A NATIONAL SHOW-DOWN.
It is well that the president is going before the
country with his presentation of the peace treaty. It is
well, too, that his opponents in the senate are planning
to take up the challenge and debate the issue outside of
Washington, in the native haunts of votes and public
oninion.
Washington has tried to settle the matter, and failed,
as Washington always fails when it is more concerned
with politics than with discovering the will ot the nation.
The appeal to the country is, of course, a bid for support
tn the part of the champions of the treaty and its oppon-
ents. jjui it is aiso a ijuesi xor ujjiu uhu himi ucuui.
Each side, in carrying its case to the nation, puts itself in
the nation's power. The public is made the jury. The
.senate, when all argument is over will accept the verdict.
This appeal was the duty of the president and the
senate majority when once it became evident they were
deadlocked. It is the duty of good citizens to play their
proper share in the big drama by accepting every oppor
tunity to inform themselves of the merits of the debate,
and to make up their minds with as little partisan bias
as possible.
Party politics has no more business intruding into
local discussions of the peace pact than it has in Wash
ington. Any speaker, be he president . or senator or vol
unteer from private life, who gratuitously injects politics
into the debate should receive the criticism he deserves.
Just as deserving of criticizing is the hearer or reader
who applies the test of party politics to a matter which
naturally cuts across party lines and tolerates no test ex
cept that of the broadest and soundest Americanism.

Considering the present condition of most of the
roads in this vicinity money invested in supporting a
speed cop could well be considerd a luxury, but a "dim
mer" cop operating along most any of the roads after
dark on the commission plan could make a fortune, and
at the sam-2 time do a lot toward making the road safe
for sane drivers. The unrestrained use of bright head
lights and improper operation of spotlights on cars travel
ing the roads around Salem has come to be more than a
menace. It has made traveling on all of the roads posi
tively dangerous after dark.

RIPPLING RHYMES
By Watt Mason
EMPTINESS.
The things I yearned for in my youth have come to
me, they all are mine; more than I hoped I've won, in
(ruth, and still I languish and repine; I yearned for fame
like other skates, and wide renown has come to me; my
name is known in thirteen states but I've rheumatics in
my knee. My picture oftentimes appears in daily prints
end magazines; but I look back, through mists of tears, to
when I barely earned my beans; mv laurel wreaths seem
wreaths of crape, they do not soothe my jaded soul; my
teeth are in such beastly shape 1 have to bolt my victuals
whole. I have a stately limousine, upholstered. in green
velvet-plush; therein 1 ride, with pompous mitin, while
toiling legions round me rush. No doubt they think my
Vfe's a snap, a stretch of roses and of wine; they look upon
ray kingly map, and wish they had such luck as'mine. Hut
1 must eat the food of cows, the tasteless prune, the hum
i le leek; if fur an hour an pie I browse, I have dyspepsia
for a week. The golden dreams I dreamed of old have
been fulfilled in every way; but I don't value what I
hold, for I am weary, fat and gray. I sit beneath the
mrset tree, or flowly limp along the lawn; one thing
done looks good t) me, and that is youthand it is gone.
Even the rich have their troubles. John D. Rocke
feller can remember when his firm got 50 cents a gallon
for kerosene, and it only cost him six cents to get shaved.
Now he says it costs him 50 cents to eet shaved and kero
sene is only fifteen cents a gallon.
