Telephone m”fl . WHY THE MONROE DOCTRINES®? MERICANS of this generation, whose knowledge of existing monarchies is derived from the current history of those which we know best, are sometimes at a loss to account for the 1 extreme bitterness against monarchy that was felt at our revolutionary period, and was indoctrinated by the writings of Jefferson and the publicists of his generation. This is to | be accounted for by the change that has come over monarchy itself. A hundred and thirty years | ago the doctrine of the divine right of kings was still flourishing. It had been put out of focus in Great Britain by the convention of 1688, which changed the dynasty and succession to the throne, but elsewhere in Europe it was flourishing as stoutly as on that Christmas day in the year 800 when Charlemagne assumed the world’s imperial crown with the declaration “God gives it.” From 1776 down to the appearance of the Monroe doctrine monarchy was identified with England had groaned and lost her best blood by the secret workings France had seen every principle of right trampled and every instinct of hu- manity violated by lettres de cachet and the Bastile. The bloody traditions of the Venetian Council of Ten and the Bridge of Sighs were still fresh. All that the aspitation for human liberty can suffer and survive had been suffered and every sorrow that absolutism could bririg to man had been the j | rule of ages. It was monarchy and religious superstition that penned,the Jew in the Ghetto and the Judenstrasse, and the two, hunting in couples, had restrz man reason, until rebellion against both had become a duty and martyrdom a privilege. The institutipns which sheltered these black and abhorrent crimes against humanity were, by the Monroe doctrine, denied further expansion in this hemisphere. | and see monarchy restrained by constitutional linfiitations everywhere in Europe, except in Russia and | Turkey, see in operation a rule which was then an exception, and may well pride themselves upon | the effect of our example in a world in which we stoo. alone when Jefferson declared for the in- ed political freedom and the rights of hi- Americans who look abroad now This change in no wise abates our determinatio:: that the Monroe doctrine shall stand against monarchy in its modern as well as in its ancient forny. But while we so insist, it behooves us to ex amine our hemisphere and see the work needed to expel from it the practices that made monarchy ! | abhorrent which are now common in the Latin-American states, which, though republican in form, | | are as absolute in practice as the France of Louis XI or the Naples of Bomba. Let it be remembered that our fathers objected to monarchy because of its form and administration. | ment in form is worse than monarchy when its administration renews the practices of absolutism. The American press and people should not be diverted from their duty by looking upon the shadow of absolutism in Europe and overlooking its substance in the Latin-American states. { Americans have noted that the people of Venezuela have been rather calm under blockade and The heated protests have come from the foreign residents. i spondents are beginning to furnish the reason. Under Castro and his predecessors have been prac- ticed all the atrocities, the robbery, torture,.murder and infamy that made European meonarchy | | a stench in the American nostril in 1776. The victims tell their story freely. One cultured Venezue- lan, l1ong kept in a solitary dungeon as a political prisoner, says: “I stood poor food, lack of medi- cines, no news from my family and the irons that cut into my flesh, but the worst was deprivation of .books and newspapers and entire isolation from the world outside my filthy dungeon, and nothing but my own thoughts and no sound but my own voice and the noise of my irons. President Castro, not because he kept me two years near the brink of the grave, but because he kept - | Republican govern- American press corre- I can never forgive ‘Another young man was dragged from his wedding feast, accused of being an acquaintance of ane of Castro’s enemies. He was kept for two years in the subterranean dungeons of Fort San Car- Heavy irons were welded on his bare ankles, which tut away the flesh and caused ulcers which * | cripple him for life. When these first appeared the irons were removed. As soon as they healed new irons weighing fifty pounds were welded on him. A Prematurely aged and permanently disabled, this gentleman who was ‘arrested as a blithe bridegroom was released a'hogeless wreck, and, as he said, “wondering if there is a just God.” ; General Pilar Medina, an eminent patriot, died while in solitary confinement-and-in chains in San Cdrlos, and begged that he be buried in the irons and chains that were not removed in his last sickness or the hour of his death. The list of victims is long and the details are the same sickening . In other of tliose states there is the same ahsqlutism and horrible cruelty. In Salvador when a political prisoner was scourged in prison, though the constitution forbids scourging a prisoner, his poor wife's appeal to the law was answered by the President: “La ley! Yo spy la ley”—“The law! [hefore devarred by the fact that the syn- uestra HOLDING HIM TO IT. ENATOR EMMONS!' attempt to evade the responsibility of making a report on the investi- gation of the Pilot Commission scandals was very properly defeated by the Senate. The dis- agreeable and disgraceful features of the position in which he finds himself are the results of -his own scheming and his own works. “There was a plain and straight path of duty before him. Of his owqn will he chose to turn aside from that path, and if he now finds himself bewildered and lost amid bogs of chicanery and intri_gue he has none but himself {o blame. Moreover, the path of duty is still within sight and easy reach. He can go back to it if he.will. When the inquiry bégan evidence to sustain the charges of The Call was promptly submitted. It was clear, emphatic and convincing. . It included among other testimony that of one of the Commis- sioners, who confessed to having taken $4250 for the appointment of a pilot and dividing if equally with his colleagues. The testimony of other witnesses cosroborated that of the confessing Commis- sioner, and thus every point of the charge was fully sustained. £ It was open to Senator Emmons to report to the Senate the findings of the committee, with propes. recommendations. He chose not to do so. On the contrary, he began seeking for a means of exonerating one of the Pilqt Commissioners from the guilt of the transaction. From that moment he has been involved in confusion and perplexity. The intricate and tortuous path he has trod has led him into a position from which he sées no honorable escape. Fearful alike of going ahead or turn- ing back or even standing still, he has sought to get rid of the whole thing by resigning. have been but a poor evasion had such eseape been conceded him, and since it has been denied the position of the Senator is bad zndeed. s : ( Standing thus amid the bogs of intsigue and double dealing into which his folly has led him, the Senator, in his embarrassment, has los¢ his head and his temper, his manners and his courage. His address to the Senate on the question of persona} privilege was anything but a vindication of his course. - Partly a bluster and partly a whine, it amounted to nothing. The only distinct feature in it was a plea for permission to retire, and that was refused. That his pesition is a dubious one is his It would own fault, and the Senate has done no more than justice to all concerned by holding him to it. The orator who addressed the Sons of the Revolution in New York on Washington's birth- day said: “We look upon Washington as a great general, but the correctness of thas estimate may be questioneil ; he is also regarded as a great statesman, but it is 2 question how much of what was ac- complished is due to him and how much to others; but that he was one among the few finest gentle- men that ever lived there is no possible chance for a difference of opinion.” That settles it. The latest New York novelty is the discovery by the police that an entertainment announced as “a lecture to ifien only” was really a prize-fight. It has long been known, of course, that there is a close relation between pugilism and talk, but the advertisement of a fight as a lecture is decidedly It is now announced that Macedonia has an army of 4000 men, and when we recall the strength of the armies of the nations round about we may conclude at once that the Macedonian upris- ing will be immediately follpwed by sitting down again., (c) GRAND OPERA-HOUSE TO BE GIDEN OUER !

With a dramatizaiion of Tolato «Resurrection,” now belng given in Paris, in London, in New York with Blanche Walsh and Joseph °‘Haworth and in Brooklyn with Elita Proctor Otis, the Re- public Theater will' close next week its somewhat turbulent dramatic career. In the part of Tolsoi's peasant heroine the Republic will present Miss Virginia Drew Trescott, who makes her first appear- ance of this engagement this afternoon in another new play, “Lord Strathmore,” a | dramatization of Ouida's novel of the name by Miss Virna Woods. With “Lord Strathmors"" Miss Woods, who is a Cali- bow as a playwright to a local audience: Miss Trescott brings with her a New York company for the play’s exposition come along. After next week's “Resurrection” the Republic will inaugurate a new policy, by which it is hoped to settle the fortunes of the cozy playhouse. Up to now the Re- public has been a largely superfluous quan- tity in the local theatrical bill, in spite of the many good things that the theater has offered. The variety of its fare has contributed to its failure, one going there unprepazad being likely to find any- drama, melodrama and tbe whole range in between as possibilities programe purposed the Republic will change all this and in a permanent bill, something that the other theaters do not give, and with Dick Jose as a promise of that should find a ready market. DR The California has a fifteen-week en- gagement of those good and useful play- ers, the Neill Company, on its list for the forthcoming season. As always, Mr. Neill will see to it that there are some of the best novelties of the year in his repertoire, and his name is guarantee for their intelligent and conscientious pro- ductich. The Neills are among the most welcome people that come this way. The California will also contribute to the Shakespearean programme, in pre- senting that thoughtful actor, Charles B. Hanford, in the “Taming of the Shrew" and .Afuch Ado About Nothing.” “Much Ado About Nothing” has not been seen here for many years, and from Mr. Han- ford's intelligent work on his last appear- ance here with Kathryn Kidder, should be a notable production.
