WHAT AMERICANS SAT
Unanimous in Upholding the
Monroe Doctrine.
WAR IS NOT EXPECTED, HOWEVER
Neither Nation Is Prepared for War and
Neither TVlthes One Notable In
stances of British" A egres
sion Recalled.
Tkske Hadtk, Dec. 19. Ex-Secretary
jof the navy R. W. Thompson, in com
menting on the president's message to
congress, said that be does not think
there is a remote chance of war with.
England.' There is no probaDility of the
two English-speaking peoples of 'the
world going to war about a little strip of
territory alongside of Venezuela.
"It will be a -war of diplomacy." he
said., "Both countries will demand an
exhibition'cf power and purpose, but
the controversy will be settled -by
peaceful methods. Neither nation is
prepared to go to war, and neither wants
a war as a result of this quarrel over a
boundary line. It is not necessary for
either to fight to show that it is not
cowardly. Each knows the other will
fight, but each is too far advanced in
civilization to be the aggressor in bring
ing on a war on such provocation." ;'
Colonel Thompson said one phase of
the question presented itself to his mind
which would probably open up a pro
longed discussion. The country had
never affirmed the Monroe doctrine and
given notice to other nations. So far
the .doctrine is merely the doctrine of
President Monroe: While it is accepted
everywhere as expressing our position
4n regard to the encroachment of foreign
powers on the ' American continent, it
has not been given the force of congres
sional affirmation. England may say
she had never been; notified of the inten
tion of the people of the United States
to maintain the position of protesting
against the acquirement of territory of.
Europeau nations on the American
continent." . ' ' ---
. . GUBERNATORIAL MESSAGES.
All Uphold the Enforcement of the
Monroe Doctrine.
Chicago, Dec. 19. The following
messages were received by a local paper
in response to requests sent the gover
nors to give their opinions of the presi
dent's message.
"The president's Venezuelan message,
in my opinion? answers the position of
Salisbury that the Monroe doctrine does
not apply to the Venezuelan dispute,
and expresses the position of Americans
Whether the appointing of a commission
to ascertain the facts is wise, is for those
powers to determine. To the people the
desideratum is that the idea contained
in the Monroe doctrine' shall' prevail
under all the varying conditions of all
times and circumstances. The doctrine
is a principle the establishment of which
is necessary to the welfare otitis nation,
and should be asserted and maintained
even at the terrible cost of war. '
"Albert W. M'Intybb.
"Governor of Colorado."
"Massachusetts will undoubtedly
strongly support the president on the
Venezuelan question.
" F. T. Gefenhalge,
; '" "Governor."- .
"The people of this state will uphold
measures looking to the enforcement of
the Monroe doctrine.
"G. C. Sheldon,
"Governor of South Dakota."
"I believe our-people will honestly
approve the patriotic spirit of the presi
pent without reference to political or
any other classification, and confidently
except a peaceful and honorable adjust
ment of the controversy;
' . Vinent Coffin,
"Governor of Connecticut."

It Is All Right.
Milwaukee, Dec. 19. In discussing
President Cleveland's message, Gover
nor Upham said : ' " .
"I think it is all right. I indorse the
Monroe doctrine,' and think it should be
maintained." As to the manner in which
this difficulty might be settled, I think
there , is. a question, and perhaps the
president was a little unfortunate in the
ground he took. I think this govern
ment should show a friendly interest to
ward Venezuela and assist her by all
lawful and legitimate means. I think
there will be no hostilities Tne most
civilized nations in the world can settle
their" disputes' by arbitration. There
will be no need of a resort to arms."
Nebraska Will Support Rim.
; LisooLjr7Keb.', Dec- 19. The follow
ing message has been sent to President
Cleveland:.
"In your firm stand favoring the en
forcement of the principles of the Mon
roe doctrine you have the warm support
of the people of Nebraska.
"Silva8 Holcomb, Governor."
Sentenced to Death.
Albany, Or., Dec. 19. At 11:30 today
Lloyd Montgomery, the murderer of his
father and mother and Daniel P. Mc
Kercher, was brought into court, it be
ing the time fixed 'or - his sentence.
Counsel for the defense filed the usual
motion for a new trial, which was, of
course, denied. ' . .
The court then asked the defendent's
counsel if he bad any legal reason other
than, that urged in his motion for a new
trial. -
"He replied ' ' Jf b, your "honor." ""
' The court then addressed the prisoner,
causing him to stand up, and pro
nounced the following sentence: ' ' "T '
"It is the judgement of ' the law in
pursuance of your trial and conviction,
that you be taken hence and confined in
the ' county jail until the day fixed or
your execution, that you be then taken
from the jail and there suffer the punish
ment of death by being hanged by the
neck until you are dead, and may God
have mercy on your soul." . --
The prisoner turned pale at these
words,, but exhibited wonderful nerve
and sat down quietly. Those who bad
expected the murderer would make a
statement were dissapointed, for not' a
word was spoken to him, his attorneys
saying he was too nervous today to try
to say anything, but they think he will
before the date of his execution make an
open confession. '
The warrant for the execution dtliv
ered by the court 'to the eheriff, fixes
January 31, 1896, as the date for his ex
ecution. ' '
