PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
CONGRESS INFORMED OF OUR FOR
EIGN RELATIONS AND FINANCES.
Venezuelan Question Made an Occasion
for Reiterating Monroe Doctrine.
G~reenbacks Should BE Retired and
National Bank Notes Substituted.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 3.-The presidents
message, read before congress Tuesday,
deals almost entirely with our foreign re-
lations and the financial question, depart
mental reports being entirely left out. In
the beginning of the message the president
says:
The present assemblage of the legisla-
tive branch of our government occurs at a
time when the interests of our people and
the needs of the country give especial
prominence to the condition Of u for
cign relations and the e~xigencies of our
national finances. The reports of the
heads of the several administrative de-
partments of the government fully and
plainly exhibit what has been accom-
pllshed within the scope of their respec-
tive duties and present such recommends
ions for the betterment of our country's
condition as patriotic and intelligent labor
and observation suggest. / therefore
deem my executive duty adequately per-
formed at this time by presenting to con-
gress the important phases of our situa-
tion as related to our intercourse with
foreign nations and a statement of the
financial problems which confront us,
omitting, except as they are related to
these topics, any reference to departmental
Onerations

Would Sell Bonds Abroad.

To further insure the cancellation of
these notes and also provide a way by
which gold may be added to our currency
in lieu of them, a feature in the plan
should be an authority given to the score
tary of the treasury to dispose of the
bonds abroad for gold if necessary to
complete the contemplated redemption
and cancellation, permitting him to use
the proceeds of such bonds to take up
and canoe any of the notes that may be
in the treasury or that may be received by
the government on any account.
The increase of our bonded debt in
volved in this plan would be amply COM
penseted by renewed activity and enter
prise in all business circles, the restored
confidence at home, the reinstated faith
in II monetary strength abroad and the
stimulation of every interest and industry
that would follow the cancellation Of the
gold demand obligations now affecting us.
As a substitute currency the president
would authorize the increase of national
bank circulation. He would also grad.
ually coin the seigniorage. He does not
see how the free coinage of silver could
cure prevailing financial ills.
The question of revenue does not enter
INTO the present difficulty, and an increase
IN receipts of the government would not
aeip matters materially.

The Venezuelan Matter.


In the matter of the dispute between
England and Venezuela, which involves
probably more directly than any question
Of late years the Monroe doctrine, the
president says the position of this govern
ment was fully and distinctly set forth.
The general conclusions therein reached
and formulated are, in substance, that the
traditional established policy of this gov
eminent is firmly opposed to a forcible
increase by any European power of its ter
ritorial possessions on this continent: that
this policy is az we'll founded in principle
as it is strongly supported by numerous
presidents; that as a consequence the
United States II Bound to Protest
against the enlargement of the area Of
British-Guiana in ~derogation of the rights
and against the will of Venezuela, that
considering the disparity in the strength
Of Great Britain and Venezuela the terri
torial dispute between them can be reas-
onably settled only by friendly and i'm
partial arbitration and that the report of
such arbitration should include the whole
controversy, and is not satisfied IL one of
the powers concerned is permitted to draw
an arbitrary line through the territory In
debate and to declare that 1t will submit
TO arbitration only the portion lying ON
one side of it. The answer of Great Brit
ain has not yet been received.

THE CENrAUR COMPANY, n MURRAY STREET. New YORK CRY
The pioneer press. (Miller, Hand County, S.D.) 1893-190?, 1895-12-05

After reviewing the financial troubles of
the government, the president says;
am convinced the only thorough and
practicable remedy for our troubles is
found in the retirement and cancellation
of our United States notes, commonly
called greenbacks, and the outstanding
treasury notes issued by the government
in payment of silver purchases under the
act of 1890. l believe this could be quite
readily accomplished by the exchange of
these notes for United States bonds of
small as we'll as large denominations bear
ing a low rate of interest. They should
be long term bonds, thus increasing their
desirability as investments and because
the payment could be well postponed to a
period far removed from preset financial
burdens and perplexities, when with in
creased prosperity and they
would be more easily met.
