Of the Windhan county candidates
marshaled the most votes in the
campaign against MIR. Grout in
1890. II is not especially important
but is Il little indication of the feeling

Every wayfaring man who has given
the slightest attention to The Hague
conference must have seen how small
part ethics played IN the congress
and how large was the part enacted
by material interests. AS to what ma
lions ought to do in their relations TO
each other we hear very little, but
what nations ought to prevent other
nations from doing we hear great
deal. How nations can preserve their
property without sacrificing their pres
tige became the only question at issue.
In other words, while international
morality took a back seat and let her
veil down business and politics came
to the front and embraced. There was
q tacit admission that the best way to
accomplish disarmament was to ac-
complish it in the twentieth century, to
leave the creation of a sentiment in ia
vor of peace to coming generations.
Each nation, with the single exception
of the United States, gave its whole at
tention to the business of finding out
how far Ii could 60 in preparing for
destruction without actually destroy
