DEATH LOVES AS-'-.IN IN ; MARK
The death of Charles A. Sv;!-:j Delegate elect,
is most pitiable; and it i i the deepest
sympathy for the striekonc.l i and on, and
the whole population of the Way joins them
in mourning for the untim cl ‘h of this com
paratively young man wh-- - 1-- loved by all
who knew him.
“Charley,” as he was familiarly called by his
thousands of friends, was a r: an the ground
up. A good husband and h. • and tender
hearted and always considt - to ' other people's
welfare. He made lasting Viands of whoever he
met. His sympathetic always on
guard for an opportune. ’ ethers and he
never failed to respond g ; n ;o an appeal.
Of late years- Charley a -deep interest in
politics and with unquesti d earnestness, he
devoted most of his time : inn-rove conditions
of all his fellowmen. \Vhc ■ <- was opposed
to his political affiliation c ■ view- or not, made
no difference to Charley. Every man: woman
and child was his person.d ;d and treated
alike. None of his politi • 1 - -nts ever at
tacked him personally. On the r ■ tr-ary, they all
had a good word for him Vh w knew that his
aim was to please all; and r.e ; .. happy in the
thought that he succeeded . !m ir d >1; - well; which
makes the loss the harder. He v t. tricenkened

TAFT ON ' '
Mr. Taft's criticism c ch
in the United States Senate diagnosing the pro
posed British-WUson League of Nations Cove
nant, is based almost entirely on what Mr. Taft
calls Senator Knox’s misconception as to the
power and authority of the League or the Exe
cutive Council of the League, to put its decrees
into force. Mr, Taft rightly says that the Coun
cil and the League can only “recommend” and
that each nation is then free to do what it pleases
There is the weak point of the whole League.
If a recommendation it accepted, well and good,
but if rejected, there shall war for there shall
be no power to enforce the recommendation;
therefore the League will be usefulonly to discuss
things and will prove worse than useless. No
covenant can ever amount to anything unless the
1 eaPue has the power to enforce its decrees. In
ther words, the League must have the right to
■mpe! any nation to enter a war if the League
so decides. To that end large armies and navies
must be maintained.
WIPING OUT THE MONROE DOCTRINE
On the very day Senator Borah was delivering
his speech in the United States Senate proving
up to the hilt that the proposed League of Na
tions would obliterate the Monroe Doctrine and
reduce the United States to a state of vassalage
to England, the London Spectator, unknown to
him, was confirming his words. In an editorial
.. hich appeared in the Spectator on February 21
this statement is made: “If the authority of the
Leasue be accepted in the Western Hemisphere
the Monroe Doctrine in its literal sense will
cease to exist.”
with the abrogation ol the Monroe Doctrine
veil] also go the second of President Wilson’s
fourteen propositions, which demands freedom
of the seas. According to the London Spectator,
the League of Nations will effectively settle that
question in favor of England’s overlordship of
the waterways of the world. Here is the line of
argument adopted to prove that the second of
President Wilson’s fourteen propositions has
gone to the scrap-heap: The very delicate and,
indeed, perilous question of the freedom of the
sea^ has by force of circumstances disappeared
altogether as an issue. As President Wilson has
himself explained, that doctrine was asserted in
the interest of neutrals, but in future there will
be no neutrals. If war breaks out again the
Id will be divided into those who side with
■ or the other of the belligerents.
So there you are. The League of Nations would
wipe cut the Monroe Doctrine and leave England
[he bully of the seas. Any compensation for
this? The London Spectator says there is.
It is clear that the League of Nations so far as
England is concerned, is framed on the principle
of 'Heads I win; tails you lose.” It remains to
be seen whether the United States Senate will
approve of that swindling game. —New York
