c~LEvELAsD's MESSAGE.

The Presidents Venezuelan mes.
sage receives the support Of the PEG,
pie without regard to party. The
press, with the exception Of the World
and Post of New York, Is a unit in
favor Of the enforcement Of the doc
trines so clearly set forth In the mes
sage. Instead Of the President being
supported by his party alone, party
distinctions are laid aside and a unit
ed people present a solid front, ready
to take up arms, if necessary. to sus-
tain the honor of the Nation.
The,action of the House yesterday
In unanimously authorizing the ap-
pointment OF the commission asked
for by the President and appropriat-
ing 100000 TO defray its expenses,
shows there Is no division Of senti-
ment among our lawmakers when the
honor OF the country ls mt stake. The
partisan forgets his party and thinks
only of his country's flag.
The message boldly tells England
that she must either submit her
claims to a portion OF Venezuela's
ter ritory to arbitration or fight. There
ia NO danger OF immediate war, how
ever, as the future course OF the Unit
ed States in the controversy will de.
pend entirely upon the report OF the
commission appointed to investigate
the boundary dispute. II that should
be in favor OF England, Venezuela
will ha We to submit. On the contra
ry, should it be shown that England
has no right to the disputed territory,
there would be but two courses open
to her to pursue-arbitrate or fight.
Should she choose the latter, the
United States would be compelled
to accept the challenge or lose the re-
Hpect OF the civilized world.
President Cleveland has pointed out
the path OF duty and should England
appeal TO arms the patriotism OF sev-
enty millions OF people will uphold
their country's honor.
