President Cleveland is the finest
specimen of jingo before the Ameri
can peopie. He has set the nations
of two continents in a state of
excitement, over a boundary line
dispute between England and
Venezuela, and has sunk the busi
ness interests of tho people of the
United States lower than any time in
the history of three generations. By
nis low tarin, tbe manufacturing es
tablishments of this country are well
nigh broken u . and tho men they
employee are out of work, or if at
work, aro at work at low wages such
ns their employers can pay. Instead
of making what we consume, the im
port?rs send to the old world to get
cheap goods, and have to pay for
them in gold, and that is drawing
the gold and whilfl that is going on,
Clevvland is pleading to Congress t
keep up the gold supply.
wi:at you say nrsr, say iasr, is a
good motto, and if England had
stood by tho motto in Vsnezuola, the
trouble now on hand wonld not txist
u,t nrst sue claimed territory by a
certain lino. Then 6he made a eec
ond claim, taking in another slice of
Vecozuelian territory. Then she
made a third claim going still fur

further into Venezuela. She was a
good deal like Esop's monkey, who
was weighing two pieces of cheese for
two cats. Every time be weighed
the cheese, he managed to take off a
bite for himself aud kept on consid
ering tho settlement of the cheese
dispute, till he bad eaten it all to the
utter discomfiture of the cats. Eng
land has considered the boundary
line question live times and everv
time has taken another slice of land
from Venezuela.
The Traction Company hands in
Philadelphia went on a strike last
week, uud it was several days before
the police of the city succeeded in
holding the toughs of the city from
destroying Traction Company prop
erty- The hudlum who are not the
employees of the Company were the
people who derailed and smashed
cars and did damage to other prop
erty. The toughs were denounced
on every side, but tho strikers had
the spmpathy of a large class of peo
ple, who are acquainted with the
method of watering stock and bonds
of the Company and charging 8 cents
fare to make the watered traction pa
per dividend paying paper and in
that way make the holders of the wa
tered stock rich in bonds that cost
them little money. The hands struck
for higher pay and 10 hours work.
The trouble with strikes is to disas
sociate tbe boolums, who fall in and
play the riot act all around, and put
themselves and the strikers under the
ban of the law. On Friday it was
believed the strike had come to an
end, but on Saturday it broke oat
anew over a disagreement of re-em-ploving
strikers.

Settle ar Fight.
President Cleveland sent a mes
sage to Congress on te 17th inst ,
that must be red to be appreciated.
If a war takes place between England
and the United States of America,
which God forbid, yon will want to
know something about the cause of
tne war. The quickest way to learn
the cause is to read the President's
message. Here it is. "To the Con
gress: In my annual message ad
dressed to congress on tbe 3d instant,
I called attention to the pending
boundary controversy between Great
Britain and the Republic of Vene
zuela, and re cited the substance of a
representation made by this govern
ment to her Britannic Majesty's goy
ernment suggestingreaaons why such
dispute should be submitted to ar
bitration for settlement, and inquir
iug whether it would be so submit
ted. The answer of the British gov
ernment, which was then awaited,
has since been received, and, together
with the dispatch to which it is a re
ply, is hereto appended.
Such reply ia embodied in two
communications addressed by the
British Prime Minister to Sir Julian
Puunceforte, the British Ambassador
at this Capitol It will be seen that
one of these communications is de
voted exclusively to observations up
ou the Monroe doctrine, aud claims
tnat in the present instance a new
and strange extension and develop
ment of this doctrine is insisted on
by the United State.-, that the reasons
justifying an appeal t-j the doctrine
enunciated by President Monroe are
generally inapplicable 'to Iho state
of things in which wo live at the pre
sent day, and especially inapplicable !
to a controversv involving the boun-i
dary line between Great Britain and
Venezuela.
Without attempting extended
argument in reply io these positions,
it may not be amiss to suggest that
the doctrine upon which we stand is
strong and sound, because its en
forcement is important to our peace
and safety cs a nation, and is eesen
ticl to the integrity of our free in
stitutions and the tranouil mainten
ance of our distinctive form of gov
ernment. It was intended to aririlv
to every stage of our national life.
and cannot become obsolete while
our Republic endurr s. If the balance
of power is justly a caused for jealous
anxiety among the governments of
the Did world, and n subject for our
absolute non-interference, none tbe
less i an observance of the Monroe
doctrine of vital concern to our peo
ple and their govsrnnient.
"Assuming, therefore, that we may
properly insist upon this doctrine
without regard to the state of thincs
in which we live.' or anv changed
onuuions nere or eisewbere, it is
Vl! t ? . .
not apparent,why its application may
not oe involved in the present con
troversy.
SO FOBSrOS I3CTKRPEKKNCE.
'If a European Power, by an ex
tension of its boundaries, takes pos
session of the territory of one cf our
neighboring republics against its will
ana in derogation or its rignts, it is
difficult to seo why, to that extent,
such European Power does not there
by attempt to extend it system of
government to that portion ' of this
continent which is thus taken. This
is the precire action whioh President
Monroe declares to be 'dangerous to
cur peace and safety, and it can make
no difference whether the Europeau
system is extended by an advance of
frontier or otherwise.
"It is also suggested in the British
reply tliat we should not seek to ap
ply the Monroe doctrine to the pen
ding dispute, becaugo he does not
embody any principle of internation
al law which 'ia founded od the gen
eral consent of nation?,' and that 'no
statesman, however eminent, and no
nation, however powerful, are com
petent to insert into the cede of in
ttrnational law a novel principle
which was never recognized before.
and wmcn Has not since been accep
ted by the government of any other
country.
'Practically the principle for which
we contend nas pecuuar, n not ex
clusive, relation to the United States.
It may not have been admitted in eo
many words to the code of interna
tional law, but since in internaticnal
counsels every nation is entitled to
tho rights belonging to it, if the en
forcement of the monroe doatrine is
something we may justly claim, it
has its place in the code of interna
tional law as certainly and as securely
as if it weie specifically mentioned,
and when tbe United States is a
suiter before the high tribunal that
admiuiaters international law, the
question to be determined is whether
or not we present claims which the
justice of that code of law can find
to be right and valid.
"The Monroe doctrine finds its
recognition in those principles of in
ternational law which are based upon
the theory that every nation shall
have its rights protected and its just
claims enforced
TE REFCSAI, TO ARBITRATE.
' Of course the Government is en
tirely confident that under the sane
tion of this doctrine we have clear
rights and undoubted claims. Nor
is this ignored in the British reply.
The Prime Minister, while not ad
mitting that the -Wonroo doctrine is
applicable to the present condition?,
states: 'In declairing that the United
States would resist any such enter
prise if it was contemplated. Presi
dent Monroe adopted a policy which
received the entire sympathy of the
English government of that date.'
He further declares: 'Thouorh the
language of President Monroe is di
rected to the attainment of obiects
which most Englishmen would agree
to be salutary, it is impossible to
admit that they , been inscribed by
any adequate authorit.v in thn ivwla
of international law.
"Again ha says: 'They (Her Ma
jesty's government) fully concur with
the views whioh President Monroe
apparently entertained, that any dis
turbance of the existing territorial
distribution in that hemisphere by
any fresh acquisition on the port of
European State would be a highly
inexpedient change.'
"In the belief that the doctrine
for which we contend was clear and
definite; that it was founded upon
substantial considerations and invol
ved our safety and welfare; that it
was founded upon substantial con
siderations and involved our safety
and welfare: that it was fully appli
cable to our present conditions and
to the state of the world's progress,
and that it was directly related to
the pending controversy and without
any conviction as tbe final n trits of
the dispute, but anxious to learn in
a satisfactory and conclusive maimer
whether Great Britain sought, under
a claim of boundary, to extend her
possessions on this continent without
right, or whether she merely sought
possession of territory fairly included
within her lines of ownership, this
C overnment proposed to the govern
ment of Great Britain a resort to
arbitration as the proper means for
settling the question, to the end that
a vexatious boundary dispute between
the two couutries might be deter
mined and our exact standing and
relation in respect to the controversy
might be made clear.
"It will be seen from the corres
pondence herewith submitted that
this proposition has been declined by
the Briiish government upon grounds
which, in the communications, seem
to me to far froja satisfactory. It is
deeply disappoii ing that such an ap.
peal, actuated by the most friendly
feelings towards both nations directly
concerned, addressed to the sense of
justice and to the magnanimity of
one of the great powers of the world,
and tou-hing its relations to one
comparatively wak and small, should
have produced no better results.
E3F0KCED OCK DEMAND.
"Tho course to be pursued by
this Government, iu view of the
present condition, does not appear
to admit of serious doubt. Having
labored faithfully for many years to
induce Great Britain to submit this
dispute to impartial arbitration, and
having been now finally appraised of
her re'uaal to do so, nothing remains
but to accept the situaticr, tj ie?og,
nizo its plain requirement, and deal
with it accordingly. Great Britain's
present proposition has. never thus
far been regarded as admissible by
Venezuela, though any adjustment
cf the boundary which that country
may deem for her advantage and may
enter into of her own free will, can
not, of course, bo objected to by the
United States.
"Assuming, however, that the at
titude tf Venezuela will remain un
changed, tho dispute Las reaehed
such a fettles ?s to make it now in
cumbeit upon tbe United States to
take measures to determine with suf
ficient certainty for its justification
what is the true divisional lino be
tween the Republic of Venezuela and
British Guiana. The inquiry to that
d should, of course, be conducted
carefully and judicially, and due
weight should be given to all avail
able evidence, records and facts in
support of the claims of both parties.
OUR HOSOn AT STAKE.
In order that such an examination
should be prosecuted in a thorough
and satisfactory manner, I suggest
that the Congress make au adequate
appropriation for the expenses of it
commission, to be appointed by the
Executive, who should make the
necessary investigation and report
upou the matter with the least pos
sible delay. When such report is
made and accepted it will, in my
opinion, be the duty of the United
States to resist by every means in its
power, as wilful aggression upon its
rights and interests, the appropria
tion by Great Britain of any lauds or
the exercise of any governmental
jurisdiction over any territory which,
after investigation, we have deter
mined for rigbt belong to Venezuela.
"In making these recommendations
I am fully alive to the responsibility
incurred, and keenly realizo all the
consequences that may follow.
"I am nevertheless firm in my con
viction that, while it is a pricvous
;hiug to contemplate the two English
speaking people of the world as being
otherwise had friendly competitors
in the onward march of civilization,
and strenuous and worthy rivals in
all tho arts of peace, there is no cal
amity which a great nation can in
vite such equals that which follows a
supine submission to wrong ond in
justice, and the consequent loss cf
national self respect and honor, be
ntath which is shielded and defended
a people's Fafwtv and greatness
