Mr. Bryan has nailed his flag to the

Now that the battle is over. the New

WHAT ENGLAND ACCEPTS

In recognizing the Monroe doctrine"
a. q fixed principle of international law
Is between the Latin American states
and the countries of Europe, the British
government takes a long step in the di-
rection of binding the English-speaking
people of the world in bond of friend
ship and mutual interest, which will ul-
timately result in an offensive and de-
fensive agreement to stand together
against plans for conquest of other ma
tions. 1t Is little curious that the So
called Monroe doctrine was formulated
by the British ministry and the United
States requested to adopt it as a prin-
ciple of government. and that subse-
quently England should have demurred
to its enforcement, but such is the fact.
The purpose of the Monroe doctrine as
interpreted by President Cleveland is
very much more far-reaching than was
ever contemplated by either England or
the United States when II was first pro-
mulgated. and it is in accepting Presi
dent Cleveland's range of its meaning
that Great Britain shows disposition
to bring the English-speaking countries
into a close alliance.
The doctrine of non-interference In the
affairs Of the American continent by for
eign powers Is called the Monroe doc
trine'' because President Monroe an
nounced it in a message to congress in
1923. In 1915 three nations. Russia, Aus
tria and Prussia formed league ostens-
IDLY to elevate humanity" on the lines
Of christianity" and it was called the
"holy alliance" but its real purpose was
to aid each other in fastening the yoke
Of despotism more firmly upon the necks
OF the people so as to prevent political
revolutions. Subsequently Spain Joined
the alliance and its purpose was very
much enlarged-even to the extent of
aiding one another in subjugating rebel
1ious colonies. England and France re-
fused to be parties to the compact, al
though warmly importuned to do SO. 1t
was at this juncture that Great Britain
saw that Spain had joined the alliance
to secure moral and physical help to
subjugate her old American colonies,
and the English cabinet set to work to
head off any and all extensions of Span
ish authority in the western world.
It was not until 1923 that Spain talked
seriously Of reclaiming her Latin
American possessions. but before she
could form plan Of operation England
had persuaded the United States to pro-
test against Spain and all other coun-
tries acquiring foothold in America by
conquest, and in December of that year
President Monroe declared it would be
dangerous to our peace and safety to
permit European powers "to extend
their system to any portion Of this hem
lDphere." But Mr.. Monroe's doctrine
did not intend to be understood as
meaning that a Latin-American state
could not. by the consent of its people,
Be sold to a foreign power, nor that a
foretgn power could not seize territory

not prevent the Totem drawing atten-

is not afraid of the truth, as evidenced
