situation WAS again forcibly recalled to
the street by an advance of Il in rates
for actual bus mess, and by more or less
definite estima les as to probable gold
shipments on Saturday. No official
statements on this point Were obtainable
and the prevailing impression among
leading bankers is that the amount for

subject to colonization by charter OF

subject to colonization by charter or
any forcible entry of territory.
What President Cleveland has pro-
posed may be simplified He has de-
clared that the maintenance of the Mon
roe doctrine is of the highest import
ance to the people Of the United States,
because if European powers are per-
mitted to Cypress the weak States of
America, take forcible possession of
their territory, and extend their gov
ernmental Jurisdiction over them, there
by setting aside the rightful sovereignty
which has already been extended by
the people Of America over these con-
tinents then there is no security against
such arbitrary action on the part of
these powers as would eventually draw
our own country into war.
| Believing the Monroe doctrine to be
| tenance of peace between the United
States and European powers, he de-
clares that the United States is upon
| inquiry as to whether the action of
Great Britain is arbitrary or is justified.
If it is arbitrary if Great Britain is
attempting to wrest by superior force a
part of the territory which rightfully be-
longs to Venezuela, then we are in the
presence of a condition which was ap-
plicable only to the primitive stages of
the settlement of these continents.
He has asked Congress to make a
sufficient appropriation to enable him
to send a commission to ascertain
whether or not the title given by the
Dutch to the territory in dispute is a
valid title. In short he asks for au-
! thority to officially ascertain the merits
/ of this controversy, and he has said
that if England is simply relying upon
her superior prowess to rob an Amer
lean State of a part of her territory,
then the United States will resist with
all means at it's command the perpetra-
ton of such an outrage. There is moth
ing else derivable from the message.
The declaration of Salisbury that the
Monroe doctrine does not apply in this
case is true only if it be true that Eng
land has right to the territory now in
dispute. 1t is not true if it shall be dis
closed that England is wrongfully lay
ing claim to territory that rightfully
belongs to Venezuela.

The record-union., 1895-12-20

L
United States IS irrefragible. The pro-
ceeding he has proposed is statesman
like. The Monroe doctrine must be
maintained. The perpetuation of peace
is involved in it's maintenance. Better
ten years of war than the humiliation
of abandoning that great doctrine. The
people of the United States are with
the President in making this issue. One
house of Congress has already made the
necessary appropriation, and the Presi-
dent should proceed with the examina
ton 1t should be impartial, and, If after
reached that England is wantonly in
vading the rights of a South American
State to secure territory, the United
States will resist that encroachment
even at the hazard and cost of war.
The question will naturally arise in the
mind Of the reader as to whether an ex
parte commission appointed by the
President of the United States is quail
fed to decide so grave a matter. 1t
must not, however, be forgotten that
when a nation declares a doctrine which
is to be the guide of its policy, it alone
has the right of determination as to
whether the exigency which calls for
the application of the doctrine has
arisen. To state this in another form: it
would constitute an abandonment of
the Monroe doctrine to permit a Euro
pean Power to determine whether the
issue between itself and an American
State was such as to justify the appli-
cation of the doctrine. Having declared
the policy outlined in the Monroe doc
| trine to be the fixed and unalterable pol
! icy of America, this nation alone has the
right to determine whether the doctrine
| itself has been infringed. The refusal Of
| England to arbitrate the difficulties be-
tween itself and Venezuela will very
soon appear in the light Of a great diplo-
matte mistake. 1t confers upon America
! the right OF action winch the PRESIDENT
| has proposed in this matter. The
United States at first proposed an arbi-
tration of the difficulty. That being re-
fused, it is on inquiry as to whether
the proposed action Cd England relat-
| ing to the territory of Venezuela con-
stitutes an infraction of a doctrine
which is embedded in the traditions Of
the country and has come to possess au-
thority equal to the Constitution itself.

The Astorian incorrectly stated that
County Clerk Dunbar had gone to Sa-
lem to appear before a committee rela-
tive to overcharges paid on state taxes
from This county. The word paid"
should have been left out. The amount
due from Clatsop county is $50, SJ96S
for 1922, and the bill mentioned is
for the relief of Clatsop to the extent
OF S1O6OO. which is made up from
amounts which this county has been
unable to collect on mortgages, double
assessments, etc. Mr.. Dunbar carries
complete lists in duplicate, one of which
will be given to Representatives Lester
and Curtis, and the other to Senator
Smith. Judge Gray will go up the lat
ter part of this week and will appear
before the senate committee on the
same proposition.
