EFFECTS OF THE MEETING.

The great industrial movement
being held in this city today
should arouse every good citizen
to the front, and with the COOP
Grafton of her people, Henderson
vile will grow as she never did
before.
The greatest factor in upbuilG-
ing a city is a we'll organized body
of business men, known in many
cities as a Board of Trade.
There are many branch organi-
cations of this board which go to
make up a live town. The mer-
chants and many other varieties
of tradesmen form their subordi-
nate branches in connection with
a Board of Trade, and it is safe to
say that from the effects of this
great Industrial meeting, Hen
Jacksonville will take on new life,
organize a new Board of Trade,
and it will be only a question of
a short while before the smoke of
factories can be seen circling the
skies over the Atlantic City of
the South"

Editor Hustler:
The suffering public as we'll as
the business people of this beau
tiful city agree that if the pre-
sent city officials find it impossi-
BILE for them to look after the
actual necessities of the town,
they would be doing us a great
favor to turn over the reins to
someone else and stand aside.
The dust on Main street is almost
unbearable, and the officials
should run the sprinkler every
day for the next three months.
1t does seem to me that it should
not be necessary to have to call
the attention of any reasonable
act of man to this matter more
than one time. / understand
that the excuse which is Civ
ing is that they only had one
team and that it had to be used
in working the other streets.
This is worse than no excuse.
Why spend money advertising to
get people to come here and then
them out of town with

in such actions?

P%ERU-BOLIVIA DISPUTE.

The attack by angry Bolivians
on the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS at La
Pas, the Bolivian capital, because
the Argentine President has
rendered an unpopular decision
n the arbitration of a boundary
dispute between Peru and Bo-
liVia is being construed by some
editors as indicating a fatal
weakness in international arbi-
tration. They argue that the
uncontrolled anger of the Bo-
iVians shows how hopeless it is
to depend on arbitration to settle
international controversies. In
our estimation that is a short
sighted view. That there is a
weakness in international arbi-
tration, as now conducted, none
of its wise friends will deny, but
that weakness is of method and
not of essence. Under the pre-
sent method of arbitration the
head of a friendly power is
usually called in to adjust the
difficulty. Such an arbitrator is
necessarily influenced to some
extent by political conditions and
100 often lacks the time to make
thorough study of the merits
of the case. Generally, he con-
cludes to settle the controversy
by splitting the differences"
as was done in the case of which
the Bolivians complain. Such
arbitration naturally arouses in
dignation on the part of those
who were confident that more
than half of the territory or in
demnity claimed belonged to
them.
The only hope of international
arbitration rests on the establish
ment of a. permanent court of
arbitration, composed of eminent
lawyers, appointed for life and
with a compensation sufficient to
remove them from all tempta-
ton of a pecuniary character,
the members of such a court
would be compelled, practically
to denationalize themselves; to
become citizens and jurists of
the world. Devoting their en-
tire time to the cases submitted
to the court they could thorough
ly master their subject and their
decisions would be based or
equity instead of being the COM
promises which result from the
present form of arbitration. The
decisions of such a court would
command respect and after a
little time would be received
with a confidence which can
never be commanded by quasi
political arbitrators.
