tho action of the senate in Its refusal!

according to tho expressions of opln-1
Inn gathered, but most pf those Inter
viewed do believe that ratification
would huvo hud n most uojiejlclnl ef

failure formally to nccopl peace, was
blamed by many for tlio depressed

shown in roce,ut below par bids re

SEWER QUESTION UP
Action l'otMinel :io Dujs on He

i'lnnni-ial Problem.
No llend improvements bonds will
be sold at less than par, either to
bonding houses or to contractors,
even If pending sewer and street
construction has to be delayed until
a proper bid can be obtalne1. This
was the policy announced last night
by Mayor J. A. Eastes. and confirmed
by the meiubers of the council at the
regular inld-moiitlily meeting of that
body. The declaration came, in an
swer to a protest against the plan
of assessing property which will be
pencilled by the Improvement, and
which was ut first taken by the coun
cil to Indicate an objection to the
cull for bids fur a sewer contract.
A delegation of some 40 property
holders, beaded by J. H. Manor, pre
sented the protest, and after an
hour's discussion expressed their
confidence that Hie question would
be properly handled by the council.
All matters relating to sewer con
struction were tabled for 30 days In
which time the, taxpayers hope to
work out a plan for flouncing the Im
provement. "Silent House," Objected To.
Suggestions that work on sewer
laterals now under construction are
being delayed to pud costs and ullow
the United Contracting Co. to put In
an Inflated bid for the larger con
tract in the newly created sewer dis
trict, were made by Mr. Hanej- In his
presentation of the taxpayers' case.
"We are ptrgcly in favor of sewers,
but we object to the plans of the. sil
ent house." he said. Asked by Coun
cilmnn D. G. McPherson for an ex
planation, he Indicated that the "sil
ent house" was no other thun A. J.
Welton. of the, contracting company
which has ulready made an informal
offer to take the city's bonds at par
In payment for the proposed sewer
work.
City Engineer Itobert B. Gould In
formed the delegation that the
sewers now being constructed by the
United Contracting Company have
occasioned that corporation n loss of
$2,100 to date, and that Mr. Welton
knew that Hie contract would be a
losing one when he took It.
Mayor K (isles expressed himself ns
extremely gratilied at the interest
(nken in city affairs by the taxpayers,
and declared that he hoped a spirit
of cooperation would result which
would mean much for the ultimate
bette.rnu-nt of the city. "Although
sanitation in llend Is bad. nnd the
need for sewers cannot be denied. I
am w'illlng to sell no city bonds be
low par." he said. "While I am anx-

down In Washington," commented
another republican. '
One prominent democrat expressed
his wonder at the ease with which
n few "bonehend senators" can throw
the world into turmoil. "This should
n't be a party question nt all," ho
continued. "It is a patriotic issue."
'"God only knows how it will all
come out," another democrat assert
ed. "It's an everlasting shame to
both sides. Tho treaty has been
mndo politlcnl capital, and It Is just
such action ns this that may force
tho election of soma fellow like Hoo
ver, who has no party."
One man of Those que,stioned
laughingly remarked that he hadn't
tlmo to worry over the senate, but
another angrily declared that the
oonduct of the upper house remind
ed him of nothing so much ns two
men landing on tho bank of a river
and arguing whether to throw u rope
or a life preserver, while a third man
was drowning before their eyes.

defendants were given sentence
varying from one to two - years.
Ninety days was granted in which to
effect an appeal.
GRAND RAPIDS. Mich.. March 20.
United States Senator Truman H.
Newberry, with 16 other defendants,
was found guilty of fraud in the
1918 election campaign, by a Jury in
the United States district court to
day. The Jury found that Newberry
conspired with his associates to causa
an expenditure during the campaign
of money In excess of the amount al
lowed under the federal corrupt prac
tices act.
The maximum penalty provided by
law is two years' imprisonment, and
a fine of $10,000. Sentence was to
be passed this afternoon.
Senator Newberry was found not
guilty on a charge of using the mall
to defraud.
The "Newberry case" grew out of
one of the bitterest campaigns eTer
waged for a seat In the United States
senate.' Truman H. Neiwberry and
Henry Ford were the leading contest
ants. Newberry, a member of one of
Michigan's oldest and, before the au
tomobile industry hit Detroit, wealth
iest families; a member of the nary
during the Spanish-American war,
assistant secretary of the navy In
Roosevelt's cabinet and an aide to
the commander of the pprt of New
York during the . world war, based
his appeal for election on a war plat
form. Huge OrganlznHon Built.
Ford, head of the Ford Automo
bile company, head of the Ford peace
ship, and, before the United States
entered the war, leading pacifist,
built his platform on support of Pres
ident Wilson's policies. "
The Newborry supporterV blillf up
a huge organization entering into
every county, city and village in the
state. By their own admission $178,-

torneys contended that they had
showed $225,000 was paid out to
"purchase a seat in the senate for
Commander Newberry. Testimony
given at the trial stated one defend
ant in a conversation said $300,000
was spent. ' : '
Paul H. King headed the New
berry campaign committee in Michi
gan. The government claimed that
Senator Newberry and Frederick
Cody hatched the alleged plot to cor
rupt the 1918 elections in Michigan
while they resided In New York.
. Newberry worked directly through
King In carrying out the details of
the campaign, the government con
tended. Many Indictments Filed. .
The case hinged on the question
of whether or not Senator Newberry
' caused to be expended" au amonnt
In excess of the sum allowed by the
Michigati statutes in procuring his
election. This amount isr$S,750.
The defense contended that New
berry had nothing to do with the
spending' of he large sum of money;
declared that he did not contribute
one cent to. the campaign fund and
was not-, Informed ot the huge
amounts spent In his behalf during
the campaign.
