chase of Cuba by England an
occasion for the assertion of

ABOUT THE COMMISSION

Special to THE HERALD.
London, Jan. 21.-The Globe

the United States-Venezuelan
commission to the governments
of Great Britain and Venezuela
to submit to them all evidence
in their possession and says:
"Great Britain will never allow
this monslrous claim TO deter
mine the territory of a British
colony within its jurisdiction.
No power could admit itexLept

astrous war. Were such a de-
mand made by any other pow

IT Is not probable that Great

NEW CUBAN PROGRAM

Special to THE HERALD.
New York, Jan. 2t.-The
alleged program of Gen. Wey-
Ter, the new governor general
of Cuba, has been cablcd from
Berlin. ! he main points are
that he will be an opportunist,
be viii answer war with war,
toward rebel speech and rebel
sympathiZers he will be mex
orable, but lenient towards
those surrendering arms: he
will endeavor Ito establish a
blockade to prevent the land
ing of arms and ammunition
from the United States; and he
will not be sanguinary, but
will deal justly. lie says that
two months ago it would have
been easy to sUffocate the rebel
lion, but now it will not be so
easy, on account of its spread.

THE next state democratic
platform should contain a
clause favoring the adoption of
the Torrens system of land
transfers OF some practical
modification of it. A law which
will assure valid land titles,
and simplify and cheaper the
process of transferring lands
as this system must do, will
add much to the attractions
which Texas already has for
home-seekers.

SIGNIFICANT EXCITEMENT
Over the Davis Monroe Resolu

Pressed.
Special to Tnn HERALD.

Special to The HERALD.
Washington, D. c., Jan. 90.
There is a great deal of quiet
but no less significant excite
ment in public circles at Wash
ington concerning the possible
effect of the report by the sen
ate committee on foreign rela-
tions of Senator Davis resolu
ton reaffirming and repro
nouncing the Monroe doctrine.
While the sentiment of con-
gress and doubtless that of the
country at large endorses the
Monroe doctrine, yet the ones
ton is presented and will he
contended for vigorously that
the Venezuelan boundary dis
pute and episode are not Of
that character and nature TO
place them on ''all tours" with
the proper Interpretation and
application of the Monroe doc
trine.
While the Venezuelan com
mission recently appointed is
not directly charged with the
duty of pronouncing upon the
application of the Monroe doc.
trine, yet in the very nature of
things and in consideration of
the eminent character of its
members, judicially and other
wise, it is quite likely to play
very important part in deter
mining whether our own gov
eminent is properly hedged by
fact and law in asserting that
doctrine as applied to the Ven
ezuelan boundary dispute.
Nothing definite,can of course
be reached in the way of con-
clusion until the commission
shall have investigated and re-
ported upon the matters com
mitted to its charge. Senators
representing the commercial
cities and money centers of the
east are warned by their con-
stituents to be cautions and
avoid precipitation, while those
representing western and south
ern communities are pressed to
stand fast and firm by the
Monroe doctrine, come what
may.
The attitude of the president
on this question is a matter
which evokes wide speculation
and it is no longer certain that
Secretary Olney is disposed to

Mr.. Cleveland's message. 1t is

Not Ready to Vote.

The forthcoming presidential campaign
is to be one with void There is to be
no woman candidate. This will probably
be regretted by those who remember with
what suavity and eminent success a for
mer presidential campaign was chaper-
oned by Mrs. Belva A. Lockwood. That
there will be no woman candidate is as
serted upon the authority of Mrs. Eliza
beth Cady Stanton and Mrs. Lille Dever-
eauX Blake: and they are the foremost
woman politicians in the country. Indeed
it appears that, so far from putting up
candidate, the suffragists are going to do
very little campaign work. They have
gained three states in which women are
on an equality with men in politics-Wyo-
ming, Colorado and Utah-but they have
reached a point at which it seems to be
necessary to reconstruct their plans of
campaign. Mrs. Stanton has concluded
that to push work along the old lines
would not be WELL for the reason, as she
says, that the women are not yet ready
for the ballot. and must be educated up
TO voting. This is of course applicable only
to the rank and file of the prospective vot-
ers; the leaders who are conducting the
campaign for equal rights are qualified
for anything.
AS strange as it may seem, Mrs. STAN
ton attributes the average woman's un-
fitness for the ballot to 1.-THE religious ele-
ment in her nature which she says is
perverted, and lis the greatest block to
advancing civilization" Because woman
is intensely religious, often to the point
of what Mrs. Stanton calls 'fanaticism,"
she says the men are afraid to put them
in office or to give them the ballot. The
plan of campaign of the suffragists here
after will have to do with the getting of
the woman out from under the thumb of
the churches. This is to be accomplished
by demanding that the churches admit
women to their councils and to their pull
pits on an equal footing with men. Wo-
men. according to Mrs. Stanton. have en-
joyed greater relative rights and privi-
leges at the hands of the state for fifty
years than they enjoy from the churches
al present. As an instance illustrating how
women are dominated by religious sentl-
ments IN matters OF great public concern
Mrs. stanton recalls that many thousands
Of them tried TO close the Chicago expo
sition on Sundays, the effect OF which
would have been 20 deprive thousands OF
