as we say, are therefore free to all.
On that actual juridicial basis it seems
to me possible, and indeed probable
that an international structure might
be reared for bringing together the
nations of the world and commission
ing those with navies jointly to MAIN
tain the freedom of the seas and to
restrain and punish any belGgerent
who infringed on the rights of neu-
trails or violated the established prin-
ciples of maritime international law.
In other words, if you want to pre-
vent wars, naval internationalism is
the most hopeful form of attacking
the problem-and that for the reason
that every nation shares with all 9th
ers joint and equal sovereignty over
the high seas"
"But this suggestion of international
naval cooperation for the maintenance
of the freedom of the seas and the in
tegrity of the maritime law Of nations,
so far from disposing me to criticise
Washington's policy of abstention
from participation in Europen politics,
only strengthens and confirms my ap-
proval and admiration of it. 1t is still
true that America has no interest in
the European balance Of power or no
concern with the dynastic, racial and
religious struggles or with the terri
torial ambitions and other rivalaries
which lead foreign countries to attack
one another. Europe has a complex
of political interest which have only a
remote relation to America. And it
would certainly be most unwise for US
gratuitously to impicate ourselves in
the ordinary combinations and coils
ions of her friendships, or enmities.'
Our geographical location, our ma
tional interests, and our history and
traditions still admonish US to follow
the advice of Washington. Why, in
deed, should we today any more than
in Washington's time 'entangle our
peace and prosperity in the tolls of
European ambition, rivalship, interest,
humor, or caprice"

PAINTING PICTURE OF
KING FROM WAX FIGURE

MADRID, Feb. 8. - King Alfonso,
absorbed by his occupations, has been
unable to give the necessary number
of sittings to Carlo Vasquez, who is
engaged in painting his majesty's por-
trait. Senior Vasquez, however, has
solved the difficulty. No matter at
what time one visits his studio, the
king can be seen there sitting in a
familiar pose, in the uniform Of a col
onel Of infantry. If one examines the
sovereign attentively, it can be seen
that he retains his immovability-it is
a wax figure which represents him.
The figure and attitude of Alfonso
have been exactly copied and he will
have to pose only for the face and
hands.

supply the wants and be carried for
them all; being thoroughly convinced
that it is our policy and interest to do
So The same rule of conduct in re-
gard to foreign nations he commends
as a permanent policy in the Farewell
Address, Let US extend our CONNER
cial relations with them, but have as
little political connection as possible.
Here is the classic passage:
"Europe has a set of primary in
terests, which to US have none, or a
very remote relation. Hence, she must
be engaged in frequent controversies,
the causes of which are essentially
foreign to our concerns. Hence, there
fore it must be unwise in US to i'm
plicate ourselves, by artificial ties in
the ordinary vicissitudes of her politi-
tics, or the ordinary combinations and
collisions of her friendships, or en-
mites.
"'Our detached and distant situa-
ton invites and enables US to pursue
a different course.
"'Why forego the advantages of so
peculiar a situation? Why quit our
own to stand upon foreign ground?
Why, by Intervening our destiny
with that of any part of Europe, en-
tangle our peace and prosperity in the
tolls of European ambition, rivalship,
interest, humor, or caprice?
"'Tis our true policy to steer clear
of permanent alliances with any por-
ton of the foreign world
"This passage is not encouraging
to the advocates of international or
CARNATIONS to compel peace among the
nations. And if not by physical COM
pulsion, at any rate by the pressure of
public opinion we Americans should,
and 1 think do, all devoutly desire to
see peace permanently established in
the world. 1t must be recognized that
in the last half century the nations of
the earth have come into closer rela-
tons with one another than ever be-
fore, that the welfare of each is much
more intimately bound up with the
welfare of all than in any preceding
period in the history of the world, and
that the preservation of universal
peace is a matter of individual concern
to each member of the family of ma
tons, America, for instance, being
profoundly affected and it may well
be endangered by wars in Europe,
Asia or Africa.
'This is a change brought about by
evolution which, of course,
could not have been forseen. The ire
mendous problem created by it has not
yet been solved. And though 1 pro-
foundry sympathize with the object of
the proposed leagues and concerts to
enforce or establish universal peace II
am unable to convince myself that any
method hitherto proposed of accomp-
fishing that result will be found either
feasible in itself or desirable for adop.
ton by the United States.
Perhaps some progress might be
made if we focused attention on the
fact that every nation besides being
exclusive sovereign over its own terri
tory and territorial waters has also
joint and equal authority with every
other nation on the high seas, which,
Mohave County miner. [volume] (Mineral Park, A.T. [Ariz.]) 1882-1918, 1917-02-24

weakness. If we desire to avoid in
suit, we must be able to repel it; if we
desire to secure peace, one of the most
powerful instruments of our rising
prosperity, it must be known that we
are at all times ready for war
"Tn this passage you have Wash
ington's whole philosophy of peace,
war, and preparedness. Nothing
truer or wiser has ever been written,
and Washington's words are as true
and wise and applicable today as they
were when he uttered them in 1898.
Undoubtedly there has been many
changes in the century and a quarter
that has since elapsed. Communica-
tons by sea and land have greatly
improved, intercourse with froeign
countries has increased, international
relations have been multiplied. But
human nature is substantially IN
changed, and national ambitions and
rivalries, stimulated by greater prizes,
are more intense and perhaps more ex-
plosive than ever before. Whatever
be the future prospects of the human
race, we have not yet reached that
stage of rational and moral develop
ment in which justice, righteousness,
and public law can dispense with the
sanctions of physical force.
at is a painful situation for
America, dedicated as she is to peace
full industry, democratic government,
and the promotion of the general well
fare. War is a contradiction of these
high aims. Yet there is no gainsay-
ing the truth Of Washington's words:
If we want to secure peace we must
be at all times ready for war In
deed, the saying is truer now than ever
before. For war today is conducted
on such a colossal scale, and makes
use of such a vast and multiform or
ganization of economic and industrial
as we'll as military instrumentalities,
that nation unprepared to defend
itself might easily be subjugated be-
fore it had time to organize its re-
sources and bring its armies into ac-
ton. Could Washington, therefore,
speak to US today he would more fer
vently than ever implore his country
men to provide an adequate national
army to prescribe universal military
training for our young men, and to
organize thoroughly in time of peace
all the economic, industrial, and mill
tary forces which in time of war would
be necessary for the defence of the
nation.
81 want to consider, in the last place,
Washington's conception of the rela-
ton of the United States to other ma
tons in any form of league or alli-
ance or concert, or (if you prefer the
more modern language) in any kind
Of international organization.
Washington described the policy of
his administration in letter which he
wrote to Gouveneur Morris in De-
cember, 1895. My policy he says,
has been, and will continue to be,
while have the honor to remain in the
administration of the government, to
be upon friendly terms with, but in
dependent of, all the nations of the
earth; to share in the broils of none;
to fulfill our own engagements; to

In an inter- view with the Prospector they stated that conditions at the mine were un- changed; that the men had volun- teered to return to work upon receipt of a request from Secretary Wilson. pending the decision of the board of conciliation; that the manager of the mine hs i'd refused to allow certain leaders of the strike to resume work and that the men had thereubon re- fused to consider the proposition from any other angle. They stated that the men were in permanent camp at the old roadhouse, and had good cooks and plenty of money to keep them provided with food for several months to come ard that there was no agitation nor disorder of any kind. The men are playing a waiting game, realizing that the strikebreakers imported from An chorage and other points would not give the company either the output nor the efficiency the old workmen had done, and that it would be policy on the company's part to meet the men in a fair settlement.
 Messrs. Clabach and Rutter state that the mine is not producing it's regular output by half. and that it is costing the company considerable more Der ton to mine the copper un- der present conditions than with the regular crews.
