THAT MONROE DOCTRINE.
How a Long Line of Presidents Has
Asserted It.
Baltimore American" Rep).

Baltimore American" (Rep.).
What we call "the Monroe Doctrine" is
not, properly speaking, a doctrine at all.
Rather is it a declaration OF executive pol
icy, for as originally made by President
James Monroe, on December 2, 1923, it
did no more than define the attitude of
bis administration toward the question,
then pending, of the occupation and col
onization of territory on this hemisphere,
by on-American Powers. That declara-
ton, reiterated by Monroe on December
:, 1924, was made with England's knoWl-
edge and consent, and bound this nation
no further than the end of the Monroe
Administration.
1t would have lapsed with Its authors
exit from office had it not struck the chord
of public sentiment, and had not Mr..
Monroe's successors recognized the wisdom
of giving adherence to the policy defined
by him. This they did, and we find that
the policy of Monroe was reasserted:-
By Tyler, on December 80, 1912.
By Polk, on December 2, 1915.
By Polk, on December Z, 1S47.
By Polk, on April 20, 1S48.
BY Buchanan, on December 6, 1858.
By Buchanan, on December 8, 1860.
By Grant, on May 81, 1870.
BY Grant, on December 5, 1870.
By Grant, on April 5, 1871.
Bv Cleveland, on December 2, 1895.
BY Cleveland, on December II, 1895.
BY Mckinley aid Roosevelt, on numer-
GUS occasions in the past six years.
*Grant, in reasserting the doctrine, de-
cared it should be extended, and on May
81, 1870, in message to Congress, said
that thereafter territory on this hemis-
phere should not be he'd Subject of
transfer (by treaty or otherwise) to any
European Power"
AS the original declaration of this policy
was made in message to Congress, 30
has been each reassertion of 1t, and out
side of these documents the doctrine of
Monroe has no official existence. 1t does
not live in any act of Congress nor in any
of the treaties by which nations are
bound, nor has it ever been recognized as
a principal of international law Therein
lies its principal weakness-outside of pub
lie sentiment, and save as chief execu-
tive of the nation chooses to give it adj
herence, it is nonexistent 1t is, there
fore, not doctrine, but merely a matter
of administrative policy.
Certainly think by which the Ameri.
can people set such store deserves greater
permanence, clearer and better delinea-
ton, more authoritative declaration and
more forceful expression. AS it is tenet
of the American faith, it should be de-
cared by the people, through Congress,
and signed by the President, thus becom'
ing part of the law of the land, of which
other nations would have to take notice.

Don't Worry.

This is easier said than done, yet it may
be of some help to consider the matter. Il
the cause is something over which you
have no control it isIobvious that worrying
will not help the matter in the least. On
the other hand, if within your control you
have only to act. When you have cold
and fear an attack of pneumonia, buy a
bottle of Chamberlain Cough Remedy
and use it judiciously and all cause for
worry as to the outcome will quickly disap-
pear. There lis no danger of pneumonia
when it is used. Sold by Jno. E. Jackson.

Increase in Grimes.
Philadelphia Press.

Philadelphia Press
DR.. Arthur Macdonald, of the United
States Bureau of Education, has made a
report to the Government which will not
increase the pride of "civilized men"
Within the last forty years, he says,
"there has been an increase, relative to
population, in crime, suicide, insanity and
other forms of abnormality." The States
in this country that show the greatest ed
ucation and intelligence, as the North
Atlantic, Central and Western, also exceed
in insanity, suicide, nervous diseases,
juvenile criminals aud paupers.
The greater use of malt liquors and Of
sugar. he thinks, contributes something to
this increase in crime. immigration has
much to do with it, adding largely to the
number of criminals, insane and other I'M
desirable classes. Over one-half the In
mates of some Of the large institutions for
criminals and insane are foreign born. In
the South, where few immigrants 60, there
is a much better showing in that respect.
If the undesirable immigrants were kept
out the percentage of insane and of cfimi-
mails would be largely reduced.
But the facts Of which DR.. Macdonald
speaks are not confined to any one coun-
try. There may be temporary increase in
crime, but that the world is growing worse
will hardly be accepted as a fact. DIR.
Macdonald says that the increase in evil
may be only a temporary one, due to the
pressure Of adaptabiIity to mod
ern civilization. 1t is most unfortunate
that there should be any increase in evils;
but the facts call for greater attention in
the application of remedies. Better care
of children is one great need, and particu-
arly of those who grow up in the slums Of
cities, with no one to care for them.

DisIocated Her Shoulder.

Mrs. Johanna Soderholm, of Fergus
Falls, Mimi, fell and dislocated her shout
der. She had a surgeon get it back in
place as soon as possible, but 1t was quite
sore and panied her very much. Her son
mentioned that he had seen Chamberlain
Pain Balm advertised for sprains and sore
ness, and she asked him to buy her bot
tie of it which be did. 1t quickly relieved
her and enabled her to sleep which she
had not been able to do for several days.
The son was so much pleased with the re-
lief it gave his mother that he has since
recommended it to many others. For sale

A Scientific Discovery.

Kodol does for the stomach that which
it is unable to do for itself, even when but
slightly dsordered or overloaded. Kodol
supplies the natural juices of digestion and
does the work of the stomach, relaxing
the nervous tension, while the inhamed
muscles of that organ are allowed to rest
and heal. Kodol dgests what you eat and
enables the stomach and digestive organs
to transform all food into rich, red blood.

Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
conSumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the conSumptive needs
most.
Scott EmulsioniSthe
ern method of feeding fat to
the conSumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive StomachS.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined Of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophoS-
phite8 in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.
