The silver city Entertainment.

The entertainment and dance
given in Silver City last evening
for the benefit of the school was a
very enjoyable affair. It was large
ly attended and a neat little sum
was raised for the purpose of pur-
chasing an organ for the school.
The following programme was ex-

prevents making special mention:

THE COMING CONFERENCE.

England. realizing the force Of the
Sherman letter, has at last sent some
| vessels 10 help in the patrolling OF the
Berins sea against seal poaching. But
the English papers still claim that the
conference which Great Britain has
agreed to participate in, at Washington,
is but an advisory affair without au-
thority. If this were true, better no
conference. But the authorities at
Washington in asking for the confer
ence laid down its scope and just what
was proposed TO be accomplished by it.
This is now known, and the British
government IN consenting to II, did so
with the full understanding that it Will
be the duty Of that body to consider the
whole seal question In all its ramitica-
tons 1t will inquire whether the seal
herds are in danger of extinction by
unlawful fishing; whether the treaty
agreements between the United States
and Great Britain are properly carried
out; whether either or both of these gov
ernments are faithfully discharging the
Obligations imposed upon them by the
Paris conference; whether the Berfng
sea patrol ordered by that tribunal has
been faithfully maintained by each Of
the interested nations, and, finally
whether any further measures of pro-
lection are required to save the seal
fisheries from destruction. In other
words, the conference will be empOw-
cred to consider the entire subject In its
broadcast aspect, without regard to any
prior transactions concerning il, and If,
after hearing all the evidence, addition
al safeguards for the seal herds are
found TO be necessary, the confereeS are
authorized TO embody them in 4 general
treaty which Is then 10 be submitted for
ratification by all the nations directly
concerned.
Russia and Japan, as well as Canada,
possess interests of growing import
ance in the North Pacific. Every one
with the Unitei States in maintaining
international equity, amity and treaty
rights and duties in those waters. For
this reason a tribunal representing the
United States, Canada, Great Britain,
Russia and Japan, sitting in Washing
ton TO consider what measures. if any,
are required to save the seal interest
from destruction by lawless means will
possess high and hopeful significance.
The United States was very sure of
its grounds before making demands.
Hence the pointedness of the Sherman
letter, which IN being full of truth only
asked for the evident right. The United
States will go into that conference back
ed with facts which will command re-
spect and final justice. The position OF
our country IS incontrovertible; that of
the Canadian government under Brit
ish consent, one of piracy.
