''"he British public is watching Arftus-o.vod Arftus-o.vod the Sturm which the 1,-im'iie is luif-b'litiK luif-b'litiK in the roiled States senate. It is mueh exercised to know what the outcome out-come will 1. wh.-n the storni subsides. But whether the leaRue is shipwrecked on the .shoals of senatorial opposition, whether it arrives in a somewhat battered bat-tered eotalition in the harbor of compromise, com-promise, OI. whether It omciytes intact and unscathed, whatever its fate, the confidence of Kiicjand is unmistakably ' Mrone i the belief that no chain,',' wiil ! he occasioned in the feellncs of sympathy and irood will at present existing between the two countries. Tbouith opinion is divided as to the causes for the temporary rejection of the peace treaty and covenant, as drafted at the Baris conference, the idea seems larLrely to pievail that America knows what she is doinir. and that, thotlKh her srowinn- spirit of nationalism may still make a policy of Ipolation necessary, she would not In the event of einorKcney fail to ally herself on the side of justice and ripht. as she did in l!H7.

Cm the con- j trary. many Britishers argue in Justification Justifi-cation of such action on various grounds, even though they strongly feel at the j san.e time the disadvantage, to which they will he put by not having the Len-etit Len-etit of American consultation at the council table. The sentiment is universally f'-lt and i expressod that nothing but the deep, st I j friendship should animate both countries in their mutual ro-lations, and that now. i as never before In their joint history, every ev-ery means available should bo utilized lor the purpose of making the ties of that friendship indissoluble. As a tangible expression of this idea.
