At a meeting of the organization

Gil of agriculture and a number OF
breeders OF pure bred beef cattle at
Madisonvllle recently. 1t was decided
to hold sale. of purebred bulls of
the three beef breeds, Shorthorn. An.
gus and Hereford, some time this fall,
according TO agent II. X. Foster. A
committee was selected to work out
the details of this sale and to assist
the county agent in advertising, and
interesting livestock men and farmers
in making it success. In a state
ment in the local paper the above COM
mittee say that they believe that the
improvement and increase in better
live stock, together with more land In
pastures, and more hay and grain mar.
keted through live stock Is the only
way TO bring about permanent i'm
provement OF Monroe county farms.
1t Is planned later on, should this
sale be success, to hold sales of pure.
bred dairy cattle, hogs and other live
stock, and possibly to make the sales
an annual event. Agent Foster reports
that he has inquiries for 1000 head of
good feeding cattle and he has asked
his farmers to let him know what they
have for sale. Much good should re-
suit from work like this. 5'.i'' %

Is also a good deal of opposition eX-

D'Alte, head of the Portuguese delega-

sion on the four-power treaty. said:
II can add but little to alI that my
distinguished colleagues who sit
around this table have so ably said to-
day; tat may perhaps be forgiven if
endeavor to draw attention to a
notable feature of the agreement which
has been the object of our thoughts
to-day.
"Even more than the words in which
it is written, it is the spirit in which
this memorable agreement was con-
world with high hopes for the future
1t would, OF course, be easy to evade
any of the clauses OF the treaty of
which I am speaking; it would even
seem as If the men who have drafted
it have tried to signify that they did
not place their main reliance and the
achievement Of their aims in a LONG
series of carefully worded clauses.
only four powers who repose the
most implicit trust in the honor and
integrity of each other could sign a
treaty such as this. And it is this fact
that gives the agreement it's tremendous
binding power. The confidence so fully
given TO nation would dare to betray'

think 1t touches, in truth and In reality,
the interests of the whole world.
''You will all have noticed that Clause
d provides that when this treaty re-
ceives it's ratification at the hands
OF the signntory powers at that
moment the treaty between Japan and
Great Britain comes to an end. Now,
am perfectly wei! aware that the
treaty between Great Britain and
Japan has been the cause Of much
searchings of heart, of some suspicious,
Of good deal OF animadversion in
Important sections of opinion in tho
United States, and | think that from
a historical point of view that at
titude may at first cause surprise, for
certainly nothing was further from the
thoughts of the original trainers Of
the treaty between Japan and Great
Britain than that it could touch in the
remotest way, either for good or for
evil, the interests of the United States.
The United States seems as remote from
any subject touched In the signed
agreement as Chile or Peru.
Rise of Tension In Pacific
"I think that was the original view
taken in the United States by all sec-
tions of opinion. To what is it that the
change of opinion is due? think it
is due to the fact that state OF in
ternational tension did arise in the
Pacific area--and hope / may Incl
dentally say that it is now forever
set at rest-but at all events it did
arise in the area Of the Pacific Ocean,
and critics in tho United Statcs be-
gan to say to themselves, Why is there
this treaty between Japan and Great
Britain, what further interest does it
serve?
"They call to mind the fact that it
originally came into being on account
of the aggressive attitude taken in
Far Eastern affairs by Russia and by
Germany, and they asked themselves,
Is there any further danger from Rus
, sia? Is there any further peril to be
feared from Germany? And when they
they were obliged to answer it, in the
| negative, when they perceived that the
practical objects for which the Anglo
Japanese alliance was brought into be-
ing no longer existed, that history had
wiped them out, they said to them
selves, why, then, is this treaty con-
tinued? May it not, in certain con-
ceivablc eventualities, prove hamper-
ing and injurious in case strained re-
lations should become yet more
strained?'
81 understand that point Of view, but
there is another point Of view which |
want you to understand, and which
even those who disagree with it will
sympathize with. There is no audience
that would rather appeal to than an
American audience on the point l am
just going to mention. This treaty,
remember, was not a treaty that had to
be renewed 1t was treaty that ran
until it was formally denounced by one
of the two parties to it. 1t is true that
the objects for which the treaty had
been created no longer require inter
national attention.
But, after all, that treaty or its
predecessors has been in existence
within few years of twenty years. 1t
had served great purpose in two great
wars. 1t had stood the strain of COM
mon sacrifices, common anXieties, COM
mon efforts, common triumphs.

statement was perfectly accurate, but
no man or woman who has listened to
this discussion, who has heard Senator
Lodge read and comment on the treaty,
who has heard M. Viviani's eloquent
statement of the effect it has produced
on his country, nobody can consider
the substance and matter Of the treaty
not it be within the strict program Of
our conference, nothing is more ger

could possibly have done would better

of naval armament which l hope will
