AMERICAN politics is one thing that Americans are not ac cused of copying from Europe. Like the game of base ball, our politics is indigenous to our soil. We do politics in our own way. Our booms, our roorbacks, our dark horses, our lame ducks, run to form that originated in our own country. In si r and atmosphere our politics is a thing apart, in much the same sense that jazz music is, and no other country would think of claiming it. A national sport is our politics. We take it with our coffee to begin the day and again take it with whatever fluid serves as a nightcap in these times of drouth. Horse racing, baseball, poker, craps none of these employ ments, recreations or vices has more of the tricky element of chance than has politics. Further, the pageantry of brass bands Jind parades, and the songs, slogans and gesticulations to per spiring throngs have their peculiar fascinations. There are people who are kept alive only by politics. Take away this particular sport and you take much away from the average emotional citizen. Do not take it away from him, therefore. Rather, broaden and deepen his interest in politics. Make it for him not only a sport hut an opportunity for patriotic patriotic service as well, says the Chicago News. The coming six months' period especially requires from all tf us the pursuit of politics as an act of patriotism, not just as a epuning proposition.

The skele ton of what may prove to have been a mlsslonery connected with the Jo'.i et or La Salle expeditions of 1679 was uncovered by the recent floods in the Mississippi river at Meyer. III., a village twenty miles north of Quincy. Along with the remains, which re posed on a rock slab were found two silver bracelets and three sold silver crosses, one being stamped "Mrfntre al" and the smaller one "R. C." The bracelets or wrist bands were marked "N. H." HE Knox-Lodge resolution for the "everlasting dishonor" i I ! of a separate peace with Germany passed the senate by a vote of 43 to 38. In the affirmative all but three were republicans and in the negative all but one democrats, although one other republican was paired. As this measure was introduced and supported with the knowledge that it would be vetoed by the president, its futility became as great as its dishonor. With Saturday's attendance the republicanss lacked eleven votes of the two-thirds majority necessary to override presidential objections. Heretofore in this long controversy the two thirds rule has operated against the president. Four-fifths of the senators have voted in favor of the treaty in one form or another at various times, but on two occasions when the main question was put a two-thirds majority could not be had. In November the treaty failed 51 to 41 and in March 49 to 35. It will be seen from these 1 igures that the back-door peace proposed by Messrs. Knox and Lodge is rather more remote from the two-thirds goal than the treaty ever was. If there had been more than a pretense of sincerity in the attitude of the republicans the showing made in behalf of a cow ardly and stultifying resolution would have been humiliating in deed. They know that they cannot make peace in this way. What they are after is a false and tricky record that will serve on the campaign stump as a smoke-screen to hide their inexcus able obstruction of peace, their desertion of our comrades in arms, their abandonment of the liberated peoples of Europe and t heir demoralization of their own country by their partisan war fare upon the president. Senator Knox made this clear when, in referring to the elimination from the resolution of the clause impudently re questing the president to negotiate a new treaty, with Germany, be .-legantly said that he agreed to the change because he "did I i want to rub it in on the president." Rubbing it in is what the reublican leaders of the senate have been doingfor considerably- more than a vear. They have been rubbing it in through their eighty-odd investigating committees, smirching everybody who had anything to do with the war, belittling our penorm ; nee on land and on sea, belying our professions, alienating our frionrrR and at last in reeard to a treaty already in force, re fusing to take a responsibility.
