The Objections to the Monroe Doc
trine.

The Objections to the Monroe Doc
trine.
We printed on November 10 a letter
in which a correspondent set forth rea-
sons for concurring in the assertion made
by Professor BURGESS at Berlin that the
Monroe Doctrine is obsolete. and ought
to be renounced. Let us review these OBJ
~jections and examine their validity.
What, asked our correspondent, were
the motives which prompted President
MONROE to proclaim the doctrine which
bears his name? The motives, we are
told, were two: First, the United States,
in the third decade of the last century,
was a weak Power and desired to avert
the necessity of defending itself against
stronger European Powers, a necessity
that would arise il these should acquire
footholds in the New World. Secondly,
the United States, having adopted a
democratic form of government, would
naturally desire other Governments on
this continent to be of the democratic
rather than of the monarchical type.
