BITS FOR BREAKFAST WHAT IS (OR WAS) THE SENATE OLIGARCHY? ; ', AVhat is, or rather: was, "The Senate Oligarchy' to which 'Cox, and other Democratic speakers, arc constantly referring? ' An oligarchy, a government by a minority, , is traditionally iand justifiably obnoxious to the American, .people.. , Our insti tutions are. based upon the fundamental proposition that ma jority rule should, and must, prevail in this country. . . The Democrats are endeavoring to give the impression, therefore, to a people devoted to a ixjlitieal faith resting for i'its corner-stone upon the sacreduess of majorities, that a small i crroup of Republican Senators, actuated by unworthy motive . defeated in the Uiiited StaterSeimte on the ',19th of last Starch I'.tbc will of the Americari"peo)le regarding the Wilson League , of Nations. ; - . Than this, nothing could he further from the truth. ;; )ii March 19, 1920, the (Jennan peace treaty failed of jrati iication by the Senate by a vote of 49 to :."; 7 less than thefnec- essary two-thirds. Twenty-eight Republicans and 21 Democrat! rvoted for ratification; 12 Republicans and 23 Democrats against! it. ' " : -1- ' ' r .The full resolution of ratification which failed of adoption -1 by a two-thirds vote was made up of a preamble and fifteen i reservations. All these reservations had been previously adopt ed by majority votes which made them a part pi the complete resolution. ' : The aini of these reservations was to " Americanize" a doc f uinent that, without them Hvas thought by many Jtonest Ameri . cans to be subversive of our national right of self-determination. l .V If you wish to indulge in an amusing game of hide-and-seek r. go through the details relating to the above historic event and find, if you can, the notorious but phantom Senate oligarchy. ' Did that oligarchy consist of the 28 Republicans and -21 Democrats who voted for ratification of the amended Treaty? Or was it made up pf the 12 Republicans and 2'1 Democrats who Rvoted in: tile negative T i t. ' i' . In any conceivable definition, of the tfnra "Senate oli- earchv', as applied to this historic episode it is apparent that the governing few was made up of both Republicans and Dem- ?V ocrats in about -equal proportions: - In other -words, of -there really existed, at any, recent period, a reprehensible oligarchy ' . in the Senate, the blame rests as much upon the Democrats as -1, upon the Republicans, a point that is never made by Cox or his ; r fellow Democrats. .

The mayor was for free speech Now he would punish a newspaper tual criticized him and his spo sors. But, of course, lie doesn have to be consistent. commandingly. "If you don't the first shot will nick your ear. the second your foot, and the third your heart." Ernast'a only answer was a de risive laugh, v.h'ch vas stopped on his lips by a shot from the re volver. His hand went up to his left ear. which to my amazement, waa nicked as neatly as If it had been cut with a pair of. sharp scissors. "One!" said the officer -Impressively. To tha eternal credit of his bravery Ernest didn't stop run ning. Instead, he made another jump to one side, and as he zig zagged, began to shout: "Otto, where th dev " Another shot rang - out, and Ernest sttrfhbled. almost fell. With marksmanship that was al most uncanny it was so un?rring, tha officer had kept his promise and i-hot the other man in the foot. 1 "Two!" iiiloned the officer. . Ernest put up his hands even before he turned around to face th-o officer. Hut even as he did he finished the shout: "Otto! Where the devil are von?" ' " "Come back here!" th3 officer commanded sternly. "Sure. I'll come back," Jeered Ernest, his spirits -evidently un conquered even in the face '"of capture. ."Ths rooster knows when the axe is swingln" for Sunday dinner.

"Thev'll help you to the gal lows," the officer promised grim ly. "Now rail that otnr man again and toll him to come out here. And no monkey business, mind. There are several more ;hots where ho:o two rame rrom." "Oh. please!" I railed to the officer, who did not turn his eyes away from Ernest, but who, I knew, was listening to me atten tively, "the other man Is going to blow up the wireless over in th; windmill lh-i signal this man just pave.'" The words died on my lips In sudden terror. For Oito. a huge figure of implacable rage, had emerged from the old windmill. In his. hand was a rifle. As he raised it and fired I felt a sudden stab of pa n iu my arm.
