treaty
upporters expect to fight to a. finish.
The foreign relations committee to-
ay decided to take up the resolution
omorrow morning with the prospect
that it will be brought into the senate
as soon as It meets at noon-
It is considered likely the fight will
begin when the resolution is called for
passage Friday. Even its friends do
not expect a rollca.ll that day, and some
senators are predicting that there will
be none for many days to come. Sen
ator Knox will make every effort to
bring it to a vote before the treaty is
igned at Paris, and in this he appar
ently will have the backing of Repub
lican Leader Lodge.
The commission's engineers have pre
pared plans for a bridge at an esti
mated cost of $268,000. The court holds
to the view that a structure adequate
.or the needs of Clackamas count
could be built for not to exceed S100.-
000. and that if a better and more last
ing bridge ia desired, the state should
bear the excess cost.
Commissioner ThomDson indicated
that the state might abandon the im
provement of the Pacific highway be
tween West Linn and the Multnomah
county line, to get away from the ex
pense of the bridge, but his statement
did not obtain the approval of Com
missioners Benson and Booth, as the
Picific highway has been designated
for improvement by the state. The
highway commission, accompanied by
State Engineer unn. made an inspec
tion of the road through Clackamas
county, including the proposed route
from Canby to Aurora, eliminating rail
road crossings at Canby and Barlow.
This route will necessitate a new
bridge across the Molalla river, and
estimates for the grading run between
j.,vuu and ?48,0H.

JUAREZ, Mexico, June 11. Five hun
dred Mexican federal cavalry, we
armed, left Juarez at 8.30 -P. M., moving

Reliable information is to the efiect
that unarmed Villa and Angeles men
have been trickling into Juarez during
the evening.
At 8:30 tonight a Mexico Iorthwest

cars were moving south of the station.
It was a military train, but informa

not be obtained. The city on the sur
face is quiet, but feeling is intense.
The name of Villa is heard frequently
on the streets, something unusual since
the Villa-Carranza split. All officers,
men, quartermasters and paymasters
wore their sidearms tonight.
With advance forces of General Fe
lipe Angeles reported at San Augustin,
16 miles east of Juarez and midway
between this city and Guadalupe, 3

CRITICISM HELD UNFOUNDED
Mr. Walsh Says No Constitutional
Prerogative Set Aside.
WASHINGTON, June 11. Asserting
that opponents of the league of iu
tions have trumped many unsupporta-
ble objections to Play upon popular
sensitiveness. Senator Walsh, demo
crat, of Montana, defended the league
covenant in the senate today against
charges that it subverts the American
constitution.
Answering Senators Lodge, republic
an, of Massachusetts; Knox, republican
of Pennsylvania, and others who urged
constitutional objections, the Montana
senator declared their arguments were
founded on theories long since dis
proved. He quoted many precedents
to support his position that the cove
nant neither sets aside any constitu
tional prerogative nor assumes any
new power in treaty making.
Past Treaties Recalled.
Charges that the league would be a
"super-state," he declared to be a "mere
declamation," since the organism in
most of the provisions complained of
could only "advise" or "recommend."
The celebrated article 10, he continued,
certainly would bind the United States
to make war in certain instances, but
added that the same obligation had
been assumed by various treaties made
by this government in the past.
Referring to assertions that thf
league would be a "super-government,'
the Senator quoted from the covenant
at length and continued:
It is idle to assert that an organiza
tion thus equipped is government at
all. It has no army and no treasury.
nd no means of securing either.
Though it may render decisions, it can
not make laws, neither can, it levy
taxes."
Amendment Move Scored.
Senator Walsh said no one contended
the league covenant was perfect. But it
was "a mere subterfuge," he declared
to talk of amending it. "What the sen
ate may do," he continued, "is to pro
pose amendments, which in substance
is rejection of the treaty with a con
dition. The whole subject is thus
opened up and negotiation must be re
sumed. Ioubtless other nations will
propose amendments. The stupendous
labors of the past six months are all
undone, peace is as far away as it was
last December.
"The situation is not unlike that
which was presented when our const!
tution was submitted to the states for
ratification. Its opponents, open and
secret, were all strong for amending
the draft submitted. Washington was
not deceived by this method of attack.
'If another federal convention is at
tempted,' so he wrote to Charles Carter
of Fredericksburg, "its members will
be more discordant; will agree upon no
general plan. The constitution is the
best that can be obtained at this time.

Constancy of quality is a merit that
can only come of integrity of manu
facture. Reputation for quality, once estab
lished, is a thing to be preciously
safeguarded.
That is the reason for so much
care in the manufacture of MAID
O' CLOVER BUTTER.
Its unvarying, superior quality is
insured by thorough PASTEURIZA
TION. No method is known to science
by which the quality of
Maid o' Clover
Butter
might be improved. Its aroma is ex
celled only by the taste. Its food
value is up to the mark of both, for
it is PURE with the certain PURITY
that comes of PASTEURIZATION.
If you are not eating MAID O'
CLOVER BUTTER you are not giv
ing your palate its desserts. There is .
no equal substitute.
All this would be foolish waste of
printers' ink if not true if it were
not possible for you to verify it by
ordering a pound of MAID O'
CLOVER BUTTER from your gro
cer and putting it to the practical test.
