any knowledge, and that its very failure to de-
velop itself in its own habitat, is sufficient proof
of its inferiority." We recall, too, that In DR..
Josiah Strong's book on Expansion" this sub
ject is very ably handled. The advanced and be-
lated races, says DR.. Strong, are not travelling
the same. path. The negro race, for instance, at
a given point in the path of progress, is not sur
rounded by the same conditions and beset by the
same difficulties that the Anglo-Saxon encounter
ed. at that stage of development. Nor is it GER
tain that the belated race Will ever reach the same
development that we have; different roads and
different conditions probably mean different re-
suits. The white man invented his tools, and
wrought out for himself his system of %civiliza-
ton, and the labor strengthened and developed
him. The belated races to-day have no such task
to perform, nor will they get the benefit from
merely being born into civilization, that the white
man got from actually making it.
But even if the negro were at some time incon-
ceivably distant to become the white mans intel
lectual equal, we believe that the natural God
given racial a~ntipathy would still keep the races
separate. For the Southern protest against social
equality, as DR.. Lyman Abbott says, is not a
mere prejudice, but a just, natural, divine in
stinct for the preservation of the race.
We shall always have our freaks, of course, but
all through the ages the race as a whole will un-
doubtedly be guided by this natural, divine in
stinct." Theorists may call this "caste preju-
dice" if they will, and half-breeds like Prof. Du
Bots may protest against it with stirring pathos,
but to no avail. In its deeper meaning there will
be no equality" We are in no danger from that.
On the contrary, we believe, with DR.. Edgar Gard
ner Murphy in the address from which we have
already quoted, that "the only real danger lies
not in any phase of the Negroes wise and legiti-
mate progress, but rather in the danger that the
negro will know so little, will do so little, and will
increasingly care so little about either knowing
or doing, that this great black mass of his num-
bers, his ignorance, his idleness, and his lethargy,
will drag forever like a cancerous and suffocating
burden at the heart of our Southern life"

The Panama Revolution.


By far the greatest event of last week, was
the Panama revolution. Things moved. swiftly
down there. The people of the Isthmus of Pan
anna declared themselves independent of the gov
eminent of Colombia which had previously exer-
cised sovereignty. over them; the Colombian
forces, after little show of resistance retired; an
American gunboat was sent to keep order about
the ports, and on Friday the American consuls
were instructed to recognize the three-days-old
Republic of Panama"
Of course, the Isthmian Canal trouble is at the
bottom of all this. The canal is to be cut across
the isthmus, and the isthmus has been, nominally
at least, a part of Colombia, an alleged South
American republic. But Colombia has long been
subject to periodical revolutions; there has been
40 stable, permanent government. \ Nevertheless,
the United States has recognized this govern
ment, and has honestly endeavored to deal with
it in a decent, business-like way. We wished to
build the canal across the isthmus, and this would
have been of immense commercial benefit to Col
ombia. But it's government, with an obstinate,
dog-in-the-manger policy, demanded that we pay
it for the privilege of building the canal, while
granting it sovereignty over the country ira
versed. And as time went on, the greed of the
Colombians increased. By. the Hay-Herran
treaty, they would have received 100000 out
right and perpetual sovereignty, but this munif-
cent offer only whetted their appetite for more.

GIVES GREAT SATISFACTION.
Treaty to Settle Alaskan Dispute
Pleases English Papers,

London. Jan. 2G.-The signature of
the An2lo-American treaty to settle
Alaskan disputes at Washington has
given great satisfaction to the English
press on the ground that it arrives at
a critical moment IN the Venezuelan
difficulty and is further proof of the
uninterrupted friendship existing be-
tween Great Britain and the United
States. This is the point that is elab-
Grated upon n the articles upon the
subject, rather than the intrinsic
value of the measure concluded.
Little doubt is felt that the United
States senate Will accept the treaty,
and that the commission viii ultimate
ly meet in London, but it is remarked
that no provision is made for the Sc
lection Of an umpire and in the event
Of the commission being evenly di-
vided the controversy will be 10 nearer
a settlement. One paper thinks i'll this
event the controversy should be re-
ferred TO The Hague tribunal. 1t is
hoped, however, that the publication of
the treaty will show more details for
the commission arriving at a com
promise. thus settling q long standing
dispute. of which, il is added. a settle
ment is imperative if international
friction Is TO be avoided.

TREATY SIGNED At WASHINGTON
FOR SETTLEMENT OF THE
ALASKAN DISPUTE.
THREE MEN ON EACH SIDE
Agreement Provides for Reference Of
Ali inc Boundary Questions to a
Mixed Tribunal Of Jurists-Proposi-
ton Is Virtually the Same as the
One Rejected by Great Britain Three
Years Ago.
Years Ago.

Washington. Jan 26. - Secretary
Hay and Sir Michael Herbert, the Brit
sh ambassador. during the day signed
a treaty providing for the settlement
of the ALASKAN boundary question.
Efforts in this direction have been
put forth for d long time, the pressure
coming from both sides. The Cana
dian miners are anxious to get through
the Klondike to the sea without pass
ing through American territory, and
the Americans insist upon their rignt
to the coast line and the control of the
ports. The treaty signed provides for
the reference of all these boundaries
questions TO a mixed tribunal of jur-
lists, three on each side, to determine
the Interpretation to be placed on the
treaty of 1926 between Great Britain
and Russia, which defined the bound
aries between British territory and
Alaska. This proposition is virtually
the same as tnat brought forward by
the American members Of the high
Joint commission, which met in Wash
ington three years ago, but which then
was rejected by TIE British ard Cana
dian representatives.
1t has taken three years to obtain
the consent Of the British and Cana
dian governments to adjust the bound
ary dispute on this basis. IL is under
stood that the treaty has been drawn
up after thorough consultation with
the leading members of the senate Of
both political parties, the administra-
tiOn desiring to do everything possi-
BILE in advance to secure its ratifica-
ton. The commission proposed is
curious in composition, consisting of
an equal number of members on each
side, without an umpire or odd man
to cast the deciding vote. No other
terms of arbitration would have been
acceptable to the people of the North
west. who see in this arrangement a
practical extinction of any chance of
a decision hostile to their plans. On
the other hand, to get verdict favor

must be so strongly presented as tC
