A Colombian View of the Panama
 Canal Question.

It has seemed strange to many that Colombia should hesitate to ratffy the treaty made by it's representative with the American Secretary of State in regard to the Panama Canal. Tn the July number of The North American Review, Mr. Paul Perez gives. in very interesting article, "A Colombian Review of the Panama Canal Question" Senor Perez calls at- tention to the fact that neither the Co.,
 lumbian executive nor an ordinary Con-
 gress can constitutionally ratify treaty that involves cession Of territory to d foreign power, and that the canal will not be of as much benefit to Colombia aS those who are not familiar with the situ- ation assume. The ColombIans have been accustomed to regard the Isthmus of Pan- anna as an asset of great value to their nation-a birthright, so to speak, which 1t behooves them to hand down to future generations. It Is, therefore, most dis tasteful to them to think of parting with this birthright for comparatively paItry sum, or, indeed. for any amount of mon ey. especially as any money that might Be paid for 1t would simply find it's way Into the pockets of the tnprtncipied men who

 The opinion then reviews other decis- ions bearing on the case: and continues.
 According to the view we take of the case. we may foreeo re-examinati6n and discussion of this question, since, conced- ing the right in the courts to control the Governor in matters purely ministerial we are of the opinion, as was the learned judge below, that in refusing to grant the requests of the petitioner. the Governor was not acting in purely ministerial ca pacity, but in matter Involving the ex- ercise of his judgment and discretion, as Commander-in-chlef of the State troops. - osNoA SO Pi yhAOhc tteiF eH1cieuCy In the service.

 This idea is enlarged by statement of other cases anu the opinion continues;
 Tt is contended that the Governor had no power to remove the relator from the office of Colonel of his regiment, to which he had been elected. but an ali sufficient answer to this suggestion Is that he has not been removed from his office nor dis- charged therefrorn within the meaning of Section 1928 Revised Statutes of the Uni ted States.

 Finally the opinion recftes the reply Of Governor JeIks to Colonel Hirdon r3fus- Ing to order court of inquiry because there was nothing to enquire into and says:
 Our conclusion is, that the refator's purposes cannot be subserved by this ex- traordinary remedy and that the court below did net err in the decree rendered Afirmed.''
 It is believed that this decision by the Supreme Court finally disposes of the Higdon case which has been before the public since early in last year.

The Denver News of recent date has the following to say of an Alabama wo- man who attended the National Eiocu- tionists Convention held there last week:
 "one of the nst notable eIocutionists at the convention is Mrs. Martha A. 0ie- low of Washington. D. C., and the re- citai with which she closed the pro- gram last night fully justified all that has been said of her. Mrs. Gielow is a Southern woman, with all that delicious charm which the tfuk-born Southern gentlewoman possesses and her rccitals. which are largely made up from her own Writings about 'Mamrny Jo." are full of a genuine ''Inamrny" dialect. very diff ferent from the coon" dialect one hears on the stage, or from other tongues less skilled than Mrs. Gielow's. Last night she recited How Honey Got Lo'" and .tBlow, LII Breezes," both original com positions, the latter being a nursery scene and cradle song.
 Mrs Gieiow. besides being an accom- plished 'elocutionist. is also q prominent Sunshine worker At the coronation of King Edward she represented the Inter- national Sunshine Society of America. and was honored with a letter from Queen Aiexandra. King Edward gave her mug for reciting at his dinner for the blind. Mrs. Gielow also received a letter from Hon. Cna.iotte Knollys with expressions of regret that the kings ill., ness prevented their niajesties from hearing her recite."
