woman with unbounded wealth, which
is but another name for boundless
power, should become pervert?
Circumscribe the efforts Of man or
woman to the qualification Of the appe-
tites and passions, teach them that
there is nothing higher and holier
than self; give them power to satisfy
every propensity that a vain or vicious
Imagination can foster, what can you
expect but a man that is q beast or q
m more depraved than any pro-
duct Of the slums? All human beings
worship power. The wealth Of the
Four Hundred, as Mr.. Wattsrson points
out, places them above the law.
Equality before the law, 80 far as they
are concerned, does not exist. They
are the Four Hundred because they rep
resent the greatest power in the land.
All patriotic and fair-minded people
who know the facts now admit that the
multimillionaire has become an infec-
ton in the body polite, that the pur-
chase Of an earl or duke is as coarse
and immoral a transaction as the pur-
chase OF a concubine for the Harem of
an Asiatic ~potentate; that the orgies of
the Four Hundred more nearly re-
semble the feast in Nero's palace, as
set forth in ''Quo Vadis," than any
thing else, but what are you going to
do about it? Mr.. Watterson will find
that torrents Of %invectives will no more
wash away the evils Of which he COM
plains, than a wall of denunciation
will stop a flood in the Ohio. The
fountains from which they flow must
be dried up.
For ten years of the recent life of
Mr.. Watterson he has not been in
favor Of touching these fountains.
When in 1896 it was proposed to take
a step toward breaking the hold OF the
money lord upon the ommon people
Of this country, Mr.. Watterson filled
the country with clamor against it.
When attention was called to the evils
that we're already overlooking US from
permitting the few to reap their multi
piled millions from the sweat Of the
multitude, Mr.. Watterson was with
the few. Since then be has never lost
an opportunity of sneering at and cast.
ing odium upon the leaders in that
fight. What folly to attack the rotten
Four Hundred and leave the causes
that create it untouched! The de-
nunciations OF Mr.. Watterson do not
have the effect upon the common peo-
pie they had some years ago. They
have come to doubt his sincerity.
They have seer him bearing arms
under the enemy's flag and quartered
in the enemy's camp. Perhaps he has
been personally piqued. At all events
his shrieking will accomplish nothing.
The avalanche will roll into the valley
so long as sno is permitted to gather
on the top of the mountain. Let him
enlist once more under the banner OF
Democracy. Let him join hands with
Bryan and Tom johnson and his
talents will become useful to his kind
once more.

COLOMBIA is GRAsPINc.
Wants Large Cash Payment and More
Rental for Canal.

Washington. oct. 2S.--The long ex-
pected response of the Colombian gov
eminent to the proposition made by the
state department for the negotiation of
a canal treaty, on the lines of the
Spooner act, has reached Washington
and was presented to the state depart
ment, Monday.
1t is difficult TO learn the exact I'M
derstanding of the nature of this com
munica ton, but it is known that it is
not altogether an unqualified accept
ance of the state departments PROPOSE
ton. 1t is. however. friendly and dig
nified in tone. and does not close negO-
tiations by any means, though 1t un-
uuestionably sets back the date of final
agreement by opening up new topics
for argument.
Fer one thing the Colombian govern
ment now is entirely dissatisfied with
the small amount of the pavement IN
be made to it by the United States I'M
der the terms of the protocol which IT
is proposed to use as the basis of the
treaty. This sum is S7,000,0O0. Colom-
bia wants at least s10,000,0O0.
Moreover, the original proposal
looked to a wait for "A years before be-
ginning the payment of annual rental,
the amount of which was to be fixed
by mutual agreement. Colombia now
asks the United States to agree at once
to a lump yearly payment of $600,oOo'
which will considerably increase the
immediate cost of the enterprise.

RUSSIAN BOUNDARY MARK.
Located and Gives United States Much
Disputed Territory.

Seattle. Wash. Oct aS.-Advices
were received from Juneau on the
steamer Dolphin that the missing Rus
sian boundary monuments, which have
peen searched for by Lieut.. Emmons
Tor the past two seasons. have been
discovered by a prospector of the Por-
cunine district, James f. DeBlondeay.
a native Of Marseilles, France, who in
terested himself in the modus vivendi
strip for several years.
Through friendship with the Chi,kat
indians he gained information which
gave him clue to the position of
the nrst monument From this start
he discovered several more of the land
marks put up years ago by the Cars
men, The line marked by these mon
uments is about five miles inland from
Pleasant camp, which is II miles from
klukwon. The latter is five miles from
tide water on the Chilkat river.
This makes the Russian survey line
approximately q miles inland to the
summit-less than 10 marine leagues
and Just where ii was expected to h..
from the language used in the Anglo
russian treaty of 1925. The RAINY
Hollow district is within American Ter
ritory.
