TIE comment of the German press on the fact that England has yielded 10 the United States in the Venezuela matter and accepted the Monroe doctrine is suggestive of a possible refusal on the part of Germany to acquiesce ID that doctrine if a similar dispute should arise involving German claims. Americans might well reply with the suggestion that if Germany does not like the Mon roe doctrine it might be well for it to undertake it's overthrow. We are in. clined to think that the conclusion of such an attempt would see the German press in a more compliant mood than it is now. But Germany is by DO means as belligerent toward the United States as these prees comments indicate. Be- tween the lines one may read Go ndemns- ton of England rather than defiance to the United States. German newspapers are willing juet now to make almost any thing an excuse for an attack upon Great Britain. Nothing would please them better than to belittle England in the eyes of Europe, and its submission to the United States in the Venezuels dispute seems to present an opportunity of that sort.

THE construction of B gigantic system of railroads in China will soon be begur. It will be the effect of two influences working upon the Chinese government and arousing some of the leading men of that nation to a sense of the need of many changes and improvements. The victory of the Japanese is one and the tour of Li Hung Chang arouod the world is the other. The Japanese victory aroused China to a ssnse of the need of radical reforms. The visit of Li Hurg Chsrg to the western world taught him that there is much ID western civiliza- ton which China could well afford to adopt. It is probable that, uotxithstsud- ing his stay ID the United States wes short, bis impressions of this country were vivid. Undoubtedly he wse greatly pleased with American railways, and 1t is probable that American engineers ai q contractors will be favorsbly considered q in connection with the construction of the Chinese system whenever work up- ca 1t is formally begun.

Godey's For De cem ber.

Godey's Magazine fer December has an especial Christmas time flavor. The fron.ispiece is reprod uction of tt @ splendid painting of Gherardo de ls Notte, "The ..ooration of tne Shep- herds," picture never before given in an American magazine. Following this is un illustrated seriee, "Tbe First Christmas" by c. F. Lester, who builds bis pictures upon the text of the Script. ures. And there were in the came coup- try shepherds abiding in the field, keep- ing watch over their tiocksby night, etc" a notle theme to which the artist hae added ths charm of bis art with fine effect. To tboee who dwell upon the coming of the Christmastide with rever- epce these pictures will appeal very strongly. They certainly compcee a fine collection, and are worthy to be preserved.

Nor little interest ie being taken in the coming city election. It IS well. The advantages of good government can only be obtained by the selection of the best officers, and it is duty everyone owes himself to exercise his best energy and judgment in tine selection. As everybody is interested and as the rights of all citizens are equal in such matters, 1t is hardly possible that the public generally will suffer few Rmbi- tious political manipuIators to control everything. The thirst for public of- flee is so uncomfortable in a numbe of men in every community that they make 8 hard, study of schemes for their own qualification, regardless of the rights of others and their own duty as good citi- zens. This class of political vampires should be taught wholesome lesson.

If they did why might not Maceo's followers do the same for Weyler?

THE London Spectator takes a pec

THE London Spectator takes a pecu. liar view of the position assumed by the United States and the consequences which may flow from the protection which this country declares it will ex- tend to other American nations. Tbe Spectator thinks that in the oouree of from thirty to fifty yesrs Europe, driven by hunger, will endeavor to take possee sion of the countries of South America It is strange that it lost sight of the very evident fact that the hungry peo- pie of Europe would not wait for the ac> tion of their governments. They would as emigrarts remove to South America if it became evident that by doinR so they could improve their condition. Hav.rg dona that, they would be pre- pared in common with other Soutb Americaus to resist toe predicted Euro pesn invasion. In fifty years South America will not need the help of the United States to repel an invasion from Europe.

The former practice of the Spanish authorities of shooting prisoners in Moro castle and throwing the bodies into the water be- meath ss food for sharks hes been stop- ned becsuse. not long ago several bodies drifted into the bay of Havana.
