the leading nations is rapidly bringing
thoughtful men of all parties 10 the con-
cIusion that something must be done, and
that something invariably lies in the di-
rection Of peaceful arbirament of inter-
national disputes. No other remedy IS
ever suggested. There is none. This in
itself is a great gain. for when men see
clearly that there is only one possible
remedy its application is near. President
Taft was the first among rulers of nations
TO bridge the chasm between peace and
war, and point out the true path.
Although many arbitration treaties
have been made" Mr.. Carnegie continued,
the situation remains practically IN
changed. because the conventions with
the principal nations have lOopholes
which result in defeating their purpose.
Great Britain and the United States. he
said, agreed on a treaty in 1881, submitting
all questions TO arbitration. even those
affecting the national honor This treaty,
however. failed to obtain the ratification
OF the Senate
Not the slightest barrier exists. pro-
vided the Senate co-operates. to obtaining
such a treaty to-day, which would bind
the English-speaking race together" Mr..
Carnegie added This good beginning,
once made, other nations would soon fol-
low, and we should be nearing our goal.
Disarmament would soon follow as mat

Noble Task Ahead.

The last speaker OF the evening was
Andrew Carnegie, and as he mounted the
platform the entire audience rose 10 its
feet in a great wave OF enthusiasm.
Although Mr. Carnegie had been slightly
indisposed earlier in the evening, he car
ried his address through with the
vigor and strength which characterizes
all his public appearances. Mr.. Carnegie
said. in part:
you are Engaged in Fastening the Gre

by which time we will know the

Resolved, further. That our field
agent be instructed to notify the
agents OF this action and request them
to give all voluntary service in their
power until the time fixed, when VIC
hope to restore salaries in full

made to the Fairmont or any other
local work.
"Resolved, That the above resolu;
tions do not apply to the field agent
and manager Of the home ut Elkins,
nor to any fixed charges OF maintain

, This means q sever blow to the
local work, for while the local needs
have been met by the funds derived
from the Dixie theatre benefit through
the generosity OF its owners, yet the
State has always paid the salary oil

this position, has been most efficient
officer and to dispense with his ser
vices now would mean a great deal oi
suffering to the children and animals
of our community. The Fairmont SO
ciety, realizing this and after much de
liberation, voted to adopt the follow
ing resolutions:
Whereas, The State Humane So
ciety has dispensed with all Its agents
and has no money with which TO carry
on the work OF the society, and,
Whereas, The work of Mr.. George
Brand, the Fairmont agent, has becl
