Result of Universal Sentiment.

Senior Velasco said, In part:
THE idea of international arbitration is
not the creation of one man nor of any set
of men, however eminent they may be, but
it is the result of universal sentiment In
ternational arbitration has at the present
time three forms: "a Arbitration in it's
nature transitory and for determined mat
tiers; co compensatory clauses inserted in
treaties to decide the questions which the
Interpretation and execution of the treaty
may give rise to; CD permanent and OBJ
lfgatory arbitration. Treaties of aroitra-
ton in these three forms have increased in
number progressively, especially in the
first two forms. The last form is the one
which offers the most resistance and vari-
Gus attempts made to establish permanent
arbitration have proven failures.
There are two difficulties which beset
arbitration in these present times, the re-
sistance on the part of some governments
to permanent arbitration and the difficulty
of giving judicial form to questions of a
political nature. The tribunal of The
Hague, created by the collective action of
nency and with rules of procedure pre-
viously defined, has in its support great
moral force and presents all the advan-
tages and all the facilities which constf-
tuted tribunals offer 1t Is tribunal open
to all who ask its judgment. and its exam
pies and its practices Will be an induce
ment to all the nations to intrust to 1t
their difficulties for settlement"

Future of International Law.
Repeated references to The Hague court
and other like tribunals have a tendency to
render fixed and certain the now somewhat
nebulous science known as international
law. At present nations clash upon their

varying views of the duties of states toward
each other, and even resort to arms to
tain them When the law has. therefore,
itself become fixed and it's limitations and
boundaries defined in the most authoritative
manner through frequent resort to The
Hague court, we may expect international
disputes to lessen in number and in sever
ity and nations finally learn that even in
so-called questions of national honor they
are not themselves the proper judges.
In discussing The Hague court one must
not lose sight of the essential fact that the
very existence of court has an important
effect upon the relations of nations Neu-
trail powers may always remind those whose
passions are rising that the court is open.
while nations disposed to resort to war are
commencing to feel that case justifying
appeal to arms before attempt to obtain
a judicial settlement must be very strong
and even if cannon are made the arbiters.
the moral sense of mankind must be salts

Stedman.
''The cotton crop will be a large
one as there has been a very large
increase in acreage. l think we have
labor sufficient to care for the crop.
ION the other hand the tobacco
crop Will be over 60 per cent less than
last year, and this because of the eX-
ceedingly low price of tobacco. If
it had not have been for good prices
for cotton the past season, the price OF
tobacco would have ruined us.
Hon. John d. Bellamy, Of Will
mington was in the city yesterday
having come to have Incorporated The
Waccamaw Land ana Lumber :om-
