.GERMANY'S TURN NOW
Anxious for a Slice of Vene.
zuelan Territory.
NAVAL STATION BADLY WANTED
Another Interpretation Of the
Monroe Doctrine.

Washington June 19.--There is rea-
son to believe that the United States
will have occasion to give another in-
depreciation Of the Monroe docrtine as
applicable to the acquisition of an ISL
and off the coast Of Venezuela by Ger
many as naval station. The atten-
tion Of officials has recently been di-
rected to the interests of Germany in
that locality, and there is apprehension
that the subject may assume quite as
formidable an aspect as that Of British
aggression on Venezuelan soil.
An enormous amount of German
capital has been invested in Venezuela
Of late under peculiar circumstances.
The government wanted a railroad
through rich and productive valley,
and German syndicate stood ready to
build the road on condition that vene-
zuela would guarantee Z per cent on
the capital invested. The guarantee
was given and the road built and put
into operation about eight months ago.
At the outset, it was supposed about
81, 900, 900 would amply cover the cost
of the road, but the actual outlay
reached $8,000,00 By the terms OF
the government guarantee. Venezuela
now becomes responsible to the German
syndicate for z per cent return OH this
So, 900, 900.
The road has not been in operation
long enough to determine what it will
earn, but its most sanguine promoters
do not hope that it will pay per cent
on the outlay. Whatever it earns will
be applied on the investment, and
Venezuela will have to give sufficient
to bring the earnings up to per cent.
1t is said to be the same German in
terests that are inclining the German
government to regard with favor the
acquisition of an island off the coast,
30 be used as naval station, and as a
sort Of base of operations for Ger
many on the American continent.
The guarantee of Venezuela to the
German syndicate is of private char
acter, the German government having
no interest in the matter, but it is
looked upon as affording convenient
means by which the government, in
giving protection to its citizens, could
also carry out its desire for the acquisi-
ton of naval station. The circum.
stances are such as to lead to the belief
that the United States will again be
called upon to define to what extent
the acquisition of territory by foreign
powers in South America is compatible
with the Monroe docrtine.
Great Britain already possesses an
island at the mouth of the Orinoco, ON
which a powerful naval station has
been established. There are two other
islands near by owned by Venezuela,
either of which would be well adapted
to Germany's needs. There is another
large island further up the coast, but
constitutes a province of Venezuela,
and its people have such intense loyalty
to Venezuela that they have named il
New Spartans." They would, un-
doubtedly resist any separation, even
If Venezuela assented to it.

The Minneapolis Tribune says: Con
gresham Joseph Q, Sibley of Pcnnsyl-
wanna is put forward ms the silvcrite
candidate for the presidency. Mr.. Sib-
ley is not widely known to tho country,
but he gave tho public some taste of his
quality in his speech ut the Memphis
convention on Wednesday evening The
gist Of his speech is contained III the
four following political axioms, which,
ho says, embody the result of his study
Of the money question:
First. Double the volume Of mon
ey, and you double prices,
Second Divide the volume of
money, and you divide prices.
Third. Double tl.> volume of mon
ey, and you divide the debts
'Fourth.--Dividc the volume of
money, and you double the debts
IF Mr. Sibleys first proposition were
trne, how easy it would DO for govern
ment to regulate values by simply in
creasing or Decreasing the volume of
circulating medium. If doubling tho
volume would double values, quatrup-
ling ii would quadruplc values and in
cre!:s;ng it a thousandfold would make
every dollars worth of property worth
$1,000. In this way property could be
Increased i'll value sufficiently TO make

RIGHTS OF PROPERTY.
Tho Spirit OF Free CoinaGo Is Essentially
Socialistic In Its Tendencies.

1t cannot be denied that the spirit Of
much of tho free coinage literature is
distinctly opposed 70 those rights of
property which are ut the bottom OF our
whole social system. 1t is not ncedful
to dwell on the fact that human prog
ress is only possible when the producers
of wealth are protected i'll tho posses
sion Of all they create. Tho examples OF
those countries where property is inse-
cure is sufficient proof that the enjoy
ment of property is tho first requisite %
civilization
Various schools of agitators, such as
the socialists. communists aud auaTch
lists, are seeking to abolish tho iustitu
ton of private property. In the cheap
money agitation which is sweeping over
tho country we find the essential ideas
of the socialists. etc, in another form.
There arc i'll this country Is large num-
Dor of people who have saved little
money, which thcy havo loaned out to
others The advocates uf free silver
boldly claim that the result of the adop
ton of their money scheme would be to
take from all creditors ono half of their
property by enabling debtors to repay
their loans with dollars worth half rs
much ~ of those borrowed This is
nothing less than proposition to take
the property of those who have saved
money aud invested ii, and to givo il to
those who have borrowed, or. in other
words. the confiscation by law of one
half of all the loans of the country
When tho farmer and workingmon I'M
dorstand that this is tho real object of
the FREQ coinage agitation. will they
continue to favor the attack on private
property?
