WHY DRAG IN lfONROEs

The proposal which is said to have
been made at Buenos Ayres, but which
happily has now been shelved, to reyamp
and extend the Monroe Doctrine as Il
new declaration of all the American
states is of a class with numerous other
schemes which have been put forward
from time to time concerning that vener-
able and exceedingly serviceable prin-
ciple of foreign and domestic pol
icy. and is one of the best meant
and most reasonable of them. Yet the
wisdom of this and of all similar pro-
posals is seriously to be doubted, on the
whole, at any rate SO far as their con-
nection with the Monroe Doctrine is con-
cerned. They may be good things, but
they should be cast in some other form.
The Monroe Doctrine was one of the
most important ever enunciated by our
government. and it has had enormous in
fuence, almost entirely for good, in the
affairs of this hemisphere and some
influence. even, II. the affairs of the
Old World But Ii was the per-
fectly simple utterance of this single
maintained and operated and has been
interpreted and understood in the dipl0-
macy of the world. To transform it now
into the complex declaration of a score
of states would be to cause confusion
and doubt, and not to strengthen but
rather, we fear, 10 weaken it. Standing
alone, in its classic simplicity. just as the
younger and greater Adams wrote If,
and as the single and independent voice
Of this nation, It Will continue 70 be
more unfaflingly understood and to
command more respect than it would
III a sophisticated form and as the voice
OF a transient convention Of numerous
and sometimes jarring states.
It might be well for the Pan-American
Congress, amid the other good work
which we expect that body to perform
10 adopt some statement or declaration
concerning the relationship Of the coun-
tries represented with the rest of the
world, though obviously it would have
TO be phrased in very general terms
But why should 1t be made Il pendant
TO or a revision of the Monroe Doc
trine? Why drag in VelasqueZ? de-
manded a famous artist on a noted oc-
casion. Why drag in Monroe? The na
tons of America are great enough and
should be wise enough to formulate their

BAIT FOR THE INDEPENDENTS

BAIT FOR THE INDEPENDENTS
The Brooklyn Eagle" thinks that the
Democratic platform in this state this
year should consist of three sentences
One, It says should allude TO the growth
in state expenditures. Another should
be devoted 'to the breakdown in repre-
sentative government at Albany The
third should cover the summoning of aid
from Washington in state affairs. i
platform such as "The Eagle recon-.
mendS could be constructed. but hardly
III three sentences. It would probably
take the Democratic convention twenty
five or fifty times that number of sen
tences to express its Indignation over
the waste and extravaganza" of Re
publican administrations. The ''intimida-
tion" of legislatures and the .'interfer'
ence' from Washington.
But we wonder how many votes
would be won by a platform constructed
on the lines favored by The Eagle.
Contests in this state are usually deter
mined by the attitude of the independent
voters This intelligent class will read
fly understand that the growth in state
expenditures has not been due to waste
and maladministration but TO the state 5
embarking upon policies Of which the
public thoroughly approves, such as con
struction of highways, Improvement of
canals and humane treatment of the in
sane. And. again, how many Of these
independent voters who have been i'll
dignant because the Legislature failed
to follow the leadership of Governor
Hughes can be won over by the charge
that the Governor, Senator Root and
Colonel Roosevelt have been attempting
tn intimidate the Legislature? The In
dependent element has all along heartily
approved the very things The Eagle
calls upon the Democratic convention to
disapprove Moreover, the Democratic
candidates who loom largest for the
nomination are men who have either
been connected with the Hughes admin
istration or who have expressed their
approval of his policies and whose char
acter and record at least are supposed
TO suggest to the public certain politi-
cal kinship with the Governor.
1t is very hard TO be for and against
q thing at the same time. as the case
of MI Chanler proved. The Eagles
conception of the duty Of opposition is
bolder than Mr. Chanler'S. IT has at
least that much merit.

THE QUARTER IN STEEL.

The United States Steel Corporation's
quarterly report will have its effect In
checking whatever tendency has existed
to attach undue Importance TO the long
continued slump In Stock Exchange
prices Whatever hesitancy or pessf
mism there may have been in business
circles in the last quarter Is not re
fected in the result of the company's
operations Earnings are unexpectedly
large, making the quarter the best in the
coEIpany's history since the panic and
placing it almost in the class with the
successful quarters of 1906 and 1907.
Moreover, throughout the quarter there
has been Improvement, earnings for
Hume being heavier than earnings for
April
SO far as earnings are concerned. they
reflect chiefly past conditions, and it is
to untitled orders that the public has to
look for IN indication of present ten
denotes. The quarters total, 4,251.194
tons, is considerably below that Of the
previous quarter. but this shrinkage is
undoubtedly to considerable extent
seasonal. A fairer basis of comparison
is with the untitled tonnage of the CORE
spending quarter of last year, over
which this quarters total shows gain
of 100000 tons. while orders since the
first of July are said to have been well
sustained. In connection with this d
word should be spoken in appreciation
CT the corporations courageous new
policy of making public its unified ton
mage monthly in the future instead of
quarterly, as at present. 1t is an ex-
ample of enlightened extension Of pub
licity which other Industrial corporations
should follow
The report doubtless was influential
in steadying the stock market yester-
day. In the boom days of last year in
dustrial reports indicated that Wall
Street was OVERRIDING the rise. Now
they indicate that it is going 10 the other
extreme.

Many extra men are said to be needed

when there is most work to be done

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Following close on the heels of the
basket ball game with Idaho Springs
in which our teams came off with SO
much honor comes the announcement
of a game with Littleton here next
Tuesday evening, which may or may
not be a double header. Much en-
thusiasm is being manifested in the
school, and the boys say that they
are going to play with oven greater
determination than they showed in
the recent game. A big crowd ought
to turn out and encourage the High
school,
Prof. Mooney, state high school Wis
itor from the Normal at Greeley, was
a visitor in the High school last Fri
day afternoon. He addressed the stu
dents in a twenty minute talk .illed
with splendid points. He was accom-
panied by friend from Chicago and
when he left promised to come ,gain
soon and stay longer.
Former Superintendent F. H. Clark,
after whom the grade building was
named, was a visitor in the S1ools
on Wednesday of this week. He de-
clined an invitation to addreIs the
school, as he said it would male him
too homesick. While in the Building,
he pointed out a desk in the library
which was made by Superintendent
Hale in 1868. Prof. Clark thinks that
this desk ought to be donated b the
State Historical association.
Four weeks from next Mondg be-
gins the second half year of wG'k in
the High school. Some subjects will
have been finished by that time and
others will start. New classes will
form in civics, botany and U. s his
tory, while there is some talk of a
review class in good. hard arithmetic.
1t may be that some young Ieople
around town who are ready fo high
school work but who have NIT yet
started in could accomplish some
thing worth while for themselhs by
coming to school during this hcond
half year.
The Freshman class are bug this
week writing some essays aSdgne1
in ancient history. The work entails
first the reading Of from fifty b one
hundred or more pages in bdoxs in
the library. The essays will run from
500 to close to 1000 words, aht will
represent work.

The ten commandments are the

A man and wife are one-so, to

lists say it is, how does it get full
SO often?
a girl always thinks wedding
dress would look "just too sweet for
anything" on her.
The golden rule is one OF the kind
I that works both ways.
A man that can't be driven to
drink is often easily led into other
kinds OF temptation.
A woman might be willing to try
to live on love, but man does not
love her who would let her try It,
Gossip over the teacups must be as
enjoyable to women as after-dinner
cigars are to men.
A mans face is his fotunne when
1t is good for anything he wants at
the butchers.
If kisses were poisonous some wo-
man would have discovered an anti
dote long, long ago.
Some women are just contrary
enough not to give in that they ever
give out.
Young men who let their feet lead
them astray sometimes become po-
litical geniuses.
Sometimes man makes an ass of
himself over girl and slips his head
into the halter.
A diplomatic man never admires
his wife in dress that hooks down
the back.
Money is shrinking. There is talk
of even making the paper bills small

The woman who marries for mon-
cy doesn't often get man who is
worth much.
