correspondent of the RcpuJl,c, but the fact is that that the President is probably in absolute and bIissful ig- norance of what either the editor of the Conanaercidi-Appe or the Wash ington correspondent of the Repab- lic had to say about his foreign pol icy and perfectly indifferent to either or both. It is not to be pre- sumed that with his many responsi- ble and multitudinous duties, the President devotes much of his time to the space-killing speculations of correspondents and editors. The same charge of plagiarism was made against Thomas Jefferson in his day. It was charged by his enemies that the immortal declaration of our in l dependence. of which Mr. Jefferson was the author, possessed nothing new or original, but was composed simply of the hackneyeG statements and sayings of the news paper press of that period. Bui notwithstanding all of this the Dec laration of Independence is an i'm mortal document and masterly DO litieal paper. So will be our ney Declaration of Independence of al foreign powers, recently enunciatet by Stephen Grover Cleveland, Presi dent of these United States It vii go down in history as one of th' most famous of State papers, an, will be a vital force-living an' breathing the spirit of Amerieanisr and our independence-when tn name and fame Of the self assume authors of that declaration are dea

THE steady and rapid withdrawals of gold from tbe Treasury has led President Cleveland to send in another special message to Congress arging Congress not to take any re- cess for the holidays until some leg islation is enacted for the relief of the Treasury and the world reas- sured of the determination of the Government to meet all of it's obli- gations in the standard money of the world. This message was tine re suit of a Cabinet conference called to discuss the decline in American securities and the large withdrawals of gold from the sub-Treasury al New York for export

THE morning after President Cleveland sent his special Venezu-
 elan message to Congress the Mem
 phis Conlmerciat-Appeal, with much
 boasting and vainglory, assumed for itself the authorship of the message, and straightway the brilliant Car mack, under the editorial caption of
 "Our Message" proceeded to quote extracts from the C.-A. of date Octo- Der l3 to show that he enjoyed the distinguished compliment and honor of having put ideas and thoughts into the Presidents head and words into the Presidents mouth. But now another has appeared on the field to contest so rare and extraor
 dinary an honor us that claimed by the editor of the Commercial-A Appeal, and this new contestant is the St.
 Louis Republic In it's issue of yes
 terday the Republic claims that it outlined the policy for the President to pursue in the Venezuelan matter in its issue of June 9 last, in support of which it copies copiously from it's Washington correspondent. Ac- cording to these distinguished lumi- naries, in writing his message tine President simply performed a purely perfnnctory duty and all he had to do was to give the sanction of his Signature so their words. Of conrse all s.i ihis snnnd4 well and is very soothing to the vanity of Carmack and ssIys 9 9 tnsTien aooTe, the Washington

THE pretension of the English government in it's belief that the Presidents special message in ref erence to the Venezuelan boundary dispute was simply a political trick" can no longer be indulged in by Her Majesty government. The prompt action of the House and Senate in passing the Venezuelan commission bill giving the President full power to appoint commission of either three Or five members without the advice and consent of the Senate in said appointments is ample evidence that the President is fully sustained in his position and that this country is intensely in earnest in it's demands that the dis pute be arbitrated. We have politi- cal parties and factions in this country with diversified beliefs as to economic measures, but as against foreign governments we are one consolidated Nation. By this time, doubtless, Lord Salisbury real izes that he must either consent to arbitration or fight the United States.

THERE are Snohs, Tories and Trai- tors in this country now as there was in 1776. That class of timid, cowardly and eroaking cravens would rather sacrifice the independ- ence, manhood and liberties of their country for the sake of the few dol lars such disgrace would bring than to engage in a war for the autonomy of their Government and the honor of their Nation which would sacrifice few dollars to gain so priceless a prize.

THE Presidents special message asserting the application of the Monroe0doctrine to the British-Ven- ezuela boundary dispute was re- ceived with enthusiasm by the Con- gress of Brazil. A congratulatory message was cabled the President by the Brazilian Senate, and in Rio de Janeiro mass meeting was held at which resolutions were adopted upholding the Monroe doctrine. The American governments, large and small, recognize the fact that their safety rests in maintaining the in tegrity of the Monroe doctrine.

TnE House Venezuelan commission bill was passed by the Senate Fri day, after a stirring discussion, by a unanimous viva voce vote. By this time Lord Salisbury has doubtless concluded that the administration in it's declared purpose of enforcing the Monroe doctrine, is not bluting. It is apparent that the American Gov ernment is ready to back up it's de. mand that the Venezuelan boundary dispute be arbitrated.

WHERE THEY ARE 'A4.o

Speaker Reed announced Saturday the appointment Of his committees for the present Congress and it is gratifying to all Arkansans to know that the members of the Arkansas delegation were given good and prominent positions in the makeup of the Fifty-fourth Congress. Con gressman Mccullough, of the First District, Is a member of committees on Rivers and Harbors and Private Land Claims; Congressman Little, of the Second District, was appointed
 on the Indian Affairs and Public
 Buildings and Grounds committees; Congressman McRea, of the Third District, was appointed on the com mittees on Coinage, Weights and Measures and Public Lands; Con- gressman Terry, of the Fourth Dis trict, is member Of the Judiciary Committee; Congressman Dinsmore, of the Fifth District, is member of the committee on Foreign Affairs and Elections, and Congressman NeiIl, of
 the Sixth District, is made a mem- Der of the committees on Mines and Mining and War Claims.
 Considering the fact that the House is overwhelmingly Republi- can, the. Arkansas Congressman have fared exceedingly well, and it is apparent that they got what they wanted. They are eminently and specially qualified for the positions to which they have been assigned. By reason of his experience in the diplomatic department of the Gov ernment Mir. Dinsmore's appoint ment as a member of the committee on Foreign Affairs is especially fit ting and proper. This can also be said of the appointment of Judge Little, of this district, as member of the Indian Affairs committee, for Judge Little has travelled over nearly every foot of ground in the Indian Territory and is especially familiar with the conditions there and the needs and wants of the Indians. The appointment of Col Terry to the Judiciary committee is a fitting recognition of his legal abilities and attainmenis, and is great eompli- ment to his district and State. By reason of his familiarity with land questions the appointment of Mir. hhicffieit US 5t member Of Of the commit tee on Public Lands is pre-eminenty proper. Gen. Neills appointment as a member of the committee on Mines and Mining $ especially fftt- ing and appropriate, because that deals with questions in which Gen. Neill and large part of his district are especially interested.
 No matter how other Democi attic were disposed of in the committee appointments, the Ar kansas delegation could not have fared better. exeep to have been made chairmen of the various com to which they were respect ively assigned, which, of course, was not 10 be expected in this Re 1 publican Congress.

recognize the fact that there was in reality only one America, and that in crisis such as the present one every republic on the continent, from the pigmy San Salvador to the giant Brazil, would coalesce as if by magic and follow the United States in battle, to preserve and defend the integrity of their territory
 against European aggression.

THE foreign policy of Great Britain from time immemorial has been one of grasping greed, tyranny, buster and insult. The British Govern ment is actuated by the beastly principle that might makes right
 Without the shadow of title it is ready to set up claim to anything in sight with the view of getting out of it what it can. For instacne,
 witness the Behring Sea claim, tn Oregon and Alaska boundary dis pute, and now its enlarged Vene- zuelan claim. The Alaskan claim was never discovered by Great Britain until after the discovery of gold in that territory; neither did its claim on Venezuela reach it's present proportions until after the discovery of gold on the territory at present claimed by Great Britain. In the North, East, South and West the policy of Great Britain is the same-a policy of grasping greed and avarice This0haughty power needs to be humi.iated, and as much as we regret tine horrors and losses consequent upon war, we are in favor of the United States admins tering the "drubbing" if nothing else will suit Her Majesty's Govern ment.

DR. W. P. PALMER, Commander of the Richmond, (Va.) Howitzers during the late war, while condem- ing President Cleveland's Venezu- elan message the other day was par alyzed and has not been able to speak since. This is just punish ment to one who upraises his voice against a principle so dear and sacred and necessary to the stabil- ity and well-being of our Republic as the Monroe doctrine and should serve as warning to others.
