ANOTHER RESOLUTION.

Senator seweil Thinks the President II
Wrong on tile venezweihn Question.
WASHINGTON, Jan, /: Senator Sew
ell of New Jersey yesterday introduced
a resolution declaring the policy of the
United States on the Monroe doctrine as
follows:
RESOLVED, That tho Monroe doctrine, as
originally propoundea, was directed TO the
especial prevention Of threatened action Of
The allied powers In reference to the reyolted
colonies of Spain and TO the occupation ,y
way of colonization of any supposed derolict
territory on this hemisphere
Second-Thnt the question of resisting any
acquisition of territory by conquest was linn
itci, as stated by Mr. Webster, to cases In
which, by reason of proximity, snch acquisi-
tion would be dangerous TO our safety and the
integrity OF our institutions.
Third--That the truo ground upon which
the Monroe announcement was based and
upon which any similar position has been
taken rests for its justification upon whnt
may bo our interests and our interestr only
and that neither by the Monroe doctrine nor
any official declaration have we ever come un-
der any pledge to any power or state on this
continent that binds US to act merely for their
protection against invasion or encroHchment
by any other power.
Fourth-That when care crises in which
n European power proposes TO acquire terri
tory by invasion or for CONQUEST, IL is thun for
us to determine whether our safety and In
tegrity demands that we shall resist such nc
tion by armed force IL necessary
Fifth-That the executive has pressed tho
Monroe doctrine beyond what wns contem-
plated at the time of its announcement, and
that tho resultant sequence of the position
thus taken seems to be commital of this gov.
ernment to n protectorato over Mexico and
tho Central and South American states: that
this would be most unwisc and dangerous ard
would violate the sound and well established
policy that we should avoid all entangling al
liances with foreign powers, whether they be
European American.
Sixth-That this action was premature, look
ing to the history of the controversy, and in
opportune in view of tho business and hnan-
cal condition of the country.
Seventh-That neither congress nor the
country can be, nor has been, committed by
the action or position of the executive depart
ment in reference % the Venezuelan boun-
Diary controversy as to the course to be pur-
sued when the time shall have arrived for
final determination. 1t will then be our prov
ince 10 adopt such line of policy and to take
such action rs may be then demanded by our
sense OF duty to the country and by n true re-
gard for its honor and dignity, the welfare
and safety of our people and the integrity OF
our institutions.

devoured by wild beasts.

hut Did Nor Explain.
NEW HAVEN, Jan 16.-Professor Ar
thur M. Wheeler of Yale college deliv-
cred a remarkable lecture upon the Mon
roe doctrine. He said the Monroe doc
trine was divided into two parts, the
first enunciated by President Monroe,
and bogus doctrine developed and per-
fected by President Cleveland.
Continuing he said "It is the embod-
iment of insatiate greed, inordinate self
ishness and colossal bumptiousness of a
large part Of the American people"
He described Henry Clay as being a
man of the foregoing characteristics,
and said: "He talked Ike an an
gel and acted like buccaneer with
hemorrhages of elequence."
Professor Wheeler said further
"Spaiu, through the special dispensa-
ton of Pope Alexander, the vicegerent
of the Almighty, became the possessor
of the destinies of three-fourths of the
world. | don't know that we have a
patent from the Almighty unless it came
lately through Pope Grover l."
He declared that the act of President
Cleveland in shaking his fist under
Queen Victoria's nose was the "act of n
bully" and said that America need have
no apprehensions of trouble through
contact with England.

TWO IMPORTANT CASES.
They Involve the Right of States to Tax
Corporations.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE United
States supreme court listened to argu-
ments III two important cases involving
the right of state authorities to tax cor
porations. One of these was the case of
the State of California versus the South
ern Pacific and Central Pacific railroads.
These roads resisted the tax levy ON the
ground that the assessment was made
against its federal franchise. The other
case involves the right of the state and
county authorities of Indiana to tax the
lines of the Western Union Telegraph
company i'll that state on the basis of
the value of the lines of the Western
Union as an entirety. The decision in
the state courts was favorable to the
state in 10th instances.

IN OUR puOllShinS the com mis-
sioner's report, the printer signed
the examiners part Of the report
with the name W. f. Bowen which
should have been w. NJ. Bowen. II
was not our hon0rrd Mayor who
was one Of the examiners, but his
father, the old Democratic wheel
horse WIN. NJ. Bowen to whom it
was entrusted by the court Of eX-
amining the yearly report, vouch-
ers, etc. The examiners remarks
are extended and important. 1t is
important to the people that "de-
tailed" report Of the receipts and
expenditures of the funds of the
county is published. 1t Is the pub
lie money, belongs to the public
and tile public have n right in
equity and in law to know where
every cent Of it is expended. You
can not say in II report, "John ia
eobs, sundries, Sl2j co." How do
the public who had the "detailed'
law passed for their benefit know
what is included in "sundries" or
whether the prices paid were high
or low, or whether economy was
exercised by their agents, the com.
missiOners or not. The objection
heretofore in making such detailed
reports was :he enormous expense
for publication, and the objection
was we'll founded under the old
Hooking system of setting type,
and printers measuring rule. The
last report was acknow edged to he
one Of the largest Of late years, and
instead Of ii being set do1ble lined
as heretofore, making it measure
300 or 400 dollars, we set it solid
according TO law, and it but reach
es 100 dollars. We think we are
safe in saying that detailed re-
port could be made, and published
according to law, end with much
more satisfaction to the tax payer
whose money is being spent, con
fined to q or columns of type, for
not more than $50 dollars. We
have heard many tax payers on
reading the late report say that it
is very little satisfaction to read
about the eXpen ling Of large sums
of money, and know no more about
what it was spent for at the finish
than when they begun. The sug-
gesti0ns of examiners VIM. M.
Bowen and +. S. Pursell are well
founded, and should be inquired
into by the new commissioners. 1t
has been "A fallacy, not a policy Of
the printers of Hooking eietofore,
putting in bills outrageously high,
expecting to have them cut down
to about the right figure, and they
were usually accommodated to the
cut by the commissioners who
knew the bills were too high. This
system Of printing and bills is
thing Of the past in this county.
We propose TO publish tina. which
is kindly given 10 us, strictly ac-
cording TO law, and the bills will he
put In on the same basis. This is
fair and honest and we know that
no official will think o herwise. We
are with the mmissioners in their
carefulness in endeavoring to save
the county every cent that they
can. Every bill that comes before
them should be thoroughly invest
gated before allowed, and II the
printers bill, or mechanics bill or
salary bills are not right, according
to law and equity, then II is their
iuty to cut them down to what Is
light. They should deal with the
Jublic money even more carefully
han they would with their own. !
