SAN BERNARDINO, Feb. 22 —Miss Tillie Wolff, president of the local Native Daughters, had an encounter with George specialties by violin solo, result of which has been the arrest of Gibson on the charge of assault and bat- tery preferred by Louls Wolff, brother of the young lady. Miss Wolff's dog wandered out in the street this morning. It wore no tag and the dog catcher swooped down upon it with his large hoop and net. The dog was soon caught in the meshes and set up a fearful yelping. Miss Wolff ran down the street and grab- bed her dog affectionately, but the dog catcher, not to be cheated, grabbed Miss Wolff by the arm and pinched and wrenched jt. Miss Wolff screamed and tore herself loose. Mrs. Wolff witnessed the encounter and telephoned her son, | Largest Floral Parade in History of Islands Marks the Day.

BERKELEY, Feb. 22.—Joining with uni- versities and colleges the country over, the University of California this after- noon celebrated the anniversary of George | Washington's birthday with a great meet- {dng in the Greek Theater, at which the subject of international arbitration was discussed by distinguished speakers. The conference which dealt at Lake i Mohonk last vear with the same subject asked the university authoritles through- out the land to unite in an attempt to ex- cite intcrest in the arbitration principle, setting this day as the time when appro- priate exercises might be employed to awaken interest in the idea. President Wheeler, as the Western representative on the committee appointed to take charge of the matter, secured the co-operation of the student body of the State University, which listened today to Professor Bernard Moses, Dean Hodges of Massachusetts. and to Farnham P. Griffiths and M. E. Harrison, the last two speakers being stu- dents who repr ted the debating socie- ties of the university at the meeting. The Univer: music, and the audience joined in sing- ing apropriate patriotic selections during interva Professor Moses, an authority on inter- nationa! law and political history, deilv- ered the principal address of the after- noon. He spoke as follow In coming here to discuss arbitration, I do not understand that we come as champions. We have come to reason together concerning an in- stitution that is as old as human soclety. If Institutions or social practices have existed for centuries It s not hecause men have gath- ered themselves together to talk about them; | they have been maintained because of fitness for thelr conditions. The race has adhered ‘to them be of their use. They have often appeared marking stages in a process of social improvement. Slavery came, undoubtedly, in many cases as a betterment of an anteced- ent state, Wh the barbarian chief con- celved the idea holding his_captives as slaves, instead of killing them he began an im- | portant social orm. For ages in many lands slavery was a consplcuous factor in an improved social order. But an institution adapted .to serve a beneflcent purpose may be superseded in a later stage of soclal growth b e tions sl it regard fitted to attain such a pur- o. Thus In most of the enlightened na- very has been outgrown. The case as war {s not greatly different from that of slavery. It is difficult to conceive of con- ditions more miserable than those of a peo- ple, broken up into petty principalities, ruled by jealous ch who flourish by oppression and plunder. Under such circumstances the rise of a wise leader who gathers an army and makes real war brings a blessing to the peo- ple. He creates a natlon out of the hostile possessions of robber-barons. He makes safe the routes of trade; he enforces internal) or- der, and he prepares the way for a dignified national existence and the development of a broader culture. War has lasted through all the ages, not because men have been ignorant of its cruelties and-its costs. Generfition after generation has appreciated its terrible fea- tures, but ut times even the wisest have been unable to see any way forward excapt along its bloody trail Sometimes a nation appears in war .as shaking itself free from entangle- ments and compromising positions into which it has been led by politicians, or diplomatists, or the zealous Instigators of religlous antipa- thies. ‘Sometimes every other possible course would involve a loss of national honor, more preclous than human life or the material ex- penditures of a thousand wars WAR NOT THING OF PAST. There is nothing in our knowledge of the past or in uny reasonable anticipations of the future to Indicate that war is an antiquated practice. We are not Rere, therefore, to urge upon this and other nations a pledge of imme- diate total abstinence, but, on the contrary, to consider how the Instrumentalities of peace and reason may be used to remove the minor causes of international friction and settie in- ternational differences that ought not to arouse the nations to hostility. This is the statement of a programme and not of an ideal. It is possible that the world mey at last rise to the helght of Isaiah’'s ideal and the time come when ‘“‘nation shall not lift up sword against natlon’; yet the realization of this ideal does lie ‘within the range of our vision. We hion our plan, therefore, with reference to what may be attained in the present. At the same time It is clearly seen that, with every point gained in favor of a friendly settlement of disputes between nations, the field of pos- sible international arbitration is extended. But the movement for extending this fleld depends on the development of an international public opinion and international sympathy. Evidence that zuch an opinion has come into existence appeared at the close of the war between Japan and Russia. Never before had others bett 8o many men of so many nations stood to- gether on a question of international im- portance. There were no conflicting interests. The demand for justice and peace was not obscured Dby prospects of loss or advantage. The volce of the Western peoples was as the voice of a single nation; and because America was free from forelgn entanglements, the head of the state was eble to speak for all the nations of the West. Here was a manifesta- tion of an international centiment a public opinion that reached round the world. In the development of International sympathy is moreover born the desire to settle Interna- tional disputes without allowing differences to- ripen into hostility. The co-operation of western naticns in adjusting their relations with the Orlent is apparently destined to draw them into closer sympathy, and make more evidint to them that they are of ons blood, and have in general common interests that demand the maintenance of pemce. For the development of that International sympathy on which we found our hopes for the future we neod a more complete under- standing of the points of view and funda- mental ideas of other nations. We of the modern time are not greatly unlike the Groeks in regarding foreigners as barbarians. From the forelgner's point of view we are barbarians. 1 have seen men stoned in my country simply because they were foreigners: and T bhave been stoned in other countrles simply because I was a forelgner. As long as this wall of separation lasts, there will be difficultien in creatinz a strong desire for a friendly settlement of international disputes. In spite of the enlarged facllities for commu- nication the great bulk of the inhabitants of every country know only their own type, and point of view. ~As the population of this country grows from elghty millions to several hundred millions our own characteristics will naturally become more and more definitely fixed, d will be imvressed more and more rigidly upon us. In this frame of mind the forelgner will appear more definitelv a bar- barian; and unless powerfully counteracting forces ~ are brought into operation we shall develop a native type as distinctly American | as the Chinese type is distinctly Chinese; and fhus between va ard othei nations crmoathy Wil not ebound. Here is our most difficult, but, cultivated, most fruitful, fleld of gnissionary work. for with the loss of apprecifion of our nelghbor's qualities and jaeale wjil /disappear most of our {nterest in friendly, promises and the peaceful settle- e R ernational questions In which he is involved. It only needs a little irritation to Kkeen alert in us the reckless spirit of the enuine barbarian Who counts no costs when is warlike vassion 18 aroused NATIONS SETTLE QUESTIONS. There is some reason to expect reforms of a political character to proceed from frontler ratijons and to expect that new institutions will be cspecially acceptable to nations In llem Is Aot overpowerdd by con- ative n_connection with this W ]t s significant that the United States and Great PBritain have rettled the San Juan Poundary question, the Alabama question and the Bering Sea sealing controv by arbitra- tion, It i also significant that Ttaly and Ar- gentina and Argentina and Uruguay bave framad and ratifled treaties of arbitration; and that the first nations to make use of the in- ternational tribunal at The Hague were Amer- jean mations. 1In all of these transactions at Jenst one of the parties belongs to this con- tinent.

But the youngsters who had planned the parade were not to be deterred by such | marched | disappointments, and they proudly alone, not one of them of age, but each filled with patriotism and full of fighting spirit. A fair crowd of citizeng gathered along the line of march and cheered feebly at times. The First Corps Cadets, beardless, but with guns and swords, led the van. They were very imposing in their white duck trousers and blue coats. They were out in forcs, having a full-sized band, com- ranies A and B of San Francisco, C of Alameda, D' of Berkeley and the Hospl- tal Corps from Mill Valley. They formed at Grant avenue and Bush street, marched Band provided excellent ! to Market, out Market to Golden Gate, and out Golden Gate to Jefferson square, where they disbanded. But the bravest bana of all was the column from the Boys' and Girls' Aid So- ciety. This procession of warrlors was led by General A. L. Pierce, age six. was possesced of martial spirit sufficient to please tde most rigid regular. He was the leader of a troop of 150 men and women, not one of them over 10 years old. They marched several miles during the morning and not once did they flag by the way. The boys of the First Corps Cadets are not discouraged by the smallness of their parade vesterday. They declare that they will go to work the first of January next yvear and show San Francisco that they can get up a parade of real magnificence. ——e———————— Colonist Rates to Californin, Daily to April Tth. $30 from New York; $33 from Chicago.

Market street. Telephone South s i from the contemporary drift in world politics toward making a few nations especially power. ful and relegating all other to pdsitions of i ternational insignificance. No political mo ment of the present Is more suggestive than this of Important results for the immediate future. It eeparates the nations clearly marked classes. On the one hand are those nations that stand by their Individual power; on the other, those Whose existence Is guaranteed by forelgn agreement, or by informal acquiescence of the great nations. 1 Switzerland or Belgium Is aggrieved by any one of the leading powers of Europe war in pursuit of satisfaction is out of the question. But still the small nation of Europe has rot an undesirable position. When the great powers guarantee its permanent neutrality, and provision ls made for the settlement of its international disputes by arbitration, it enjoys security and Is oppressed by no heavy burden of military expenses. The advantages of this position to such states as have laid aside their £mbition to have a leading part in the play of world politics are apparently sufficlent to cause 1004 . . the list to be increased; and by thus increasing | the list of permanently neutral states the fleld of probable war is diminished: it Is limited, in fact, to the few great nations that are able | and willing to bear the extraordinary burdens | of eftective military and naval equipment and | maintenance. WAR EQUIPMENT COST. In the case of the great nations every decads is adding to the costliness of thelr war equip- ment. They are able to see that it is ex- travagant folly for them to engage in war with one another except where a very great stake 1s involved and that war among them couid rarely be fought to a finish. They may. see, moreover, that the plan of a balance of power, | once used to preserve the peace of Europe, | may be employed to preserve the peace of the worid; that every consideration urges them to compromise their differences or submit them to en international tribunal. Even as an ad- vocate of peace one might reasonably urge larger expenditures by the great powers on their armles and navies in order that their | § military equipment and organization may be- come so complicated and expensive in use that they will hesitate to put this arm of their power into oneration. The fleld of military conflict is diminished In certain Instances without technically in- creasing the area of arbitration. This is done in the first place, ms aiready indicated, by placing certain small states in a position of permanent neutrality. It {s done In the sec- ond place by causing them to be absorbed into states of imperial dominion. The German states kept Central Europe in commotion be- fore Prussia gathered them together and ralsed over them the flag of the empire. Internal war was India’s normal condition until Eng- land extended her authority over the .country | and made it clear to the world that the main- | tenance of the empire of Indla meant the preservation of Internal peace. The same re- crs have come to dominate the less developed peoples of other races Tribal wars have ceased and the limits of the fleld of military econfiict have been pushed farther back. The French in Indo-China, the Dutch in Jav: the Americans in the Philippines and the Eng- lish elsewhere have brought peace:and order out of war and sgclal chaos. Occaslons will yet come when natlons will listen to the call to arms. The war songs be heard again and ihe savage in us, temporarily subdued, Wil be aroused by the nolse of conflict. But we have outgrown the brutal duels of our ancestors, and through ths cultivation of international sympathy and the spirit of fairdealing we may hope to outgrow most of the incentives to war. Our remedy is not in law, but in sentiment; in preciation of our nelghbor's point of vi a_sympathy that transcends the narrow limits of cur provinclalism and comprehends the race. i —————————— Golden State Limited—The Train of Superlor Service to Chlcago.
