To the citizen not consumed by this

Nevertheless, the President who,
like Mr. Roosevelt. is bold enough to
defy hungry Office seekers and warn
them to keep away from his presence
must count upon the resentful hos

In so far as is possible TO the men

Panama Canal Proposals


Panama Canal Proposals.
According to a special to the
Herald, Secretary Hay has re-
ceivc'l advices that Lord Paunce-
fotc will submit proposals for the
revival of the Hav-Paucefote
treaty and for harmonizing the
points of difference between the
United States and the British
government. Senior Silvelva, the
Colombian minister to the United
States, has already submitted in
formal proposals to Secretary Hay
for the acquisition of the Panama
canal BY this government and has
been invited to discuss them
further.
Preliminary protocols were
entered into some time ago with
Costa Rica and Nicaragua, so that
these two countries during the
summer will probably be merely
interested spectators of the move
ments which the United States.
Great Britain and Colombia will
make. 1t is understood that
these are the essential points which
the Colombian government will
urge: A lease for Il term of years,
as long as the United States may
desire, not exceeding 200 years. Of
the territory across which the
Panama Canal is being constructed.
In return for such lease, Colombia
is to reeeine either II per cent OF
the tax on tonnage passage through
the canal or IA lump compensation.
Recognition Of thc rights OF the
French company, which will III
its concession with Colombia +
consent to the United States.
