views on both sides that are not warranted
On one side is the statement reported, per-
maps incorrectly, to have been made by
secretary Olney TO the Russian minister
that the treaty amounts to an alliance with
england TO uphold the Monroe doctrine On
me other Is the view reported by our
washington correspondence yesterday that
! II binds the United States to submit the
question whether 1t is entitled to uphold
| Tue Monroe doctrine to the Judgment OF an
| arbitration tribunal
| Any support to either OF these views
Is entirely lacking in the text Of the
treaty. The fact is that the Monroe doc

zuelan treaty secured by the United States.

anu more could hardly be expected. That

the United States in UNFOLDING the prin
cipie against other powers there is no evil
dence whatever. Her commercial interests
ana sympathies might bring her to our
slde' but that Is entirely a matter for the
future.
On the other hand. the text OF the treaty
expressly negatives the idea that II can

the provision for arbitrating territorial

HUAyING
THE EATCHET.

THE RATCHET. great treaty Of
the West indicates
peace among the warning politicians. Ac-
cordng to the latest cabinet rlmors Sem
ator Sherman has consented TO take the
secretaryship of state, he has made up with
General Alger SO that the latter can also
come into tho cabinet. somebody has hvp-
Noticed Governor Bushnell so that he has
agreed to appoint Mark Hanna 10 succeed
sherman, Senator Foraker has promised to
be good, and everything is 10 be sweet and
lovely in Ohio politics hereafter.
pa you ever hear of such a flock Of
white winged doves of peace let loose at
one time before? 1t was only few months
ago that Senator Sherman "recollected"
some very ugly things about General Alger.
FOR fear he might forget them he set them
down in a book. In 1883 John Sherman OF
ohio and Russell a. Ager OF Michigan
were candidates for the presidency When
the convention met in Chicago the vcner-
able senator was dead sure that be had
safely corralled the votes of the colored
brethren from the South. But when the roll
was called the members from the black dis
tricts voted for Alger. Just how this light
nlng change was brought about senator
sherman perhaps has never found out hut
ne has his opinion. 1t grieved him very
much that the Michigan statesman should
poach on his preserves. The more he
thought about it the madder he grew, and
when the volume of his "Reconections'
appeared it showed that he could not vet
listen with complacency when the band
played "A New Coon in Town" But all
that is TO be forgotten and sherman and
Aiger are to stretch their legs under the
presidential mahogany under the sweet iu-
nuence of a reign of harmony
Even more surprising Is tho announce
ment that the fiery Hotspur Of Ohio, dash
ing Joe Foraker. has consented to plav
the role of lamb to Mark IIanna's lion. IL
is the general opinion in Ohio that at the
last shuttle OF the cards the Foraker forces
got good deal the best OF the deal Mr.
Foraker was elected senator. he selected
the governor. he retired a Mckinley State
in favor Of one OF his own
choosing and showed the boys that he knew
that he was something of n politician him
self. And now we are asked to believe that
he has consented to let bygones be bygones.
permit the leader of the opposing faction to
Ne selected United States senator. with all
he influence and power in State politics
which that implies. all for the sake of
sweet. blessed harmony.
These remarkable harmonious doings
nay all come to pass. but we shall see
