CZAR'S PREMIER TO i- LEAD DRIVE ON REDS f iff- ' .it ! i.i-'Wi - .fat WHY THE AS THE American constitution summed up tho exper iences of the American 'colonies in their relations with each in an effort to secure, hamonioxis relations be tween the sovereign states, so does the constitution of the league of nations sum up the experiences of the allied na tions in their international relations. All the lessons the nations have learned in their contact have been embodied, as far as possible, to provide a tentative frame work for harmonious international rotations without infringing the national rights of the individual nations. In the process of time, this constitution will probably be changed to meet the changed conditions, as Hie Ameri can constitution has been amended. Gradually the federal power has been extended oyer the power of the sovereign states and in the course of tune, the power of the interna tional league will probably be similarly extended, if it proves the part of wisdom. The league of nations marks the first attempt of the na tions of the world to unite in a common effort to provide peaceable settlements of disputes. It marks the progress of the world, just as the American federation did nearly a century and a half ago. ' What President Wilson lias been trying to do at '-Paris was summarized in hi address to congress Jan. 8, 19.18, which embraced the famous 1-t-points upon which an abid ing peace could be formulated. At the time, this address was highly commended among the nations of the" earth, and the congress of the United States and the American press joined in the chorus of approval. .- . , It is interesting, now that these points have been em bodied in a real constitution, and the "dream of an ideal ist" become an actuality to review the opinions then ex pressed by the newspapers now opposing the league of nations. The Xew York Sun, ono of the bitterest opponents of today, remarked as follows then : We commend the admirable precision with which President Wilson has stated the principles which the allies regard as essential to permanent peace. Every shch sincere statement brings nearer the peace of victory: not a victory of destruction or dismemberment or racial disaster to the Teuton peoples, but a victory over the militaristic autocracy and the self ish dynasties which America and "her allies are making it their business to put out of business for the sake of the future of the big and little peoples of this distressed planet. j The New York Tribune, now assailing the league of nations, said in an editorial entitled "Beyond Praise:" In a deep sense Mr. Wilson's words constitute a second Emancipation proclamation. As Lincoln freed the slaves of the south half a century aeo, Mr. Wilson now pledges his country to fight for the liberation of the Belgian and the Pole, the Serb and the Roumanian. For the long-suffering populations of Alsace-Lorraine and Italia Irredenta tho words of the president of the United States are a promise of freedom after a slavery a thousand times worse than that of the negro. In every real sense Mr. Wilson is leading his people on what may prove the last crusade. - -- Republicans in congress and out, generally approved the 14 points, the only dissent being in regard to the third point which some thought the president's words "the re moval, so far as possible, of all economic ban-id's" niiirht mean universal free trade. pressed by the republican legislature of New York in the following resolution: t . : .' . . ' . . -. , Resolved, That the senate and assembly of the state of New York, for the legislature and on behalf of the people of the state, do hereby app'rovo and indorse the statement of aims in the president's message, and do hereby extend to the president of the United States sincere and 'heartfelt congratulations upon the manner in which he has mado clear to the world the attitude of the cnited States of America in this world crisis. Until the war was over, there was no hostile criticism of the president's suggestions, or of the proposed league of nations and then a virulent attack was began upon both the president and the league, in an effort to create partisan capital. As ex-President Taft-remarked, the league is not a party affair, and critics are partisans rather than Ameri cans and all true Americans should support the league for the welfare of humanity and the progress of the world.

'3 TRIAL NEARS END HELENA, Mont., Feb. 21. The state rested this morning in its case against W. F. Dunn, editor of the Butte Bulletin and a member of the legislature from Silver Bow county, charged with sedition for the alleged publication of an article said to have been calculated to Incite resistance to the mandates of the state council of defense.
