effect that the statement in the pre-
face credited to the report OF the

the end OF the fifteenth century 1t
had shrunk to 800, 900, 900. Pop
ulation dwindled, and commerce,
arts. wealth, and freedom all disap-
peared. The people were reduced
| by poverty and misery to the most
degraded conditions Of serfdon and
slavery. The disintegration OF So
ciety was almost complete. His
tory records no such disastrous
Transition as that from the Roman
empire to the dark ages. The dis
covery of the New World by Column
bus restored the volume Of precious
metals, brought with it rising prices,
enabled society to reunite its shat

OF feudalism, and to relight and up
lift the almost extinguished torch OF
civilization"

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9-Congressman
Blue says concerning the presidents mes
sage:
"Ihe message in the main is patriotic
aud American. 1t is subject, however, to
the criticism that it does not fully ex-
press the Monroe doctrine, with develop
ments. The intimatiou in the message
that if the boundary in dispute were set
tied to the satisfaction of the government
| of Venezuela. the government Of the
United States has nothing further to say,
is unfortunate. We should with unflinch-
ing fidelity maintain the doctrine that no
nation of the old world will be permitted
to acquire further territory in the west
ern hemisphere, either fOrcibly or other
wise. Congress should enact law be-
fore tomorrow night creating a commits
sion to investigate and report upon the
disputed territory and make the neces-
sary appropriation for the carrying out of
the provisions of the law"
Representative Curtis-'I am glad
that Olney succeeded in getting the pres
ident TO add his name to the message. 1t
is good piece of work, and all correc-
ti0ns needed are merely additions. Con-
gress can aid the president in the matter,

TO MAKE A NAVY.


SAN Francisco, Dec. 18.-Irving N.
Scott. vice president and general mana
ger of the Union Iron works. who has
built some of the best war ships in the
navy, expresses the belief that although
the present strength of the navy is not
great, there could be extemporized a suf-
ticient fleet to enable the United States
to maintain the prestige of the flag. He
said:
"We can count thirty-four now ready,
besides six turreted monitors, six
gunboats and two battleships now
being built, making a total OF As Then
there are thirteen of the old Ericsson
monitors that could be put in condition
and five of those turreted vessels being
completed just at the end OF the civil
war were never finished and are very
powerful vessels. There could also be
extemporizsd for cruisers and commerce
destroyers the New York. City of Paris,
ST. Louis and ST. Paul. l should think
that within 30 days they could be put
into shape"
