lie life today has shown such an
erratic and inconsistent course in re-
lation to the subject of international
arbitration. His early public career
was marked by strong hostility to
arbitration in general, In a magazine
article as late as 1895 he attacked
President Harrison for submitting the
Boring sea question to arbitration.
Becomes Pacific.
"But when he assumed the respon-
slbility Of the Presidency, it was he
who sent the first case to The Hague
court of arbitration and invited the
nations in hostile array against Vene-
zuela to resort to the same court.
IN the first instance he proposed
to settle the Alaskan boundary dis
pute by sending the American army
to occupy and hold the territory by
force, but finally yielded to the pacific
advice of Secretary Hay and in 1908
submitted the question TO the London
commission.
Notwithstanding his early declara-
ton in opposition to arbitration in
general, he has done more than any
other living man to advance this
cause and has well earned the Nobel
peace prize. Judging the future by
the past, We may expect this erratic
but patriotic citizen to fall in line
with the onward march towards inter
national peace and give his support to
the great measure which most en-
mobiles the administration of his sue
cessor."

Severe criticism of Theodore Roose-
velt's recent public utterances regard
ing international arbitration marked
the speech of John w. Foster, former
Secretary of State today, before the
seventeenth annual meeting of the
Lake Mohonk conference on interna-
tional arbitration. At the same time
said Mr.. Foster, notwithstanding Mr..
Roosevelt's early declaration in OPP
position to arbitration in general, he
has done more than any other living
man to advance this cause"
The Anglo-American treaty of arbi-
tration, Mr.. Foster said, would have
no appreciable effect on the arma-
ments of the world and that at present

become a party to a like treaty.

First Six Settlers.

Aberdeen.-Thirty years ago six
men now numbered among the best
known citizens of Aberdeen drove to
the little spot on the prairie which has
since developed into the metropolis OF
the Dakotas. and, with 60 or 20 others,
made this the terminus of a long jour
ney.
Those in the party were Frank and
Henry Beard, John and David Culbert.
Murray Widdis and John Wesley Col
Inns. All of them started early in the
spring of 1881 from Bruce county, On
tario. and spent a couple Of months
in Cass county. North Dakota. Then
the first of June, that year. they form
ed a part of the long wagon train
which came south to this section, and
the six settled land in the vicinity of
Aberdeen and have been closely con-
nected with the growth of this city
ever since. 1t was a drive of 100 miles
n was covered in six days. Or ar
irving at Aberdeen, where the railroad
had not yet reached at that time, there
were but two sod shanties to be seen,
and it required wonderful imagination
to picture what the next three decades
had in store for the little settlement
on the prairies.
