SATURDAY EVENING. NOV. "A, 1908

THE announcement that President
Marrooin of Colombia has telegraphed
To General Plaza, President of Ecuador,
that Generals Reyes, Caballeros, Ospina
and Holguin are marching on Panama
with a large army is calculated to place
thorns in the pillow Of President Roose-
Welt who was so quick to acknowledge
the independence Of the Panama rebels
aud receive their envoy yesterday. II
il known that Colombia has the sym
pathy of all the South American States,
who naturally argue that as the "mother
republic" has dealt with Colombia so Is
it liable to act with either of them
should the United States see an oPpor-
unity to enhance its interests. History
is constantly reproducing itself When
Queen Maria Theresa was, under the
pragmatic sanction, burdened with the
responsibility of governing Hungary and
Bohemia. Frederick the Great pretended
to be her guardian and ready to prevent
the encroachments of other nations upon
her majesty's domains, but at an OPP
FORTUNE time he robbed the queen OF
Siosia. The United States pretends to
spread its protective wings over South
American countries and shows its teeth
whenever European nation becomes
menacing to one of those States, even
when attempts are made to collect just
debts. The "mother republic" how
ever, has no computations of conscience
when in its commercial greed it con
cludes to expand its own Importance.
1t has therefore been instrumental in the
partition of small country it had pro-
fessed to protect. 1t remains to be seen
what will follow when Colombia at
tempts to reclaim its territory.

PRESIDENT PALMA of Cuba has signed
the grant of $780, 900 voted to General
Gomez for his services as head of the
revolutionary army. The world was
told that Gomez was a high and lofty
patriot, who was willing to give his
life and fortune to "free" Cuba, but
now it appears that his services were
rendered for a consideration.

VIRGINIA BAPTIsTs. The attendance
at the sessions of the Virginia Baptist
Association was large in Staunton yester-
day. The treasurer reported 800 and
81, 600 contributed by the Virginia Bap-
fists for distribution through their sever
al boards. Rev. DR.. White, of Atlanta,
discussed home missions in the Southern
States for natives, foreigners and negroes.
The report OF the Sunday school and
Bible board was ably discussed by DR..
J. NJ. Pitcher, of Petersburg, and DR..
Cabell Henning, of Bristol The night
session was devoted to missions for the
State, reported by Mr.. Ellison, of Rich
mond, and an address by DIR. Pickard,
of Lynchburg. The report shows $685.
900 raised for the State.
Rev. DIR. S. G. Mitchell and DIR. John
White, of Atlanta, spoke on the negro
question. DIR. White said that of the
20, 600, 900 inhabitants in the South to-
day 5000, 900 are negroes and 4,O0O,-
600 are foreign-born. The problem which
confronts the south is a startling one.
Those who stand the nearest the burden
are best prepared to bear it, he said. The
negroes were declared to be naturally of
the Baptist persuasion, and the speaker
said it is incumbent upon the Baptists to
look after their welfare.
DR.. Mitchell said that if an anti-negro
plank be placed in the democratic plat
form it will be more fatal to the party
than the slavery question.

WHEN Mr.. Roberts, democrat, wa
elected to the House of Representative
from Utah, the highly moral republicans
and woman's sufIragists sent up Almighty
howl against his being allowed a seat II

would be scandalized should such
thing happen; whereupon Mr. Roberts
was turned out of the Capitol and SEM
home. Time went on and 10 place

leaders made direct dicker with the
Mormons of that State, by which an
elder in the Mormon church, but re-
publican, was elected to the us. Sen

not by republicans, against a Mormon
being in Congress- and when rOtests arc
sent to the Senate against Mr.. Smoot be-
inc allowed to retain his seat, Senator
Hoar, the high priest of the republican
party, says the decision of the title Of a
Senator to his seat in the Senate is a
purely judicial question, to be deter
mined upon evidence and the applica-
ton to the evidence of the Constitution
and laws of the United States" Senator
Hanna, chairman of the republican ma
tional committee. it is stated, will defend
the Mormon, and will be supported by
the Senators from the western States,
in which Mormons form large percent
age of the population, and by such
other republicans as may regard political
exigencies as overshadowing the moral
question involved This goes to show
that a democratic Mormon is sinner
while republican Mormon is a saint
