As 10eMother Vaed to Do Xt.
He criticised her puddings and he found
fault with her cake,
He wished she'd make such biscuits as
his mother used to make;
She didn't wash the disheii, and she
didn't make a stow,
Nor even mend his stockings, as his
mother used to do.
His mother had six children, but by
night her work was done,
His wife seemed drudging always, yet
she only had the one.
ills mother always was well dressed, his
wife would be so too,
If only she would manage as his mother
used to do.
Ah, wellI she was not perfect, tho' she
tried her best,
Until at length she thought her time had
come to have a rest;
So when one day he went the same old
rigmarole all through
She turned and boxed his ears, Just as
his mother used to do.
HRE'S THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
A LUCID EXPLANATION OF THlE
VENEZUELA QUESTION.
Senator Lodge Makes a Strong His
torical Argumuent in Defunce of'
Our Position.
Hon. Henry Cabot Lodge, (Rep.)
Senator from Massachusotts, ad
dressed the Senato on the subject of
the Monroe doctrine. He said it wa.
not his intention to speak until the
joint resolution introduced by him
giving to the declaration inado by Mr.
Monroe in his message of Decemb-r,
1823, the formal sanction of Congriss
had received the consideration of t
Committee on Foreign Rolatio ns.
But since then the President had sent
in his message on the Venezuelan
difficulty and Congress without a dis
senting voice had authorized the com
mission which the President request
ed. This action had led to much wild
talk and cries more vocal than nuiner
ous from those who believe we hiould
never do anything to clash with Ei .
land's interests. This outcry eoupod
with London's attempt to frightn
Congresa by producing a stock pa ic
had tended to confuse the issue.
therefore, thought a little cool ex ph i a
tion would not be out of place.
Two cardinal principles, le! aiLd, ! 'd
always governed the United sultesti inl
their relations with forcigin nati .
The first was WaslinlgtoI's notlao oty
dloctrine aS laid( dowIn inl tle fL'r
address. The socond was the .\ onroo
doctrine, the history of which lie traced
in detail. The only attempt hereto
fore made by outside powers to break
through that doctrine was the joint in
tervention of lngland. France and
Spain in Mexico in 1861. A. second
case has now arisen, and the main
tenance of theMonroe doctrine is agair
threatened as It was by the F1rench in
1862. This second attack upon thc
principles of tho Monroe doctrinc
comes from Great Britian and is imadc
under cover of a boundary disput(
with Venezuela. In ordor to Ahow thi
importance of this controversy whiel
had now reached a crisis affecting mos
gravely the honor, the Interests, thi
rights, and the well-settled policy c
the United States, he sketched "brilly,
as he said, but with elaboraito dotali:
the history of thO (isputo betwee
Great Bcitain and Venezuela and <
the negotiations between the two com
tries.
He continued as follows: "It wi
be observed from this brief outline
the dispute, that no new righte has
come to England or to Venezuela sin<
1814, i. c., since the declaration
President Monroe. They have ti
rights of Spain and Holland, respe
tivoly, nothing more, and nothing les
and are entitled to exactly what tho
inherited rights give thomn. In 1836
British ministor acknowledged the
P-oint Biarima belonged to Venozuol.
andl asked the Venezuela goernmer
to erect a~ light houro there. In .i84(
a British court in Denmara declarme
the territory of the Moroco, far to th
east of tue Orinoco, to be Venezuelal
tei ritory. in 1841 an English engince
laid out a perfectly arbitrary lin
running from the mouth of the Orinoe
in a southerly direction until
reached the southern boundary<
British Guiana. Lord Aberdeen di
avowed this line and proposeud anothe
starting at the River Moroco at:
going fur-ther' into the interior ; Los
Granville proposed another reach in
further to the west ; Lord Rosebei
another inside the scha~mburgk lin
but coupled with the fe-ce naviga.i<
of the Orinoco. In 18913, he propos<
a second line, and meantime Lui
Salisbury had extended the Britis
claim while he was secretary h
foreign affairs. Every British mirimi
ter offered a different line with.j
which Great Britain would not consLI
to arbitrate, and every British miiine
ter has gone boyonti his prodcessh
In making fresh claims to teorritor
beyond the line which he ohfered aboui
which he would arbitrate. At hi re
sig ht this seems to denote inconsit
tency on the piart of the Biitish govern
ment, but in reality their course ha
been just, the revorse. There is ap
parently just as much support, for oin
line as another when they i-a- bevo,,
the valley of the Esseqiui bo. iroi
Schomburgk down every line was cn
K tireoly arbitrary, and tihe constan
growing claims beyond thoe vocon
lines offered was in entire kepin,
with the policy of the British grxu ed
ment. Their object was to g-t
much new territory as they co. u.
- the matter' ever camne to a secttioner
which they have used every arthieco
delay."
Asserting his belief that Great 1ik
ain had no good claim to a foot of I am
-beyond to Essequibo, Mr. L o iai
down the principle that if lEng land
with no authority but a (dispuated claim
seized the territory and declined air
bitration upon It, her action does nAo
*differ from seizing and holding now~
territory in the Americas by right of
conquest. The seizure of this South
Amnerican territory by Eng laind, he
Asserted, was an absolute violation of
the Monroe doctrine.
At the last session of Congress, said
Mr. Lodge, I called the attention of
to Senate and of the country, to the
o.ner in which England had absorb
the islands of the P~acific and to the
~essity of cur controlling the Ha
na Islands, a necessity which now
los more pressing with each sue
g day. I ask you now I look at
0aribbianSea. I ask you to note
strong navalestation which England
established p St. Lucia. Follow
nd Trindad thedevep njnoai whc
has been strongly pushed of late years,
then Jamaica and finally British Rni
American coast. This territory claim,
od from Venaezuela ia being pushe(
eadiy tothewestward along ta
ast, anid the point at" which it arta
ithe control of the mouth of .th<
*'Qnoco, onc of the great river system
6f South America. The purpose of al
oane movement. is wrtn pl inly ..
the maps. If successful, they wil
give Great Britain control of th<
Spanish main and make the Carrib
bean Sea little better tkan a Britisi
lake.
He concluded as follows: "Wt
have seen British forces at Corinto
We know the attitude they assume il
Venezuela. They are attempting tt
take land on the Alaskan boundary
They have just denounced the modu

perilous dispute of the northeastert
fisheries. it is not by accident tha1
these events have all occurred or all
come to an acute stage within the past
year. They are not due to us, for we
have committed no aggreassion upon
anybody. Of all those diffilulties
which are now upon us, the most im
portant is that involved in the dispute
with Venezuela. They toll us that
this territory is remote and worthless.
It is remote, porhaus, but it is not
w( .thless, for if it~ had boen, the
Venezuelan possession of it would be
undisturbed. But it matters not
whether it is worthless or valuahle.
Thu toa tax was trivial but our fore
fathers refused to pay it becauso it
involved a great principle, and the
attempt to collect it cost Great Brit
ain her North American colonies.
The American peoplo believe today
just as firmly in the principle of the
Monroe Doctrine. They doem It

and their interests as a nation and they
a proparod to dofond it when it Is
assailed.
"Mr. President, who is responsible
r the unhappily strained rotations
betwoon England and the United
States ? As I have poIntod out, we
have not been the aggressors on any of
the points now in dispute, whether in
Alaska or Venezuola.
"What then, has strained our rela
tions? The poromiptory refusal to ar
hitrate this question of boandary.
Who gave that refusal ? Great Brit
ain. We have appointed a committeo,
not to abritrato between Great 3ritain
aid Vonezulht, but to inform us, after
careful investigation, what tho true
divisional lin, in tholtr opinion, should
he. Who has drawn an arbitrary line
of boundary and declared that they
should not arbitrate to the east of it ?
Not the United States, but Great
Britain. Ultimlatumifi are what strain
relations, and they have come from
Great Britian and not from us. I be
ilove that this question will be peace
fully settled by the good sonse of the
reprosentatives of Fungland and the
United States, but I am very clear
that, suh s ttleiment can onily be
reached by action on the part of
Congress and of the Prcsident which
shill i be as temperato ats it is flirmi, and
which sha ll maintain the Monroe
Doc'.rino wherevor it justly applies.
Tiat doctriio is ats imtportant to us as
the blalaneu of power is to l'urope, and
those who maintain the latter must

Americans and protects them from the

In the courao of Mr. Lodge's histori
cal rOview of the Vonaz.'.uolan boun(lary
question, ho was asked by Mr. Hill
whether Venezuela had over, at anV
time, refused a"'traton.
" Never," Mr. Lodgrte replied.
" I refer to that," Mr. HIlI explain

"I never met," Mr. Lodge sai
" ' with any instance in which Vom~

y'ears, tihe first of January coming Il
midsummer. The Mohamodans navy
just such a calendar. Any date.wit.
them goes through all tihe' reasons 1I
abiout thirty-two years.
Prievious to the time of Julius Cousar
the Rtomans usedl substantially thi
same system as the Mohammedan
now use, the piesthlood and maiigie
trates adding days In an irrtegulai
muanner so as to keep tile monlths 11
the prtop~er seasonis.
Daits got into such a hopoless con
fus Ion th at Julius Camr, with th<
help of the astronomert, Sosigencs
saw there was no way out of thme con
fusion but to form a now calendar
and that it Was useless to try to mnak<
the month a divisor of the year'. Thia
new calenldar, which was called the
.Julan, made tile year 365 1-4 days
Three years weroe given 3(65, while th<
fourth was given 366 days. TIls extr
day was added by counting twice till
sixth day before the calonds, or' flrst
of Mar'ch, hence the name bissextilt
for leap year.
Julius per'petuated his glory by call
Ing tile fifth month, as It was then,
" July."
Augustus, his successor, not to be
outdone, stole a day from 2 bruar3
and added it to the following *nonth,
calling the tnonth August. Ills month
hadto e ai1-ng as Jiwsius's.
TheJultanCalendar, as It Is called
was,-'bt far, the best one that had
been used. Its fault is that it made
the year longer by about 11 1-4 min
uten than the equinoctial year, which
gover'ns the seasons. According to
I hs mnode of reckoning time, though
I forred to the seasons was very slow,
yet after a good many centuries it
became quite considerable. In 1582
L the date of the vernal equinox had
fallen back to the 11th of Maroh, in
i stead of coming on the 21st as it had
twelve centuries previous. This error
would have gone on increasing, and
o after a sufflcient lapse of time we
, would have had Christmas celebrated
in summer and the fourth of July in
winter. Our days would have ad
vanced with referienuo to the seasons
in the same way as the Mohammedan's
back, except our change would have
been very much slower. The dif
forence between the equinoctial year
and the one of the Julian calendar in
400 years amounts to 3 days 2 hours
and 27 minutes.
Pope Gregory XIII, acting under
the advice of the astronomer Clavius
decreed that the century year, instead
of being leap year, as under the old
system, should be only so when divisi
ble by 400. Thus 1600 and 2000 are
leap year, while 1700, 1800 and 1900
are not. This adjusts the three days
of the time mentioned above, and
leaves a discrepancy of only 2 hours
and 27 minutes for every 400 years.
Ac rding to this calendai it will Lake
some 4,000 years to th row the seasonIs
and days of the month out as much as
one day. Four thousand years f -om
now the vernal equinox, according to
this, the Gregorian calendar, will
have fallen back from the 21st of
March to the 20th.
Moreover, Gregory, to have the
seasons fall as they had twelve con
turios before, ordered the day follow
ing October 4th, 1582, to be called the
15th Instead of the 6th, restoring the
ton days that had been lost. All
Catholle countries adopted the Grogo
rain calendar at once, but IEngland
being Protestant and Russia being
Greek, did not. With characteristic
slowness in adopting anything foreign,
England changed the Julian for the
Gregorian in 1752.
By an Act of Parliament, the day
following September 2d was to h)
called September 14th, Instead of tho
3rd. At the same time the year was
to begin with tic first of January in
stead of with the twenty-Ii fth of March,
as it ))reviously had. The modified
calendar is known, in English history
as the New Style, while the old sys
tem is called the old Style.
Although Parliament was very cau
tions to nake the cleven days added
work no prejudico to debtors, yet tho
chango caused riot in various parts of
Lmngland. The peoplo said they were
beinrig robbed of eleven days.
All the civilized counties now uso
the Gregorian calendar with the ex
Ception of Russia, which still uses the
Julian, and, a a consequence, tho lat
ter country is twelvo days behind the
rest of the world.

TH3R REPUBLIOANS ARE MOVING.
The Webster State Comitiftee Issues
an Address-A convention Ordered
for Apral.
The Webster faction of the Repub
ioans met last week in Columbia. and
issued an address which sets forth
their position as a faction and their
grievances aso i, political organiza
tion. The address is as follows:
We, the execurive committee of the
Union Republican party of South Car
olina, send gretings to our party of
the nation and our follow Republicans
of South Carolina.
First: We congratulate this nation
on the splendid victories achieved at
the ballot box in November last.
Second : Wo congratulate the na
tion in having overthrown the Dono
oratic party, the old enemy of all that
is progressivo and useful in the State
of North Carolina, Maryland, Ken
tucky and West Virginia, and thereby
breaking the " Solid South " which
had bon heretofore cemented by
fraud, corruption and violonco at the
ballot-box.
We congratulate the nation upon
having restored to the leadership of
our party in the lower 11110 of Caon
gross that matchless and pati-lotic
statesman, Hon. Thomas 13. 1ted, of
Maine.
Wt pledge our faith to the mrinci
pies of the party of Lincoln, S!umter
and Grant, and renow our plodge to
the principles laid down in the plat
form of the Republican party at the
national convention of 1812.
In the last general election we made
a strong fight for the election of Ito
publican Congressmen, in six of the
seven districts in the State, but under
the operation of the infamous registra
tion law, thousands of Riopublicans
wro i llegally prevented from voting.
Under instruction of this committee
the roection of theso voters, through
this Infamous and unconstItutional
registration law, wvas mialo the basis
of contests in four of the districts of
the State. The itepubliban contest
ants in the first, thir(l, sixth and
seventh districts arc on every ground
of justico and equity entitled to thLur'
seats.
The seating of these contestants
would strcngthen, and encourage the
IU(publicanm party of South Carolina
and be bm, taray just~icu to those w bo,
under difliculties and discouragemeLts
which can not be fully appreciated 'y
our friends In the North, have endeav
ored to hold ill) the bannor of Republi
canism in South Carolina.
A now condition is now upon us.
New necessities now arise. Nev laws
are now in force. New lessons mumm,,
now be learned. Wickedly and fraud
ulently as was this now constitution
thrust upon the )eople of the State,
still More wickedly and fraudulently
is the Purposo of the promoters of this
scheme to enforco it. To enforce it
not with the view of preserving white
supremacy as is falsely proclaimed,
but with the purpose of stilling the
will of the people in the oxercise of
the (unctions of citizenship, the sclec
tion of their public servants, to pre
serve the close corporation which now
parcels out the oflices in the State and
perpetuate themselves in power and
place.
Soon the books of registration will
be open in every county in the State,
and every citizen twenty-one years of
age and upwards must register, and
those who have been registered must
be registered in order to vote hereafter
in the public elections in this State,
whether Federal, State or municipal.
We urge Upon every citizen the imp)or
tance of possessing himself with a
copy of the new constitutio-1 and care
fully studying it in order to know the
new requtirements and mneet them.

We urge upon evory citizen a peace
able but firm resistance to every en

high places or those in low places, for,
indoed, there is no one in this govern

Do not allow yourselves to be dis
couraged by delays and annoyances.
but go to the places of registration and
peaceably and patiently wait, out per
sistently and manfully demand your
certificate, and exhaust all lawful

citizen who now has a registration
certificate is advised and admonished
by this committee of the Union Repub
lican party to pr cserve and retain said
certificate of registration and permit
no person or persons under any provo
cation or for any cause to take away or
destroy said certificate of registration.
Lot overy citizen keep his certifloato
by all means, for there is no law to
compol him to surronder his old cer
tificate to any person or persons in the
State of South Carolina.
Under the constitution recently
adopted it is intended that the Legis
laturo shall pass laws providing for a
new registration in each county of the
Stato; after the Legislature shall have
passed the now registration laws for
the State your committOO will issue
another addross to each and every
county chairman of the Union Repub
lican party of the Stato directing the
voters how they shall act and what
must be done by each and every one of
them1 to secure their certificatos of
registration and their right to vote.
W e call the attention of the people
of the nation to the gross violation of
the spirit and letter of the constitu

constitutional convention of South
Carolina by its acts of discrimination
against the citizens of the State in
relation to their rights to vote in the
