THE MONROE DOCTRINE.

Don't let the Monroe doctrine be-.
GENE a rawhead- and. bloody bones
There are few things we. have been
called to do with it, and a few We
may yet be called to do with it.
We used it to put the French out of
Mexico when after sending an army
there to enforce the payment of debt,
they had attempted to hold all of
Mexico's real estate as collateral and
under foreclosure. We had to use it
against Great Britain when that
country sought to grab large slice of
Venezuelan territory. And Secretary
Olney had to define its meaning to
European understanding when he
authorized Great Britain to land a
force of marines at Corinto, seize the
Nicaraguan custom house there,
collect its revenues, and hold it until
the revenues liquidated the debt.
Just what the Monroe doctrine
means, for us, has been pretty we'll

The fact that the democratic
majority in the U. S. senate has de-
Cided in secret caucus exactly what
form the tariff bill shall be in when
it receives the final and deciding vote
upon its passage makes the discussion
of the bill in the senate tame affair
and practically farce. The speeches
that are being made will have no
effect in changing the bill and SO
attract but little attention. When it
becomes a law little will be known
about it for the reason above given
the provisions having BEEN decided
upon in secret, behind closed doors.

When Jules Verne, the French
author, wrote his famous story. forty
years ago. describing an Imaginary
trip around the world in the miraeU-
lous time of eighty days, it was
scarcely believed that such a thing
could be possible of accomplishment.
Many have done it in much less time
since. One day last week Chicago
man, John Henry Mears, who left
New York on July for round the
world trip in record time on a wager,
reached Milwaukee on his way back
TO New York and left there with
twenty seven hours to spare In making
the circuit in 80 days, which is four
days ahead of all previous records.
He employed the fastest means of
travel available at all times, includ-
ing an aerOplane ride on the Pacific
coast, and also met with few delays
which set him back some, just miss.
ing a train once that would have
saved him twelve hours time. Among
his records is crossing the Atlantic
and visiting London. Paris, Berlin
and ST. Petersburg and spanning all
Asia in twenty two days.
