THANKS SEWING.

Crepsus has gold, while none have l. yet mine
Are aureus buttercups and gold divine
From sunsets cupel blown at days decline.
Crepsus has broad domains but envy
His holdings? Nay; have the broad, blue sky
And sea wherein and DER by dreambrds fly.
Crepsus long miles of forest would amass,
Barring therefrom all corners. Let il pass
He can not wall the scent of flowers and grass
Crepsus has built marble mansion tall
The bluebrds nest my cottage wall;
My chimney echoes with swallows call.
Crepsus-a Mammon- priest-known near and far
His and power my comfort do not mar;
He has no lien on yonder evening star.

IT'S A QUESTION OF RIGHT.

The Democratic press of the south is worried the
fact that the contract made between Colombia and
the French owners of the Panama there is proys
ion to the effect that the event of the company at
tempting to transfer its property any one to
nation other than to Colombia the said company shall
thereby forfeit all it's rights Or under the provision
cited the French company transfer their holding
to the United States in the absence of the consent of Co
lombia? Not being versed in international law, nor up
in diplomacy assert that the French company
has any legal" authority sell to Uncle Sam. 1t is
question of right rather of law But these south
er brethren forget that in successful revolutions
many socaIed legal rights and claims fall to the ground
Colombia has lost her legal power over Panama Panama
her independence which independence is an ac
complished fact lacking only the formal recognition of
the powers But that not ALL The United States has
recognized such independence and stands ready make
such recognition good. Panama the canal any
longer under jurisdiction of Colombia and there you
arc. The government at Washington stands ready to
make good to its profered treaty which Colon
ba rejected pay the French people the original
price agreed upon The right way and the improve
belong to the French All that wanted
from Panama by the United States. is the privilege of
purchasing Of finishing the construction work and the
right to operate and protect the finished canal.
The attitude of the southern press hard to compre-
bend unless of parsanship. 1t is undenabe
fact easy of demonstration admitted by everybody
that the section will be directly and more
greatly benefited by acquisition the
north.
There is reason why any American who desires the
building of the Isthmian canal under American super
vision should regret the independence of Panama and
the prompt action of our government.
According this treaty the United ceded
soutey strip land required for the building
canal This government will have absolute sovereignty
over the canal belt upon the payment s0O000OO to
the new republic viii have the right police the
territory any way choose Not only that
will have authority maintain order and enforce san
tsry regulations the cities of Panama and Colon pro
vded the local municipal governments fail these re
spects, While the the territory through which
1t is be constructed will under American control
the waterway itself is neutral and open to all the
nations Of the world
OF course this arrangement VIII be infinitely more
acceptable the Americans than would have been the
conditions provided by lease from the republic of Co
lomba Absolute sovereignty is preferable 10 leased
from all points Of view and it VIII be seen that tbs
revolution which brought republic into being has
been beneficial 10 this government in many ways
