SIGNIFICANT RETURNS.

The returns from the elections in the
several congressional districts OF Virginia
are significant. In the Third District.
one OF the most populous in the State,
Inc total vote cast was $3.50. The total
vote cast in the Fourth District was
about ne same, and ii was only little
more in the Sixth District. But in the
Filth District it aggregated l6,T7, and in
The Ninth District the aggregate was b.
10.
The reason for this is not hard to find.
Th.rs spas pracucaIly no contest in the
THIRD District and practically no con-
test IN The Fourth pisucL But there
was a contest in the Fifth District. and
IN the Ninth District there was a ve.y
spirited contest. IN the Third and
Fourth Districts the voters took no in
,erest In the election and compa. alvey
few Of them troubled themselves to go
10 the Polls ard vote. In the Fifth and
Nlnth DlstrIcts the voters did take an
interest ana la sc vote was polled-
We have mentioned that in some of
the SoGthern States the total vote cast
was ridiculously small, IN the State Of
louisiana only about one person in six

TIE MONROE DocTR.HE.

a recent editorial in the London News
on the Monroe doctrine has provoked
much discussion on this side Of the At
lautic. Our London correspondent, dis
cussiaS the British and German claims
against Venezuela. said that the best
line for England and Germany to take
was 10 make the United States respon-
sible for troubles within Its sphere Of
influence adding that if the United
States was TO have the privilege Of the
Monroe doctrine she should also have
Ats duties.
II seems very strange that an intelli-
gent English newspaper should have
such total mlsconcepuon Of the Monroe
doctrine, especially as the doctrine came
20 US from England. And yet it Is not
so strange after all. because there has
been a great deal of loose talk on this
subject by American writers and speak
ers and when President Cleveland made
his stupendous blundcr in threatening
10 so to war with Great Britain be-
cause of some dispute in Venezuela,
naturally Engiishmen got the impress
