SCHOOL OF DIPLOMACY
Continued from page a

Government little more than hundred
years old. We cannot expect to break
down formalities that are the growth of
centuries. We may improve. upon them,
diplomacy may be made more frank and
truthful but its finesse must be retained,
and the close human touch with the men
who direct affairs never relaxed. This
brings us to the real service of the diplo-
mat, to an answer to the old question:
Chi bono?
Ambassadors of the proper kind are the
most important members of the executive
machinery of modern government. Much
as they may be in evidence or display at
public functions, such, for example, as
an international reunion at the Elysee
or the Guildhall, their chief duty is to
keep their home ministry or cabinet in
personal touch at the foreign Offices of
the nations to which they are accredited.
The ambassadors post is that of an OBJ
server. His person is sacred, his resi-
dence is regarded as foreign territory
while he is in occupation, to be guarded
from invasion by every form of force that
the sheltering nation can extend to a
friendly guest An efficient ambassador
should know to the slightest details the
foreign policy of the nation that accords
him hospitality. He never must allow
his own chief to be taken unawares. He
should be as keen to foresee the trend of
events, to comprehend the aims, am
billions or preparations of the ministry
or cabinet he has under observation, as
is the doyen among his associates-the
oldest and shrewdest head among them,
if you please As is said in the journal
istic world, He must have a nose for
news" and must not be beaten" He
must be a student of the philosophy of
contemporaneous events of history, as
it is making under his eyes. If he lacks
any of these qualities, he will prove
inefficient and should not be where
he is
The late Lord Pauncefote was an ideal
diplomatist. Without prejudice to any
body, he possessed more of these quail
ties than any ambassador or minister
have ever known. And his transcend
ent prominence was due to the maintcn-
ance of friendly personal relations with
everybody in Washington worth know
ing. He gave admirable dinners, made
his round of calls with studied punctual-
ity and never forgot anything he heard
which ought to be remembered. There
fore, he accomplished many things which
less skilful British representative would
have failed to achieve.
The HayPauncefote treaty never
would have been concluded had not the
energies of this clever, strong personality
been exercised upon the Senate. At the
time, doubt if any member of that body
was conscious of the arguments in behalf
of the treaty that were casually pre-
sented or of the objections which were
deity answered across the ambassadors
board. The subject never was obtruded;
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1905-07-09

it always appeared to come up so natur-
ally as not to attract notice to the pre-
conceived intent that it should form part
of the conversation. That was the art
of diplomacy.
In course of the Boer War, sporadic out
breaks of sympathy for the struggling
heroes on the veldts of South Africa APP
peared in and out of Congress. Lord
Pauncefote redoubled his activity. Never
did he give SO many or such excellent
dinners He deplored the imperative
necessity of inevitable subsection. He
extolled, always, the bravery of the Beers
adding in the next breath that heroes
in warfare, once they were fairly and
honorably defeated, made the most loyal
citizens thereafter. Then he would cap
ture Southern vote by extolling the
valor of the men who fought for the cause
of the Confederacy, and point the moral
that nowhere in this broad land were
hearts more truly loyal to-day than
among the men who wore the gray. The
next bit of fnesse, as likely as not, would
be a pat upon the back, metaphorically,
for some prominent Senator who was not
present but who was sure to be told of the
ambassadors compliment. Sympathy
for the Beers never gained ground at
Washington, despite the efforts of several
good takers on the floor of the House
This was due to Pauncefote's ceaseless
activity 1t was worth doing, and he
did it thoroughly.
The United States must prepare for the
great change of its position in the family
of h1a hot FOR
paid and be chosen with the one eye to
efficiency. Party must not have an
influencing voice in the selection. If the
best man for a difficult foreign post is of
another party, the President should not
hesitate to appoint or the Senate to con-
firm. Mere ability to support the ne
cessary extravaCancics of such a station
at the snowy court functions, or to main
tain an establishment at the capital that
costs five times the amount of salary paid
by this Government, should not influence
an appointment. That may do for Siam,
or Afghanistan, or Persia, or Turkey;
but for the mighty powers of Continental
Europe we want men-rnen of brains, men
of courage, and chief of all requisites, men
of experience. They must be the pro-
duct of growth, of development gained
in the only school whereat they can be
taught.
The creation of an academy, under the
control of the State Department, like
the two great institutions at West Point
and Annapolis, is an impossibility-
Diplomacy cannot be learned in a class
room. 1t must be life-work, and the
men who show diligence and ability in its
requirement should be pushed to the
front and given large hand in shaping
the destiny of our country.
That is the school of diplomacy that
/ mean, its curriculum to be the book of
human life and of national destiny.

"President Raosevelts message is
one of the greatest LA Toilette docu-
ments that has ever appeared, II the
governor is great enough to sie2e the
opportunity.
"The president sings sweet and low
on the rate question. His previous
talk has been Of d iilerent charac-
ter He backs down on the tariff
question. Where are those vigorous
aud grandiloquent words concerning
campaign contributions by favor
seeking corporations that were pre-
dicted by his friends ?
at is for La Toilette to stand out
rs the champion of the people. 1t is
La Toilette that has the splendid OPP
portunity To make himself the leader
in the national reform movement.
Nothing like it has come to IA public
man in half century. Rarely, in-
deed. does it com. TO any man."
This is seemingly nice jingle, u
friendly word for La Toilette, until
one stops to consider. la Toilette Il
child Of luck! Bosh He is one of
the great self-made men of the day.

have made him what he is, not luck

and putting it where it belongs, IN
the hands of the people.
The difficulties Of such a reform
have been considerably increased by
an unseemly scramble for the empty
honors of office on the part Of his
own friends. IT is IN the lnire Of SUCH
contention that the central princi-
Piles Of patriotism and right conduct
of affairs are often lost sight OF by
the best Of men.
In his message the governor an.
nounces that he will resign his Office
before the session is through and ac-

plainly to every fair mind that his
heart Is in the work OF reform here
him Of being just as dishonest and
hypocritical in his public life and
purpose as they have always been.
From their standpoint, that Is n fair
judgment, but the people know bet

In the senate, la Toilette will set
his face toward justice to the people
Just as resolutcly AS he has as COVER
nor. He must be patient, for the en-
emies of the people are strongly en-
trenched in that body. But they be-

men who will serve the people and
