TRIBUN ETS.

In the old days of the bitter fights between
the Cross and the Crescent was born the saying
that There is no Turk like renegade" Nor
is there any such an abjectly devout Eng lishman
toadying American. Last week n crowd
of these emaseulated beings celebrated with
much ostentatious sorrow, at the Episcopal
Church of St. Mary the Virgin, New York. the
anniversary of that blessed martyr and saint,
King Charles L." who was justly beheaded
Jan. 80, 16l9. In addition to being bitter
enemy Of popular rights in every form. Charles
I. was notorious liar, faith breaker. and
traitor to his country. The headsman's ak
pever fell more properly than upon his worse
than worthless neck. There are very few
EneIishmen now, no matter of what party, but
freely admit this. His sineerest lamenters
are these degenerate Americans. Probably the
ed itors of the New York 7iRes and Evening Post
were among the mourners.
Richmond, Va. is enjoying an anti-dog cru
SADIE. Or, rather, it is doing the necessary
amount of talking to work the people up to
making such crusade. 1t is claimed that
there are 6,OOOdogs in the city, which everybody
admits is more than 1000 too many But who

which should be removed? There's the rub.
If the crusade is once started. and it ought to
start at once, it should not be confined to Rich
mond, by any means, but extend through the
whole State of Virginia. haven't the figures
at hand, but / should say from casual inspec-
ton that there are at least 100000 lean,
NANCY, egg sucking, sheep-kiiling dogs which
should be made into compost TO fertilize the
lean fields of the State. There is no worse dog
ridden section of the country than Virginia.
The poorer and meaner q man is, and the
poorer and meaner the ground on which he
lives, the more dogs he has.

SENATOR TrLLMAN brought out that
much-talked-of pitch-fork last week,
and made most unseemly exhibition
Of it in the Senate. His speech was
merely coarse, vulgar TRADE against
President Cleveland and Secretary
Carlisle, unrelieved by the least wit,
argument, logic or presentation of facts
1t was such stream of abuse as might
be expected and tolerated at a bar
room or crossroads gathering, but
which, fortunately, has never before
been inflicted upon the Senate. 1t
simply showed that Tillman has a bad
tongue in his head, and no perception of
the proprieties of his position. Senator
ingalls,, for example, would have said
things hundred times more hurtful.
because he would have used rapier or
razor where Tillman welded fence
rail. What Ingalls, said would have
cleaned with wit, irony and facts. Till
man simply" called names"
The National tribune. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1877-1917, 1896-02-06

LORD SALISBURY made most aston
ishing speech last week. Referring to
the Turkish question he said that Eng
land has never intended to actually in
terfere by force of arms, but had intend
ed to confine herself to moral suasion.
This was painful surprise to all, and to
many it did not seem possibly true.
With reference to Venezuela he said
that he had always believed in the
Monroe Doctrine, as President Monroe
had propounded it," but did not think
it applicable to the Venezuelan dispute.
The question Immediately arises as to
who it to judge whether the Doctrine is
applicable or not? As the Doctrine is
part of the policy of the United States,
it would naturally seem that only the
United States can decide when and
where it is applicable. That is some
thing that, in every instance, we must
determine for ourselves. Certainly, we
can not expect England. France, Spain
or Germany to ask us to apply it
against them. The South American
countries may ask us to apply it for
their protection, but in every case
we must be the sole judges of its
applicability, and the method of apply
ing it.
