Protection Not for Wrongdoers,
From Harper's Weekly.

To secure at least fair treatment for
Americans anywhere abroad-that is
one privilege of a great power which
we ought to exercise. Lord Palmer
ston's famous civis Romanus speech OF
1850 has never been effectively an
swered. Nobody has ever given q good
reason why an Englishman should not
be permitted to feel. wherever he may
be. that the watchful eye and the
strong arm Of England will protect him
against injustice and wrong Neither
is there any reason why an American
should not have the same feeling-pro-
vided always. Of course. that he doesn't
get the notion he is going to be pro-
tected In doing wrong or Injustice to
people Of other countries.

Ing fire. a joint commission met in
Washington in 1887 and concluded q con-
ventton known as the Bayard-Chamber-
lain treaty. having for its stated purpose
the removal Of divergences which had
arisen concerning the Interpretation Of
article 1 Of the convention OF October
1878. This treaty. however, was rejected
by the Senate on the ground that 1t sur.
rendered many American rights and &C.
cepted them as new privileges from Great
Britain. An attempt was made by Sec
rotary Of State Blaine and Sir Robert
Bond to negotiate a treaty as to New
foundland alone in 1890 and 1891, and in
1898 a joint high commission was con-
stituted to consider Canadian questions,
but failed to reach any agreement.
With these two exceptions there was
no effort to negotiate q treaty between
the United States and Great Britain in
regard to North Atlantic fisheries until
ambassador the questions arising upon
the refusal to American fishing vessels in
Canadian and Newfoundland ports COM
mercial privileges reciprocal to the rights
accorded to Canadian and Newfoundland
vessels IN American ports and tho numer-
GUS enaetments OF local legislation which
the United States has regarded as un-
1ustihable attempts to hinder and en-
barrass American fishermen In the exer-
else Of their international and treaty
rights.
These negotiations resulted in the sig
nature of special agreement, under
which the difficulties which have arisen
between the two governments Is to the
scope and meaning Of article 1 of the
treaty Of 1918 and OF the liberties therein
referred to are submitted to the tribunal
OF arbitration at The Hague.
The Hague tribunal will, therefore, de-
eide the scope and meaning Of . provision
OF treaty signed nearly one hundred
years ago. and which has never been
clearly Understood. In addition. the tri-

Arbitration to Settle Old
Dispute With Great Britain

~ HE controversy concerning north
Atlantic coast fisheries, which has
= been the cause OF more unpleas-
antness than any other subject, perhaps.
between the United States and Great
Britain since the war of 1912. Is about
to be settled once and for all by arbi-
tration. Delegates to q big peace con-
ciave, which Is to be held shortly. have
already established headquarters at The
Hague.
The basis Of arbitration which Is to
settle the question is a special agree
ment between the United States and
Great Britain. signed in Washington by
Mr.. Root. then Secretary of State, and
James Bryce. British ambassador, jan
uary q, 1909. Ratification was advised
by the Senate February IS ana con-
frmed by exchange Of notes March 4,
1909.
The first real trouble concerning the
rights Of American fishermen in British
waters came shortly after the war Of
1912.

The sentiment Of the United States
grew very bitter against a treaty which
made this award possible, and the fishery
articles OF the treaty were smashed by
proclamation Of the President July /,
1885. just as soon as 1t was possible to
do so under the announcement provision
Of the treaty. 1t should be remembered,
though, thst both the treaty Of 1854 and
the fishery article Of 1871 were additional
to and not In substitution Of the treaty
of 1918. Their termination left article
l OF the treaty of 1918 as the only treaty
provision governing the fishery rights Of
Americans in the North Atlantic.
No sooner did 1t become known that
the treaty Of 1871 had been denounced
and terminated by the United States than
the American fishermen began to feel the
effects OF the harsh treatment. Several
laws were enacted by Canada and the
provinces affecting American fishery in
terests. all regulations seemed to increase
the hardships and limit the rights Of
the American fishermen, and for a time
there was much disturbance. Arrests
were made. quarrels were frequent. and
the respective governments again saw
the necessity Of giving the matter diplo-
matte consideration.
Accordingly December 8, 1885. Presi-
dent Cleveland transmitted the CORE
spondence relating thereto to Congress
and suggested that "a commission be
proofs OF the losses sustained during the
last year by American fishermen owing
to their unfrtendly and unwaranted treat

American fishing rights. The United
States naturally objected. and these objec-
tons led to another treaty in 1854 by
which greater privileges were accorded
to American fishermen in exchange for
tariff privileges accorded to tho British
colonies in North America and for Ger
tain fishing rights In United States waters
granted to British subjects.
> This treaty was denounced by the
United States in 1865 and terminated in
1855. In 1871 was signed the treaty Of
Washington. The fisheries question. still
disturbing factor. came up in this
treaty. and the provisions contained In
the treaty of 1851 were practically re-
enacted. stating the rights Of American
fishermen In return for reciprocal priv
ileges as to the free admission OF fsh
and fish products. 1t provided for COM
pensation to be paid by the United States
in case the additional privileges granted
to be OF greater value than the privileges
granted to Canadian fishermen and for a
commission to determine this question.
1t gave to the citizens OF both countries
the right in certain circumstances and
restrictions to ship goods in bond across
the border without examination or the
payment OF duties. 1t also provided for
the Termination Of certain Of its pro-
visions by either party at any time after
on giving notice Of such intention.
Compile atoms followed almost as soon
as the treaty went into force. An in
ternational commission which met in Hal
flax In 1877 took up one dispute and
awarded In favor of Great Britain the
sum of $500, eco. which was paid by the
United States after much protest.
