THE PURCHASE OF CUBA.
Gov. ThOrntOn's Views on the Monroe
Doctrine as Expressed to a
st. Louis Paper.

In response to this inquiry from the
st. Louis Republic:
"Would you regard the purchase of
Cuba by England an occasion for the as
sertion of the Monroe doctrine? What is
the militia force of your state, armed and
drilled, and how quickly could it be
mobilized?"
Gov. Thornton sent the following re-
ply which appears, among the opinions
of other governors, in the Republic of
Tuesday last:
To Charles W. Knapp, Editor of the Republic.
Santa Fe, N. NJ, Jan. 20.-The Monroe
doctrine, az understand it, is declara-
tion of principle upon the part of the
United States that any effort of any
European nation to extend the mon
archical form of government to any por-
ton of the American continent where it
does not exist or to acquire any terri
tory upon this continent would be con.
sidered as an unfriendly act, the conten-
tion being that the extension of the mon
archical power upon the American conti-
nent was menace to the existing form
of free and popular government. l can
not see that it makes any difference
whether the extension of such form of
government be by purchase or by force
of arms. The result in either case would
be the same. / therefore consider that
the purchase Of Cuba by England would
be cause for the assertion of the Mon
roe doctrine. 1t would certainly be a

COMING AROUND TO II.

About February l, the treasury depart
ment will resume the coinage of silver
dollars and continue until about S18,OOO,-
600 has been coined. When the present
administration came into power there
were in the treasury about $29,000,000
silver dollars coined from bullion under
the act of 1890 and available for the re-
demption of treasury notes issued in pay
ment of bullion purchased. Since Au-
gust, 1898, about $18,000,000 Of these
notes have been redeemed in silver dol
lars and cancelled.
THE SALE OF CUBA.
1t is again declare here that the
administration took occasion few days
since to make certain representations to
Spain with respect to the early settle
ment of the Cuban war. 1t is said this
action was taken upon the government
ascertaiLing that Spain desired to sell
Cuba. There are good reasons for be-
lleving that the Spanish government has
offered to dispose of Cuba to a syndicate,
composed of British and German capital
lists, principally the former, and the Brit
ish members of the syndicate have laid
the matter before Lord Salisbury. The
premier, it is declared, is now consider
ing the whole Cuban question with a view
to future action in regard to the sYndi-
cate scheme.

KRUEG ER'S ASSURANCES.
The President of Transyaal Republic
Wires that Americans will Re
e Justly Treated

San Francisco, Jan. 23.-The Examiner
has received the following telegram from
President Krueger, of Transvaal;
"Everything is quiet. Americans are
in no danger whatever. They enjoy the
full protection of the law like any other
foreigner. Therefore, there is no need
OF protection from the outside against
any illegal or revolutionary movements,
even if such protection against revolu-
tionists were necessary, which are not so.
Americans are capable of taking care of
themselves. The government regrets
deeply that, whilst almost all of the
Americans took the side of law and order,
very few of them joined the revolution
ary, so-called reform committee. These,
together with the majority, mostly Brit
ish, will be tried according to law, and
justice will be accorded to all without re-
spect to nationality"

violation of that oft repeated doctrine of
the European nations which justifies a
resort to force to prevent the destruction
of the balance of power. Cuba, owned
by Spain, is no menace to this govern
ment, but when owned by England,
which now controls Canada upon our i'm
mediate north and large possessions to
the south of the United States, estimated
to be at least one-third of North and
South America, the case is different. She
is already formidable and dangerous
rival. With Cuba added to her posses
sions, the Gordon that encircles US would
be com plete ana it would stand as con-
tinual menace to our field. Under the
circumstances, the purchase should be
treated as a declaration OF war and met
with the full force of our government.

panies-tive of cavalry and four of in

Speaker Reed, is up for reelection. He
