sending troops to the isthmus would
not necessarily deter 1t from taking
these steps, which, as already stated,
are intended merely to satisfy the peo-
pie. Well informed people on the
isthmus believe that the Colombian
government is going through all these
forms Of organizing expeditions not
merely for the foregoing reasons, but
owing to the necessity Of forestalling
or Of weakening the threatened reyo-
lutionary outbreak in Bogota.
The growing feeling against Presi-
dent Marroquin is believed to be due
to the fact that he did not show suf-
fcient determination to effect the rati.
dcation Of the canal treay, which
would have saved the isthmus TO CO.
lombia, and because he appointed Gen
eral Obaldria governor OF the depart
ment of Panama after Obaldia had
declared that he would remain Co
lombian IL the treaty were ratified,
but that otherwise he would only be
4 Panamanian. General Obaldia was
born in Chtriqui, in the state of Pana-
ma.
Miners and others familiar with the
coast on both sides of the isthmus de-
clare that any attempt to march an
expeditionary army from any purt of
Colombia to the isthmus would be fu-
tile. Both COASTS consist of impassa-
BILE jungles and swamps and rivers,
without towns or roads or any means
for the provisioning Of an army. The
members Of the Junta have not the
slightest fear that any such expedi-
ton will he attempted. and they re.
ceive the reports Of such expeditions
with equanmty.
What is described here in Panama
as "the United States broad interpreta-
tion Of the CLAUSE of the treaty of 1916
regarding the protection of traffic
across the isthmus" is deemed ample

awe Learn BY What We suffer- .

3 The old adage which is used for a
headline is very applicable to in
dustrial conditions in this country
atthe present time.
Sooner or later our employers will
learn that their relations with the
employed is not of paternal ma
ture. They will learn from the
serious losses occasioned by strikes,
that the European idea of an en-
ployment contract must be revised
and made applicable to a strong,
self-respecting, educated class Of
workmen, Every trace of the
European idea that there is a differ
ence in species between employers
and workmen must be eradicated.
The doctrine that the employer con
fers a benefit upon a man when he
gives him work has no proper place
in the industrial conditions Of
America, any more than the oppo-
site doctrinesthat the peri orlnance Of
work is a favor to the employer.
In this country there should be
no thought of such a thing as a
superior class comforting favors up
on an inferior, for anything Of that
nature is certain to be resented by
our great army Of industrious, self
respecting wealth producers. n.
The employer is the representa-
tive Of capital, and capital and labor
are equals. Both are equally strong,
and both are alike dependant upon
the other. Before they can work
harmoniously and bring about the
greatest good, the two forces mus
mutually respect each other. Capi
tai has been powerful in all age
and tits learning at bitter cost tn,
increasing power Of a vast body 0
educated and organized workmen
When capital has learned and suffer
ed, and suffered until it has Learned
that labor is its equal, there will no
be as many strikes as there are a
present.
