L. Patton Who Happened To Be Passing. The porch of Winnie Haley's house caught fire one morning last week and the house, which is a good sized one, would probably have been destroyed if it had not been for Dr. who happened to be driving past there in his automobile about three i.

As the fire was all ready burning brisklcy and the entire family wa3 souml when the doctor Br" rived, there is no telling what might huve happened had the doctor not happened along just when he did.

421 Commercial Street, THE RESERVATIONS, The reservations to the I League of Nations Covenant passeu uy uie oeaate una ween emasculate the League of Nations part of the peace treaty. The "difference between the treaty with and without the reservations is the difference between Americanism and a dangerous internationalism I leading to nobody knows where. The" Republican party: looms high again as the American party and the Demo-ocratic party, turning its back on all its traditions relating to government, makes a sorry spectacle There are those who say the senators who voted for the reservations, did so to their faces, indicating that the reservations are only a froth, or the essence of nothingness. Those who make such statements are, you will notice. those who made the mistake of getting on the wrong side of the fight and are now crawfishing in a belated effort to escape from the ludicrous position of being out on a limb lhat is being cut off.

The Senate should have rejected the covenant part of the treaty in its entirety in the first place. That is probably what would have been done, had it not been that such action would 4V maVino- rf new treaty. The writer believes. however, that if the president. carrying out nis inreai to ao i i i SO, snouia Wltnaraw me treaty ul from the senate, nothing better for America could happen.

The treaty as presented to the senate by the president act- ..11 tt uaiij- naa du vuuch cic powers away from Congress give them to the League of Nations. That to do so would ave violated the American Constitution made no difference with some of those favoring the covenant. Even reflections derogatory to the Constitution have been made by proponents of the League covenant. EMPORIA AND LYON COUNTY NEWS. (Last Week.) He Wept.
