mail making a mile a minute, running
into Clopton. and, as he looked to see if
the tracks were clear, to his horror he

MR.. ROOSEVELT ON THE MONROE
DOCTRINE.

In his vigorous and able defense of the
Mogroe doctrine, in his first speech on
his Western itinerary, Mr.. Roosevelt will
be applauded by men of all parties and
all sections. That doctrine, suggested to
Monroe by Thomas Jefferson, has been
our pillar of cloud for half a century.
In the Cleveland administration Mr. Oh
ney received the plaudits of all the people
for his statesmanlike insistence upon the
maintenance of the Monroe doctrine
in the Venezuelan incident. In the
Roosevelt administration, Mr.. Hay has
in the later Venezuelan trouble
stood as strenuously for that doc
trine. Although there seemed at one
time TO be a danger that England and
Germany would evade the doctrineby their
invasion to collect debts, that danger
passed away. Mr.. Roosevelt is a manly
defender of that pure piece of American
ism-a doctrine that alone has saved
South and Central America from the ra-
pacity of European colony grabbers.
