ENGLAND CALLED
Cleveland Insists Upon Applying the
United States Version Of the
Monroe Doctrine
TO THE VENEZUELAN QUESTION
His Ringing Words Received With
Applause BY the Usually
Spdate Senate.


WAsHINGroN, Dec. l1.-Ihc president
today sent message on the Venezuelan
question to congress. lie gives the facts
in the correspondence with Great Brit
ain briefly, stating the substance OF let
ters sentanu received, Salisbury had IN
sisted that the present contention oi the
United States was entirely novel point
and Was in no way included IN TIE "rlg'-
nal Monroe doctrine," but Cleveland
maintained that the present action was
entirely III keeping with international
law and vita the principles enumerated
in the so called Monroe doctrine. nailS-
bury admits that the LngHSh govern
ment had practically agreed 10 )'le MON
roe doctrine when flrSt announced, huI
declared that the latest statement OF 1t
was entirely wrong. Cleveland agrees
with this in part, but insists that the
present action OF the United States Is
the only natural outcome 81 the primer
pie involved. lie asked that the mat
ters IN dispute he submitted 10 afbitra-
tion, but Salisbury refused lhlS
on the grounds which the pres
ident says he considers lar from
satisfactory. He regrets that such an
appeal should have produced no better
results. He says: "Ihe course to be
pursued by th!a government, IN vie" OF
the present condition, does not appear TO
admit Of serious DOUBT. Having labored
faithfully for many years TO induce Great
Britain to submit this dispute to Impair
taI arbitration, and having been now
finally apprised of her refusal tc do so,
nothing remains but to accept the situa-
ton, to recognize IFS plain requirements
and deal with it accordingly Great
Britain d present proposition has never
thus far been regarded as admissible by
VenezueIa, though any adjustment OF
the boundary which that country may
deem for her advantage and may enter
into Of her o%n free will cannot Of course
be objected to by the nited States
Assuming, however, tnat the attitude OF
Venezuela will remain unchanged, the
disl te has reached such a Stage as tc
make it now incumbcnt upon the United
States to take mea5ures TO determine w'tr
sufficient certainty for It's justification

Falls, as both participating ministers
are residents of this city. The story is
as follows
1t is more than 23 years since the first
religious services were held in the 4el-
lowstone National park. The event was
recalled the other day in a reference
made to it by County Commissioner
Muth, in an able paper read before the
Keno club, the leading aesthetic organi-
zation of KenWood. Mr.. Muth was a
participant in the services, Il member OF
the choir that sang several ny INNS, es-
rccially appropriate to the occasion.
The clergymen who participated in the
meeting were Rev. w. w. Van Orsdel,
now Superintendent of the North Mon
tana Mission Of the Methodist Episcopal
church, and Rev. f. A. Riggin, pastor
of the church at Great Fails, OF the
same denominations Most of the par
ticipants are still alive and well. Rev.
Mr.. Van Drsdel was in Helena yester-
day.

Union Happenings.

The work of the farmers in this
section has been greatly retarded by
the cold weather. Not even the pas
ture fences have been repaired.
The prospects for them are truly
discouraging, as all the grain has been
killed and it seems that it will be o
long while before they can begin Sec
ond sowing.
Mr.. J. A. Banister, ST., with some
others, took advantage of the recent
snow and went coon hunting. They
returned with two fine ones as re-
ward for their efforts.
Miss Myrt, the charming sister of
our friend, Mr.. +. Z. Rush, is attend
ing the Union school. We wish her
much success with the school duties.
Miss Maud Pratt had to suspend the
exercises of the school last week on
account of the snow. She is succeed
ing admirably with her work. Miss
Pratt is an excellent young lady and
is valuable acquisition to our social
circle.
Mr.. Whit Johnson has been confin-
ed to his home for some days. We
hope he may soon entirely recover,
and come out among us again.
We are glad to report Mr.. Jacob
Rush greatly improved. He was very
much emaciated by his attack of cold.
MIR. J. NJ. Banister, one of Bradley's
worthy young men, has been visiting
friends and relatives in our vicinity.
There seems to be some attraction for
Jim near his parental domicile.
Miss Allie Pruit lost almost all of
her gerauiums during the freeze.
Her Gala lilies were in full bud, sew
en- large buds were frozen the first
night of the blizzard. Her leopard
plants seem to be the only ones not
seriously injured.
Miss Fannie Deal attended the mar
riage of her cousin Miss Bessie Deal to
Mr.. Willie Reynolds. They were uni
ted in the holy bonds of matrimony
on the 10th inst. Mr.. Reynolds and
Miss deal are two of Edgefield's most
deserving young people, and we wish
for them much success.
Mr.. +. P. Rush carried a wagon
load of shoats to Greenwood some
days ago, and disposed of them to a
good advantage They were fine and
Of course that caused them to sell
readily.
Messrs Press Shaw and Kay Dalton
started in a wagon to Augusta, Ga,
on Thursday, the day the fearfully
cold weather commenced, and did not
return until the following Wednesday.
They carried with them 75 80 dozen
eggs, and more than hundred chick
ems. They do not report a very pleas
ant time, but one something like the
Frenchman described, 1--WE had a
heap of ups and downs, and more
downs than ups"
There was misprint in the obitua-
ry Of Mr.. J. III. Ioungblood written
by p, a. M. He was buried by his
father-inlaw, Mr.. J. Pruit, and not
by Wm, Pruit as was stated in the

Last Sabbath being SO inclement the
Union Sunday School failed to meet.
Some of the gentlemen went, notWltb-
standing the unpleasant weather.
That was the first Sabbath there hasn't

summer, effect very seriously.
