GREAT BRITAIN'S RESENTMENT
Plainly Shown and Cleveland'
Mossngo flops Not Set Well.
London, Dee. 18. In splto of the
pronilnonoo all tbo English news
papers glyo President Cleveland's
message to congress on the Venezuelan
boundary question, tho general publlo
rofusofl to get excited or oven Interested.
Thoso who read tbe correspondence
resent President Cleveland's attltnde,
but tho almost invariable answer
received to inquiries for expression of
opinion Is, "What is it all about,
nnywav?" Tho messago, however, was
bolng used on tho stock exohaugo to
hammer American securities. Consols
declined but there was no excltoment.
One newspaper remarked: "Yankee
jobbers nre tho only persona Injured by
the inessngo and they hayo Just ground
for complaint." Tho radical evening
newspapers tako tho most serious view
of tho situation. Editorially, the Star
remarks: "It la diffloult to exaggerate
the gravity of tho situation. The
United Btatcs may be assured that
Englishmen, regardless of party, will
abldo firmly by Lord Salisbury's claim
and will not submit 10 bounce."
"Publio Opinion" says the West
minister Gazetto, "will unanimously
Bupport L-rd Salisbury but It is a pity
he enlarged tho dispute by attaoklng
the Mocroo doctilno."

Chicago, Dee. 18. In response to
the Record's inquires to governors for
their opinions ou tho president's
Venezuela message, Governor Lord, of
Oregon, says: "If tho Monroe doctrlue

did not tako up tho Venezuelan matter
directly. Senator Hill offered a resolu

soldlors and Chandler and othe sena

for tbe national defenso. No action
was taken ou them.

asseitlon of (he Monroe doctrine as
to the Venezuelan boundary dispute
Tho eenato will no doubt follow sult.as
Its approbation on tbe display of tbo
executive backbone was plainly shown
Tuesday when tbe message was read.
Congress will stand to Mr. Cleveland's
back, and tbo American people will
back both tbe president and congress
for the stand they have taken.
Tho Oregonlan Intimates that tbe
president has aoted for mere political
buncombe, ills words cannot be cou.

president deservo tbe warmest sup
