any dignity to impart to others.
But debate might afford Mr.. Carl.
isle an opportunity to explain some
things concerning which he has been
silent. For instance: In
1873 he complained that the secretary Of
the treasury (Jno. 6herman) was in
sympathy with the idle holder of idle
capital rather than with the Struggling
masses who produce the taxes 81 the
country, and that his sympathies con.
trolled his ofacial conduct. Il would

The action Of the Augusta Bicycle Clut
In voting against holding the l.. A. W.

The L. A. W. is an organization which
includes representation from all parts OF

much influence. We believe it would
sacrifice not little Of that influence by
again officially proclaiming Memorial day
rs a holiday for wheelmen. Individual
preferences AS to the manner in which the
day shall be spent cannot be interfered
with to any great extent, but an organ
ization like the L. A. W. should be able
to regulate itself in such matter and 1t
seems to us that the desirabilty of so
doing must be apparent to the leading
men OF this association Chief Consul

The House of Representatives, without a

sent gave to the President yesterday the
authority he requested for the appoint
ment of commission to examine the
Venezuelan boundary dispute. The reso-
luton of the House may be amended by
the Senate in some way that describes
how the commission shall be appointed,
but, in the end and promptly, there is no
doubt that the President will be equipped
with all the power he requires to enable
him to carry out the policy indicated in
his message. No partisan consideration
has appeared. either in the newspapers or

war is not possible, or that commercial
interests or any other may be relied upon
to prevent it, There are many in this
country who remember that both south
and North it was commonly believed,
until the actual clash of arms came, that
the great Civil War would not be fought.
The ties of kindred, the intimate relations
of trade were thought to be sufficient to
prevent It. But there was great prin
ciple at stake, one that had to be settled,
however great the sacrifice, and accord
ingIy that sacrifice was made. We do not
think the English leaders will overlook
this chapter in history. Assurcdly Ameri-
cans cannot afford to do so and while
hoping for the best should not hesitate to
prepare for the worst.

And Still Another Message.

A Democratic administration, with
full power, reduced the nations revenues,
turned the tide of gold toward Europe,
and by the grossest incompetcncy in fin
ancicring has placed the country in an
embarrassing situation. And all this was
done to carry out their free trade theories.
Now, when the Republicans get control
of the House, President Cleveland has
another pet theory, this time a financial
one He informed the country on the
opening day Of Congress that unless the
Republican party adopted his latest pei
theory, the blame would be upon The
shoulders Of the Republican party. He
has no excuse for the neglect of IL Demo
Garlic Congress to adopt bis scheme. Fri
day, he wrote another message. Some
thing must be done to rcplenish the treas
ury which he and his party depleted. In
it he adhcres to his prescription which he
may think to force down our throats al
this critical time. Something will bC

is no question about it, cost what it may

Facts That Are Ap parent.

There may he an honest difference of
opinion In this country respecting the
administration commission scheme
there are likely to he those with large
commercial interests at stake who thin k
the question al issue In Venezuela is not
one that calls for such radical action as
exposes them to the pcris of war; there
are a few who take exception to some of
the tcchncalitics Of the administration 5
position; there are many, who justly orit
else the President for rushing from one
extreme to another, realizing that there Is
weakness in both positions. But there
ought not to be an American knowing as
every intelligent person must, that Eng
land has step by step occupied more and
moro of territory formerly acknowledged
to DC Vcnezuclas, who would favor
a backdown by Uncle Sam. Injustice
has evidently been done in Venezuela and
the main principle for which our govern
ment contends is right. But while this,
all Americans and will be supported by
them to the bitter end, it is gratifying to
note the growing appreciation of the aw
full magnitude of war between the United
States and England. 1t would be the
greatest setback civilization has received
since the Dark Ages. Most great wars
have been to quite degree civilizing
agents. But a grapple to the finish be
tween the two most powerful and highest
evitably infliot almost irreparable damage
upon both. England should have no reason
for wishing to injure the United States,
mol, lean this country wish to destroy the
influence which England exerts through
out the world and which is good in the
main. With both weakened as they must
be after such duel, Russia would have
to be recognized as the most powerful
political government among the countries.
Such a result could not be to the advan-
tage of civilizing growth. The United
States has reason to be grateful to Russia
for past favors but our people are not pre-
pared to believe that the Slavonio races,
and government from the administra-
tion of which Tartar cruelty has not
yet been eliminated are fitted to assume
the position of the Anglo saxon race In
the van of progress.
1t is also gratifying to note that the
opinion is general both in this country
and abroad, that there Will tie no war
that somehow 1t will be averted. Or

If at the present timo we have not the
least intention of fighting, no matter what
the boundary lines of Venezuela may be,
to make these exaggerated pratensions and
at the same time inform the English peo-
pie that we do not propose to fight, is to act
in an insufferably silly manner and in a
way calculated to win for our diplomacy
the deserved contempt and ridicule Of the
world. We have. we confess a
better opinion of American character than
those entertain who state that war is i'm
possible, because we fear that many Ameri-
cans will prefer to fight rather than I'M
dergo the humiliation of backdown, a
fate which is certainly in store for our
country if we persist, in the absence OF
war in following the course we have

and the accompanying despatch from
Secretary Olney to Lord Salisbury, are
the most memorable documents that have
proceeded from an American executive
since the close of the Civil war. They
reflect the highest credit on the authors,
and they are worthy of the country. They
recognize the duty and announce the mis-
sion of the greatest of republics. They
reaffirm and emphasize the wise deliv-
erance of President Monroe, and they
rightly construe it as binding us, alike by
selfinteres st and honor, to defend the ter
ritorial integrity of every commonwealth
upon this continent
The commission of inquiry, recon-
mended by the President, should be forth
with sanctioned by Congress. The
British government having refused to
submit the whole of the Venezeula
boundary question to arbitration, it is in
| a high degree expedient that we should
ascertain in definite, official way,
whether there is so strong prima facie
case for the claim Of Venezuela as will
| justify us in the eyes of posterity, and of
| those European nations whose respect and
| friendship We desire, in taking a final
and decisive step, the consequences of
which none can fathom. Not
an hour should be lost in placing our
navy on the strongest possible footing
| through the swift completion of vessels
on the stocks, and through the purchase
of foreign ironclads. The extension and
| improvement of the Notifications of our
chief seaports ought to be pushed night
and day. The immediate adaptation of
our military organization to the require
ments Of sudden and considerable expan
sion will not of course be overlooked. OF
equal if not superior Importance is the
work that ought to be accomplished in
