Tim United Htnlen enate, acting In It own namo and hy It constitutional authority, litis taken tbn first tep toward tho establishment of peal'p. That tho lower house will ndopt tho senate resolution with tint very little delay I assured. Hut whether the ndnptlon of tbn reso lution mean pence or further war between tho autocratic oxcetitlvo department and congress dependK altogether on that Individual who ar rograntly subscribed Ills namo to tho Versailles treaty with tho addendum that he, Woodrow Wilson, president nf the United Htnte nf Amer ica, wnB "artlng In his namo and by hi own rightful authority." There Wa not a word about constitutional authority there. That, was tho signature of n. Caesar, nn Alexander, a Napoleon! And It sprang troin a brain filled with an ambition nn Impos sible! And there Is all tho trouble. To oppose thn peace resolution Is to glvo ad hesion to tho doctrine that even now America I not mistress of her own decisions. To prevent that status ever becoming the status of this free and independent nation Is tho impelling purposo of all who hao opposed tho Versailles pact. It I the Impelling motive of the senate, of thn con gress and what nobody now disputes I tho impelling wish nf tbn American people.' We urn or we nrn not a free nnd Independent nation. It wn are, then tho congress has a right to repeal It own ad creating thn war status, without taking counsel nf thn wishes of other na tion. If wo arn not, If tho executive Is right, then It is high tlmn that wo re-establish that status of independence and freedom regardless of cost. It can bn done nt lesn cost and sacrifice now than later. That It must bn done I a proposition' with but ono sldo and that tho Amer ican sldn. Thnso who plead for tho Wilson leadership at this time nrn playing fast nnd Iosn with not only national honor hut national safety. A hundred million voice are clamoring for pencn by In dependent action of thl nation. Against that mighty demand there 1 heard the opposition of mm Individual rilng nbnvo n pitiful chorus of partisan supporters nnd a mo-too press In capable of understanding' that It Is stultifying It self and marching in tho ranks of those who stand opposed to a vlrilo nationalism. It may be that tho president will veto tho resolution after congress ha adopted It. Hut that will not altar thn fact that congress wn obliged to discharge its constitutional duty and had nn right to nntlclpatn that tho executive would bn recreant to lis duty. When Woodrow Wilson affixes bis signature nf disapproval to tho peace resolution, whether ho doc so "In his own namo and by his own rightful authority." or whether hu does so riB the constitutional president of a constitutional and sovereign state, he also signs tho death warrant of his own ambitions nnd the prospect of his party. America will continue lo bn America In the broadest and best sense despite ho and his rub ber-stamp followers. And If she cannot havo peaco with their approval, sho has at hand tho means of securing pence despite their dlsap proval. Woodrow Wilson may bo wiser "in hla own rightful authority" than tho composite volco uf a hundred million people, but if so bn Is unfortunate In not having been able tn so cost his course nH to convince tho hundred million of that fact. homi'llilng tells us that 1'aderewski Is about to abandon politics and tho patrlolln role for tho stago.
