THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. THE EVENING STAR WASHINGTON. THURSDAY.........December 19, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES.. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- culation of the other W: «ton dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. t7In order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any individual connceted wi he office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- ments, necording to tenor or purpose. Endorse the Monroe Doctrine Now. This is an excellent season for Congress to give to the Menrge doctrine that formal and official sanction that up to this time it has lacked. There have been many occasions when the doctrine has received the practical indorsement of the natioral legislature, but the fact remains that it has never been approved in the form of enactments and so has never gone upon the statute books of the country. It is now proposed in the Sen- ate to amend the resolution which yesterday passed the House appropriating $100,000 for the purpese of the boundary commission suggested by President Cleveland, by Insert- ing a formal announcement of the Monroe doctrine and én indorsement of its principles ll thus supply the defect of many years. Any other amendments, however. might be unwise. It will be tmpolitic to stipulate as to the manner of appointing the commission or to place a limit of time within which the report should be submit- ted. In supporting the President in his firm Geclaration of policy, Congress should place no restrictions upon him nor should it imply any suspicion of his patriotism or complete sincerity by indicating a desire to scrutinize his appointments or dictate the length of time which the commission would have at its service. The duty proposed to be intrust- ed to this body is of the gravest consequen and on its findings may hinge the fate of nations. It would therefore be the height of indiscretion to insist that it should be lim- ited in time or to seek to make party capital out of the method of the appointment of its meibers. In this matter, as in all others affecting international relations, the admin- istration must be taken to represent the people of the United States, and the two houses of Congress, acting in a similar capacity, should give their hearty support to the executive when he has assumed ane| American position that ts sustained by his- tory and by fact. —— Unnecessary Annoyances. It is sincerely to be hoped that the present muddie over the location of a garbage cre- matory in the northwestern section of the city will result In an overhauling of the entire matter by Congress and the adoption ofas 1 that will cause the establishment of a first-class reduction Plant outside of the city Hmits. The local authorities should now be able to see very clearly that as long as the plan of urban establishments is followed there will be continual protesting on the part of the citi- zens, and possibly discriminations against certain sections that will surely lead to bitter antagonism. The people of the north- east and of Capitol Hill are now apprehen- it is said, lest they should next be thrown Into a ferment cf agitation from this same cause, and, indeed, the reasons for locating a crematory in either or both of these sections are as strong as these which have resulted In the establishment of the southern and northwest plants. There is, in fact, no need for any of these city establishments, and if the garbage were properly collected in air-tight recep- tacles it might be carried to a single point on the District line farthest removed from the center of collection and give a minimum of offense to the people. It cannot reason- ebly be urged that these separate estab- lishments are necessary, In the light of the experience of other cities. They are rather for the benefit of the contractor than the cltizens. If the collection is so imperfect as to scatter foul odors throughout the ci the remedy does not He in neighborhood Plants, but in better methods of collection. —_—_ + + = ____ A Flexible Boundary Line. Let us imagine that some British miners have colonized In our Alaskan gold fields; that upon this fact England bases a claim to ownership of the property under an ex- tended Canadian boundary; that our mili- tary strength is as feeble as that of Vene- zuela; that England marks as her boundary a line which includes our gold fields, and says to us, Lelpless to fight, “I will arbi- trate as to the ownership of all the rest of your property, but up to that lire is mine beyond question. I cannot submit to arbitration the extrava- gant claims of Russia in the last and the present century, which if sustained would remove my colonist-rainers from under my own admirable rule to the unsettled and disorganized jurisdiction of Alaska-and to the government of ‘a turbulent and unruly People.’ * Under those conditions we would feel as Venezuela does. It is unsafe to per- mit the establishment in South America of the precedent of a flexible, extensible, not-to-be-arbitrated boundary line, laid down by successive seizures, and confirmed by occupation. It may be applied sooner or later in North America. —_—__ + «+ -___ Lord Salisbury in his reply to Secretary Olney in the Venezuelan matter refers to the “extrayogant pretensions of Spanish officials in the last century” in contemptu- ous style as though these pretensions are not entitled to as much consideration oy an arbitrator as the equally presumptuous pretensions of the British under modern surveys. It is all pretension, anyhow, and remains such until the case is settled by war or peaceful adjudication. ee ee This government's attitude toward Euro- pean powers in this continent is distinctly that of forbearance, not of aggression. The consideration which has been shown Spain in her attitude toward Cuba is too recent a cause of comment and criticism to permit any question of this proposition. — ¢- ———_ Mr. Yerkes transported his art treasures from Chicago to New York in drawing room cars, and, according to the invoices up to date, succeeded in getting everything past the porters. ———_++-+__-_ The True Scope of American Inter- vention. Foreign newspapers, commenting on the Venezuelan matter, appear to ignore or to misinterpret the true scope and meaning of the President's position as outlined in bis message of Tuesday. They give the impression that the President has under- taken to place the United States in a posi- tion of standing sponsor for all that the South American nations may do or at- tempt, whereas, in fact, Mr. Cleveland's po- sition, and doubtless that of the entire country, is that the United States will In- tervene only when territorial acquisitions are threatened or involved. No nation can afford to become a guardian for smaller powers to the full extent of such a respon- sibility. The United States has never sought to uphold the nations of the south- ern continent in their disputes with the powers of Europe over affairs that have no bearing upon boundaries or territory. In the Nicaraguan matter the United States withdrew its threat of intervention when the dispute with England was brought down to a merely personal detail of repa- ration for {njuries. In the present case’ the claim for indemnity urged by England against Venezuela distinctly involves the entire territorial question. The English po- @ition ig quite characteristic. The British colonists have been encouraged by home government to occupy a tract of country that has been in dispute for many years, and as a result some of them have ‘suffered indignities at the hands of the Venezuelan government, which honestly believes that the Englishmen are tres- passers, and has treated them accordingly. For this alleged offense Great Britain serves a bill for $60,000 damages, and still holds the land. If the Venezuelans pay the indemnity they practically admit that the British had the right to occupy the dis- puted country. If they refuse, the British still have the territory. It is this fact of territorial ocevpation that makes the present case so aggravating to America. President Cleveland has plainly indicated that the United States views with suspicion England's continued encroachments in Venezuela and her re- fusal to submit the whole question without restriction to arbitration. If the dispute between England and Venezuela were the result of unwarranted aggressions by Venezuela, impudent assertions of right without foundations of fact, or deliberate disregard of international equity by the small republic, the case would be wholly different, aud intervention by the United States would be presumptuous and fool- hardy. — 2 —__—__ In Cane of War: In comparing the naval strength of the United States with that of Great Britain it appears to be generally overlooked that in case of war the entire naval force of the United States could be utilized for the pur- pose of defense or offerse, as the case might be, and while the coast line of the United States is of extraordinary length, thus requiring an unusual amount of r time preparation, the navy of Great Br is subject to extensive demands for the pro- tection of her valuable commercial interests in all parts of the world. In short, it wouid be impossible for her to concentrate all of her great naval strength in operations against the United States, for this wouid leave exposed some dozen important points in different quarters of the globe where Eng- lish interests are paramount. To relinquish the watchful vigilance over these outposts mad2 necessary by her colonizing policy would be to expose her to attacks from pow- ers that are inimical to her interests and jealous of her wide possessions, Yet thes facts do not warrant the complete reliance of the United States upon existing maritime forces in case of trouble. If war is seriously contemplated, or becomes an actual pro bility, the first duty of this government will be to equip itself in a modern fashion and to call in all the natural resources in which the country is so rich today. —— Ambassador Bayard may have expressed cnly an honest opirion of conditions in the United States, but Great Britain has so many of her own natives who are willing to come to this ccuntry and discover defects that efforts in that direction were superflu- ous from him. ——————__ + e+ _____ President Crespo of Venezuela has a habit of summoning his ministers for consultation at day-break. This practice emphasizes the impression that Lord Salisbury will have to get up very early to carry through his pres- ent enterprise, —_—__o--. —______. The approval of the President's course has come remarkably near being unani- mous. The incident has shown the ease with which the American public obliterates party lines when the occasion arises. a Great Britain, by persisting in its Vene- uelan contention, has been eminently suc- cessful in temporarily removing its friend, Mr. Bayard, els close, Cane inspection. See Sir Henry aie probably, regards this tal of fight with Great Britain as a direct slap at the box-olfice receipts of his Amer- ican tour. ee It looks as if Secretary Carlisle and some of the couniry's’ other financiers did not, study the same arithmetic, ———. -~+ ee Jf the British lion does not want his tail twisted, he should be careful how he switches. 2 2 There were only one hundred and fifteen men at work on the city post-ollice today. Nothing Unusual. “What's all this talk about the United said the London citizen, was the answer, “it is alieged that this country is trying to acquire ter- ritory that it has no right to, and——" “Dear me.

No more we'll chase the canvas back; ‘The greenback's now our game. Paternai Advice. “Micky,” said Mr. Dolan to his son, “Oi do be afraid ye're gettin’ to be a dude.” “I hope not.” “Well, Oi've noticed yez wearin’ yer Sun- day clothes the week trough, an’ that ye gave up yer job in the blacksmith shop. Ot want to say, widout harrum till any- body's feelin’s, that it'll do yez no hurt to be rollin’ up yer sleeves more an’ yer trous- ers less.” A Strong Argument. The building biocks had been having a dispute in the nursery. “I'm worth just as much as you are,” ex- claimed the letter H. “No, you're not,” replied the letter G. “If you were worth anything at all the English would never drop you.” Even at Last. said the excessively new “new ‘I do not wish to hurt your feel- ings, but——” “What is it?" he asked, apprehensively. ‘ou will doubtless purchase a Christ- mas present for me before long.” “Yes. I had thought of —” “Well, please don’t try to buy me neck- ties or cigarettes. They are two things that a man should never risk his judgment on.” And Harold thought of the way he had talked to her in years gone by, and sat in humble acquiescence. The Solemn Sequel. There comes a spectre to each feast. A shadow hovers near The holidays, where all seems praise And hope and love and cheer. A haunting dread there is that lurks Amid the holly spray; A sullen doubt which clings about ‘The grace of Christmas day. Hail to the gentle festival!— Yet will I own to you, Though men reprove, I cannot love The day the bills fall due. + e+ - Duties of the Hour. From the New York Sun. Not an hour should be lost in placing our navy'on the strongest possible footing, through the swift completion of vessels on the stocks and through the purchase of foreign iron-clads. The extension and im- provement of the fortitications of our chief seaports ought to be pushed night and day. The immediate adaptation of our military organization to the requirements of sudden and considerable expansion will not, of course, be overlooked. —- ¢-—____. Must Assert Her Rights. From the Philadelphia Ledger.
