treaty goes over
__? -1
?
The failure of the Senate to
adopt'the .treaty was read with.dis
appointment by a lucre majority of
the people of the United -States,
who are "convinced that President
Wilson understands the situa
tion clearer than his critics. I he
mass of the people have ever be- I
lieved his plans are for the best, j
The treaty merely goes over, how- .
ever, and it can. be called up again j
within the next few weeks, as the ;
regular session of Congress begins 1
the first Monday in next month. !
The Baltimore Sun expresses the ;
situation when it says ? the refusal i
of the Senate to ratify opens the I
way" for further and more rational
action. It is absurd to argue. as
some* Of the bitter-enders have done/
that this action kills the treaty for
goodiand that it cannot be taken
up-'iighin' by the'Senate. If a ma
jority of the Senators really want
the treaty and the League of Na
tions they can set them.
?'The question now i? whether a
majority of the Senators do reall\ ;
want the treaty. More accurat<#l>.
perhaps, it is whether the American
people want the treaty and whether
they have the power to impress
their!will upon the Senate.
"A most solemn responsibility now
rdsts 'upon the moderate reserva
tionists in the; Senate. President
Wilson has indicated a willingness
to accept reservations which do jiut
nullify the covenant, fhe reserva
tions- adopted by the Senate would
nullify the covenant, as foreign
comment during the last two weeks
und their own content show. There
must- be recession from some of
these. On the other hand, the mi
nority in the Senate, which has
shown itself competent to defeat
ratification with the Lodge reser
vations and which therefore must
be recognized as a body necesfc-atj
to be bargained with, should, i'
the face of the situation which has
developed, show itself ready to make
such concessions as will not amount
to a nullifiation of the covenant.
"They will no doubt follow tin
lead of the President ami adopt this
attitude. The decision, then, rests
squarely in the hands of the mode
rate reservationists. I heirs wili
be a-sad situation indeed if they
sacrifice the treaty for reason?
which history and their own country
men will not approve."

FKRRKTlNG OUT 'RRl>S"
The drive now being conducted by
the federal authorities fur the pur
pose, of deporting certain undesir
ables who have entered the United
States from other countries for i
the purpose of overthrowing oui
government meets with the hearty
approval of all lovers of law and t
order. Recent disclosures show that j
bombs are to be sent out during the ?
holiday season in the guise of t
Christmas remimlers. They are to j
be directed to certain government i
and state officials who have been j
active in bringing to justice thugs !
who have murdered or assaulted (
law-abiding people.
Scenes in court in which these
vampires have been arraigned are j
suggestive. The investigation of j
the alleged radicals who have been
caught in the meshes of the Fede
ral drive for all "Reds" and "Bols
hevicks' 'throughout the Fairmont
W. Va.. coal region was concluded
yesterday evening by Inspector
O'Brien, of the United States Bu
reau of Immigration.
David Black, a Russian, was the
last witness heard, and he gave
some :st>utling testimony. When j
asked to raise his right hand to be I
sowrn , he said. "No: I cannot j
take sin oath .because 1 do not be
lieve m God."
When asked if he was an anar
chist. he said he was not one. but j
was a student of the cause and
hoped'to be one some day. He said j
that he did not believe in any gov- j
ernjment and that he indorsed ''tree ;
love. "1

SOLDIER SEES ONCE MORE
Delicate Operation Restores .Sight
of Man Injured After War
Ceased
Baltimore, Nov. 19.?James B.
Clayton, of C.Jymer, Pa., a member
of the 110th Infantry, totally blind
for over six months, lias had his
.sight restored - through ? a surgical
operation performed by Major James
P. Wheeler, of the surgical staff of
Fort McHenry.i
A peculiar feature of Clayton's
ease is that his sight was lost by
shell fire after the signing of the
armistice. On November 22. 1918,
while bringing a number of pris
oners through the Argonne Woods,
a shell exploded, killing four meii
?and wounding a number of others.
Three fingers of Clayton's left hariji.
were blown off and the sight of his
left eye destroyed. This left the
man totally blind. Clayton is the
fourth man to have his^ sight re
Stored by the surgeons of Fort Mc
Henry. He will shortly receive his
? discharge.
! SCARCITY OF FUEL
Richmond. Nov. 19.?Richmond is
facing a severe coal shortage, and
many industries will be forced to
suspend operations in the course of
the next few weeks, if the drastie
coal conservation orders are nut,
Mr. Vaughan, Farmer, Tells How He

"Sometime ago sent away .for some

to be the consensus of opinion "held
by Richmond'- manufacturers , and
coal dealers in general. A careful
check of the amount of coal oh hand
at a representative number of lo
