MAKING TREATIES BY THE
WhO4 E0ALE.

The United States has often been
criticised for the alowness with which
1t has acted In ratifying treaties with
other nations. In some instances this
censure has perhaps been deserved
In many others It is entirely probable
that the conservative and deliberate
course Of the Senate has preserved
the country from agreements which
would have proved entanglng and un,
satisfactory. However this may be,
in the present session the work OF
approving International compacts has
gone on at q rate which has few pre-,
cedents In American history.
Not fewer than thirty-seven differ,
ent conventions are said to have been
ratified since last Dccember-a list in
which twelve treaties pertain to ar
bitration with other governments
ranging from that of the British En-,
pire to little countries like Switzer.
land and Sweden. 1t looks as II the
Senate, under the persuasion OF Sec
rotary Root, backed up by pressure
from the White House. had been vii
ling to give tho administration nearly
everything II asked for in this direc
ton.
II now remains to be ascertained
whether these bargains will produce
the results hoped for. Until several
years have passed 1t will be impos.
sible to pronounce upon this poips
with anything like certainty Yet
while the United States should not
be backward in any we'll considered
action that tends to promote the
cause of peace and civilization. 1t
ought to- he borne in mind that it,
foreign policy hitherto has been fair
ly successful without such multiple
city of treaties. Sound sense in In,
irrational relations, and the desire
to do Justice to others. while demand
ing Justice for ourselves, are apt to
he more potent in the maintenance
amity than the mere exchange of pa
per pledges.
