THE MONROE DOCTRINE.

The strenuous events that have turned the attention of the world to the Central American republic of Nicaragua, during some weeks now, and the hand the Washing ton government seems forced to take in the internal affairs of that country, have brought to the fore again the Monroe Doctrine and the place it has occupied nearly a century in American diplomacy. By virtue of having enunciated and promulgated that doctrine during the administration of Presi- dent Monroe, and having expand. ed and enlarged its scope under the administrations of other presidents notably Polk, Grant, Cleveland and Roosevelt,-it stands forth clearly and without dispute as a base or foundation for exercise by the United States of a lively inter est in the affairs of all the countries upon the American continent.
 Yet in way this great principle of American statecraft had its con- ception in the mind of a British statesman, George Canning, who was the foreign secretary in the administration of Lord Portland in 1907, and again fifteen years later during which later incum. bency of the post he espoused the cause of the Spanish colonies in America ill their struggle to termi. nate their dependency upon the Spanish crown, and induced the American government to throw its weight and influence in the same direction.
 With the downfall of Napoleon in 1915 the continental monarchs who had suffered most from tho ambitious designs and colossa operations of the Corsican, pro iected the Holy Alliance which wal conceived and proposed by Alex ander First of Russia, and em braced by Austria, Prussia, France and Spain. In it's first inception

consequence of that occupation, that we should blockade Cadiz? No; 1 looked another way. 1 sought material for compensation in another hemisphere. Contem- plating Spain, such as our ancestors had known her, 1 resolved that, if France had Spain, it should not be Spain with the Indias. 1 called the New World into existence to redress the balance of the Old"
 The foregoing is the real history of how the Monroe doctrine hadits birth, and reveals how momentous it's declaration was at the time, and gives glimpses of how much it, at the time, did to ensure the inde- pendence of Spanish America, and what a factor of peace to our country it always was up to our war with Spain, and what it has saved to all the states of Spanish America since it was promulgated by President Monroe, eighty.six years ago. No attempt was ever made to set it aside, except when, in the stress of our civil war, France and Austria tried to found an empire in Mexico, when, after Appomattox, Secretary Seward mo- tified France that the United States government expected that as soon as possible, France would recall her army from Mexico, the shadow of the Monroe Doctrine was behind his words, while beneath that shadow were one hundred thousand seasoned veterans, victors from 8 hundred bloody battle fields; and Napoleon III hastened to observe the diplomatic intimation of the great American statesman.
 Since 1865 there have been vari- ous notifications and elaborations of the famous doctrine, each of which has extended the scope and extent of the responsibility of the United States for the preservation of order upon the American conti- nent, and its consequent right to intervene whenever there may be internal disorder in any of the American countries, such as that which has called now for interven- tion in Nicarauua

N~NA HSs AANNA AON - ''N''a epoch arrived in the relative posi- ton of the United States toward Europe which Europe must acknowledge? Were the great political and commercial interests, which hung upon the destinies of the new continent to be canvassed and adjusted in this hemisphere, without the cooperation, or even the knowledge of the United States?"
 Minister Rush transmitted all this and much more to Washing ton, and after much discussion in President Monroe's cabinet, the President, with the advice of his secretary of state, John Quincy Adams, put forth his famous decla- ration, where, after referring to the radical differences between the political systems of Europe and America, he said: We should consider any attempt on their part to extend their system to any DOT. tion of this hemisphere as danger ous to our peace and safety" and where governments have been recognized by us, i've could not view any interference for the pur- pose of suppressing them, or con trolling in any other manner their destiny, by any European power, in any other light than as mani festation of an unfriendly disposi- tion toward the United States" :"
 The message was received in Eng land with far more enthusiasm
 than in the United States. The
 papers were full of it; the securities
 of Spanish America rose in the
 market. Lord Brougham declared
 in parliament that mo event had
 ever dispersed greater joy, exulta-
 tion and gratitude over all the
 freemen of Europe" Sir James
 Macintosh rejoiced in the coinci-
 dence of England and the United
 States, "the two great commons
 wealths," as he delighted to cal
 them, and he heartily prayed thai
 "they might be forever united ir the cause of justice and liberty ] The Holy Alliance abandoned theil purpose on this continent and tn, independence of Spanish Americf was established.
 [ Later, when Mir. Canning fel called upon to vindicate his foreigl policy, he said Gin the Commons
 Dec. 12, 1826): 1t would be dis , ingenious not to admit that tn entry of the French army int Spain was in a certain sense, dis 1 arrangement, an affront, to ou pride, blow to the feelings 0 l England. But deny that, ques ) tionable or censurable as the ac ] may be, it was one that called fo 3 our direct and hostile opposition 5 Was nothing, then, to be done l If France occupied Spain, was necessary, in order to avoid tn

but by invitation France and Spain entered into the compact afterward. The treaty framing the Alliance consisted of a declaration that in accordance with the pre- cepts of the gospel of Jesus Christ the principles of justice, charity and peace should be the basis of the internal administrations Of their respective monarchies, and in their international relations; and that the happiness and religious welfare of their subjects should be their great object. It was the declaration presented that gave the compact it's distinctive name. The real aim was to maintain the power and influence of the existing dynasties against the rising tide of constitutionalism. Of all the great powers of Europe Great Britain alone opposed the Alliance vehem- ently, and large part of the Brit; ish diplomacy of that period was devoted toward circumventing it's aims and the ends it sought.
 As a detail of the Alliance if necessary the united forces of all the powers could be used to quell any revolutionary uprising in any part of Europe; and in accordance with that understanding French army invaded Spain in 1920 and restored to the Spanish throne Ferdinand, the Bourbon king who had been deposed by a revolution. Up to that time the operations of the Holy Alliance were of no in- terest to the people and govern ment of the United States. But in 1923 the Spanish throne appealed to the Alliance for aid in securing restoration of its authority over it's lost colonies in America. At the same time Russia manifested dis position to extend it's sway down the Pacific Coast of North America
 embracing what are now British Columbia, Washington and Oregon
 It was at that critical iuncturt that MT. Canning conceived thf idea that in the developments O.
 the time the United States held g
 deep and abiding interest. He en
 deavored to enlist the sympathy o i the American minister to Grea
 Britain, but Mir. Rush declared it would be beyond the policy oi
 the United States and contrary tt
 it's traditions to interfere in Euro
 pean politics, to which Canning
 replied that this question was "ful
 as much an American as European 1 to say no more"-that it concerned
 the United States under aspect
 and interests as immediate ant
 commanding as those of any stat
 of Europe, and then asked; "Wa
 it possible that they could, witl indifference, see their fate decided
