Twelve Kepublican senators, it is true?, voted nay because they
opposed the principles involved. They, at least, had the courage of
their conviction.
WE ARE NOT GOINQ TO THE DEVIL
People with a happy knack of expressing in limpid language
what are called noble thoughts are trying to make others believe
that this nation is on its way to the devil.
They are telling us that our motives are no longer pure, that
most of us are profiteers and that we are lacking in the moral
grandeur that ennobled the Pilgrim fathers.
All of which sounds mighty fine, but lacks one essential the
average man thinks important, and that is truth.

WHY THE TREATY FAILED
cense to attack the cherished institutions of the country. Regarding
motives, war no longer sustains us on the lofty height to which we
climbed under the influence of sympathy for the oppressed and dis
gust for the bully and a wish to lick him; but the average American
is just as indisposed now as ever to make a dishonest dollar, to com
mit a dishonorable act or to kick the cat because he feels mean or
his liver's out of order. Styles iu American motives have not
changed because of war.
As to moral grandeur, that's something that has to be kept for
special occasions, like the front "parlor in mid- ictorian days.
During the hours of the trials and tribulations of making one's
daily bread moral grandeur has to be stored in the background
It s there, of course, awaiting another emergency like the war,

' TWENTY-ONE DEMOCRATS DESERT WILSON" is a sig
' nificant headline in the New York World in chronicling the final vote
of the United States Senate.
Two additional Democratic Senators were paired against the
President and one in favor of his covenant.
Thus, in the ultimate test, as disclosed by the vote, one-half of
the Democratic membership of the Senate courageously refused to
subordinate their patriotic conviction to the White House will and
"$ aligned themselves with the Republicans.
But the result, on its face, does not tell the whole story.
