With the presentation of the in- structions of the various countries at the Hague, it begins to be seen that
 the principal work of the present ses-
 sion of the conference is likely to be arbitration, says a Washington writer. The proposals of the American dele gates have not yet been all submit ted, but it is known that they left the state department with this policy strongly impressed upon them. This government knew as wei as the others that there was not anything practical to be accomplished this year in the reduction of armaments. and it de- cided that next to reducing armaments the best thing was to get the nations to agree to refrain from using them So far as possible. Thus arbitration Is likely to assume the chief place in the deliberations oS the conference with this country taking the lead. It is thought that something more prac- ical than the old arbitration treaty can be framed and if it is there is little doubt that the countries rep resented will all sign it. This is cer- tainly a step in the right direction. A man may insist on his liberty to carry a gun, but if be can be train- cd not to pull it. the public peace is just as well conserved. And eventually, he may get in the habit of leaving his gun at home.

A SOUND PLAN.

The Hon. Arthur E. Stillwell, presi-
to bankers of the United States a plan
for the prevention of financial panics
caused by the inelasticity of our cir,
culating medium. The people of this
section OF the west feel as If they were
a little closer to Mr.. Stillwell than the
people at large, for the reason that he
has as his railroad manager Mr.. Ed
ward Dickinson, so long a resident ot
Wyoming and one of the best railroad
men on earth.
In his foreword Mr.. Stillwell says
that his plan was formulated several
years ago and was presented to Presi-
dent Mckinley. who gave it his approx,
al. 1t was also looked upon with favor
by many members of congress, but it
was deemed inadvisable by the ad-
ministration and congress to introduce
a radical change in the financial sys-
tenn when everything was running
along smoothly and there was no az
parent need for it. They did not take
into consideration the fact that the
time to prepare for financial panics is
when there is no reed for action. That
is the rule Of life. But now there Is
need for action and Mr.. Stillwell is
urging a study Of his plan. 1t coa-
templates a great central bank Of IL
sue with a capital stock of three hun
dred millions, to be owned by all the
national banks of the United States.
It would perform many Of the functions
now left entirely to the treasury depart
ment and would be controlled by the
government to the extent OF large rep
resentation on the board Of directors.
Instead of new banks being required
to buy government bonds to secure cir
culation, they would purchase stock
in this central bank. 1t is part of the
plan that this bank should guarantee
the deposits Of al national banks. It

tors has time and again been urged
upon congress. but 1t has always meJ
with a cold shoulder. The comptrol,
Ter OF the currency and also the secre,
tary of the treasury have called the
attention of congress to the feasibility
of guaranteeing all depositors against
loss, n have shown by actual expert
ence that the government would be at
no loss, but it has always been turned
down. The comptroller has shown
that the present tax on the circulation
of the national banks, with the small
tax that was at one time on deposits.
has created such a fund IN the treas
ury over and above the cost to the gov.
eminent during the last forty years,
that 1t would not only reimburse ths
government for all outlay in the mat.
ter, but would also pay every loss that
has been sustained by anyone through
the failure Of national banks during
that time. Forty years Is q pretty
safe trial ant IL the tax mentioned
would do that the past forty years.
1t is pretty safe to conclude that such
come. And this tax was not anything
that the banks complained of.

whole nation. l am of the opinion
that the government should guarantee
every depositor in any national bank

the loss. In doing this, the government
would run no risk and the result would
be that panics would a altogether,
