RESIDENT ROOSEVELT,
who has in times past been
criticized by such a person
age as Miss Jane Adams for
emphasizing the fighting
man as the heroic ideal, has

recently set his seal of approval on the
peace movement by acceding to the re-
quest of the Interparliamentary union
that he invite the reassembling of The
Hague conference.
1t is five years ago there was held the
epoch-making Hague conference, where
came together e. company of 100 men in
the interests Ola universal peace feder-
alton Mr. Edward Everett Hale, an
American enthusiast in the movement
towards bringing about world peace,
speaks CT that assemblage of men in
this manner: "'rhc oest informed hun
dred men, and, on the whole, the hundred
men least prejudjCed, who have ever
sat down to one pose since the world
began"
The cars proposal for peace con-
ference was communicated to the for
eign representatives in ST. Petersburg
August "a, 1898, in circular commonly
known as the cars irencon. Response
was ready, and seemingly sympathetic,
on the part of all the governments, and
promise given that delegates would be
sent to represent the several nations. 1t
was decided that some quiet place be
chosen for the meeting, not great polit-
ical center, and The Hague was selected
by the car as fulfilling the require
ments. In getting out the invitations
for this meeting poor Netherlands had
to deal with delicate questions that be-
set every would-be hostess, had to hest
tate as to whether this guest would

Of immigration methods-observations made in

innigrant-have reached their conclusion in
the literary sense IN the current number of
'Leslie's Monthly Magazine" The remedy
which he suggests for all the evils of immigra-
ton is that until such time as treaties can be
concluded with immigrant producing countries
the immigrants be examined in their home dis

three American inspectors. chosen subject to
the rules Of the Civil Service. The work Of &C

Mr. J. E. C. Bodley. himself an Englishman,
does not think that his countrymen pursue the
right methods in the observation Of foreign life.
He says in his introduction to N. Emile Bout

Britons who are not casual pleasure seekers,
but are settled in foreign lands for serious pur-
poses, sometimes are as insensible to the local
and national interest Of what is going on around
them as are the holiday makers and amateurs
Of climate in a watering place" We imagine
that the same thing might justly be said of
people Of other races living in foreign land.
Mr., Bodley adds:
once asked me to give him aid in a tour he
was undertaking, in order to make a report to the
Education Office upon certain category OF schools
IN provincial France. He informed me that bishop
had given him for this purpose letters of intro
