ABRAHAM LINCoLN's opinion of the
Monroe doctrine was clearly ex-
pressed to Gen. John M. Thayer, who
served under Grant at Vicksburg, says
the St. Louis Globe Democrat. After
the surrender of that stronghold, Gen.
Thayer visited Washington and asked
the presidents views concerning the
French invasion of Mexico. Mr..
Lincoln said: "My policy is to attend
to only one trouble at time. If we
get well out our of present difficulties
and restore the Union, l propose to
notify Louis Napoleon that it is about
time to take his army out of Mexico.
When the army is gone, the Mexicans
will take care of Macmillan. The
prophecy was fulfilled to the letter
Gen. Thayer states further that Presi'
dent Lincoln took occasion to say that
he was in full accord with Monroe's
celebrated message to congress.

ATTORNEY GENERAL CHILDs has
written an opinion regarding the re-
cent decision of the supreme court in
the matter of members of the legis-
lature holding appointive state Of
fees. His view gives a most sweep
ing version of the matter, and holds
that it covers all cases wherein mem
bers of the legislature are appointed
to any position created by the state,
and will effect all members who have
been appointed on state boards, also
municipal officers, notary public, or
any subordinate in any department
with fixed term and salary attached.
This view, as we have said, makes
the decision most sweeping one, and
will render it one of the greatest
purifiers ever introduced into the
politics of Minnesota.

GROVER DISSATISFIED.

The administration is not pleased
with the legislation which the house
is pushing forward, and it is said the
president will send another message
to congress on financial matters.
Secretary Carlisle has written letter
to chairman Dingley, of the ways and
means committee, which has not been
made public, but it is reported that
the secretary asked for gold bond,
and his opinion as well as that of the
president is that the present bill, if
enacted into law, will do little good.
There are two reasons why the ad-
ministration does not fancy the house
bond bill. First, it provides for coin

1t has gotten down to business in
fine shape and has passed bill to

The recent assignment of the house

The recent assignment of the house
committees again emphasizes the i'm
portance of keeping a good man in
congress when once you get him
there. Minnesota was most hand
somely treated under the circumstan-
ces, but she got no chairmanships.
Those go to the older members, and it
is doubtless correct that they should.
Minnesota has a strong delegation in
the present house, capable of doing
good work, and if the practice of
keeping them there so long as they do
good, faithful work, were adopted,
the state would soon be at the front
in the matter of influence in that
body.

SPEAKING of the Venezuelan ques-

says: ''The truth is that England

cover the territory thus found to be
valuable. In other words, the ques-
tion is simply one of characteristic
and Unsuitable greed so far as she is
concerned"
