LOCAL BRITISH AND AMERICAN OPINIONS

The citizens of Los Angeles yesterday
were all aglow with feeling of patriotism
and. national pride. Everybody on the
streets and in the shops, men and women,
was discussing the presidents message on
the Venezuelan imbroglio and the possi-
bility and probability of war with Great
Britain. There we're few men who could
be found who did not indorse the stand
taken by President Cleveland, and every
one admitted that his message was most

States. Mr.. Gibbon in talking to a report
er gave the following interesting detail:
Il think that President Cleveland, in
his message, demonstrates by the clearest
logic that that principle known as the
Monroe doctrine is entitled to be consd-
cred as part of International law.
"International law Is nothing more than
a code of action laid down by several states
to govern their conduct and dealings to-
ward each other.
sit is intended, as l understand the
matter. for the protection of each and all
the nations. So where the recognition of
certain principles becomes necessary to
the protection of the material interests,
honor or integrity of nation in it's deal
ings with other nations, that nation has q
right to insist that that principle shall be-
come recognized part of International
law and to enforce such insistence by re-
sort TO force if such recognition cannot be
otherwise obtained.
"President Cleveland's message clearly
demonstrates that the Monroe doctrine
embodies such principle, when applied
to our national interests and well being
Furthermore.heh has shown that the present
controversy between Great Britain and
Venezuela is a perfectly proper instance
for its application.

sage as as great a stale paper as was ever
issued in the history of the country.
twill it lead to war, you ask. do not
think so. 1t appears to me such result
could not be afforded by Great Britain.
The herald., 1895-12-19

/ So 900, ,OOO,OO invested in the American
republics. When peace was declared the
United states would certainly secure for
it's allies all that it had taken for itself.
You will, therefore, see that in the
matter of wipng out debts war
between the United States and Great
Britain just now on the lines that have
been drawn, would prove most expensive
to the latter nation. more so than the civil
war was to us in point of dollars and cents.
'Another result of war just at present
would be the freedom of Canada from
British control. OF course the United
States would not insist on annexing
Canada without the consent and approval
of Canadians. But the United States
would in all probability insist upon Canada
becoming an independent republic.
with all of these probable results star
ing Great Britain in the face and the inn
mediate loss of ten billions of dollars,
there is infinite reason for England to go
slow. Then, too, Great Britain has another
reason to be careful about embroiling her.
self with the United States. The state of
Europe is such just at present that she has
no ardent desire to send her ships of war
from 5000 to 5000 miles away from home.
She may need them for the protection of
her interests on her own door steps,
John L. Francis considered the presi-
dents message to be one of the greatest
state papers he had ever read. He was in-
clined to think that there was no immedi-
ate prospect of any collision between the
United States aud Great Britain, but he

building firm, on the subject of possible
war with Great Britain, growing out of the
presidents attitude on the Venezuelan
question. Mr.. Cramp does not think there
will be an immediate order for new vessels,
for he says those ordered now would hardly
be available il needed soon, as it takes at
least two years to build a battleship.
He said: "The presidents message is
just so strong as it represents the national
strength on the sea. Without a single bat
tleship it would be weak and beneath
notice; with one such vessel it would de-
mand some attention, and so on as the
number increases, until, If backed up by
twenty, it would be unanswerable. Now
what is the United States strength as to
battleships? There are available, or will
be in a few months, four of the first-class
tho Indiana, Massachusetts, Iowa and
Oregon. Then there are the Texas and
Maine, of the second class, the Monterey,
which has demonstrated her ability to go
on sea cruises: Miantonomah, which is
smaller than the Monterey, and the Amphi-
trite, Of the monitor class. There is the
Terror, the Puritan and the Monadnock.
With this showing it can be seen what
strength the presidents message has"
When asked how long it would take to
transform the four ocean greyhounds of
the American line to war vessels as stipu-

thought that if it did come it would have
the effect of nuiting all sections and all
classes in this country in bond of SYM
pathy, fellowship and brotherhood that
had not been known in years. Everybody
would drop everything and fly to the aid OF
country.
Major Harry w. Patton of the Capital
could not find language to express his
high opinion of the president for the bold,
manly, dignified and truly American stand
he had taken. The major said that he had
talked with fifteen eX-union soldiers and
they had each and every one expressed
desire to volunteer in the event
war was declared. AS illustrating
the fact that war would truly heal
any breach between north and south,
Major Patton said that the fifteen en-
Union veterans he had spoken to had all
agreed to enlist under the captaincy of
Captain Cameron K. Thorn, who wore the
gray during the fratracidal struggle of the
early sixties.
Charles Mcfarland was the only Ameri-
can citizen found who. thought that Mr..
Cleveland was making big fuss about
very small thing. He said that the presi-
dent was playing to the grand stand. Mr..
Mcfarland stood alone in his opinion.

Britain and Yenezu sla is dangerous to the
National safety he says that which every
body knows to be ridiculous. The presi-
dent emphasizes unduly a single phase of
the Monroe doctrine, without taking into
account the special circumstances which
the Monroe doctrine was intended to meet.
In the whole matter the Monroe doctrine
should be kept out OF sight as inappiicable,
and the question should be argued OH
grounds of national policy. The presi-
dent finds his offer of arbitration declined.
He now announces himself as mediator.
But the mediator known to International
law must be accepted by both parties, who
are also both free to reject his decision. In
this case neither party made the president
q mediator. and he announces his inten-
ton to enforce a decision. He is, therefore,
not the mediator, but the dictator. Com
pulsOry mediation in this case is as much
out Of place as would have been similar
proposition in our northeast and northwest
boundary disputes"
Prof. Wolsey said he regarded Eugland's
refusal of arbitration as a mistake. Re-
ferring to the message of the president he
said:

Boston, Dec. 1S.-Robert Treat Payne,
president of the American Peace society,
today sent the following cablegram to the
Marquis of Salisbury:
us it possible that Great Britain prefers
war to arbitration? America wants arbi-
tration and peace. Two nations-one
people,"
ANOTHER PROFESSOR
BosroN, Dec Isl. H. Beale, jr., pro-
fessor of international law at Harvard uni
versity, says it is erroneous to believe the
presidents assertions in the Venezuelan
question are justified by international law.
They are merely an affirmation OF a ma
tional policy, but one which proved by
usage to be a sound and desirable one.
AS to the enforcement of the doctrine by
this government, "by every means in his
power" Prof. Beale says. Force is the
only tribunal which can pass on the ques-
ton, it being admitted that no principle of
international law is Involved"
Prof. Beale referred to the fact that the
Monroe doctrine, adopted by this country,
at the suggestion of England to thwart the
designs of the Holy alliance, pleased Eng
land then. but IN the present case the boot
appears to be on the other leg. When
asked to cite precedent, if any existed,
for President Cleveland's action, Prof.
Bsale referred to the controversy between
this country and France over the occupa-
ton of Mexico by Maximilian's army, in
which the principle involved was the same
as now, though the cause of the dispute
was different.
The herald., 1895-12-19

Take this consideration for instance. Ac-
cording to the best authority obtainable
there is due from the United States and
citizens of this country $5,O0O,OOO,O 900.
When war is declared between two
nations it not only becomes impos-
sble for the creditor citizens Of
once beiigerent nation to collect
a debt from the debtor citizen
of the other belligerent nation by any pro.
cess of law. On the other hand by we'll
organized legal principles it becomes
treason for the debtor citizen to pay his
debt to the creditor citizen OF his country's s
opponent.
'In other words, war between two ma
tons always means contiscation of debts
owed by the citizens of the successful
party to the citizens of the defeated
nation.
"Assuming that the United States will
be successful in the final outcome of the
present controversy, the result would be
that on the first day that war is declared
the United States will collect war in
demnity of 5000 millions of dollars.
This principle of law that have referred
to has been applied in our. own courts after
the revolutionary war and would be de-
clared again.
''Such vast sum as | have noted &C

drills were to have taken place being in
British hands.
The plans of the squadron, however, will
not be fixed until Secretary Herbert re-
turns to Washington.
The armored cruiser Maine was today
attached to the North Atlantic squadron.
The message of President Cleveland
was prepared with remarkable rapidity
considering the length of the document
and the Importance of the subject treated.
The president wrote every line of it with
out having recourse to dictation. Return
ing to Washington Sunday afternoon he
had conference with Secretary Olney and
Secretary Lamont that night, and then,
sitting down to his desk, he worked unre-
mittingly until nearly o'clock Monday
morning. The result was fifteen pages of
manuscript in the presidents peculiarly
small hand, and it was all in print before
II o'clock that same morning.
