WHAT MONROE MEANT.

The Herald has endeavored to make
clear to its readers the meaning and
scope of the Monroe doctrine because
there is a great amount of ignorance
ON the subject. Unfortunately it pre-
walls among the newspapers as well
as the masses of the people. And,
what is worse than that. there is an
evident intent to misinterpret the doc
trine, in order to throw blame upon
the present administration for its non

"THE DISHONEST DOLLAR"

| This is the title of a, book published
by The Herald Publishing company Of
Salt Lake, a brief notice of which has
already appeared. Its author is Sidney
| Dell, Of Oregon. The executive com
mittee of the Bimetallic Union passed
yesterday resolution instructing its
members to vote by letter to the secre-
tary upon it's adoption as an educa-
tional book along with COINS Finan-
ciaI School,
1t is "a tale of the panic of 49," The
expressive notices on its title page are
the following quotations: 1.-THE Dis
honest Dollar Has Ruined This Ma
tion," and '~The Money of Hamilton
and Jefferson is good enough for US 4"
The story is located in Washington, D.
c. The hero is named Sibley, a bril-
liant young millionaire, who is a
widower. The heroine is Helene
Browne, a gifted daughter of d ma
tional banker. Harold Boissevan,
agent of the House of Rothchild at
Washington, is a leading character.
w. P. ST. John also cuts an important
figure. Sibley's daughter, Ruth, be-
comes engaged to Harold, who deserts
Rothschild. The weddings are to take
place March 5. 1897, after free silver
shall have triumphed.
The story is well sustained and the
awful evils of "the dishonest dollar
created by the gold unit of value" of
1873 are presented in most graphic
and entertaining manner. But the
gems of the book are in chapters III
and VI. wherein are told the history
of the House of Rothschild and its
dazzling wealth and the history of the
crime of '73 procured by that house.
These chapters are strictly historic and
meet one Of the most intense demands
of the voting and thinking American
public.
The tenth and last chapter Is entitled
''Who is Sibley?" It compliments Hon.
Joseph c. Sfbley but shows it is not
he. It may be Don Cameron, or
Senator Teller or any other great
American, including that young Doug
lass of the west, Hon. w. ]. Bryan.
The book takes up the unit of value
where Coin leaves it. 1t bids fair to
cause sensation equal to '"Trilby''
and Coins Financial School, It is
scholarly and entertaining.

FOOLISH CHURCH CANYONS.

The Anglican church, or Episcopal, or
Church of England, whichever you
please to call it. does not countenance
the marriage of divorced persons.
There is an organization in Great Bri-
tain called the English Church Union,
which IS interested in maintaining the
rites and rules and discipline as well
as doctrinal tenets Of the Episcopal
church. 1t has commenced a move
ment to compel the Bishops of that
church to define their position as to
the legality of such unions.

ceremony in st. Marks church, North

the Rev. William Black. rose among

that the bridegroom had been divorced
by his first wife. The officiating cler-
gyman, nevertheless. continued the
ceremony, relying upon the authority
of a special license granted by the
chancellor of the Diocese of London.
Such an unwonted interruption of a
wedding naturally attracted much pub
lie attention and was followed by so
copious and heated a discussion in the
that the chancellor thought
it necessary to make formal explana-
ton of his connection with the affair
from the bench of the Consistory
Court.

opinion he declared in effect that in

heard Rice upbraiding Cora in loud and
angry tone. No attention was paid to this,
however, as it was no uncommon occur
renee for the couple to quarrel. The
woman must have retired to bed. Rice
took a razor and when Cora was asleep the
supposition is that he drew the razor and
cut her throat from ear TO ear. The wind
pipe and all the arteries were severed, so
the unfortunate woman was unable to
make any outcry, and died in a few
seconds.
Rice, alias Inman, alias O'Neil, was
formerly manager of Browns Theater in
Sacramento. About six years ago he met
Cora Long, who was then the wife of Jack
Long, a dive-keeper in the capital city.
Cora deserted her husband and Rice de-
serted his wife and boy. The two then
joined company and came to San Fran

have occurred during space of about forty
minutes when he was out of the room.

Mrs. Cottren is well-preserved woman,
whose age is perhaps 55 years, but who,
aside from her white hair, does not look

and rather stout, but her eyes are still
bright and unprotected by glasses, and in
her handsome face there is not wrinkle.
Her home, at no Fourteenth street, Oak
land, is substantial two-story structure,
and it is furnished richly, but with ele-
gance and quiet taste.
Attorney Highton when questioned last
night concerning the letter mentioned by
Mrs. Cottrell, acknowledged that he had
received such document and that in it
the lady stated that she had received $50
to leave the city to prevent her from ap-
pearing as witness in the case.
'Was Mr.. Morse mentioned as the per-
son who had paid the money!" was asked.
Mr.. Highton evinced considerable reluc-
lance to answering the question, but upon
being urged for a reply, responded in the
affirmative.
