What if Mr. and .Mrs. I'hogley bad not decided to spend the night in Medford, as scores of tourists undoubtedly do. 'I'Jit-y 'would have drivcil on soiith' eompetely ignorant of this city and what it offers.

Here is another piece or l.vpieal tlemaijooic hunenmhe pvae ticnlly the sole product of the Cpper House of Congress these days, p O.VK knows better than the erudite Senator Moses, thai in withhohlhio; secret eorrespoudence voncernin this treaty, President Vloover is not only entirely within bis constitutional rights, biu jh. following out the tniditiou and pnictioi of every ('resident, since the time of Washington, . Treaty making is the rresi'ilents business, NOT the Senates. The Senale has nothing to do with negotiating, writing or sign ing treaties. All the Constitution provides is that before be coming elfective a treaty must bo ratified by the Senate. IK IT were not for the popular ignorance regarding this treaty mid treaties iu general, which the New Hampshire senator profeHs-es to rgvef, hfl would never have tlnred to talk as he has since the treaty debate started. He and Hiram .Johnson and all the rest of. them would have been laughed out o? court by a people properly enlightened. Senator Moses is very thankful the people of this country know so little about treaty making, ami pay so lillle attention to it. This ignorance allows him and his fellow t nuspirators, to pester the President please the Hig Navy nabobs, and garner some fortuitous political profit for themselves. A more perfect example ,of hypoeriey, insincerity DOWN RRiltT D1SHOXKSTY than Senator Moses exhibited in his attack on the President and the imagined.

They knew, and their grins showed they were appreciating the Colonel's point. Why then; he demanded, didn't (he same thing happen here? Why Indeed? The Colonel got tho biggest cheer of the season, but nobody answered his question. There isn't any answer. Grants pass Courier.

The decision, it may be believed, will meet with Ihe entire approval of the ex-sefvice men. although, of course, Ihe ex-serVice men as guests would probably be .polite enough not to criticize the appearance of their hosts even If they were wear-. Ing hairy disguise, and clothes res cued from the rag man. Actually, there is no logical con ned ion between whiskers and an American Legion convention. Kven If there, were, this business of pigeon-holing the razor. In preparation for a celebration Is getting to be rather an old story. It started, as far a.s we can re member, in California several yearn ago. Last year they did It in Ku gene. It is no longer unique or distinctive, ami the discomfort of It to a man accustomed to going clean shaven might even be effec tive In lessening Hie holiday spirit. Perhaps something of this sort may have been in the minds of the Maker merchants when they made their decision. Or, It may lie that they lt, in the light of general beard culture, that the absence, of facial hirsute growth might be in itself distinctive.
