The Monroe doctrine, which is often
denounced on the Continent as both
insolent and injurious, is distinctly
beneficial to Great Britain because,
while it does not in any way increase
the danger of Canada from her mighty
neighbor, it helps to shelter her, and
the West Indies with her, from any
menace coming from any European
power. No state could hope, even if
it defeated Great Britain or France,
for any acquisitions in the western
hemisphere, because any demand of
the kind would lead to a second, and
almost hopeless war with the United
States. 1t is beneficial to the world
because it retains one hemisphere in
peace and independence, leaving its
component states to work out their
own destiny in their own way, and
try experiments in governing without
interference. And it is beneficial to
Europe because it immensely reduces
her material for dangerous jealousies
If for any reason that doctrine became
null or were suspended all Europe
would be at war for slices of Spanish
and Portuguese America. 1t was sul
pended, indeed, within living memory
for a few months by the American
civil war, and instantly French army
was encamped in Mexico, to preserve

The outrage against nom union
miners at Victor, Colo, growing out
of the miners strike il the Cripple
Creek district, will do more to create
non union sentiment in the country
than any event in many years. 1t
will ALLEVIATE from the unions many
thousands of workingmen who do not
believe in violence and who wish to
own and control their own actions.
The placing and explosion of mine,
which sent almost score Of nom
union men to their death without
warning and for no offence, was the
sneaking work of an assassin and was
as diabolical as anything we read of
in the Dark Ages Exchange.

SWALM'S OPINION.
Says Landslide in Missouri is Due to
Iowa Emigration.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 14.-Col-
onel AL Swain and wife are in the
city as guests of their daughter, Mrs.
Nina Swalm-Reed. They sail for Eng,
land Wednesday. Colonel Swain said
that not less than 5000 Iowa families
had gone into Missouri in the last
few years taking up cheaper land. A
similar movement had proceeded from
Illinois, Nebraska and other states.
Their influence in converting Nilsson.
ri was tremendous, and h~encerorth it
would be a doubtful if not a republi-
can state. He considers that the In:
fluence of sulking, stay-at-home silver
men on election day throughout the
country was great and is not as yet
fully appreciated.

 "The natives, who constitute the ma ior.ty of permanent settlers, are nearly all adherents of the Russian orthodox church and are domineered in certain matters very effectively by Russian priests.
 "The majority of white men consti- tutiug the minority of the permanent settlers in western Alaska are married to native women. The offspring of such union, are almost invariably brought up in the belief of the Russian religion-and hat is the outcome?Ir is
