The Temper of the American People in Not for War, bat They Will Be Victorious if It Comes, Senator Allen addressed the Senate to- day on the Monroe doctrine resolution. He contended that the Monroe doctrine was simply one of national self-preservation, and said that if the invasion of the South American republics by Great Britain will endanger the welfare or menace the safety of this government in any way, we should apply this doctrine and resent Her action with all the strength and resources of a mighty nation. We must be the exclusive judges of when the doctrine is to be ap- plied. We cannot, he maintained, permit Great Britain or any other foreign power to determine when and to what extent the acquisition of territory on the western hemisphere will imperil our government. He thought, however, that it would be ample time to act when the Venezuelan commission shall have reported, and said: If This Government in imperiled. “If we shall then determine that the ac- tion of Great Britain in acquiring territory in Venezuela will imperil our government by imperiling the rights of Venezuela; it will become our duty to marshal all the re- sources of our people to resist the threat- ened or actual invasion. If, on the other hand, we shall determine, after due investi- gation and deliberation, that our interests will not be imperiled, it will be our duty to abstain from any interference with the action of Great Britain. I feel confident, however, that the dispute over the bound- ary line between Venezuela and British Guiana is not for the primary purpose of obtaining territory, but fur the purpose of gaining control of the Orincco river, which leads into one of the richest portions cf South America. If this be true, it will be our duty to repel the aggressive action of that nation.” Mr. Allen warned the Venezuelans against becoming over-elated at the attitude of this country, and deprecated the idea of plunging England and the United States into a deadly conflict, though England should be given to understand, in a manner that cannot be mistaken, that the honor and interests of our country will be pre- served at all hazards and under al) cir- cumstances, even though it may take every man and exhaust all the resources of this nation to defend them. Continuing in this connection, he said: “The threatened demolition of Englaad and the English institutions that we have heard in this chamber is not real; there is ne danger from foes without. We have simply been indulging in the harmiess pastime of twisting the caudal appendage of the British lion to arouse a war spirit in the breasts of our people, and thus in- duce them to forget their grievances and their wrongs. No Danger of War. “We mistake the temper of the American people. They krow full well that there Is no danger of our becoming involved in a war with England, or with any other for- eign power. They do noi seek war, and I cannot condemn in too severe terms the lack of confidence in the sober judgment, the intelligence and patriotism of the Amer- ican people that has led at least one Sen- ator in this chamber to assert that a large pcrticr of them wouid welcome war and bloodshed &s8 a relief from their present conditions. “Much eloquent denunciation of England and the English system of forcible coloni- sation has een indutged tn fn this chamber within the last few weeks, but they are as sounding brass and tinkling cymbals— “Full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.” “Florid language nas been used, and a willingness to die for the country has been expressed when there is not the slightest likelihood of being called upon to make the sacrifice, but these will not meet the situa- tion nor solve the problem. We must meet this question in the serene and pure at- mosphere of a cold philosophy that ri high above the dust and smoke and clouds of mere contending words. If, after we have tried this, the sky line is not visible: if the clouds of war should still gather and threaten to deluge our beloved country with blood, then let our elocuence speak from a thousand battle ships that skim. the seas and ten thousand cannons that will wake the ethoes of the world. But if It Should Come. “If, unhappily, the time shall come, which God grant it may not, that. Ameri- can valor must again be displayed on the field of battle in deferse of American in- Btitutions and against foreign greed and aggrandizement, we may confidently ex- pect the sons cf America to march under the flag of the free, consecrated by the blocd of a hundred years, to permanent and glorious victory. Then, for every Grant there will be a Lee; for every Sherman, a Johnston; for every Thomas, a Jackson; for eve Sheridan, a Stuart, and Mason and Dixon’s line will be blotted from the map of tre United States, and true Ameri- cans, north and south, welded by the blood of the revolution, the war of 1812, and the war with Mexico, renewed by the estrange- ment of 181, as lovers renew and intensify their affection by estrangement, soothed ard sustained by a united and splendid American womanhood, will give to the world a lesson in valor that it has never known before.” ee THEIR RIGHT TO ENTER. Important Question Relating to Water” Inspectors. Complaint has been filed in the Police |) Court against J. T. Clements, the George- town undertaker, under the law which makes it a misdemeanor to obstruct the water inspector, Inspector Mash being the prosecuting witness. Today the case was called in the Police Court, and the defend- ant was represented by Mr. Campbell Ca: rington. He said he desired to contest the case on a question of constitutional right. Several years ago, he said, a similar com- plaint was made against Mr. Clements, and the case was taken to the upper court, where it was decided in Mr. Clements’ fa- vor. Mr. Clements, he said, makes no denial of the facts. He refused to allow the in- spector in his house, telling him that he had yeung daughters in the house, and also usirg the language of Judge Bingham when he disposed of the other case. Mr. Carrington called the court's attention to the fact that policemen are not permitted to enter the houses of citizens without the necessary legal papers. It appeared that Judge Bingham had de- cided the other case ably to Mr. Clem- ents because the law was not applicable to Georgetown, and Mr. Carrington said he thought the judge's language was suifi- cient to snow how he felt about the other question involved. Judge Kimball said he thought so import- ant a constitutional question should not be decided by an inferior court, and so far as he was concerned, he thought the question should be decided by the upper court. Mr. Carrington announced that he would take the case to the upper court, and in order to give him time to prepare the nec- essary papers, a continuance until week was granted. oS Sonora and Seriland. Prof. W. J. McGee of the bureau of Amer- ican ethnclogy will lecture before the Na- tional Geographic Society at Metzerott |! Hall tonight on “Sonora and Seriland,” where he recently led an expedition. Southwestern Arizona and western Sonora (Mexico) comprise one of the most arid dis- tricts of North America. A part of this dis- trict is occupied by the Papago Indians, pre-eminently the desert tribe of our do- main. South of the Papago country lies the land of the Seri Indians, partly in continent- al Sonora, partly on Tiburon and adjacent islands in the Gulf of California. These In- diaas have been known for two centuries as warlike and treacherous, and during all this period they have protected their do- minion against invasion. During the recent expedition the territory of the tribe was thoroughly explored and mapped for the first time by white men. The lecturer will describe the interesting country occupied by the Seri and portray incidents of the ex- ploration; the lantern illustrations represent the mountains, deserts and peculiar flora, as well as the Seri Indians and their habi- tations, photographed for the first time by the lecturer. next |) In some conditions the gain from the use of SCOTT’S EMULSION of Cod-liver Oil israpid.

He Attacked jously a Horse Its Rider. Fiftcen deys ago in the Smithsonian grounds Mr. Joseph Orange of Ni 8 Sth street southeast figured in a desperate Struggle with a bull dog. He was riding a horse at the time of the savage attack, and the animal, as well as the rider, was so badly injured that medical treatment was necessary. Mr. Orange is still under treat- ment ard eo is his horse. This morning he appeared in. the Police Court and told Judge Kimball the story of the conflict. The case came in court because Mr. Orange complained against Mr. Andrew J. Lewis f No. 1114 Maryland avenue southwest, Neged owner of the vicious canine, as being the owner of a dangerous dog.
