TUESDAY'S MESSAGE
The Sensation it Created Not
; Yet Subsiding.
AMERICANS PLEASED WITH IT
Comment or English Papers Tbe View
of Number of American Gov
ernors Senators Who
Approve It.
London, Dec. 18. In spite of the
prominence all the newspapers give
President Cleveland's message to
congress on the Venezuelan boundary
question, the general public refuses to
get excited, or even interested. Those
who read . the correspondence" re9ent
President Cleveland's attitude, but al
most the invariable answer received ; to
inquires for an expression of opinion is,
"What is it allabout, anyway?"
The message, however, was being used
on the stock exchange to hammer Amer
ican securities. Consols declined, but
there was no excitement. One news
paper remarked : , ;
"The Yankee jobbers are the only per
sons injured by the message, and they
nave just grounds for complaint.'
The editorial comments of the New
York World and the New York Evening
Post on the situation are reprinted here
with approval, "a9 indicating American
opinion. " The radical evening news
papers take the most serious view of the
situation ; Editorially,-' the Star re
marke: -
"It is difficult to exaggerate the grav
ity of the situation. The United States
may be assured that Englishmen regard
less of party, will abide firmly by Lord
Salisbury's claim, and will hot submit
to a bounce." -
'Public opinion," says the Westmin
ister Gazette, "will unanimously sup
port Lord Salisbury, but it is a pity . he
enlarged , the dispute by attacking the
Monroe doctrine."
A dose that is always seasonable is a
dose of Simmons Liver Regulator, the
"King of Liver Medicines." It keeps the
liver active; the bowels regular; pre
vents, Biliousness; and promotes diges
tion. In fact helps keep you well. "I
have watched its effects in familes where
I have practiced, and find it admirable;
both alternative and tonic in its actian."
Dr. T. W. Mason, Macon, Ga.

MEETS WITH . APritOVAL
Governors of Various States Support
'r Cleveland's Views. v
Chicago, 'Dec.18. The following
messages were received , by the Record
In response to requests t.o governors to
give their opinions of the president's
message: " . . ;
; Carson, Nev. Not vigorons enough.
Nevada people are strong supporters of
the Monroe doctrine in its entirety:
J. E. Jokes, Governor.
bALEM, Or, If the Monroe doctrine is
a principle of vital force in this country.
President Cleveland deals rightly in his
message with the Venezuelan question.
.William P. Lord, Governor.
Jackson, Miss. I believe President
Cleveland's Venezuelan message ' is
sound and statesmanlike, and I fully apt
prove it. r ' '
J. M. Stone, Governor.
. Atlanta, Ga. The president's mess
age it a correct interpretation of the
Monro9 doctrine, . and thn Venezuelan
question furnishes a case which calN
for its enforcement. The people of
Georgia will approve of the mesBuge ol
the president. -
..w . C Atkinson, Governor
Richmond, Va. It is etrong, pointed
and direct, and can leave no doubt as to
his position.' It is characteristic of the
man, courageous, and truly American.
There will be no retreat on his part.
The Monroe doctrine is' the very wool
and web of the policy upon the mainte
nance of which ' depends our safety
against European aggrandizement and
the greed"' and avarice of European
powers. -.'."
Chablks O'Febbell, Governor.
land's message is sound and American.
Congress should take his advise and
give the country practical Monroe doc
trine, and make it international law if
it is not. W. C. Oates," Governor. '
Bublington, Vt. President Cleve
land's message is unmietakeable in
tone, and will undoubtedly meet with
the approval of the United States with
out regard "to party. ' I consider It an act
of hostility to the., United States : for
Great Britaiu to attempt to' acquire
more territory on this continent, and we
must vigorously assert' out rights and
prevent it.' ' ' '
W. F. Woodbuby, Governor.
Boise, Idaho I am proud of the man
ner in which the president has declared
his Americanism. " The people of Idaho
will support him in 'the field, if need be,
n maintaining the position he has tak

Of course much depends upon' what the
commission which we are to send to
Venezuela shall report." . . .
Mesgre Has
American Ring.
Cincinnatti, Dec. 18. The papers toi
day publish short interviews on Cleve
land's message. Among those inter
viewed was ex-Governor Foraker, who
said:
"Yes, Cleveland's message has the
true American ring." -'
"What if it brings war?"
"I don't care if it does. I always be
lieved in the Monroe doctrine."
This but faintly expresses the general
feeling here.
Senators Approve It.
Washington, Dec. 18. Following are
a few of the many opinions in the same
line expressed by United States sena
tors:" . Senator Davis, republican member of
the committee on foreign relations "I
think tho president has risen to an op
portunity such as has not been presented
to any president In many years. In
language of great'dignity, power and ac
curacy, he has stated the Monroe doc
trine as understood by the American
people for ,70 year." -: ; V
Senator Gorman "It is a warlike

"CaBtoria Is to well adapted to children that

as it has invariably produced beneflcial remits."
Edwth F. Pardbe, M. D.,

"The nse of 'Castoria Is so universal and
Its merits fo well known that It reams a work of
supererogation to endorse It. Few are the In
