THE VENEZUELA SITUATION

The Venezuela trouble analysed by
the Springfield Mass Republican,
follows: THE publication of the full
text of the Venezuelan protocols will
satisfy public interest and also tend to
dissipate certain misconceptions that
have been prevalent Before leaving
the subject, it is only fair to England
and Germany to explain more fully the
chief causes Of their action in using
coercion.
Each power had two kinds Of claims
those OF the first class, and those OF
the second class. 1t was chiefly the
first class claims that impelled them,
az they both have declared, to pursue
a warlike policy. Germany last sum-
mer. however, offered mode of settle
ment that would have enabled Vene-
zuela to take all the claims before The
Hague tribunal. England, 80 far as is
known, made no such offer. The first
class British claims, which are referred
to in article 2 OF the British protocol
and on account OF which a cash pay
ment Of $4,000 is made, were des-
cribed by Mr.. Balfour in the House of
Commons on December 10 in a very
interesting speech, Let us now refer

difficulty has been the outrageous man

seamen and the rights Of shipowners

them, and when we have demonstrated

THE PRIMARY BILL

There is much speculation as to what
the senate will do with the primary
election bill now before it, The house
passed bill making the primary la"
effective to all officers now nominated
in conventions, either municipal, coun-
ty or state. That the bill will not pass
the senate in its present form is just as
certain as day follows night. On such
a bill as the primary election bill the
vote in the senate will be very close
and should the three Democratic sena-
tors oppose the measure the Stalwarts
would defeat it. or they could add such
riders or amendments to it that the
house would have to reconsider the
measure and the bill, passing backward
and forward between the senate and
house, would consume 80 much time
that it may ultimately be defeated
The present bill is so radical in its
character that the senate will be wise
in hating anything like haste in the
matter. The caucus and convention
system which has done service for 80
long time need not nor should 1t be
displaced for a system Of nominating
candidates without due consideration

FISHES FACES DECEIVING.
One Cannot Always Tell by Their Ex-
preston What Their Char
acters Are.

"Fish are a good deal like people, y
said Superintendent Spencer, of the
New York aquarium. you can't al
ways tell by their countenances what
to expect of them. Look at that fell
low there, now!"
He pointed to a tiger fish which
was butting its nose against the
glass of its tank. No more villain
GUS face of the pugnacious sort
could be found in days search in
the haunts of the third-rate pugil-
lists.
Looks as if he would fight at the
wriggle of fin, doesn't hep" the
superintendent continued. "See those
jaws! Bad eye, too. Wen, sir, that
is the most gentle fish in the aquaI-
ium-one of the clinging kind, that
seeks affection and kindness. Now
over there is a(lady fish. just OBJ
serve those brilliant colors, and that
dear, innocent face, and notice the
coaxing, graceful movements Of its
tail. You'd think it would eat out
Of your hand, and droop if you
scolded it.
"On the contrary, it's the most I'M
ladylike fish in this collection; it's
temper is shrewish, and its habits
are bad, and if you give it a chance
it would bite you like savage bull
pup. It's a vicious fish, and doesn't
deserve all those fine airs it has"
Mr.. Spencer put his hand near the
glass front of the tank, says the
New York Mail and Express. There
was an instant commotion; the in
sinuating tail dashed the water, and
that angelic mouth bumped sharply
against the barrier in swift effort
to nip the tip of the superintend-
ent's finger.
"Would you ever think it?" said
Mr.. Spencer. Lady fish, indeed!"

RACES of this description for which no
apology was offered, no compensation
given, and no explanation suggested!
These claims evidently affected the
honor of the British nation; and 1t may
be added that our own government In
in President Harrison's time sent war
ship to Chill to demsnd an apology and
reparation for an insult no worse
than the alleged outrages on British
seamen and merchantmen by Vene-
zuelan gunboats on the watch for fill

German subjects on the high sea as they
were upon the property of German
planters and traders ashore. During
the civil wars these planters have suffer
ed depradations for the support OF the
belligerents, and their claims have in
no respect been those OF bondholders or
owners Of Venezuelan debt securities.
Germany called for s34O 600 as COM
ensation for these claims, whereas Eng
land was satisfied with $27, 600. 1t Is
assumed in some quarters that Ger
many was exorbitant while England
was generous in these demands for cash.
But no such assumption is well FUNDED
unless it can be shown that the losses
and humiliation Of the German subjects
were no more than those of the English
subjects. If Germany demanded more
than England, the reasonable hypothe-
sis is that the bona fide German claims
of the first class were the more numer-
GUS and represented larger personal
damages. Both sets OF claims may
have been fimsy, but in the one case no

rious that the British island OF Trinidad
was the regular base OF operation for
filibusters carrying arms and ammuni-

was in the course of operations designed
to check that business that the Venezue'
Ian gunboats committed their outrages
on British ships and seamen. The NOR

THE POPE'S CORONATION

Leo XIII, pope. will celebrate the
twenty fifth anniversary OF his corona
ton next Tuesday. He, truly, is a re-
markable man. Crowned when he had
1eashed the sixty eighth year of his life,
he vet lives to witness the silver jubilee
OF that eventful day. OF all the popes
of history Leo XIII is distinguished
He is in the line OF il!ustrious incum-
bents of the papal throne the two hun
bred and sixty second and but two OF
his predecessors have surpassed him in
length of service, namely Plus TX and
ST Peter, the latter's occupancy OF the
Office of bishop Of Rome is, however,
only speculative.
Leo XIII is preeminent among the
galaxy of popes for one virtue, that OF
liberality in other words Of conforming
papal policy to harmonic with the
spirit of progress in science, education,
political freedom, 80 manifest now
throughout the world. Pope Leo has
been more than cleric with authority
TO govern a great organization; he has
frequently displayed the powers OF a
statesman, the sagacity Of a diplomat
and The unerring wisdom Of wise
Judge. For one in his position, en-
vironed with the conservatism Of ages,
wedged in by forms and historic poll
cies which have had the sanction OF his
predecessors, with the church's known
antagonism to change he has raised
above precedent and shown himself a
ruler Of worldwide power
This Old Man Wonderful has achieved
more during his pontificate, which
started when most men lay their lifes
labors down, than is allotted for most
men in great positions to do in life
time, covering the whole span. In
France his advice takenby the Royali5ts
and the Catholic Socialists at a critical
time reconciled antagonstic forces and
brought about a political unity, not
land Of Charlemagne is now loyal to
Republican government. The same
policy that he pursued in France he has
evidenced in ether lands, by advising
Catholic citizens Of respective countries
to Loyalty support the government
under which they live. 1t was in his
reign that the hierarchy was rees-
tablshed in England after three hun
dred years of suppression. He has
borne such relations with the German
empire that Catholics there are now as
well off as they are in the United States
In this country he has established an
apostolic delegation which has final
jurisdiction in things pertaining to the
conduct Of the church here
The popes encylicals and other utter
ances have been cOuched in a broad
spirit, breathing tolerance charity, yet
he has vigorously stood for higher
moral life among the nations Of the
world, and he has taken occasion 10
strongly condemn lax morality where

POISON FOUND IN POTATOES.
Sofa nine, 1t Is Called, and 1t Causes
Illness and Sometimes Brings

Potatoes contain poisonous aka
loid known as solanine. Little of this
poison is found in the new potatoes,
but even fresh potatoes which have
grown above the surface of the soil
and have green skin are generally
known to be poisonous, says scien-
tifc authority. When potatoes are
kept long time they contain large
amount of this poison, and many cases
of serious poisoning have occurred in
late summer from eating old potatoes.
About ten years ago many soldiers in
the German army were i'll from an I'M
known cause. They suffered with head
ache, collie, diarrhea, vomiting, weak
ness, and slight stupor, and in some
cases dilatation of the pupils. The
matter was investigated and it was dis
covered that the men had been eating
potatoes which had been kept for a
long time in damp place until they
had begun to sprout. Chemical ex-
animation revealed the fact that these
potatoes contained "a times as much
solanine as is found in new potatoes.
