A BIT OF HISTORY.

A Washington paper, referring to
lecture delivered before the National
Geographical Society by Chairman Proc
tor, of the Civil-service Commission,
says that sin the course of his lecture
he brought out the novel proposition
that the Monroe doctrine was. inaugu-
rated originally at the instance of Great
Britain The proposition may be novel
to those who have given the subject
little or no investigation, but it is never
theless true. The so-called Monroe doc
trine. concerning which a vast amount
of misconception and misinformation
has prevailed, would never have been
declared but for England. 1t owes it's
existence to the fact that after the
overthrow OF Napoleon / Russia Aus
tria, Prussia and France entered into an
alliance for the suppression of revolu-
tionary movements and the maintenance
of the existing order of things, in all
European states. At the first two con-
crosses of the alliance, held in 1920, Eng
land participated. In 1922. however.
there having been change of Ministry.
the British government determined to
withdraw from the alliance. The British
Secretary, George Canning, thought he
had reason to believe that the principle
of Intervention to suppress revolutions
would be applied by the alliance to the
Spanish colonies in South America. as
it had already been done in Spain itself.
England had profited very considerably
in commercial way by the indie
pendence of these colonies and was In
terested in maintaining their indie
pendence, which is her general attitude
towards all colonies except her own. In
1923 Mr.. Canning communicated his sus-
picions regarding the intentions of the
minister at London, and expressed an
earnest desire that the United States
should join with him in endeavoring to
thwart the supposed object of the allied
powers so far as the South American
States We're concerned. This suggestion
of the British Secretary was purely
selfish one, but he made it appear that
it was the interest as well as the pa
triotic duty of the United States to pre-
vent the re-establishment OF Spanish
rule in South America, especially by the
intervention of other powers Con-
sideration OF the subject in several Cab
met meetings led to the celebrated
declaration against European interven-
ton in American affairs in President
Monroe's annual message of 1929. Two
years later, when it was found that

senate VIII Vote ON the Measure To-
DaY-The HAWAIIAN Resolution.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-The vote on the
Nicarauguan canal bill will be taken up in
the Senate at o'clock tomorrow after
noon unless some unexpected parliament
ary obstruction is interposed. In view or
the speedy elimination of the long debate,
there was added interest to-day in the
speeches and much speculation on the out
come OF the long struggle. Mr.. White
spoke in advocacy of the bill. Mr.. Morgan,
in charge of the measure. will close the
debate tomorrow. Mr. Morgan is confident
he has a majority in favor of the bill.
There has been no test vote, however, to
Indicate with any certainty what the result
will be- There has been vigorous and bitter
opposition to the bill, and Mr.. Turpie, who
has led the opposition, is not yet ready
to concede that the bill will pass. Another
chapter to the Hawaiian question was add
ed to-day, Mr.. Allen presenting resolu-
ton for annexation. and Mr.. George max
ing a speech supporting the administration
policy Another new Senator, Mr.. Prtch-
ard, North Carolina Republican, was
sworn in during the day. The session
closed with the rapid passage of twenty
one pension bills
There was such a meager attendance at
the opening of the Senate that Mr.. Hoar
called attention to the absence OF quorum
and roll call was necessary before BUSH
ness could proceed. Among the bills intro
duced was one by MIR. Chandler to prevent
the tapping of telegraph wires used by news
associations.
Mr. Mitchell of Oregon, sought to secure
the passage of a resolution calling on the
Treasury Department for detailed informal
ton as to sugar bounty claims, but obiec-
ton was made and the resolution Went over.
Mr. Allen then presented his Hawaiian
resolution as follows.
Resolved, That il is the sense of the Sem
ate that the revolu sionary government hav-
ing become the established government of
the Hawaiian islands, that wise and en-
llghtened foreign policy requires that steps
should be taken by this government without
unnecessary delay to annex those islands

Oregon will be completed. These splendid
specimens of modern naval construction
Will cost about So, $50, 900 each. 1t is morti-
flying to learn that there is not in the
country a dry dock sufficiently large to
receive these ships Three such docks are
in course of construction, but it appears
that the government gave the contracts for
the work TO men who have more influence
in politics than skill in construction. One
of these docks Is to be located in Brooklyn,
another at Port Royal, S. c.. and the other
on Puget sound, in the State of Washing
ton. The Brooklyn dock ought to be ready
June ], and it is said that it will not be
completed within twenty months. The Port
Royal dock should have been finished, ac-
cording to the contract, in April, 1893. 1t
is not yet nearing completion. The Puget
sound dock contractor has until Dec. to
do his work, and it is said that he will take
all the time he is allowed by his agreement
and MANY months in addition.
