Doctrine Of iIeipfulnes..

It has been said that if we "a over there

will imply TIE right for other nations to
Interfere with affairs On this continent,
and so the Monroe doctrine lie icopardizcd.
No. no! President Cleveland expressed
the sentiment Of every intelligent and pa
trio;ic American when he Numbered from
the White House "a warning To all nations
that there IS not one acre or one inch moro
of ground on this continent for any trans
atlantic government to occupy. And by
that doctrine we stand now and shall for
ever stand.
But there is q doctrine rs much higher
than the Monroe doctrine MS tho heavens
are higher than The earth and that Is tho
doctrine Of humanitarianism and sympa-

The eastern en-. of the waters Of
southern Europe and the western
end are held by nations Of whom
it would be a misnomer to call
them civilized. Turkey and Spain
are not entitled to consideration as
civilized countries. 1t is the duty
Of enlightened governments to put
a quietus upon their bloodthirsti'
ness in other lands. II they want
to bite and devour each other al
home and rid the world of the

That report in which Consul
Lee is to bring to Cleveland's dis
believing eyes and ears the true
condition Of affaire in Cuba, is
trou bling the Cuban taskmasters
no little. 1t is said that if it is in.
imical to Spain Lee will find it
mighty unpleasant for him in
Cuba, and that it will be is certain,
if Lee tells the facts. 1t is said
that his report will show that the
Spanish have no conception OF
civilized warfare, and that their
treatment OF the Cubans, men,
women and children, is something
to American conception simply
horrible. When Cleveland feels
a conviction OF the truth of this
representation creeping through
his hair little too strongly for
comiort,h can drop line in good
fishing waters and restore his
equilibrium.

The restoration OF bounty upon
sugar, pledged by the republicans,
following hard upon the heels
of that Supreme court decision,
that the planters must be paid
their bounty, will go a long way to
make Louisiana sugar men see

served, and by what political party
the agreements made by them are
likely to be carried out. 1t looks

In two short weeks the demo-
Gratis at Chicago will be going
through the motions. That there
will be no action taken there to
put Teller at the head OF the silver
hosts may be accepted. That
democratic convention will make
other declarations than those on
the silver question. 1t is not prob
able that these will suit Teller any
better than Teller will suit the
democrats whom he has been fight
ing for thirty years. There are
out and out democrats enough who
will fight for the leadership upon
l6 to l platform and rank out
slider will not be in it. That nomi-
nation will be eagerly sought by
Bland and Campbell and Boies
and other free silver democrats
who are entitled by democratic
service to recognition by the party.
The convention of populists at st.
Louis, two weeks after the Chicago
gathering, may take up Teller, or
they may endorse the free silver
nomination at Chicago. Whitney
and Cleveland and Russell and
those Of that stamp profess to
think that no free silver platform
will be enunciated at Chicago.
Should this prove TO be the case
and all calculations to that effect
prove fallacious, then a new deal
all round may be looked for. 1t
will not be possible to line up the
forces intelligently until after the
Chicago meeting. For that the
democrats wait, trembling in their
boots.
