The discussion hat - assumed various phases. The arrangement made by the President . for the collection of custom duties in Santo Domingo it one and per haps the most acuta phase. The send ing of delegates to the Morocco Con ference it another. These two events and some recent interpretations of the Monroe doctrine as made by President Roosevelt and Secretary ' Taft have brought that historic policy agiin to the front. The powers of the President In foreign matters and the constitutional powers of the Senate have been involved in the discussion. And, finally, the de cision of the Democratic Senators to take caucus action against the Santo Domingo treaty, and the revolt from the caucus of Senator Patterson, of Colorado, have created something like a political sensa tion. The Santo Domingo treaty was nego tiated by the President and placed be fere the Senate last year. That body adjourn ed without 'action and the treaty, there fore, remained pending. . Shortly after the adjournment of the Senate, the President received a cablegram which may become historic. In the usual eco nomical verbiage of cablegra-ns, it in formed the President that the Santo Domingo Government, under tbi pressure of , foreign creditors and of domestic peril, offered to place in charge of the custom-houses in its Southern porta and in four Northern ports a citizen of the United States, under whose administra tion of the customs 46 per cant, of the money was to go to the Dominican Gov ernment and 65 per cent, to be deposited in New York for distribution among the nation's creditors after ratification of the pending treaty. The creditors were e or practically all willing to accept such an arrangement It was made. Presi dent Roosevelt "nominated" for receiver of the dutiee Colonel George R. Colton, a retired officer of the United States army, He was appointed by President Morales, and he entered upon hie duties. The arrangement is one somewhat similar to that provided for in the pending treaty. but there . are . differences. Senator Spooner thinks the differences are im portant Senator Tillman thinks they are unimportant and charges the Presi dent with usurpation of power in making such an arrangement when the treaty wae still pending. Many cities of the Northwest are taking an unusal interest in those things that work for the permanent beautifying of their cities. The basic principle however being cleanliness. ' ucn actions are worthy of emulation and La Grande could stand a movement along these linee as well as other cities. . . ,. ; There is a bill before the Ohio legisla ture to empower physicians with the authority to take life, in such cases where in their judgement there is no hope for the patient, and death would be a blessing. No doubt the author of the bill was prompted with the most humanta- rian motives and there are many such cases where the execution of such law would undoubtedly be a blessing, but nevertheless .we doubt the wisdom of ii i! ,ftcH Improves trie flavor and adds to the health fulness of the food. granting power to any, to take life, for too many cases Innocent life would be sacrificed when large financial interests would be involved by the passing away of the deceased.
