MONROE DOCTRINE UPHELD BY
SPEAKER CLARK IN ADDRESS

New York, March San Optimist' S
View," was the title of Speaker Clark's
address at the Bedford Young Mems
Christian Association this afternoon, but
he hit at a number of the vital issues of
the day, and every time he did he
aroused applause. Touching on the Mon
roe doctrine, he said:
Every once in a while somebody says
the Monroe doctrine is dead. Let me
tell you, 1t was never more alive than at
present. Cleveland made history when
he re-emphasized the Monroe doctrine in
the Venezuelan crisis. Other American
statesmen have been as true to the same
policy. which is simply this:
mo European power shall interfere
on this hemisphere Originally, we told
Europe it should not colonize here. 1t
is natural that European nations do not
like this idea. Europe never did like 1t.
Europe. however, always has respected
this doctrine.
Whenever an European power was
about to lay hands on a South or Central
American country, il took a good long
look at lis and stopped. The Monroe
doctrine has stood ninety-one years. and
SO far has not cost us a red cent"
In speaking of the present troubles in
Mexico, Speaker Clark said:
"Of course, they are having trouble
Gown there, but they VIII come out the
stronger for it"
In telling how the country had grown
better, how dueling and gambling, once
by society, have come to
be regarded as crimes, Speaker Clark
said:
War, too, is to coming to be regarded
as a crime. Nevertheless, Americans.
believe, do not want peace at any price.
but peace with honor. We are very
quick to feel any one else treading on
our toes.
II believe Congress should pass a reso-
luton for international disarmament, a
that could be effected by
degrees. On the other hand, / do not
think we should lose our self-respect.
do not think we WILL
Speaker Clark deplored the mud raking
which made people think the country was
going to the bow-wows." Such pessi- |
mism, he said. had an i'll effect on the |
youth Of the land. |

rights upon the isthmUs as a quid pro

At all events let US not present TO the
world in general the unedifying spectacle
of ignoring the rights OF our treaty
parties. To do II may not necessarily
mean war, in this case assuredly not. for
in the end England would acquiesce, but
to do il would bring upon us what is
worse than war-a lack of confidence and
the contempt of all other governments.

While Jumping From Buggy Which
Was Being Drawn by Runaway
Horse In Martins Ferry
Yesterday.

What may result in a fatal acci-
dent occurred yesterday afternoon
about o'clock on South Second
street. Martins Ferry, when Arch
Norman. well known young
man OF this city. was dragged a con-
siderable distance by a frightened
horse over the paved street. The
man was driving the horse in a light
trap when the horse frightened at a
passing train and started at a rapid
pace down the street. In attempting
10 jump from the rig, Norman got
his foot caught In the spokes OF the
wheel and was thrown heavily 10
the ground. Persons passing along
the street at the time stopped the
horse. but not until Norman was
seriously injured.
A hurried call was sent for Hes
lop's ambulance and he was removed
TO the Martins Ferry hospital where
his injuries we're dressed and last
evening it was said that his condi-
ton was critical.
