Address Of John W. Foster.

We congratulate ourselves on the
assembling of the twelfth annual con
ference of International Arbitration
today with the reign of peace among
all nations of the earth. The hopeful
promise now j.. not only that peace
reigns, but that the nations are striv-
ing to preserve peace. The third
meeting of the American States Is
about to occur at Rio Janeiro to CON
cert measures for greater harmony in
their work of developing commerce.
industry. intelligence and justice. and
il is proposed that this assembly
in the Western Hemisphere shall be
followed soon by another conference
of all the nations of the world at The
Hague in the interest of peace and
humanity. The gratifying feature of
this second conference in Europe Is
that it is responded TO with alacrity
by all the governments. in striking
contrast with the hesitation and ieal-
ousy which marked the first convo-
cation. 1t will be the first time in the
history of the human race when all
the Independent nations have come to-

A WIFE MURDERER.
Man Found Guilty of First Degree
Murder at Sallisaw.

Nmita. |. T.. May 5O-Rohert Cot
ION. a negro, was found guilty of muir.
der in TIE first decree last week be-.
fore Judge Parker at Sallisaw. The
penaty for his crime will be hang
in.. The man offense was partic-
MA ly atrocious He killed his wife.
Cynthia Cottons stabbing her seven
teen times, and.Iiterally cutting her
to pieces.
If the death ,ent nee is carried out
Cotton will be hanged at Ninita,
probably in the fall. There has never
been a hanging IN the northern dis
trict, and only one man. also a negro
has ever been convicted of first degree
murder. All preparations had been
made for his hanging when a reprieve
WAS received from the president ami
ia'er hs sentence was commuted 10
lie imprisonment.
II is thought, however, that the
sentence ON Cotton will be carried
out, in view Of the enolmity of his
offenSc. The law provides that the
hanging must be done by the United
States marshal or one Of his deputies
Geo. Tyree, % years old, has been
found guilty of manslaughter at Sail
isaw. He is the son of William ii
Tyree, of Walnut Grove, Ark, and
comes of a prominent family. He kill
ed cotton planter near SalIisaw
last January in a dispute over wages
There are three more murder eases
to be disposed of by Judge Parker at
Sallsaw. The Stewart case was be
gun this morning and two Others are
to follow, the White and the Nann
cases. II is hardly probable that the
court will be able to finish the work
this week. and if not, Judge Gill will
complete the docket next week, as
Judge Parker must open court here on
June 4.

Congressman Bartholdt Address

The people are >martlng under the
inactivity and the cold, unsympath-
ctlc attitude of many of the great
governments, which. of course, it is
easy to explain on the theory that the
possession Of power always begets the
desire for It's mrcstlamed exercise
Today the sovereign power of nations
is still mrcstrained by what is called
international law, which, however, has
never received legislative sane
tion. We want 10 curtail this
sovereign power IN the interest
of the peace of the world, by compact
among the nations the same as natur-
al law has been curtailcd by a com
pact among individuals. The question
is, how can this attitude Of the great
powers be changed 1t must be carri-
ed into practical politics. 1t must be
made a political issue
There are countries. VI is true,
whose governments cannot well be
reached or moved by popular demands
but it so happens that the most pro
cressive are also the most influential,
and il the government of the United
States. Great Britain and France,
which are responsive to the voice of
the people. because dependent upon
il. can be induced to champion our
ideas in international councils, all the
others. it is safe to say. will fall in
line. and our battle will be won
When The Hague conference meets
the Interparliamentary Union will be
ready to lay before it a program of
how to prepare for peace. 1t will
voice the wishes, the hopes. the aspi-
rations of the people expressed thru
their representatives in the different
parliaments. The second Hague con-
ference is to be transformed into an
