Two Extremes.

No two gentlemen could present a
stronger intellectual contrast than SEN
ator Allen, Populist from Nebraska,
and Mr.. Godkin. editor of the New
York Evening Post Their mentalities
come into close conjunction, however,
in discussing the Monroe doctrine, upon
which they please to remain opposite
extremes, one of which is no whit less
ridiculous than the other Senator
Allen is, of the two, the more pardon
able, because he probably does not
know any better and is not expected to.
He declared, in speech in the senate,
that the Monroe doctrine could be APP
piled as reasonably to wrest Cuba from
Spanish rule as to prevent Venezuela
from being turned into a British crown
colony.
This, of course, implies that Mr.. Allen
is absolutely ignorant of the terms in
which the Monroe doctrine is stated
and has been recognized both at home
and abroad. 1t asserts only that this
country cannot view with Indifference
the extension by any European power
of its holdings or it's authority in this
hemisphere. AS to the situation al
ready existing. it makes no changes
and assumes no authority. The widest
and most vigorous assertion of the
Monroe doctrine could not by any pos
siblllty be made to cover an interfer-
ence with relations of political depen-
dence or authority that existed at the
time when it was proclaimed SO far
Mr.. Allen is wholly wrong and open to
correction.
The Evening Post is not satisfied to
correct him upon this point, however;
but, after setting him right, proceeds
to belabor the Monroe doctrine itself.
for which it seems to entertain a ne
culiar hatred. 1t cites the fact that
this doctrine was conceived and an
nounced in order to meet a state of
affairs brought about by the forma-
ton and designs of the Holy Alliance
That combine no longer existing. it as
sumes that the Monroe doctrine has
fallen equally into desuetude, and that
it could not be revived without a res
direction of the Holy Alliance. Here is
its closing assertion:
doctrine which has ceased to have anv
meaning is well fitted as Mr. Phelns said
10 mean everything; So, whenever sena-
TOR CT the United States finds himself with
much to say, but with ideas in his head
he has recourse to the Monroe doctrine'
Like an exhausted mine, it will always bear
"saltng.''
When the editor of the Post saws
that the Monroe doctrine "has ceased
TIC have any meaning" he is just as
guilty of folly or Misrepresentation as

was too dangerous a gas for common
use. Then came rumors that the gas
companies had taken alarm at this in
vasion of their field of profits, and had
formed combinations and bought up the
patent with which the discoverer had
speedily covered his invention. Since
then we have heard little of acetylene
in this country and had passed it up
as one of the unrealiZed dreams of bet
ter conditions. But we find in a
foreign trade publication a statement
that the Prussian railway officials, at
ter experimenting, have adopted acety-
lene, mixed with oil gas in the proper
ton of one to three, for illumination of
their trains, the safety of the mixture
having been absolutely assured 1t fur
Their informs us that the town of Tots
in Hungary, is lighted, both publicly
and privately, by acetylene and that
the users are satisfied with it, An eX-
hibitiOn of the new illumnant is now
in progress in Berlin under the auspices
of the German association for acety-
lene and calcium carbide, during which
congress of scientists and experts in
lighting industries will hold a session.
If acetylene can flourish over seas, why
not in the land of it's discovery?
