The Monroe Doctrine.

In stirring times, when patriotic senti-
ments are revived, patriotic hopes re-
kindled, and patriotic impulses predomi-
nant, it is well to recall the sage and
prophetic words of those early American
statesmen whose counsels have been fol-
lowed with honor, credit, and advantage
to the republic.
President Monroe was elected in 1916,
and in 1920 he was reelected. Chill de-
clared its independence OF Spain in 1910,
Paraguay in 1911, Columbia, then in
Guiding Venezuela, in 1919, Mexico in
1921, Peru in the same year, and Brazil
revolted from Portuguese domination in
1922. The other States OF South and
Central America, notably, Argentina,
United States by freeing themselves from
European control, and the covert propo-
sition to re-establish it evoked from the
President these never-to-be-forgotten
words, part of his annual message to the
Eighteenth Congress on Dec. 2, 1929
ave owe it to candor and to the ami
cable relations existing, between the
United States and the allied powers to
declare that we should consider any at
tempt on their part to extend their sys-
TEN to any portion OF this hemisphere as
dangerous to our peace and safety. With
the existing colonies or dependencies of
any European power we have not inter-
fered, and shall not interfere but with
the Governments which have declared
their independence and maintained it,
and whose independence we have, on
great consideration and just principles,
acknowledged, we could not niew an in
terposition for expressing them, or con-
trolling in any other manner their des-
tiny by any European power, in any
other light than as a manifestation of an
uniriendly disposition toward the United
States"
That is the Monroe Doctrine. Such
was the position not only OF the Presi-
dent, but also Of the people of the Unit
ed States then. Such is the position,
positive and irrevocable, of the people OF
the United States now. The liberty OF
sovereign people, wrested from the ty-
ranny Of an alien Government or local
despotism and duly recognized by the
United States, cannot be interfered with
afterward withoutinjury to this republic.

mended az a convenient means OF making
a forced loan fom the people, but q
Government should indeed be in des-
perate position which ventures thus Ia
break all social contracts and relations
which ii was created to preserve"
A forced loan is one that compels the
people TO give something Of value for
something Of no value or little value,
yet J II A thinks they are all against
me. DIR. Wayland says, in his Polit.
Econ, page 300, "The precious metals as
instruments Of exchange would have
been introduced and employed as money
as they were in the time OF Abraham,
had governments no agency at all in the
matter. We see then that the metals
derive their use as money from their
inherent fitness and not from the agency
OF government"
Economists are against me.
j. II. Walker, in his "Money Trade
and Banking" page SO, says, awe must
assume that the precious metals have in
themselves intrinsic value, that they
are the most concentrated form Of wealth
and measure the value Of all other
commodities by their own intrinsic
value" Superstition
Jevon says, Even the best informed
government departments cannot be
trusted to judge wisely and impartially
when more money is needed" ] II A
says any fool could tell that.
Ricard says, "The whole charge for
paper money may be considered as
seigniorage. A bank-note may be con-
sidered as piece Of money on which
the seigniorage amounts to all its value.
The limits beyond which seigniorage
cannot be advantageously extended are
the actual expense incurred in manu-
featuring the coin."
Ricard certainly teaches that it is not
advantageous to issue paper money. l
could quote authors to the same effect
for any length of time, in fact no politi-
cal economist who has written on
economy teaches anything else than
money must have an inherent value.
First.-Could this government do all
its business on the Populist's paper
money alone?
Second.-Was there ever any money
which ws5 not created by the govern
ment?
Third Would the people be obliged
to do without money il all laws respect
ing money were repealedP
Fourth.-Is all our money legal tender2
Fifth.-Will anything circulate as
money which is not legal tender?
Let J II A answer these questions. l
have two more articles l would be glad
to write on this part Of the subject, one
on how money is regulated as to quantity
and quality, the other on the history OF
paper money, and then will close I'M

Rheumatism is caused by Tactic acid in
the blood attacking the fibrous tissues Of
the joints. Keep your blood pure and
healthy and you will not have rheuma-
tism. Hoods Sarsaparilla gives the
blood vitality and richness and tones the
whole body, neutralizes the acidity of
the blood and thus cures rheumatism.
