were not it's only votaries. 1t fired n
ambition of Henry Of Navarro. and
for a moment amused Louis Napo-
leon: in his work at The Hague the
Gar Nicholas was but reviving IN q
timid form the much holder 1nspira-
ton of his ancestor, Alexander l.. The
most elaborate draft Of this scheme
has lain for two centuries on the np-
rary shelves. and Europe with a pune
tual cynicism has twice celebrated by
a universal war the centenary OF
Saint Pierre's Perpetual Peace"
This ideal has had too long a history.
1t must be some new fact, some fresh
departure, some shattering of tradi-
lions, which will give 1t life again.
The new TACT Is before US. It comes
from the New World. and 1t implies
the breaking of the most obstinate
tradition in politics. If President
Wilson,, when he addressed the
League to Enforce Peace, at Wash
ington MAY 81. 1870, had been con-
ten to make an academic speech in
favor Of the processes Of arbitration
and mediation. we should have lis
tened with a fatigued and languid at
tention. Persuasive and cultured ora
tors have exhausted that theme in all
the languages of civilization. Rous.
seau was more eloquent and Kant
more acute. On the merits Of h
question Mr.. Wilson said nothing
new; there is nothing new to say. He
made a now fact by shattering once
and for all the tradition of American
isolation.
