A FTER 8 months of wind-jammiing against the peace
V treaty, the senate has for the first -time in its his
tory, adopted a cloture rule which limits debate to one
hour for each senator, so that at the end. of 96 hours de
bate, a vote will be taken upon the treaty. This action
was necessary to prevent a filibuster against the treaty
which would have prevented a vote and killed the meas- j
ure. Eleven republicans and five democrats voted against
applying the cloture rule, and they include the irrecon-j

quently by his talkung proclivities, been able to nullify
the efforts of the other 95 and thwart the expressed will
of the people. Only the storm of censure aroused by the
senate's failure to act in national crisis, forced the amend
ment oi trie rules. -
It was public indignation against tthe "handful of
wilful men" who by filibuster against the resolution per
mitting the arming of merchantmen in March of 1917. Dre-
vented American ships from protecting themselves
against the outrages of Hun U-boats that forced the re
luctant senators to change their obsolete rules and per
mit the application of the cloture by a two- thirds vote.
This is the first instance of its application.
There have been many famous filibusters, in which
there was a race between time and the or-atoral staying
powers of a recalcitrant senator. Sometimes the filibuster
has been invoked to kill vicious measures, some times to
slaughter meritorious bills, in the closing hours of the
session.- It has enabled a wilful but strong lunged minor-,
ity to defy the majority. Even today only severe pressure
from the people forces its abandonment.
The senate takes itself very seriously. As the late
Harry Lane declared "a senator is some pumpkins'' at
least in his own estimation. It apes the customs and the
manners of the .ancient Roman body from which it gets its
namethough the latter comprised the nobility of the na
tion, whose persons were sacred, an oligarchy which
reany ruled tne common wealth.
It would seem that in eight months continuous talk
fest, everything possible should have been "said for and
against the treaty. Not a vote will be changed by the
concluding debate, not a new idea advanced. The oratory
will be wastedbut only the clock will check it. The 96
hours will be fritted away in endless repetitions of argu
ments that have already nauseated the public. But the
people will be greatly relieved to know that the end of
this deluge of talk is Hearing and that some kind of action,
no matter how unsatisfactory, will be forthcoming.

rnther regretted Hint I had told John
I would R-o to a restaurant with him.
My eyes were very red. my complex
ion wns defaced with tear marks, nnd
my fontures very much swollen. I
hntoil to make my first appearance
among John's friends looking like
this, fur I wns sure he would take nie
to the smartest restaurant and we
would probably see many people
whom he knew.
Besides my trunks had not come.
and Although my tiitlor-mnde was of
the very best cut. it was somewhat
mussed from traveling. I wns very
unhappy about my iippeurnnco, es
pecially as I saw In John's face that
lie also was somewhat disappointed.
Immediately realized from his ex-
pressslon that it was in his mind to
show me off somewhere.
Mail.'iine llordon was not visible
when I went down stairs, and for this
I was truly thankful. To my surprise.
n very beautiful limousine wns stand
ing at the door and I presumed that
I his wns his mother's ear. John's
roadster had not arrived.
I had a feeling, ns we drove away,
that some one wns watching us from
behind the curtains nnd I understood
perfectly how I should feel under the
same circumstances, and I knew that
however uncomfortable John's mother
had made me, at this moment she was
inore miserable than I.
"John," I said timidly, as I slipped
iny hand into his, "where are you go
ing to take me? Don't you think we
had better go to some quiet place to
night? You know my trunks have
not come nud I feel terribly tacky."
"Oh. you're nit right." lie answered,
"nnd we nre going to the Country
Club."
My heart sank clear to my boots as
I pictured that Country Club full of
women in the smartest of sports' suits
and evening clothes, looking nie over
nnd wondering why John Ciordon hnd
chosen such n "frump."
1 wonder why it is that people feel
called upon to still ntloto that old
adage of "beauty unadorned." Uy
this time we should know that fine
feathers pinko fine birds. 1 said
something of this sort to John and
for almost the first time since I mar-;
rled him I saw a little gl mil of hum
or In his eyes, as he snid: "Oh. I
don't know; I could admire you with-j
out a feather."
Notwithstanding his assurance, I
could see that he wns very much dis-1
appointed In nie as we entered the
Country Club dining room. It
seemed to mo (hat every one in the
place was there nnd that I had never
seen smarter gowned women nd bet
ter groomed men in nit my life.
Kvery one of them seemed to know
John Intimately and they tanked at
me expectantly, nppraitiingly, although
I knew that they had not ns yetl
learned of John's marriage. )
"There's Alice nnd llessle!" he ex
claimed, and in his eagerness he took
hold of my arm and piloted me over
to a very ornately decorated table at
which were seated u number of beuu-
in evening dress,
T sahl In a panicky whisper.
"Come on, what's the matter with
you?" he said, evidently loud enough
for every one at the table to hear,
for they all looked up. Alice, of
course, knew of John's marriage, and
I presumed that the b.vnitilul gli'l sit
ting near Jior was tin- Bessie- whon
hia mother had .tii'ljnvl
Alice loolv d up wi'Si a frank cur
iosity nnd i coiiil her fr.ee fall as
she caught a goo l view of :ne. Ihu
she .ns dlsii-pnlntc-I too. v is evi
dent. John piloted n.e quickly to the
table, and it seemed to me .that the
silence of the entire room echoed with
the words: "This is my wife."
I felt myself go red and then white,
I was not sure I was not going to cry,
hut. I braced myself and looked that
tableful of people In the face with all
the self-assurance 1 could summon.
I was nware of curiosity, indifference,
surprise on all the faces, and a little
look of triumph upon the face of the
young women I had decided in my
own mind was licssie.
At this moment a wonderfully com
forting voice said:
"Ity Jove, Jack, I think you stole a
march on us, because you knew you'd
have to fight with some of us for her
if you didn't."
At this a rather small, boyish look
ing figure rose from the table and
with out-stretched hand came remind
to where I wns standing.
"Jack Gordon and I have been
friends nil our lives." he said, "and I
never thought that ho would have
such good sense ns this."
It wasn't so much what he said, for
that was rather banal, as his warm
hand clasp and the look of sympathy
In his eyes that won my gratitude. I
took the chair that was squeezed in
among the other guests with more
self-confidence than I thought was
possible under the circumstances,
even though I heard Hesslo whisper j
to her escort: "Would you have
thought that Jack Ciordon would have
picked a 'frump?'" j
(Continued Monday) ;
world-wide attention, was the favored
candidate.
Her election was declared certain by
the unionists.
Lady Astor expects election by a
plurality of 'more than 10,000, it was
said. Her backers were reported to be
offering heavy odds on her success
with no takers.
Labor Is Opposed.
However, the most optimistic of the
viscountess' supporters admitted she
had aroused viulent opposition in some
quarters. The labor vote, It was con
ceded, probably will go almost solidly
against her.
All the candidates wound up their
campaigns with feverish activity yes
terday and last night.
Lady Nancy held six meetings dur
ing the day. The laborites, she charged,
realizing- they were beaten, had de
scended to a campaign of persona!
abuse.
Charge Called "Contemptuous." -
They even were declaring she had
endeavored to buy votes, Lady Nancy
said.
This charge the viscountess char
xcterized as "contemptuous."
"I'd despite persons selling their
votes as much as those offering to buy
them." she shouted.
I'm convinced that I will be elect
ed," the viscountess added, pleading
for a "thumping, unskimp" majority.
An impressive meeting in the Guild
hall last night, at which Mrs. David
Lloyd-George, Vife of the premier,
spoke in behalf of the viscountess'
candidacy, concluded Lady Astor's
campaign. More than 5000 heard the
addresses by Lady Nancy and Mrs.
Lloyd-George. Other thousands were
unable to gain admittance.
I' our members of parliament also
assiste l in the Astor campaign yester
day. The result of the bye-election will
be announced November 28.

An instance of the extent of tM
smuggling was recently offered in the
case of an American woman, married
to a German. She asked a newapnper

would take out a package of the drug
for her.
"I'd be willing to pay him well,"
she said.
"I'm sure you can't bribe nn Amer

correspondent.
"Well, I don't know, maybe I'm
dead morally, but I'm so desperate ;
that I'd do almost anything, and if I !

Every Ford Owner Should Know
Just what Ford service is, and why it is different from ordinary
garage service, and why it is more profitable to patronize the Auth
orized Ford Dealer! .
The Ford Dealer is a part of the Big Ford family. He carries a
large stock of genuine Ford parts for repairs and replacements so you
don't have to wait while he sends for them, and he uses only genuine

don't wear. .
He has a thoroughly equipped up-to-the-minute garage with
tools that enable his Ford Mechanics to efficiently and properly
make any repair from a minor adjustment to a complete overhaul
And when the work is-finished, his bill represents the reasonable,
standard Ford prices.
Now, we are Authorized Ford Dealers a part of that grtut
Ford Service organization which was formed chiefly to. put within

est in Ford repairs and adjustments. We are prepared and equipped
