•‘A FIRM ADHERENCE TO CORRECT PRINCIPLES.”
Senator Billee Chandler is very much in favor of the President’s Venezuela policy, in fact he is en thusiastic, and if he will only wait till the proper time he can pe mustered into active service. President Cleveland's Venezue*lan message is the most aggressive definition of the Monroe doctrine that has ever been uttered by an American president. It took the wiud out of the sails of the “jingoes.” if the Republicans are at all anxious to raice more revenues they should begin at once by i. - creasing the tax on liquois, beer and tobacco, and levying a tax on incomes. Superfluous wealth should pay its proportion.
The Indianapolis Journal says that President Cleveland’s message in connection with Secretary Olney’s note to Lord Salisbury, of July last, constitute the clearest exposition and strongest assertion of the Monroe doctrine that has ever been made, and commit the government fully and unequivocally to its maintenance. Bob Ingersoll, republican, thinks Mr. Cleveland acted with too much Baste in the Venezuela affair; Calico Charley Foster thinks he was ♦oo slow. In taking issue with the administration in its efforts to maintain an established principle the opposition should remember the political fate of Tom Corwin, who bitterly opposed ihe war with Mexico. Queen Victoria, it is said, is very much incensed at the course of Lord Salisbury in refusing to arbitrate the Venezuelan boundory dispute. Her plea is for peace with the United States. The wiser heads 4a Great Biitaiu do not want a war with the United States, but that is what will happen unless England withdraws her claim to Venezuela territory.
Senator Turpie, in bis speech defending the couiseof the president in enforcing the Monroe doctrine, said: “To surrender this policy now would be to abandon at once our duty and destiny. It would be to deny the faith in that great American doctrine which we have for seventy years maintained, nnd which we have in manv instances vindicated and nforced. It may cost us much to sustain this policy; it would cost us more not to do so.” ■ ■ «. • There is now more than $70,000,000 in the United States treasury, but it is not go.d, and can be used for no otheri purpose than to meet the ordinary obligations of the government What is needed is legislation ihat will keep the gold reserve to the limit reqivred by law. Mr. Cleveland sent in a message explaining what he believed necessary to be done, but instead of proceeding on the line mapped out, the Reed congress* went to work to increase the reve* nues of the rich and the burdens of the poor.
Ex-Congreasman Holman is much pleased with the President’s Venezuelan message. Great Britain would yield all of Biitish Guiana before she would risk a war with the United States, hesa’s. He thinks a war would result in the utter annihilation of the British government, tne subjugation and annexation cf Canada, and the independence of Ireland. Before the war concluded, he thinks, there would be a treaty of closer alliance between all the governments of the western hemisphere, aud the I’nited States wo’d be recognized as the central power, with all the sister republics more or less dependent upon her.

Sterling R, Holt hae been elected Chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee.— As we have a Sterlipg Holt on the situatioi, now let us on to victory. — —* JaspertCounty Maps on Sale at Long’s.

Where Trouble Began.
At the end of bis first term President Cleveland left a yearly suis plus of over $70,000,000, a treasury surplus of more than that, and $97,000,000 in gold above the SIOO,'M)0,000 reserve. When the Democrats returned to power after four years of the Harrison Reed regime, the ap* propriations had amounted to a billion dollars, the revenue had been cut down $88,000,000,»and the surplus was gone, and the gold reserve was so near the point of impairment that Secretary Foster had ordered bond plates prepared in anticipation of a loan, the necessity for which, however, he managed to pass over to his Democratic successor.
Thomas Jefferson was second to Washington only in the love of his countrymen. He was ast tesmau and the best type of an American . He said in 1808 that a main object of the United States “must be to exclude aJ 1 European influence in this hemisphere,” That was fifteen jears before the promulgation of the Monroe doctrine.In 1823, when President Monroe asked Jefterson’s advice about enunciating the doctrine, Jefferson said: “Our first and fundamental maxim should be never to entangle oui selves in the broils of Europe. Our second, never to suffer Europe to intermeddle with cisatlantic affairs.”
Good Americans.
Methinks we’ve heard it said that Democrats are not good Americans. History the assertion. Jefferson, the author of the most God-like declaration that ever emanated from the mind of man, was a Democrat. Monroe, who was the first to enunciate the doctrine that foreign interference in American affairs, should be considered an act of hostility, was also a Democrat. Jackson, the hero of Ne v Orleans and the most aggressive president (that ever served the people, was a Democrat. James K. Polk, during whose administration the Mexican war was fought, was a Democrat. Grover Cleveland, whose interpretation of the Monroe doctrine is so plain, so aggressive ard so soundly American, is a Democrat. The Americanism of Democrats has been questioned because thev will not subscribe to the infernally unfair system us protection—a system th t next to human slavery is most to be despised. Wherever you find a man wno believes in equal rights and eqqal opportunities—in individualism rather than paternalism—you wiß
The Business Man’s Statement. La Fayette, Ind., May 2,1894. JCyM Mediant <b., Indianapolit, Ind.: Gentlemen— lt is with pleasure that I can conscientiously say a good word for LYON’S SEVEN WONDERS. For more than a year I was troubled with indigestion and stomach disorders. Various remedies which I tried gave me no relief, until one day last summer I was told by a brother drummer of the virtues of LYON’S SEVEN WONDERS. I concluded to try it, and am happy to say one box, costing only one dollar,entirely cured me. To those who suffer aa I did I would strongly advise them to use LYON’S SEVEN WONDERS. Yours truly, John R. Spencer, State Agent Royal Baking Powder Company.
find a Democrat and a true blue American. In all the conflicts of the past in which the spirit of true Americanism has been manifested, Democrats have been the leaders. The Pharos refers to these mats ters to remind people of what constitutes Americanism and to refute the oft repeated assertion that Democrats are not good Americans because they are opposed to that system of human slavery known as protection.—Logansport Pharos.
More Ass Than Lion.
The destructive ability of a bull in a china shop has passed into a proverb. The world has evidence of the asinine folly of John Bull in what is practically a china shop of his own. The United States are a debtor nation. They could not have carried forward the tremendous en , terprises ot all kinds which have marked their progress were 'hey not a borrower. They have borrowed largely from the accumu lated capital of Great Britain, a nation that having beet much wi ser than the United States in the matter of trade relations with the world has become much richer than the United States. John Bull is very much like an Indian upon the plains, who thinks to accomplish a great result by stampeding horses. The Indian, however, is andeavoring to stamSede somebody else’s horses, while ohn Bull is frightening horses of his own.
The raid on the New York Stock Exchange upon all of American secnrities is a raid started in Lombard street. Downing street tipped the wink to Lombard, and Lombard understanding that the old tory wants to stampede Americans and frighten them on the side of the almighty dollar, bears down prices and the loser is—nobody but John Bull himself. The dunderheads of Great Britain seem to have forgotten one impoitant fact, namely, that in recent vears British money has been placed in the United Htates notin its bonds alone nor in its lines of transportation, but also in large lines of industrial properties not heretofc re ventured} upon by such capital. Take Chicago for instance.— Who owns the stock yards in Chicago? British capitalists. Who owns the major number of grain elevators? British capitalists Who have made consolidations of certain local packing interests?— British capitalists. Who own a large number of Chicago brewer„ ies? British capitalists.
It does not seem to have occurred to these gentlemen on the other side of the water who think to play smart wPh America that British property lies right here subject in the event of hostilities to seizure. Appearances indicate that British capital in banking interests in this country contributed to the utmost of its ability to promote John Bull’s panic in Wall street. It is entirely within the power of the United Stages to order branches of foreign banks out of the country. They ought to go themselves if they show such hostili y to the people and the institu ions of the country that has given them profitable support. Juf- t as soon as the congress of the United States puts an end to the means whereby the treasury of th 3 United States can be called upon for gold and the notes used in procuring the gold can be had anew from the treasury for th? same purpose just that soon John Bull will discover that he has been more of an ass than a lion in his dealings with America, and that in any event he has by his attemp: at a panic in Wall street hurt his own pocket morh than the pocke ; of any one else.—Chicago Chronicle.

ARMENIA.
A meeting for the purpose of expressing sympathy with the suf. fenng people of Armenia, and protesting against their persecution,is called for next Sunday afternoon, at 2:30, at the M. E. Church. All the pastors in town may o confidently expected; and all the churches, it is to be hoped, will be represented. The public generally is cordially i vited. It is a matter of interest that the only two democrats elected to the presidency since the war have been stanch supporters ot the Monroe doctrine. Mr. Tilden was no less emphatic in this line than Mr. Cleveland is. Ten years ago Mr. Tilden engaged- in a special effort for the strengthening of our seas coast defenses, and a large amount of the work tnat has been done in that line since then may fairly be taken as the indirect result of his agitation of the question.—lndiauapolis Sentinel.
The adoption of a SI,OOO license law in Philadelphia in 1888 reduced the number of saloons in the city from 5,773 to 1,343. This vear the licenses granted reach 1,670, yielding an income to the city of $1,670,000. A naturalist who sewed bits of red silk to swallows caught in England, identified one of the same birds in the neighborhood of the pyramids. With regard to sparking over ;he front gate, a good deal can be said on both sides.—Texas Siftings.
