The seed sown by this country nearly thirty
years ago is blossominG in promise II was in
1872, In the Geneva Convention, that tbe
United States established before the world the
principle OF international arbitration for the
settlement of international disputes. Since
that time this country has repeatedly and con
sistently sought that method Of adjusting its
controversies with other nations. and has
Loyalty accepted the result in every case,
whether favorable or unfavorable To itself.
The Peace Congress at The Hague in 1899
undertook the further. more permanent and
more completely organized establishment Of
the same principle. and in that body it was
largely the influence Of the United States that
restrained action from impossible lines and di-
rected il into practical channels.
To-day the outcome Of that Congress is made
manifest ana potential. The International
tribunal Of arbitration, easily the most au-
gust court ever organized in the world has
been formed and is now ready for business
We published yesterday ITS distinguished
roster. Fifteen nations. including all the great
Powers Of the world. arc represented in il.
and each wOrthily by one or more Of its
foremost sons The United States sends to
its bench one Of its ex-PresidentS, the Chief
Justice Of lis Supreme Court. rS Attorney
General and one Of the foremost Of its Federal
circuit judges. Austria Hungary sends a dele
cation beaded by the presiding iudc" Of its
highest court; Frances four are led hy one of
the best known eX-PremierS: Germany sends
the president OF an Imperial High Court and
three worthy colleagues: the British delesa
tion is led by Lord Pauncefote: the Italian
delegates include the foremost diplomat and
the highest judge in the Kingdom: Russia
sends its Minister Of Justice and the Procura
tor Of the Holy Synod, and the other nations are
comparahly well represented.
We cannot venture TO expect from this the
entire aud immediate abolition of There
are many nations unrepresented in the court
and outside Its jurisdiction, and there are
some disputes which nations will not submit
Ia arbitration. Bur We may reasonably look
for more prompt and equitable settlement Of
many international controversies than would
have been possible before. and for an increased
thought Of arbitration rather than war as 4
means Of such settlement. which latter will
greatly make for the maintenance of peace
