The language Of diplomacy Is always
restrained, but while the words are
carefully chosen so as to avoid unneces-
sary offense, every phrase has a definite
meaning. When Lord Rosebery was
prime minister In England there were
signs that France had set her eyes upon
the equatorial provinces In Africa from
which the Egyptian garrlsons had been
withdrawn during the Soudan rebellion.
He authorized Sir Edward Grey to de-
clare, In 1895, that French advance to
the waters OF the Nile would be regard
ed by the British Government as IAN
unfrlendly act" In ordinary CONVEX
satiOn these three words would not be
emphasized by any stress Of voice, nor
would they ordinarily be accepted as a
warning. The man who protests in ad-
vance against an Invasion Of his rights
generally uses n stronger word than
"unfriendly." lie refers to II as a wan
ton outrage" or as a "hlgh-handed act
Of hostility" What diplomacy means
by IAN unfriendly act" Is an offense
committed by one Government against
another, which Involves immediate
risks of war. When Sir Edward Grey's
warning was unheeded, and the French
flag was raised on the Upper Nile at
Fashoda three years afterward, there
was grave situation. France had COM
mitted an offense against England. and
was confronted by demand that Mar
chand should retire from Fashoda. The
terms OF the demand implied forcible
action II Il was not compiled with Pres
ident Monroe, who was diplomatist
like his Secretary OF State. John Quincy
Adams, used the same word 'unfriend-
Is" In proclalmlng the famous doctrine
which bears his name. He declared that
any attempt on the part OF European
powers to interfere with or Cypress the
independent republics OF the American
continent, or 10 control their destiny.
could not be viewed Sin any other light
than as a manifestation OF an unfriend-
~ disposition toward the United States. :"
The phrase seems mild and lacking in
emphasis. AS dlplomatlsts have under
stood the words, Il has been strong and
definite The Monroe doctrine, with the
warning implied by the single word
"unfriendly," has sufiiced for seventy
five years 10 protect the Western Heml-

NEBRASKA.--Alwa in the front rank,
Nebraska was fairly represented at the
Wichita meeting of the congress, but as
this section of Texas claims among its
citizens great number of Nebraskans,
big delegation can be depended upon in
1900 at Houston. Those registering from
Nebraska were: w. F. Hayward, Chadrou;

UTAH.-Hon. John Henry Smith took
care of Utah in the convention and made
a good impression upon all the people he
met. Utah is a wonderful State. 1t has an
active working community and we hope
to see it more fully represented at the
meeting in 1900
WYOMING.-Ther was a very active
delegation from Wyoming and there is
special promise of big delegation to the
meeting next year in Houston. Mr.. ]. G.
Miller of Rollins w. H. Holiday. Lara
mie; C. G. Coutant Laramie, made up N
energetic trio, and didn't allow people to
forget that Wyoming was on the map.
OREGON.-Mr. G. NJ. Irwin came from
Salem and suggested to the convention
that 1t might be good idea for the Trans
mississippi commercial congress to meet
some time in the beautiful city of Port
land. We trust Oregon will send a good
strong delegation to Houston and capture
the next meeting of the congress.
