League of Nations Treaty Debate Prompts Mixed Hope
The article argues the league constitution has been amended enough to be workable though imperfect. It questions whether nations still rebuilding should join before peace treaties are finalized and warns of risks if off-reservation powers refuse. It remains cautiously pro league while doubting real armament control.

Bystanders at Large Describe Town Life After War
A rambling bystander piece notes cooler weather keeps locals indoors, jokes about neighbors from Maine, and jokes about cattle herding and wages. It jokes about fortifications on Range Ridge and urges street railway extension while riffing on local characters and Ford driving Judge Campbell.
Sid’s Wire Standoff Ends With Return to Owners
The piece describes Sid surrendering control of the wires after a period of entanglements and shelling, with reports he will let owners reclaim them tomorrow. The broader question remains what purpose the wire barrage served after the war, and whether Burleson remains in Wilson’s circle on a vindication platform, though a solid title to his position seems unlikely.
