The text of the resolutions n the Senate
affirming the Monroe doctrine shows
them to have been drawn on broad lines
conservatively and with evident intent
not to give offence. There is of course
some weight in the arguments against
adopting these resolutions at this time
and yet it Is these arguments which are
the strongest evidence of the need Of some
such resolutions. So many different
views have been put forward by those
who wished to avoid the responsibility
attaching to the position assumed by the
President, or were affected by other
motives, that there is need of some act on
the part of Congress defining the position
OF this nation respecting the present APP
plication of the principles laid down in
what is Familiarity known as the Monroe
doctrine. 1t is very evident to ALL or
ought to he, that this country has no
notion of abandoning what is generally
known rs the Monroe doctrine This too,
Notwithstanding that Lord Salisbury
attempted to discredit it and to give lis
definition of it, such as he thought might
best serve bis interests. If Congress
passes resolutions defining the position
OF the country on the question there will
be little opportunity in the future for
aggressive foreign diplomats to construe
them as they may happen mt the time to
desire ard a vast amount of irresponsible
opinion for and against will not be forced
