THE MONROE DOCTRINE.

There are numerous interpretations Of
the meaning Of the Monroe Doctrine,
the only exclusive and prominent policy
that the United States has been able
to force international recognition, as
law which must be observed. Senator
Allen of Nebraska, the other day ap-
pealed for interference in the affairs Of
Cuba under the principles of the Mon
roe Doctrine and Of humanity" Presi-
dent Cleveland appealed to that same
Monroe octrine in the Venezuela cpl
sode, but Cleveland later consented
that should Venezuela for a considera-
ton, satisfactory to herself, release a
part of British Guiana to England, that
it would be none Of our business. But
1t would. Under such a rule Great
Britain might acquire the whole Of
South America and the West India Is
lands. The Monroe Doctrine means
that no foreign potentates or allied
powers shall by any method whatever
extend their system to any part of the
Western Hemisphere. Now, where
Spain has in any way infringed on the
Monroe Doctrine in her attempt to
crush a rebellion in Cuba, we cannot
see. Neither does Senator Allen or any,
body else see. Spain owned Cuba a
hundred years before the settlement of
jamestown, Virginia, and fully three
centuries before the United States be-
came an independent nation. It is no
for Great Britain to own Canada. But
the sending of MAMMALIAN to Mexico
by Napoleon was an infringement. 1t
was all right for Mr.. Allen to make his
Cuban appeal in the name of humanity,

THE SECOND DISTRICT.

There is going to be lively congress
sional convention in the second district.
There is Gates, Bowersock, Buchan.
Cubbison and we don't know how many
more statesmen who are casting off for
the race. The Lawrence Journal, in
announcing Mr.. Bowersock's candidacy
says of the Wyandotte situation that
Mr.. Buchan and Mr.. Cubbison are in
the race, and the agreement has been
made between them and their friends
that whichever one gets the majority
of the primary votes shall be supported
in the congressional convention. This
is a hopeful sign. If the Republicans
of Wyandotte stand by that agreement
a condition Of affairs must naturally
arise that will be of great benefit to
the party. The strife in Wyandotte
among the Republicans has not only
been a disgrace to the Republican party
of the state, but it has done great harm
to the party as well. With Bourbon and
Wyandotte both in line, with harmony
in the ranks and with no bitterness en-
gendered the Republicans of the Sec
ond district will be able to turn down
any man the opposition may name.

THE MOTHFR-LOVE.

That the mother-love is stronger in
the man than in the woman, there is
no doubt Life abounds with every day
proof of the fact. The boy loves his
mother with persistent trust to which
the girl is a stranger. She is his all
desire to love and mate. But the
mate-love never supercedes the divine
clinging to her who bore him. How
ever great or strong the man when
overtaken by disaster he instinctivelv
turns to his mother. Men far away
from friends and home find their minds
turning in the hour of distress to her
whose arms held them in their infancy.
The more impending the peril the SWIFT
er and surer the instructive thought OF
mother and mothers home. The
thoughts that fash through the mind
of man falling through space to what
he believes TO be certain death, are very
like what men have said passed before
their mental vision while struggling
against death from drowning. A ST
Louis lad fell ninety feet down an ele-
vator shaft and escaped death. In de-
Ecribing his thoughts, he said that his
mind was occupied with various things
but that his mother was there all the
time. He thought the journey through
space would never end, and he grew SO
anxious to strike the bottom that he
had time TO wish for it more than once
or twice. He had no recollection of
crying out of reaching for something
to catch hold Of whether he went feet
nr head first, or whether or not he turn
ed over. He thought Of how mangled
and crushed his body would look. how
his mother would grieve and how the
bruised and bloody corpse would shock
her. Then he wondered what his en-
pioyer would say. who would get his
sob and il his successor had a mother
TO love him as he had. and II he would
be killed and cause his mother sorrow.
Then he struck a vessel filed with wa
ter and was saved. The ruling passion
OF this boys life is love Of mother.

feet that the report of Superintendent
of the State Banking Department Fred
erick D. KiIburn, on the operations Of
the building and loan associations ii
| the state last year, will be transmitted
| to the legislature tomorrow. There are
| $40 of these corporations operating in
| the state, both locals" and nation
ais" The operations of the former are
restricted TO limited territory, but the
operations of the nationals are not
limited.
These corporations have total assets
Of SCI, 5S4, 719, Of which s48019,640 is
loaned on bond and mortgage. The re-
ceipts last year were S33, 99S, 88S, of
which s13,375 1898 was received as sub
scriptions from members. Last year
SO, 863, 762 was lent on mortgage and
81, 592, 685 were paid on Withdrawals,
dues and profits. Mr.. Kilburn severely
criticises the operations of the nation
aT' associations. He says:
"Some of these associations have
been conducted solely in the interest of
the managing officers, whose operations
have been little short Of Iegalized rob-
berry"
Superintendent Kilburn recommends
that the state statutory revision COM
mission be directed to revise and cod
fly the laws governing the operation of
building and loan associations, and
says:
Such law should provide some rea-
sonable limit as to the territory within
which such associations should be al
lowed to invest the money of their
shareholders, and should restrict loans
upon real estate to first mortgage Sc
curities. It should limit the amount
that may be used for operating ex-
penses, and if the practice Of making
expense fund deductions from the CAPT.
tai paid in by stockholders is to con-
tinue, it should prohibit the practice of
free withdrawals in any form.
'It should require the officers of such
associations to apportion and credit
profits either annually or seni-annually
carrying a percentage of the net profits
to a contingent fund to meet possible
losses. 1t should define the circum-
stances under which the superintendent
of banks should be allowed to intervene
and close such associations, including
therein definition of the term insolv-
ency or impairment of capital as ap-
piled to them. If any better or more
appropriate provision for the dissolu-
ton Of an association with impaired
capital can be devised than the ap-
pointment Of a receiver, it should be
Incorporated in the law"

The United States and Great Britain will
