SHOULD PRESIDENT WILSON ATTEND
THE PEACE CONFERENCE?
Now that the war is won, the jrreat game of national
politics will once more hold sway. Many contend that Pres
ident Wilson lifted the lid when he appealed to the country
for a Democratic majority to be returned to Congress.
Manv contend that for months, the mouthings of Lodge and
Iyoosevelt in behalf of the Republican party and their at
tacks on the Administration had effectually done the same
thing. There is no doubt but that both parties are getting
ready for the next Presidential election —th* Republicans
will strive not only to retain control of Congress but to elect
the next President, while the Democrats will go before the
country on their war record and accomplishments.
One of the storm centers of political and public agita
tion will be the President's determination to attend the Peace
Confeernce. It's a bold stroke on his part. What do you
think about it? Below will be found the different angles
in which this matter is already being discussed by the
American press.
The Philadelphia Public Ledger declares:
, "Pregident Wilton hat again proved that he possesses tha cour
age of hie eonvictiono. He ie no long-renge soldier. Ho will meet his
pjitre whether they agree or disagree—face to face What ho bc
lievea firmly he fights for fearlessly. There are unfair critics who ac
cuse him ot a profound faith in his own infallibility It is not that.
His career give* no support to that charge. His policy during this
world-war has been remarkable for its progreeeiveneeo—for the hgh
courage with which he hae acknow leged, and acted in accord with, the
educative effect of event*. 80 far from pretending to "know it all”
from the first, he hae confcesedly learned vary much touching Amer
ica's duties and responsibilities In the world from the vivid revelations
of the lightning-flashing, far-flaming, tragically illuminatinq school
of war.
“Tha lupremc prize for wti ich ha —and we all—fought waa per
manent peace. Permanent peace can only rest upon the stable equil
ibrium of universal pol.tical and economic content; in other words,
"self-determination,” "government of the people by the people,”
“economic opportunity.” Imperialism, race hatred, race or class des
potism, economic oppression—all make for war. President Wilson
enlisted on the first day in the never-ending war against these breed
ers of wer; and he feels that the time has now come for him to help
man the front trenchl
"It ia amasing that so man y of our contemporaries should
have bogglej at the idea when it was first proposed. Its sanity, eu- „
preme practical value end clear obedience to duty were apparent to
the Public Ledger at onm. In any cate, President Wilson would be at
the peace conference. Tboy could not play "Hamlet" without tho
Prineo of Denmark—a role occupied, not by Woodrow Wilson, but by
the president of tho United States. It was only a question whether he
would be convenient for the purpo see of consultation, diecueaion and
decision; or mightily inconvenient, 3 000 mile* away and confined to
communication by cable, very practical argument was in favor of hi#
presence—except the admittedly woighty contention that he might be
badly needed at home. But there ie a cable from Versailles to Wash
ington es surely as from Washington to Versailles. Our boys have
shad their blood for hi. program of permanent peace; and it may
be neceeearv for him to smash a few precedents and take a few risks
on tha domestio situation to make sure that they have not bled in
vein. There is clearly one view of the matter in which it would be
an act of cowardice for him to *ta y serenely at home and do hie fight
ing by proxy, if there be—on the testimony of Lloyd George—the
smallest dar.ger of tho battle of C heteau Thierry being lost on the
last count.”
On tho other hand, tho Now York Timfs sees groat
danger in the President going to tho Peace Conference.
Among other things it points out: •
"Commissioners tent to attend peaee conference receive instruc
tions and whta ere called full pow ere from the governments they rep
resent. Commissioners or delrgato s tent by the United States to the
coming peace conference ot Peris will reooive inelructione from tho
president. But President Wilson, outranking all appointed delegatee,
will himself attend the conference. There ie no one to instruct him.
Hie own opinions will be his inatr actions. It will not be nrdied, how
ever, that he goes to the eonfereno e os a representative of the govern
ment and the people of the United States His actions should be
guided, hie decisions controlled, by the will of the people he repre
sents.
"If, reconsiderin' hie unfo rtunato purpose to take personal
pert in the conference, the preeid nil should remain at Washington he
would be ill a way to inform luma* If of tho state of public opinion con
cerning tho terms of the final tree ty. He could ascertain what the
people thought, as Presidents do. by consultation with members of
the foreign affaire committee of th e senate end with other senator!
end representatives, by The speech of people, from the public press and
from the multitude of individual communications that flow into the
White House.. But how can Mr. Wileon. 3,000 miloa away, find out
what tho people think about the tr ssty? He will be in daily confer
ence with hit own eubordinatee, n II extraordinarily deferential to hir.
opinions. He it likely to learn litt Ie fron them. From the usual end
sufficient sourest of information as to tha public view in the United
States he will bo completely cut off. The seizure of the cables and
the alarming information given ou t at Washington as to the dissemi
nation of news of the conference raise doubts whether our people will
not alto be pretty effectually cut off from Paris.
“This nation does not know what Mr. Wileon, presenting him
self at its representative at the co nference, ie going to say or do. Ie
not the president putting Inmeelt in n position of some peril? Ques
tions at to the source from which ha de\vet hie full powers and hie
Instructions, should a delegate ot eome other power have the temer
ity to ask such questions, would be exceedingly awkward. Moreover,
guided only by hie own reasoning, for which undeniably the country
has profound respect, since it is usually to just and sound, conclu
sions reached by him at Paris and actually embodied in the treaty
might he rejected by tha senate of the United States in obedience to
public opinion formed here in the president’s absence. That would bo
deplorable, nobody wanta it to H»p pen."
The above are fairly typical of the arguments that will
rage pro and con as to the President's attending the Peace
Conference. But the main fact seems to he tnat the Presi
dent will attend and with the inspiring record of what lie*
has accomplished by his diplomacy to date, certainly the
American people could have no better representative, no
better champion of what Peace to the world and to this
nation must mean, than the man w'ho lias done so much to
clarrify the situation and to bring about the present result.
For our guess, we believe the American people, a vast ma
jority of them, at any rate, as well as a majority of the
peoples of the world, are glad that President Wilson in per
son will attend the Peace Conference.

Your mother Is right. Twelve is

WASHINGTON LETTER
*
What About Bill Hohenzollern?
Querry Peeves Dutch
Diplomats
B T~E~C, RODGERS.
WASHINGTON. D. C.
I went visiting, calling on Ho!!and-in-
Amerlca, to find out v. hat I could about
Holland playing host, to Bill Hozenzol
lern. Wanted to find out what Queen
Wllhelmlna’fi folks here thought of BUI
hiding from an outraged world behind a
woman’s skirts.
At 1401 Sixteenth street Is the Nether
lands legation. That’s Holland in the
United States. It is one of the most
Imposing buildings on a street chuck full
of mansions. It’s in the.heart of diplo
matic America.
Dr. August Phillips, envoy extraordl- I
nary and minis*, r plenipotentiary, was
out. Very much out. The polite youns
man at the door said he swaa over in
Holland.
“Will he nee Bill Hohenzollern over
there?" I asked.
The young man talked In semi-Dutch
(not f.erman) and it took him quite a
vhlle to savvy that I was referring to the
former kaiser The queen’s folks here
don’t call the ex-kaiser "Bill.**
Then I tried to pry some Information
about Bill's abiding place in Holland, and
what the Dutch were goi g to do with
that old reprobate, out of the rest of the
legation.
But I was harking up the wrong tree.
J>r. W. 11. de Beaufort, counselor, made
the sphinx look like a gab-fest by com
parison. Absolutely not a word.
Then I tackled the diplomat with the
longest name in Washington—a name so
long I*ll give It a separate paragraph,
thus •
Jonkheer A. W. L. Tjard;. van Star
kenbourgh-Stfichouwer.
The Jonkheer (Dutch for Junker. T’m
told) is attache of the legation. But I
didn't get half way through hi., name be
fore he had hacked out of the room with
a speed whicVi threatened to carry him
clear to the Potomac river by the time I
got to the last syllable,
Finally I did nail the secretary of the
legation, and as I had such rotten suc
cess with the last man's name I didn’t
| even try this one. Just sale “BUI Ho
henzollern? What Is Holland going to
do with him?"
And he told me this much:
“We cannot say. We know nothing
but what we read in the papers. We
haven’t heard from. Holland. We don’t
know If the former kaiser is Ir. Holland.
We don’t know Count Betlnck (Bill's

“Sometime back,” writes VV. T. Pal
mer, of Soperton, Ga., “I was in a run
down state My nerves were all torn
to pieces. It was an effort for me to
do iny work. I did not rest well at
nights. 1 frit tired when morning
came, and didn't feel like starting the
day. My skin was muddy. My appe
tite was poor. I felt very much in
need of a tonic. I thought it was the
lack of iron and decided to try Ziron,
as I heard there was no better tonic
made. I began taking it and can safe
ly and gladly say it did me a world of
good. Ziron is a good all-around tonic
for young and old. and makes one feel
that life is worth living.”

Learned the Real Value of Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy.
"We first learned of the true value of
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy several
years ago when we lived near Clifton
Bill, this State.” writes Mrs. James Ma
lone. Moberly, Mo. “At that time I had a
severe cold and an annoying cough. I got
a bottle of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy,
and after taking a few doses of it my
cough loosened up and my lungs felt bet
ter. I used one bottle of it and by then
my cold had entirely disappeared.”—Adv.
