tainly in this case the statesmen who
conceived it hardly imagined that the
little bureau devised at its, origin only
for the distribution OF information on
the progress of the American repub-
I lies was to become such strong poll
itical bond between them. Yet the
| diplomatic representatives of the
American countries could not meet
regularly every month in the state de-
partment under the presidency of the
secretary of state without feeling and
imparting, to the world the impression
| of united America celebrating in
common. That impression will now
| necessarily increase hundred fold
with the magnificent gift Of Mr.. Car
negie, enabling us to raise in Washing
ton a worthy abode for the permanent
council of the American nations That
cannot fail to impress all of them with
greater sense of the affinities that
make already of all America in many
respects a single political body.
Panamericanisn, clviIizinq Force.
Well, and this is another Of the les
sons and prophecies of Panamerican-
ism; however limited the responsible
ity of each associated nation, we could
not form an international union with,
out being bound to greater mutual for
bearance, to mutual peace, and with
out being more and more permeated
by the influences which prove to be
the noblest around each of us. I have
a foreign friend now out Of the diplo-
matte service who thought once of
writing a book on Latin America to be
called "The Revolutionary Continent"
do not know if he secured copyright
for the title, but I think it would look
now an antiquated one It would not
be twentieth century's history. The
right OF revolution looks more and
/ more every day as reasonable a claim
as that of a child who insisted for the
4 absolute freedom Of entering into con-
/ vulsions. Revolution as a permanent
state is a very different thing from
revolutions incident to opposed evolu-
1 ton. The working together of the
American republics will give: to the
best elements they contain permanent
4 ascendency over the revolutionary
cells, which in order to survive need
i keeping up the fermentation. The
remedy for the state Of things which
a keeps revolution alive and in MANY
. cases would justify it, were it incap
able of creating order and liberty, lis

Panamericanism is a most potent fac
