TREATY WITH NEW GRANADA

one OF the remarkable features Of
the recent Panama revolution Is the
fact that nowhere ls there much sym-
pgthy expressed for the country that so
suddenly lost a department, or prov
inco. Only In this country among the
opponents Of the spread OF American
influence, arc the words OF sym
puthy for Colombia heard, mingled
with expressions Of censure of our own
government But 1t Is evident that
the attitude Of the Washington authori-
ties has been strictly correct both in
a diplomatic and a moral sense,
The treaty Of 1886 Is appealed 20 now
That treaty was made with New
Granada, BY that treaty we were
guaranteed the right of passage across
the lsthmus. and we guaranteed the neu-
trality OF this portion OF the territory
and New Granada's sovereignty over
the same. Now II is claimed that this
treaty IL in force with Colombia, but II
so, the treaty goes with the land for
the republic Of New Granada was
overthrown, ana Colombia took It's
place But II the effect Of the treaty
went with the land at that time, there
Is no reason why It should not follow
the same course now The treaty of
1916, then, should be considered bind
lng upon whatever government con-
trolls the territory In question de facto.
Panama has on several occasions as
serted the right of the people TO self
government. In 1861 she withdrew
from the confederation OF New Gran
ada, and the treaty Of 1876 was in force
with Panama as the other party. In
1861 the Panamans voluntarily joined
what was then the United States of
Colombia, but It is claimed that they
expressly reserved the right to WITH
draw from that union. In 1856 the
United States Of Colombia abandoned
the principle OF federation and estab-
lished the Republic of Colombia, abol-
lshing states rights Panama and one
other state refused to recognize the
new regime. and they were subdued and
governed by officials not Of their own
selection. Panama has never given up
her right to withdrawal from a union
which she has been forced TO enter
She has merely exercised that right
and the United States Is no more under
obligation TO Interfere against that,
than Il was to interfere on previous
oepnQionu

THE WORK FOR PEACE.

The visit Of the Italian King and
Queen to London Is made the occasion
OF brillian state functions, but the great
interest in that event will center IN
it's political significance. II Is thought
that during this visit, British and Ital-
ian statesmen will endeavor TO come
to an understanding regarding ques-
tons that affect Europe, North Africa,
and Eastern Asia. IT Is quite evident
that the plans OF King Edward aim at
the coalition OF western Europe, for
the preservation of peace, and II seems
that ne Is meeting with success. 1t is
also evident that the British king has
set his heart on the establishment Of
political conditions by which arbitration

humanitarian work, he counts on the
cooperation Of the United States, and
of every other civilized power He as
much as made this statement not long
ago. 20 Lord LansdOwne, Undoubtedly,

A FAIR CONCLUSION.

Many papers are commenting on the
speech OF Senator Hoar when present.
ing a petition against the retention
of Senator Reed smoot In the United
states Senate. While admitting that
the question involved must receive
careful consideration and be decided
In the manner OF judicial inquiry,
some of them claim for the Senate a
greater latitude than that OF court.
But the general view OF the matter is,
that It should be treated according to
the rules OF the legislative body which
Is directly affected, and under the prin-
ciples of the National Constitution.
Among other prominent journals that
touch on the subject ls the New York
Evening sun, which gives both sides
of the controversy in the Senate as to
the introduction OF petitions, and comes
to this fair conclusion:
"As United states Senator Mr..
Smoot should certainly not be dis
turbed, unless he gained admttanoe
to the Senate on false pretenoes. APP
parently the petitioners believe that
he has. Ample and conclusive evidence
should be required 90 Justify the Senate
