The Republican Campaign.

The records of the Republican State
Convention at Saratoga, official and
non-oflicial. prior to the adoption of the
platform should be wiped of the slate.
They revealed, on the part of various
gentlemen engaged in the proceedings,
some extremely unlovely Characteris-
ties, unnecessary here now - condemn
or even to describe. Suffice i 70 say
that the one gentleman who cmcrges
with credit unimpared was the one who
was not nominated for Lieutenant Gov
crnor-Mr. George K. SHELDON.
Mr.. FRANCIS ". HIGGINs. who was
nominated in Mr. SHELDON'S place is
one of the most noted and respected Re-
pubicane in the public life of New York
State. There j. no worthier candidate
in his pa",y'S circle The friends of
Governor OpElL invite a review of his
administration at the polls, with every
show of confidence that it will receive
emphatic public approval. But the his
tory Of the convention, Whatever II was,
or the personality of tine leading nom-
nees could be properly brushed aside
IL nnimportant when placed by the side
of this plain statement of fact which con-
sttutes the platforms leading plank:
The greatest national issue Is the maintenance
OF prospcrt'."
That is the one thing which the mem
ber Of the Republican party and parti-
sans of other stripes able to understand
The intimate relation in the public mind.
and hence in the business world, be-
tween the nations immense industrial
activity and th" Republican political re-
gime will keep in mind from now until
election day. II is the one thing that in
reason ought To bc kept in mind, and it
should produce u vast majority of votes

candidates, ODELL and HIGGINS

ton that not England but only the
Powers which at the time we're embraced
in the so-called Holy Alliance we're con-
templated in the enunciation OF the
Monroe Doctrine. Ii is not true, as
some British critics Of their action al
legged that President CLEVELAND and
Secretary OLNEY, by the position which
they took with reference to Venezuela,
gave to that doctrine a material and
unwarranted extension. They did but
point out what is self-evident, that an
American republic would be oppressed
and its destiny sensibly affected it.,
under color Of boundary controversy,
and under the preposterous claim of
right to be sole Judge Of its own case, a
European Power should seize and hold
by force a part Of that republics terri
tory. The Interpretation put upon the
words which we have quoted by our
State Department in lSo5-o6 obviously
added nothing TO the Monroe Doct rine,
but was logical and indisputable de-
duction from il. Accordingly, President
CLEVELAND and Mr.. OLNEY informed the
British Foreign Office that our Govern
ment deemed itself bound 10 insist that
the title to the territory claimed by both
Great Britain and Venezuela should be
asccrtained by an impartial tribunal
In that demand Great Britain acquiesced,
and, rs it turned out, she had no reason TO
complain of the decision made by the
Court Of Arbitration.
The construction of the Monroe Doc
trinc by our State Department in 1895 90
commended itself to vast majority of
the American people. 1t still commands
their unqualified approval. Nor is there
any reason TO doubt that the principle
;hen recognized by England would, if
now reassertcd in the case of Patos
Island by Secretary HAY, be again recog-
nized by her to-day.
