Senators and Reservations.
Dispatrlu. from Washington bring informs
lion that the -fiiatc rnmniittre on foreign rela
tion is shout ready to vote on whether it will
give approval to the four-power treaty sub
mitted by the president. The iniporlant issue of
s "reservation" has been settled, it is reported, by
adopting the words of the president in his address
when the treaty was submitted, to the effect that
"the United Slates understands that under the
statement in the preamble or under the terms
of this treaty there is no commitment to armed
force, no alliance, no obligation to join in any
defense."
This is said to be satisfactory to all the com
mittee, save Senators Johnson and Borah, who
still feel that in some way there is a catch con-.
ceaiea in tne treaty. Mr. jsoraii was quoted,
after hearing the president's remarks on submit
ting the work of the arms conference that if it
were as then explained he would vote for it. Ap
parently he has not yet been able to satisfy
himself that Mr. Harding, Secretary Hughes.
Senator Lodge, Senator Underwood, or Mr. Root
were not hornswoggled into something that in
volves the United States in an international en
tanglement of dangerous character. The senator
from Idaho is very consistent in his advocacy of
a policy of absolute isolation, even to the ex
clusion of the fact that the United States must
in some way treat with other nations on matters
ot grave import, such as t lie racihc question. .
Senator Johnson has not signified (he reason'
for his opposition to the four-power treaty, other
than that he is opposed to any sort of an en
gagement by the United States with another
power which might by any sort of reasoning or
refinement be construed into an infringement on'
the right of congress to declare war. Therefore,
the treaty will not be sent back to the senate
from committee with an unanimous recommenda
tion that it be ratified with the reservation at
tached, nor will it get by the senate without
much debate. "Irrcconcilables" of both parties
will have a great deal to say, and these will be
reolied to at length bv the defenders of the
treaty, and much time will be wasted in con
forming to the rules that give the senators the
right to talk at any, time and on any subject.
Perhaps by the time the four-power treaty is
out of the Vay sentiment in favor of the Jones
rule, which will require senatorial" discussion to
be germane to the matter before the body, will
have grown strong enough to come to a vote. It
is not impossible that the senate may yet reform
itself, to the extent of cutting off useless debate,
and it is also possible that the "irreconcilables"
are assisting in bringing about this reform.-
Fire in a Dance Hall.
According to report, when fire broke out in
an Omaha dance hall, some of the men at
tempted to rush down the stairway ahead of th,e"
women. At all events, some one beat the police,
officers who sought to avert panic and to let tl;e"
women escape first. The spectacle of a! man
strong enough to whip a policeman and yet so
timid as to push ahead of the girls in his fear of
fire is amazing. v
Some readers, who do not dance and who have,
either through envy or moral prejudice, a dislike
for dancing men,, will feel that this incident
bears them out. Others will speculate over, how
many young women, but a moment before hap
pily ensconced in the arms of a partner, 'found
their romantic admiration routed in the panic as
they were deserted to their fate.- Nothing so
lifts the veil on human nature as a- crisis of this
sort.
Soldiers dance, sailors dance, and many other
persons of brave heart and strong character. But
there are some who do nothing so well as step
about the polished floor. Once the jazz strikes'
up they. appear asdemi-gods to. the simple eyes
of many girls. If this little occurrence at the
dance hall fire opens their bright eyes to the fact
that just because a man is a fancy dancer and
knows all the latest steps it is not sure that he
is a paragon of courage, virtue or industry, noth
ing real will have been lost and much gained.

was there to fight a suit for $108,000 brought by
a theatrical agent, and with her husband was
beset by a mob of young men and girls as she
came out of the court just at the noon hour.
"Hey, Dougl Hello, Maryl" admirers shouted.
The boys wanted to see Mary, but "It's Doug we
want to see," said the girls; "we don't care about
Mary." "I want to get a look at that million
dollar smile," said one, giggling and pushing.

" If Gold Were Demonetized.
Nations whose supply of gold is running
short are talking of denying it as a standard for
monetary measure of value. This has moved
Thomas A. Edison to inquire how much would
a troy ounce of gold be worth if it were de
monetized. Like many of Mr. Edison's other
questions, this is not especially difficult. Gold
will continue to be worth what it will bring on
the market. Its value does not depend ex-
ciuMvcly on its use as a money metal. In fact,
the truth is the other way around. Gold was
held in high esteem and value long before money
was known as such; it was a standard medium
of exchange centuries before it was coined. Gold
is perhaps the first metal known to man; it is
widely diffused, and very useful. That is why
it has and will retain value. Nations have at one
time or another tried different substances or ob
jects as a basis for money, such as periwinkles,
cowrie shells, and the great stones that are used
in the Marquesas islands, but savages and bar
barians alike from the earliest times gave to gold
a front rank, and it maintains that rank because
of its intrinsic worth. Demonetizing gold will
not have a great deal of effect on its actual worth,
for, while it may go down a few cents in' the
United States where it is plenty, in countries
where it is scarce the price will go up, and soon
an equilibrium will be restored, and gold will be .
worth nearly the same the world around.
And finally, there must be a standard-or yard
stick of value, no matter what it h, and gold will
be measured by that. . r.
If a Neighbor Has a Still..
The traveling salesman on the train declared
that he was a firm prohibitionist, but told. "of
having failed to live up to his conviction in the
matter of reporting illicit distilling to the police.
"I know, as a good citizen, I should inform
against bootleggers," he admitted, "but I'm just,
plain yellow."
Rev. A. Z. Conrad of Boston recently dis-
Lcussed the same point which disturbed the con
science of the Jvebraskan, and while he did not
say outright what he would do if a neighbor
should engage in this illicit enterprise, he an
swered the question from a theoretical stand
point. . ' '
"Is it honorable to act as an informer if you
know a neighbor is. operating a still?" he asked
in his Sunday night, sermon. Perhaps not an
honor, but certainly a duty, was his conclusion.
"You can not leave it to a policeman," said Dr.
tonrad, 'Svhen a man is committing murder.
You must interfere at once. And when the con
stitution is being violated, you must tell the
proper authorities."
The Nebraska traveling man took exactly this
position. AncL-yet he confessed that he coold
not bring himself to practice it. Partly perhaps
it was of a di$like'of notoriety, iear of revenge
pr being misrepresented in his motives or seem
ing to vent a grudge.
.Why not hear from the police reporter on
this? Do many citizens turn in information
about cases that come under their observation?
Do most of the tip's come from nameless sources,
through anonymous telephone calls or letters?
Congressman Andrews proposes that certain
states return money due the federal government,
and thus provide the' means for paying the soldier
bonusl The' boys will, indeed, need the money
if "they have to wai.t for this plan to go over. Not
that the iclaiin of the federal government is un--just,'
but because the twenty-six states that owe
it have a majority of votes in congress. '
Another dreadful indictment of the movies

cording to a Kentucky democratic congressman..
Can you think. of anything worse? ? '
The inexorable" progress of events is answer
ing a great many of the calamity howlers,. but
some of 'therri persist in hope of prolonging hard
times, perhaps.
Kansas City police have carelessly mislaid a
prisoner returned to them from Omaha, but
was not wanted here.
Ambassador Harvey is perhaps comforted
with the thought' that no man ever succeeded in
pleasing everybody. ' '
Even New York is getting after the swindling
stock brokers. The process is slow, but it is
showing results. . .. :

THE HIGHEST DEPTHS OF. PEDANTRY.
Tim says that he knows some people who are
so ignorant, so credulous and so enthusiastic,
that if a soapbox orator should get up and tell,
them that Aguinaldo, the Swiss admiral, licked
Wellington, the bolshevik general, at the battle
of Bunker Hill, because Abraham Lincoln killed
Caesar, and that is why we celebrate Thanksgiving
day, they would take it all in and hurrah for
Aguinaldo.

How One Businesa Grew.
During the war period Mrs. M. F. Homan
of Macon made a batch of candy to sell to raise
her little daughter Caroline's quota for war work
among school children. It tasted lie more to
those who bought and after a short time a
candy dealer put in a stock of her candy fresh
every day. Now six firms in town are carrying
her candy regularly despite the fact that there
are two candy factories there, and she is branch
ing out into other towns. She is able to under
sell factory products because she does not aim
to get rich off every transaction, but only to
make enough profit to make it worth while and
keep it moving rapidly. Kansas City Times.
Objecting to the Bonus.
Many senators and representatives will find
out when the votes are counted next November
that their support of bonus legislation had been
noted with decided disapproval by a majority of
their constituents. Spokane Spokesnjan-Review.
