      It Wants But One .Man'to Commit A Murder...

      be bawled loud enough in their ears . We are not going to discuss here the merits of Mr . Monroe ' s teaching , but it amounts to this : the moral and social interests of the world are divided by the—Atlantic ; outrage committed on one side of the ocean must never look for punishment from the other . Involved in

      this monstrous retrograde assumption are several other propositions as amusing as they are striking . But when thirty-two millions of men lay claim to the absolute espionage of a continent geographically representing half the world , and lay claim to it , too , on no better grounds than those of a diseased national

      vanity and an insatiable national greed , they must be regarded as outlaws in the great international republic of mankind . Were the noisy supporters of Monroe principles to act up to them , they would have a prodigious task before them . England would have to be driven from Canada to-morrow , and war

      levied against nearly the whole of the continent from Hudson ' s Bay to Cape Horn . Fortunately , the States are not equal to the consistency . The police of the world are too strong for the socialist—that is , if the police will only interfere . Europe saw the other day what the Monroe doctrine meant in Mexico , and

      has had leisure to appreciate the miserable character of principles which would see a country given up to bloodshed , plunder , and ruin , rather than it should owe order , peace , and prosperity to . a European power . America was successful in her machinations , against France , and the result is a disgrace to the civilized ;

      world . Let it be hoped , not only for the sake of European honour , but , above all , in the interests of international integrity that she will be kept at arms' length from Cuba . She could crush Spain without an effort , and pocket the Pearl of the Antilles easily enough ; but she could also be kept

      under the eye of the police . A war would be undesirable , but it would not cost Europe inuch to read America a lesson she should not forget for a hundred years .
