Aid Sister Republics

Let us pledge ourselves to aid each
other in the full performance of the
duty to humanity which that accepted
declaration implies, so that in time the
weakest and most unfortunate of our
republics may come to march with
equal step by the side of the stronger
and more fortunate. Let us help each
other to show that for all the races of
men the liberty for which we have
fought and labored is the twin sister
of justice and peace. Let us unite In
creating and maintaining and making
effective an all-American public opin-
ion, whose power shall influence inter-
national conduct and prevent interna-
tional wrong, and narrow the causes
of war, and forever preserve our free
lands from the burden Of such arma-
ments as are massed behind the from
tiers of Europe, and bring US ever
nearer to the perfection of ordered lib
erty. SO shall come security and pros
perity, production and trade, wealth,
learning, the arts and happiness for US

Praises Enlisted Men

/ do not believe that in any service
there is a finer body of enlisted men
and of junior officers than we have in
both the army and the navy, including
the marine corps. All possible encOur-
agement to the enlisted men should be
given, in pay and otherwise, and every
thing practicable done to render the
service. attractive to men of the right
type. They should be held to the
strictest discharge of their duty, and
IN them a spirit should be encouraged
which demands not the mere perform
ance of duty. but the performance of
far more than duty IL it conduces to
the honor and the interest OF the Amer
lean nation; and in return the amplest
consideration should be theirs.
West Point and Annapolis already
turn out excellent officers. We do not
need to have these schools made more
scholastic. On the contrary, we should
never lose sight of the fact that the
aim of each school is to turn out a
man who shall be above everything
else a lighting man. In the army in
particular it is not necessary that
either the cavalry or infantry officer
should have special mathematical abil-
ity. Probably in both schools the best
standard of character and of profess
sional morale which it confers-
But in both services there is urgent
need for the establishment of a prin-
ciple of selection which will eliminate
men after a certain age if they can
not be promoted from the subordinate
ranks, and which will bring into the
higher ranks fewer men, and these
at an earlier age

This principle of selection will be
objected to by good men of mediocre
capacity who are fitted to do well
while young in the lower positions.
but who are not fitted to do well when
at an advanced age they come into
positions of command and of great re-
sponsibilty. But the desire of these
men to be promoted to positions which
they are not competent to fill should
not weigh against the interests of the
navy and the country. At present our
men, especially in the navy, are kept
far too long in the junior grades, and

often not attaining these senior grades
until they are too old to be of real
use in them; and IL they are of real
use, being put thru them so quickly

all.

over the army in the fact that the

Promote Good Feeling

That the third International Ameri-
can conference shall address to the
Presidents of the United Statesssof
America and of the United States of
Mexico note in which the conference
which is being held at Rio expresses it's
satisfaction at the happy results Of
their mediation for the celebration of
peace between the republics of Guate-
mala, Honduras and Salvador"
This affords an excellent example of
one way in which the influence of the
United States can properly be exercised
for the benefit of the peoples of the
western hemisphere-that is, by action
republics. and therefore free from those
attach if the action were taken by one
alone. In this way it is possible TO
exercise a powerful influence toward
the substitution of considerate action
in the spirit of justice for the insur-
rectionary or international violence
which has hitherto been so great
hindrance to the development of many
Of our neighbors. Repeated examples
of united action by several or many
American republics in favor OF peace
by urging cool and reasonable, in
stead of'excited and belligerent, treat
ment of international controversies,
cannot fail to promote the growth of
general public opinion among the
American nations which will elevate
the standards of international action,
strengthen the sense of international
duty among governments and tell in
favor of the peace of mankind.

Canadians Guilty
of Pelagic Sealing

The destruction of the Pribilof ISL
ands fur seals by pelagic sealing still
continues. The herd which, according
to the surveys made in 1874 by direc-
ton of the Congress, numbered AGO.
600, and which, according to the survey
of both American and Canadian COM
missioners in 1891, amounted to 1,00O.-
000 has now been reduced to about
100000. This result has been brought
about by Canadian and some other seal
ing vessels killing the female seals
while in the water during their annual
pilgrimage to and from the south or in
search of food. AS a rule, the female
seal when killed is pregnant, and also
has an unweaned pup on land, so that
for each skin taken by pelagic sealing
as rule, three lives are destroyed
the mother, the unborn offspring and
the nursing pup, which is left to starve
to death. No damage whatever is done
to the herd by the carefully regulated
killing on land; the custom of pelagic
sealing is solely responsible for all of
the present evil, and is alike indefensi-
BILE from the economic standpoint and
from the standpoint of humanity
In 1896 over 10000 young seals were
found dead from starvation on s*the
Pribilof Islands. In 1897 it was esti-
mated that since pelagic sealing began

signed by the United States as well as
by most of the powers of Europe, SUI
persedes the previous convention Of
1880, which was also signed both by
the United States and a majority of
the European powers. This treaty con-
fers upon us equal commercial rights

not entail a single obligation of any
kind upon us, and l earnestly hope 1t
may be speedily ratified. To refuse to
ratify 1T would merely mean that we
forfeited our commercial rights. in
Morocco and would not achieve another
object of any kind. In the event Of
such refusal we would be left for the
first time in 120 years without any
commercial treaty with Morocco, and
this at time when we are everywhere
seeking new markets and outlets for
trade.

Navy Peace Guarantor

The United States navy is the surest
guarantor of peace which this coun-
try possesses. 1t is earnestly to be
wisht that we would profit by the
teachings of history in this matter.
A strong and wise people will study
it's own failures no less than it's tri-
umphs, for there is wisdom to be
learned from the study of both. of the
mistake as we'll as of the success. For
this purpose nothing could be more in
structive than a rational study of the
war of 1912, as 1t is told, for instance,
by Captain Mahan. There was only
one way in which that war could have
been avoided. If during the preceding
twelve years a navy relatively as
strong as that which this country now
has had been built up, and an army
provided relatively as good as that
which the country now has, there
never would have been the slightest
necessity of fighting the war: and If
the necessity had arisen the war would
under such circumstances have ended
with our speedy and overwhelming tri-
umph. But our people during those
twelve years refused to make any
preparations whatever, regarding
either the army or navy. They saved
a million OF two of dollars by so do
ing; and in mere money paid hun
dredfold for each million they thus
saved during the three years of war
which followed-a war which brought

to unnecessary and unjustifiable war
fare. We regret that other powers,
whose opinions and sense of justice
we esteem highly, have at times taken
different view and have permitted
themselves, tho we believe with reluct-
ance, to collect such debts by force.
1t is doubtless true that the non-pay-
ment of public debts may be accom-
panied by such circumstances of fraud
and wrongdoing or violation of treaties
as to justify the use of force. This
Government would be glad to see an
international consideration of the SUBJ
ject which shall discriminate between
such cases and the simple non-perform-
ance of contract with private per-
son, and a resolution in favor Of reli-
ance upon peaceful means in cases of
the latter class.

Republics Learn to
Work in Harmony

The Second international Conference
Of American Republics, held in Mexico
in the years 1902, provided for the
boiling Of the third conference within
ive years, and committed the fixing
4 the time and place and the arrange
ments for the conference to the gov
erning board Of the Bureau OF Amer
ican Republics composed of the rep
resentatives Of all the American ma
tons in Washington. That board dis
charged the duty imposed upon 1t with
marked fidelity and painstaking care.
and upon the courteous invitation OF
the United States Of Brazil, the con-
ference was held at Rio de Janeiro,
continuing from the 23d of July to the
2sth Of August last. Many subjects
Of common interest to all the Amer
lean nations were DISGUST by the con-
ference, and the conclusions reached,
embodied in a series Of resolutions
and proposed conventions, will be laid
before you upon the coming in Of the
final report of the American dele
gates. They contain many matters of
Importance relating to the extension
Of trade. the increase of communica-
ton, the smoothing away of barriers
to free intercourse, and the promotion
OF a better knowledge and good under
standing between the different coun-
tries represented. The meetings of the
conference were harmonious and the
conclusions were reached with sub
stantiai unanimity. 1t is interesting
to observe that in the successive con-
ferences which have been held the
representatives of the different Amer
lean nations have been learning to
work together effectively, for, while
the First Conference in Washington in
1889. and the Second Conference in
-
months, with much time wasted in
unregulated and fruitless discussion,
the Third Conference at Rio exhibited
much OF the facility in the practical
dispatch of business which character
ICES permanent deliberative bodies, and
completed its labors within the pc
Rod of six weeks originally allotted
fnr its sessions.

Regulations Faulty

The Boring Sea tribunal, which sat
in Paris in 1893 and which declded
against the claims of the United states
to exclusive jurisdiction in the wages
of Bering Sea and to property right
in the fur seals when outside OF the
three-mile limit, determined also upon
certain regulations which the tribunal
considered sufficient for the proper
protection and preservation of the fur
seal in, or habitually resorting to, the
Boring Sea. The tribunal by its regu-
lations established a close season, from
the 1st of May to the 31st of July, and
excluded all killing in the waters with
in sixty miles around the Prfb1lof ISL
ands. They also provided that the reg
ulations which they had determined
upon. with view to the protection
and preservation of the seals, should
be submitted every five years to new
examination, so as to enable both in
terested governments to consider
whether, in the light of past expert
ence, there was occasion for any modi-
fication thereof.
The regulations have proved plainly
inadequate to accomplish the object or
protection and preservation of the fur
seals. and for a long time this Govern
ment has been trying in vain to secure
from Great Britain such revision and
modification Of the regulations as were
contemplated and provided for by the
award of the tribunal OF Paris.

Central American War

1T is not felt, however, that the con-
ference al Rio should undertake to
make such a discrimination or to re-
solve upon such rule Most of the
American countries are still debtor ma
tons, while the countries of Europe
are the creditors. If the Rio confer
ence, therefore, were to take such ac-
ton 1t would have the appearance of a
meeting of debtors resolving how their
creditors should act and this would
not inspire respect. The true course is
indicated by the terms of the program,
which proposes to request the second
Hague conference, where both creditors
and debtors will be assembled, to con-
slider the subject"
Last June trouble which had existed
for some time between the republics
of Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras
eliminated in a war-a war which
threatened to be ruinous to the coun-
tries involved and very destructive to
the commercial interests OF Americans,
MeXicans and other foreigners who
are taking an important part in the
development of these countries. The
thoroly good understanding which ex-
lists between the United States and
Mexico enabled this Government and
that of Mexico to unite in effective me-
diation between the warning republics,
which mediation resulted rot without
long-continued and patient effort, in
bringing about meeting of the rep
resentatives of the hostile powers on
board a United States warship as neu-
trail territory, and peace was there
concluded peace which resulted in
the saving of thousands of lives and in
the prevention of an incalculable
amount of misery and the destruction
of property and of the means of liveli-
hood. The Rio conference past the fol-
lowing resolution in reference to this
action.

Strive for Peace

We should as nation do everything
in our power for the cause of honor
able peace 1t is morally as indefen-
sible for a nation to commit wrong
upon another nation, strong or weak,
as for an individual thus to wrong
his fellows. We should do all in our
power to hasten the day when there
shall be peace among the nations-a
peace based upon justice and not upon
cowardly submission to wrong. We
can accomplish a good deal in this d.
rection, but we cannot accomplish
everything, and the penalty of at
tempting to do too much would al
most Inevitably be to do worse than
nothing: for 1t must be remembered
reality leaders of the causes which
they espouse, but are ordinarily those
who do most to hamper the real lead
ers of the cause and to damage the
cause itself. AS yet there is no likeli-
hood of establishing any kind of in
ternational power, of whatever sort,
which can effectively check wrong
doing. and in these circumstances II
would be both a foolish and an evil
thing for a great and free nation to
deprive itself of the power to pro-
tect It's own rights and even in ex-
ceptional cases to stand UP for the
rights of others. Nothing would more
promote iniquity, nothing would fur
Their defer the reign upon earth of
peace and righteousness, than for the
free and enlightened peoples which,
tho with much stumbling and many
shortcomings, nevertheless strive to-
ward justice, deliberately to render
themselves powerless while leaving
every despotism and barbarism armed
and able to work their wicked will.
The chance for the settlement of dis
putes peacefully by arbitration. now
depends mainly upon the possession by
the nations that mean to do right Of
sufficient armed strength to make their
