Jubilee World Wide.
A worldwide peace Jubilation is pro-
posed by the delegates representing the
English-speaking nations.
After referring to the fact that the
approaching centennial of the signing OF
the Treaty of Client had brought together
these representatives of Great Britain,
New Foundland, Canada, Australia, and
the United States, the manifesto con-
tinues:
We invite such cooperation to the
end that it may be made clear and I'M
mistakable to public opinion everywhere
that the time has come when interna-
tional rivalries and differences though
numerous and severe, may be settled
without the carnage and horrors of war.
Although il be unreasonable to disre-
gard the possibility of conflict arising
in the future, out of mutual or partial
misunderstanding, yet We gratefully rec
ognize that the chances of misunder-
standing have been largely eliminated
by the degree in which modern science
has facilitated intercourse and acceler-
ated communication. We are, therefore,
encouraged to hope that the develop
ment of letters, science and the arts Of
commerce, industry and finance, of mu-
tual knowledge, trust and good feeling
on the part OF those who owe different
allegiances and who speak different
tongues, may profitably absorb the energy
of mankind, as well as offer opportu-
nifty for the display of the noble and
finest traits of mind and character.
Touches Great Interests.
Great Britain has been colonizinR
nation, and the United States has drawn
to its population various and powerful
elements from different countries and
from different flags. Therefore. a CEN
fury of peace between Great Britain and
her dominions beyond the seas on the
one hand. and the United States on the
other hand, touches directly the inter-
ests and the imagination of every land
to which Great Britains sons have gone,
as well as those of every nation from
which the present-day population of the
United States has been drawn. Such a
celebration will not only mark the close
of a century of exceptional significance
and importance, but it will call attention
to an example and an ideal that we
earnestly hope may be pursued in the
years to come
The governments of Great Britain and
the United States are required to trans
NIT the invitations to the governments
of the world in order that the celebra-
ion will mark, mot only the close of
100 years of peace between English
speaking people. but the opening of what
we sincerely trust will be fresh era of
peace and good will between all nations
of the world"
