a Paris journal Thinks We Are Not strong
Enough 70 Enforce u.


IoNDoV. Doc. l0.--The Paris CORE
spondont OF The TIMES quotes an article
from Tho Journal dea Dehats commenting
upon the Venezuelan dispute, which says:
'ln spite Of It's immonso industrial
power the United States does not possess
the military and naval forces which, after
all. are at the bottom OF every diplomatic
discussion which IS carried rather far. -
The Times also publishes an editorial
commenting upon the foregoing subject,
which contends that tho Monroe doctrine
cannot bo applied either 70 the boundary
limo dispute or to Great Britain's demand
for roparatiun on account Of outrages upon
the officers Of British Guiana.
1T is no moro possible" says Tho
Times, Ito submit the territory within
tho Schomburgk line TO arbitration than
it would be for the United States to sub.
nit 60 arbitration should Spain set up n
claim to a part Of Florida. The remarks
OF The journal dos Dcbats are not con-
coiycd in friendly or n delicate spirit
but they have an element of truth which
sensible Americans cannot ignore 1t Is
easy to sec that II this controversy is not
skillfully handled a state of things might
arise among the III governed Central and
South American republics which would
involve tho United States in a large ex-
penditure for the army and navy which Is
now happily unnecessary -
