IHE COLOMBIAN REVOLT.
1t Has Assumed a More Serious As- pect Since the Concentration
 On the Isthmus.
AGGRESSIVE ACTION IS LOOKED FOR
A Noticeable Feature is the Actual and Moral Support the Liberals Are Receiving From Venezuela, Ecuador and Nicaragua-COIOm- bia in Financial Straits.

Colon, Colombia, Aug. 24, via Kings ton, Jamaica, Aug. 26.-The censor ship prevents the transmission of po- litical news or news unfavorable to the government.
 The revolt of the liberal Colombian rebels, now two years old, lately as- sumed a more serious aspect by the liberals concentrating on the isthmus. It is believed they are contemplating aggressive action. Consequently, un- easiness prevails at Panama, the lib- eral objective, which was nearly cap tured year ago. It is not believed the rebels will molest the railroad or interrupt traffic. The recent rebel raids along the railroad amounted to bloodless raiding and the robbery of Chinese storekeepers, which the pres ence of few government troops stopped. There is a report that the government is bringing troops to pro- tect the isthmus. This, will be diff cult, without exposing to rebel at- tacks the points whence they are taken. The area of the revolt is eX- | tenSiye

A Noticeable Feature.

A noticeable, distinguishing feature of the revolution is the actual, moral support the liberals are receiving from Venezuela, Ecuador and Nica- ragua, in which countries liberal gov ernments prevail. Colombia's govern- ment is not popularwith evolutionary clements in the same countries. The situation can be likened to a disrupted federation, composed of Venezuela,, Ecuador, Colombia and Nicaragua, in which liberal and conservative parti- sans are helping each other and in triguing together. But, being sepa- rate nations, the political and armed intrigues threaten international trou- ble.
 Conservative Revolt iu Venezuela.
 It is reported that the conservative revolt in Venezuela against President Castro is reciving active support from the Colombian conservatives. Nicaragua's threatened revolution will probably be similarly aided on the occasion arising. The conditions give ground for the reports of actual or threatened international complica- tioDs between the countries men, toned, in which the liberals are gen. erally opposed to Colombia's conserv- ative administration, whose prophe- sled downfall is accompanied by talk of a federation or consolidation of some or all of the countries men, toned, under the idea of "Grand Colombia"
 The Colombian government is in straits, financially, at present.

WASTING OPPORTUNITIES.

The wait a while idea still prevails
among some OF the business men re-
garding the municipality. They assert
that there is not sufficient time to thor
oughly study the situation. They want
to think 1t over.
The Bulletin would like to ask the
advocates of "a more convenient sea-
son how many of them have ever at
tended the meetings OF either of the
charter framing committees? How
many have improved what opportunity
they have for studying the situation or
making suggestions? How many have
given time and thought except such as
is necessary to reach the always easy
conclusion to put 1t off till some other
time?
With one exception tn esessions Of
both charter committees have been
open to the public. While no general
invitation has been issued for the gen.
eral public to attend these meetings, 1t
is safe to say that either of the com
mittees would be glad to see business
