Officials Pesamistic Regarding Dis

Washington. Jan. 9.-Inquiry at the State Dc
partment shows that for many months this gov
eminent has refrained from making any direct
overtures to Russia TO the Dutch government
for reassembling of the Hague conference This
inaction II is explained was not the result Of any
lack of interest IN the subject for President Roose-

ond Hague conference by his circular Amer
lean diplomatic representatives abroad in 1905.
though subsequently yielded the guidance of the
movement 10 the car of Russia, In recognition OF
the fact that he had fathered the original Hague
conference.
When Russia list 81 rIlE proposed that the sec
ond conference be held at The Hague IN the late
summer. early fall, the American government
obliged request that a later date be selected
because Secretary Root who deeply interested
in the peace movement, under engagement to
attend the Congress Of American Republics while
many Of the delegates that conference were also
named by their own governments 70 represent them
ct the Hague conference. To insist upon the date
originally contemplated for the Hague conference
would therefore have seriously interfered with the
Rio conference. and in difference wish of the
United States TIE Russian government announced
that later date for the Hague conference would
be acceptable to it, proposition to which all the
signatory powers assented.
Having secured this concession, the State De-
partment felt some delicacy about suggesting an
other date for the peace conference preferring to
leave that TO some other government. At first it
believed that the conference could be held dur
ing the present winter, but this the Dutch gov
ernnent objected the ground that its legislative

size OF the projected conference would necessarily
be occupied by the Dutch General in its reg

separation has been signed There has been no
reconciliation and there is not likely to be- although

WATTS CARS ACTION
PEACE CONFERENCE DATE
Germany Ready but Not WaIng tc
Discuss Disarmament

Berlin, Jan. 9--The German government has
been ready for months 10 send delegates to the
second TEsce conference at The Hague, but no
htnt came from st. Petersburg regarding the
date Of the meeting. and as Germany has never
taken the initiative in peace conference mat
tiers there is a feeling that If an inquiry is to
be made Of Emperor Nicholas concerning the
probable date Of the meeting it ought TO come
from some other government, the United States
for instance, which made the first move in this
matter or Great Britain. whose Premier takes
a deep personal interest in the conference
The Russian governments silence the sub
Ject is regarded o. probably being due to its
preoccupadon with internal affairs and its hesi
tation to enter the conference until it is seen
how the new parliament acts, and whether de-
nestle quiet is fairly restored. Gernany's chief
delegate will be ambassador, but decision
has been made to which of the eight
bassadors will be selected. The second delegate

vision Of the Foreign Office, who recently was
appointed a member Of the International Arbi-
tration Tribunal Of The Hague.
The question Of the suspension of armaments
which is attracting attention in the United
States. country, 1t is pointed out here, far
removed from the European military organiza-
tions, and in Great Britain, whose paramount
power and insular position make her inde-
pendent of Continental combinations. is, it is
said here. one that can scarcely be discussed by
responsible German statesmen without impa-
thence. The declaration of the French Premier.
NJ Cfemenceau. regarding the necessity that
France be prepared for instant is consid
cred by the German government expressing
the temper Of the present French adnlinistra-
ton and being alone a sufficient indication
OF the fact that the limitation of arnlaments by
agreement is yet within the bounds of prac-
tical craftsmanship.
AS the programme TO be submitted to the
ond peace conference at The Hague is already
large and rich in possibilities of agreements it
is felt here that ii would be better to concen-
trate the attention of the delegates on such
questions as the rights Of private property

strengthening of the International Arbitration

Drinking Officials Stumbling Blocks

President Jordan of Leland Stan
ford University, recently said;
"The time is coming when.politics
will be the only profession open to
the Incorporate man. Railroads,
steamships, and business men
won't have him"
Slowly but surely the "boozy"
official is being weeded out, along
with the drinking athletic, railroad
man, naval and military cadet,
bank clerk and skilled mechanic.
One candidate for the presidency
has been eliminated by a cocktail.
Another has taken pains to pub
fish his temperance principles.
Only a few years ago the principal
duty of a candidate was to pass
around the drinks.
The notorious s~alutation of the
Governor of North Carolina to the
Governor of South Carolina, "It's
a long time between drinks" re-
ceived another hard jar at the
jamestown Exposition. The Gov
ernor of Connecticut introduced
the two Carolina Governors. AS
they were shaking hands, Cover
nor Woodruff, 'of Connecticut, re-
marked, "We are waiting to hear
the characteristic Southern invita-
ton repeated" Governor Ansel,
Of South Carolina, replied, "Youi
Excellency, as / am a prohibition

''Baek to the Bible" Hastens the
March ION to Washington"


Mrs. Stevens marching order,
son to Washington" while timely
and feasible, smacks of the mill
tary, of the forceful, the compul-
sorry. The stress of the times,
however, justities many assertions
and stamps as valid many enter
prises, which heretofore might
have invited only criticism and
condemnation. The w. G. 7. u.
has come up through varied expe-
~riences, as any other educative and
reformative medium; it has kept
abreast of the timesin its methods.
AS an organization of women it
proclaimed its mission and launch
ed its tiny bark upon a choppy sea
amidst sneers and unjust denunci-
ations. 1t has withstood many
discouragements until now it is
recognized as a world wide factor
in promulgating temperance re-
form. It's educative features are
appreciated and its inspiration and
untold stimulation to woman's
awakening is evident. The per-
manency of these accomplish
ments have been made possible by
the fact that the organization is
founded upon the Bible and Chris
tian principles.
Otherwise it's existence would,
most certainly, have been brief,
and its effect upon the race lost.
The letter &C." as emblazoned
upon its banners, is the Unions
strength, and by this sign it will
continue to conquer. Hence the
military command, "On to Wash
ington" is legitimate in that ours is
a fight between the powers OF light
and darkness. And if not to Wash
ington, the heart of our nation
from whence her life blood surges,
then where? The temperance
spirit has passed the swaddling
clothes limit, and the twentieth
century is witnessing marvellous
growth and expansion of her ener-
gy. Her past efforts have been
stepping stones to greater achieve
ments. Towns, counties, states,
have yielded to her dictation and
national prohibition is the coveted
goal towards which coming events
are casting their shadows. Such a
dream was not, a few years since,
even among the possibilities. But
to-day it enters the horoscope OF
probabilities. Yet in our conflicts
let us not forget to go back to the
Bible for discipline. The Gener-
ais, especially, should keep in
touch with the Divine-should be
electrified with this magnet of pow
er. They are marshaling for the
march of aggression; they are
planning the campaigns; they are
outstanding their ammunition
they are making ready for action,
and the still, small voice whispers
'that the race is not to the swift,
nor the battle to the strong" and
"not by might nor power, but by
my spirit" saith the Lord. We
must not be Incorporate in our
speech for temperance, and as Ho-
ly Writ DEGREES temperance in al
things, we, as subjects of this COM
mand, must submit our Rulership
to Omnipotence.
