THE VENEZUELAN CRISIS


A crisis has arisen IN the Venezuelan |
imbroglio. Minister Bowen's PROPOSE |
ton that all nations having clsims
against Venezuela be given the same
treatment as the blOcksding powers
has been rejected and they insist that
the claims Of Great Britain, Germany
and Italy are preferred above others
and that they be Immediately paid or
the payment guaranteed by some re-
sponsible grantor. France has claims
preferred before the difficulty and the
United States and other nations also
have prior claims.
There is lurking suspicion In this
country, in France, and in Venezuela
and other South American countries,
that the unusual, unjust and perempt-
ory demands Of the allies are made for
the purpose Of testing the temper Of
the United States on the Monroe doc
trine, and if possible TO break down
the precedent Of the western hemi-
sphere. This suspicion, Of sinister in
tention, is growing daily in this coun
try and this country is making prepar-
alton to be in condition to uphold the
Monroe doctrine. Indeed it cannot, in
honor, do anything else.
England still CHATS, so far as its
ministry is concerned, at the humble
pie it was obliged to eat in the closing
days of Clevelandis administration,
when the president called q halt on
Great Britain in the matter Of the
Venezuelan boundary and obliged the
naughty and pugnsciOUs John Bull to
arbitrste the difficulty. Now, with the
backing of Germany and Italy, she
seeks again TO force a condition that
will at least call for an abatement Of
the Interpretation of the Monroe doc
trine, il not its disavowaL The allies
have counted without their host for
the Monroe doctrine will be sustained
at all hazards.
Some speculations are rife as to the
outcome in case Of war, and naval yes
sells and military strength is being
counted. Some things should be con
sidered in making these estimates.
The policy of both Great Britain and
Germany is not popular with the great
mass of their respective people
The world at large condemns their
policy. In event Of war the natural
allies of the United States would be
France and Russia besides other small
er powers. Canada would be at the
mercy Of the United States, which
could raise 100000 men as quickly as
they could be armed.
Russia would at once pUunce down
on British possessions in the orient
and, breaking out of the British Sea
with her fleets, would wipe the Otta-
man empire off the map Of Europe.
France would make reprisals Of Brit
ish possessions an dinf1uence in Afri
ca, and the final outcome of such g
war would be the complete overthrow
of both the British and German en-
pires.
1t is to be hoped that such war viii
not come; but it will come unless These
powers retreat from their demands
The attitude Of the allies is arbitrary
and unjust and should be rebuked.

cosURN IS HoNoRED.
Appointed Chief Of Live stock Division
Of s.. Louis Exposition

Chief Of Live stock Division
Of s.. Louis Exposition
Last week the Daily DrOver's Tele-
gram contsined the following editorial
remarks concerning the selection Of F.
D. CoburB aschief OF the live stock di-
vision Of the st. Louis exposition.
SThat merit counts is e1empliHed IN
the case Of Mr.. Coburn's appointment TO
the manager Of the live stock exhibition
Of the worlds fair. Mr. Coburn has not
turned his hand over to obtain the posi-
ton. he wanted the job alright, but in
his conscientiousDess he wanted the fair
officials to be entirely unbiased IN their
selection, 50 far as he was concerned.
II he was chosen he wanted to be chosen
on his worth and not through any
schemiDg or eiectioneering. All this
time other sspirants were chasing
around getting endorsements, but your
Uncle Coburn was at home saving
wood.
cit must be admitted, however, that
this method will not suffice to get q man
along in the world ninety-nins times out
OF hundred. It is seldom you hear of
man these days who is 50 excessively
conscientious that he considers the good
Of the position rather than his desire to
ill it. There are many men who would
assuredly exert their utmost powers to
I'LL the position with credit, but they
would not hesitate to resort to sharp
practices to obtain the job. AS a gen.
eral thing the fellow who waits for the
job to come to him will have plenty Of
time to sit around and it is only the
man with great ability who dare risk it
But IN Mr.. Coburn's case he doubtless
looked at the good Of the fair before be
did at his own promotion, thinkingthai
if the management could find anybody
better qualified they should be left tree
to secure him. 1t must be a satisfaction
to him to have received the appointment
under such conditions"

the Disease suooessfuIly.
Inasmnch as some CT the stock men
Of Sherman county have been troubled
with abortion among cattle, it is highly
desirable that the disease be stamped
out, and the means employed BY other
farmers may be Of value to the stock
growers Of this locality.
Isaiah SPrigg. Of Edwards county, IN
writing to the Kansas Farmer, says con-
corning abortion in cattle:
1.-TWO years ago was bothered with
the same trouble. I tried everything
could hear Of and could get nothing to
stop it. I used lime in water tanks,
used carbOlic acid in the barns, and on
the cattle, but still they lost their calves.
It began among my Durham COWS 6rst,
then went through my herd Of some 80
odd head. noticed one day in one Of
our county papers q cure. tried il and
am happy to say I have never lost sin
gle calf since. Take sir-slacked lime,
one part to two Of stock salt; give them
no other salt. They may not lick it
much at first, but they will get enough
to do them good. Keep lime in water
tanks and use carbolic acid in your
barns and I think the trouble viii stop
Don't use this receipt once and then
quit, but keep it up for some time after
the disease has disappeared"
Carbolic acid for contagious abortion
is recommended by W. W--Campbell, Of
Stafford county, and he gives the rem
edy for epidemic abortion:
al got it in my herds in the fall Of
1900, and lost so per cent Of calves in the
the spring Of 1901. In the spring of 19Oz
I saved every calf. I fed to the cows
carbolic acid every other day for abOat 1
month; fed it in small quantities at FIRST
gradually increasing it to little more
than one dram at a feed. I diluted i
with water and mixed it with grounC
feed"
