LtnEpENnENCE ANn ORDER.

We must svmpathize with the feeling OF
France and Spain in regard 10 Morocco, that
in brief smooth words butter no parSnips- Apol-
ogies for disorder are plentiful. The Moor ls
almost as courteous and plausible as the Turk
But it is only mockery TO repeat that there
shall be order when there is no order. 1t is
said that the impression prevails in Paris that
the only effective thing to do is TO send a
strong punitive expedition 10 Fez itself. With
that impression there will be general sympathy.
and there will be satisfaction al the knowledge
that the French officer in command of the Casa
blanca expedition is one who has done effective
work In DahOmey and Tonquin- Morocco i
good deal like a combination Of those two de
lectable lands and should say his expert
ence in them would fit him to deal with it.
Independence is of course precious thing.
But so is order. The Independence Of the in
dividual does not last long when he enters upon
disorderly ways His person is then no longer
inyiolable He is coerced, perhaps confined
until he is ready and able and willing to ne
orderly and law abiding. We cannot see that
the inviolabiliIy Of the nation is exempt from
some qualified application of the same law.
A dsorderly nation or government is an inter
national nuisance just As much as a disorderly
man is A social nuisance. The nations of the
world have already exercised much patience
toward Morocco. They have spent much time
and labor and treasure In endeavOring 10 induce
and To enable that country to mend its ways.
All seems to have been in vain. The Moor is

dition as that Of Morocco to-day its title TO
Independence is morally forfeited. The sentence
of Beshazzar Is written against 1t. But they

sentence have need not Of lightheartcdncss nor
of precipitance but of the most serious dsCre-
ton that nations can exercise in the doing OF
the most serious work that falls 10 theif lot.

PROGRESS AT THE HAGUE

Fear that the conference al The Hague might
prove to be do-nothing assembly WAS never
very reasonably founded. and there is no
further excuse for il. Those fervent souls who
think the only proper function of the confer
ence Is to resolve that there shall be no more
soldiers and more war Will doubtless be dis
appointed But the vast ajority of rational
observers, including those who have complained
that il was paying more attention TO war than
TO peace must be convinced that the conference
has already, through its discussions, accom-
pIished much practical good and that 1t is now
making encouraging progress toward beneilcent
enactments. not only for mitigating the horrors
of war but alSo for averting the occurrence OF
war
4 gratifying step in this latter direction was
tasen last week, on American initiative, when
committee of the conference adopted by what we
may expect viii prove to have been a unanimous
vote the American proposal for the institution
of a permanent court OF arbitration at The
Hague Twenty-seven countries, including
nearly all the great powers. voted for it, and
not one against it, the other twelve merely alb
staining from voting, largely because the dele
gates had not received specific instructions from
their governments II seems probable that the
measure will be adopted by the whole confer
ence. In that case, instead of there being, as
AT present, merely permanent machinery for the
creation of special court Of arbitration, there
will be such a court in actual and continuous
existence There is a promise that five great
powers will unite to-day in presenting draft
of a constitution for such court, and, Of course,
much will depend upon its terms. But If, as j
intimates!, the proposed court is not to super
sede the present arrangement for special tri-
bunals but is merely To complement il, the per
manent court being used for purely jurtdicai
questions, while political disputes are reserved
for special arbitration. there will probably be
no objection Ia it, ANA there Will be secured
what NJ. Bourgeois calls "one Of the greatest
giores of the twentieth century.
