The New York World very properly says that “no European country Which does not intend to declare weir ou :tie United States w(U attempt to violate the Monroe doctrine, but there Is noth in* m the Monroe doctrine to prevent South American countries from getting soundly whipped when they deserve it. This Is tihoir affair, not ours.” The dispatches reponied yesterday re ported that u British Beet had entered the harbor of Coitmto, Nicaragua, and would seize the custom house and col lect the Import du-Mes until the British (Salsa against Nicaragua for the troit- ment of Consul Hutch Is satisfied. There Is no question about this being a hlglhdsanded way of iron ting Nica ragua. It Is adopted by Great Britain In preference to declaring war on that country. The British government, In effeot, says to Nicaragua, “you arc 'too amt:ill end conieinplIiNo to make war on, Wt you have seized and imptfs- oned one of my olftohils, wilthout Just o.i use, treating him with great cruelty, end I mma to punish you for your act. I wilt do it by making you pay a con- sidor-altilo amount of money, and if you wtU nok pay willingly I will squoczc It oil* of you.” We do not see anything in tills act that violates the Monroe doctrine. The United States did no* undertake to pro*nett the hnlf-toattnnou* countries of Central America, whore such a thing as orderly and rvsponsUitu government Is hardly known, from the conse quences of their bad acts. If It were to undertake to do such a thing it would, in the first place, keep itself oonstan ly In trouble, and, In Ibe sec ond, It would In effect Issue a license to every • Bipnlsh-t-Vipetlf an adret* turer who hid seized upon a govern ment to rob and murder at his pleas ure all foreigners he might find la the oountry. The tMbnroe dbdtrlne, as we under stood li, was not iha*ed primarily on a tlerfre on the part of the United States to serve the Intercuts of these htalf-bakeil republics, bat I s own. At the Bine K was ad<qittxl as a rule of conduit by our government, there was serious (Unger of European aarrcaslon on tb s continent European monunrhs had not bectmie aoouts:otmul to the Idea that people had a right to govern them selves. They resented the existence of rttpifMtai on this continent, as sc: ting a trad example to the tpeoplc of Europe. The United States government, there fore, wus obliged to Issue the warning lhat, If Eu raped u ntonarehs inanlfiwted their hosttllMy to rtapUblicun govern ment on this oontrlnent by Hiking steps calculated to break It (1 twit, titty must count on the opposition of the United States. Ah tve have sad, our govern ment, Id doing this, was seeking pri marily to protect our own republic. The danger of European aggression is lera now than then in the proportion thit repaid es have Justified their ex istence tn the poular mind of the world, and also in the propnrttton that the Strength of tho Uoi'ed Suites has increased. It is still the duty of the United States government to protect the republic ngu'nst European a at res- son that threatens nrther tin existence or Its prosperity, but that duty cannot bo stratrbed so far ns to ptit the army, the navy and the wealth of the United States nt tho service of SpanlsbaAtner- loan «dvcu urnrn who, having seized control of their own countries by force of arms, proceed ho harry foreigners who may have c residence in those countries. Oar govomtnont oneiKl com mit ao graver crime than <o Involve this country in war with Croat Britain In 4 quarrel strlcb has no better cause than the dofeuse of Nuusnigua front the consesiuisiois of her Ind acts. It Is our opinion that Nicaragua and all other Central and South American re- pubHort, so culled, but wtfieh are ch'efly distinguished by the fact that tbo peo ple ha eo no voice in the government, should be taught that though their own citizens may have oo rights, yet for ego era have rights which must be re spected. HOME tlEEKEUri’ EXCURSION HATES. Never before in (be history of the South has this country been so thor oughly Wen adrccttsAl as It !* at the present rime. Tho result Is u very de cide! Improredon that the Sou h Is a good thing and the men. who have been karpinc their money In the North have about made up their at nils to shift their tnreaturents. I; is said tliat s nijvcutcot Is ou foot to abolish die laud seekers' excursion rates to tho South. We sincerely (hope that If t he railroads are seriously ttxmnltdering 'this stop they will giro Who matter modt mature thought before they ao:. Of course the railroads know theft own business best, but whHe they poBBiWy Miink that peo- plo will come anyway, and itfb.iit there fore «hey have a right to toko advan tage of the sttuatlou, wc cannot help tbiuMng that many pecple who are merely prospectors will be lost to the South by Ibis somewha t dbort-rtghted policy. Capital Is prwapociting. If It Is given »i»pontuni!ty to prospect at rc- duoud raitca lit twill mere readily oome and. once here, wo believe that li will remain. When the people of the North and West come down hero and Investtgute, looking' Into the conditions that ouu»e so much Inemtt In the South; when they realize how gladly our people wel come the betlter class of Immigrants, they util be satcisfied thlat there la good cause for all that is being said, am! will either tody properly a* once or re turn home, sell WMat they (have and move to tho South. We hope tthatt ithe land seekers’ ex cursion rates will not be taken off. iMAtm' IS A GOOD TOWN. Under the heading “Macon Not a Bad Town,” (Mr. Dupont Guemy takes up the cudgels and hits the croaker and tthe pettenilst some Irani wraps. Wo are glad of It. The geuiiUmntt can bit hard, and we don't o.tre bow hard he hits uhe gnuanfbler who thas been suoh a nuisance for tb’e ktdt two year*. Hae croaker has no friends. He deserves no mercy, die ought to be inconti- utVimV cast down and "dimiyped" out of existence. Mr. Guerry makes an appeal for the 'truth, the wholo 'truth ami nothing but the iruth, about iMtioon. The Telegraph bas endeavored to be omsorvativcly truthful tn all tts staltemxtls, nnd it now goets fun her titan (Mr. Guerry and says without hesitation that Macon, comparatively speaking, is a good town; tbo record shows uhnt It 1s a good town and i s people—'Who are not Inclined to be hypercritical and avho have tnkeu *he trouble to compare Ma con as a itown with other towns hav ing like cotmWtions-are prepared to bear wit iu*»t tBhat 'Macon is a good town.

''Macon is a good town—God Mess her." THE FIGHT FOR HONEST MONEY The men who believe In a safe and sound currency have heretofore un doubtedly utMien-f-i lie i the free sil ver movement. It seemed impsulltle to them that any very large number of voteni could bo ltd to believe that na’lonal prosperity can be founded upon a semi-repudiation not, or that u currency fluctuating In value and dif ferent tn character from that employed by other civilized nations Is desiriMe. Their mistake was undoUbedly due to a failure to appreciate the disturb ing Influence on men's minds cf tbo extreme d.pnwslon tn business which has ehioterized the last four or five years. Men who suffer acutely are nor *pt to bo reosuoable, but (ibis fact was fongottea. Now, however, tho frtendb of sound money—and (hey are.

In the Sooth they hsve been re strained by Hie hope that Che free nil- v-r movement, like tho greenback mov-msut, which it so g;.aUy rentm- bles, would die n natural death, with out having done tho Dnnwra io party mucti harm. IWr they begin to re alize that the Democratic party Is no longer dear to those who differ with tlmm In opinion on the currency ques tion, and that unless the movau -nt to ward flat money Is checked the fu ture has nothing in store for the par- tty but defcab-and nothing fir the country but dhhonor and dlscr dlt THE RVSTEItiN PHAJOB TREATY.
