exclusive right to police and protect
the canal is practically that offered
by Senator Bacon on Saturday, with
some verbal changes. This amend
ment makes the control of the United
States over the canal absolute and ex-
elusive, and their right to police and
protect the same is under no circum-
stances dependent upon the request or
invitation of the Republic of Column
bia.
The other amendment agreed upon
was to article four of the treaty, re-
lating to the policy of the United
States towards other Central and
South American Republics, the Ian
guage of the amendment being as fol-
lows:
THE United States, following their
uniform established policy in regard to
their sister Republics in America,
freely acknowledge and recognize the
sovereignty of the Republic of Colom-
bia and disavow any intention to i'm
pair it in any way whatever or to
increase their territory at the expense
of Colombia. but most earnestly de-
sire her peace and prosperity"
After the adjournment of the caucus
Senator German, as chairman, and
Senator Carmack, as secretary of the
caucus, gave out the following state
nent concerning the last mentioned
amendment:
Democratic Statement.
This amendment qualified the lam
guage of the treaty to the extent OF
making a simple affirmation of the es-
tablished policy of the government
against the policy of territorial acqui-
sitiOn at the expense of sister Repub-
lies in America and acknowledges the
sovereignty of the Republic of Colom-
bia. There was strong objection to the
language of the treaty in this respect,
because it was thought to be an i'm
pertinence to enter into an engage
ment with Colombia for the protection
of other South American republics
thus, in a manner, recognizing that re-
public as the most important of all
others and giving her a sort of pri-
macy among them.
The language of the treaty is also
broadened in that the amendment as
serts this policy of the United States
with reference to all the American re-
publics, while the treaty confines its
pledges to those of Central and South
America, studiously emitting Mexico,
which is the republic most sensitive
and apprehensive of aggressions on the
part of the United States.
The language of the treaty also
goes to the extent of declaring IT to
be the policy of the United States to
maintain the separate independence of
all the Central and South American
republics, not solely as against Euro
pean powers. but as against each 9TH
er. This was believed to be contrary
to the true policy of the United States,
which is not concerned with the inter-
nal arrangements of these republics,
but only with their defense and pro-
lection AGAINST the outside world, in
accordance with the principles of the
Monroe doctrine"

DUPONT and Nashville May BE

Sparks, Ga, March 16.-The latest
railroad rumor comes from Midtown.
The citizens of that place are agitating
the question and propose to build a
railroad from Dupont to Nashville,
via Midtown. Sparks and Nashville
have both been approached on the sub
ject.
Such a road would be of great bene-
fit to both towns. 1t would connect
at Nashville with the Nashville and
Sparks Railroad, and thus give a di-
rect line to Dupont. The distance from
Nashville to Dupont is only about
thirty-five miles.

The Ex-sLAVR Pen SION BILL.

Senator Hanna of Ohio intrs-
duced in the Senate a bill to pen
sion ex slaves. There is no man
in this country more advanced and
honOrod than the distinguished
Senator from Ohio. 4 similiar

Representatives by democrat
and many alleged negro democrats
would enter a political campaign
and say to certain colOred voters
that the republicans were opposed
to the pensiOning of tx-slaves.
The BEE has always maintained
that the republicans of the Senat4
were more favorable to the ex-
slaves than the democrats. There
