has gone through the year satisfactorily.
1t gained decided point of advantage In
the settlement Of the Alaskan boundary
dispute 1t was confronted with the posi-
biiity of embarrassment in the matter Of
the Panama canal but the present status
of that affair is evidently satisfactory to a
great majority Of the people and the chance
of serious conflict of interests on the
isthmus, perhaps involving this govern
ment In a bloody dispute has been presum-
ably averted through the promptness with
which the emergency was met.
The public health has been in general
good. the only conspicuous instance In ex-
ception being the violent outbreak of ty-
phoid fever at Butler. Pa. The country has
been tried by the disasters already men
toned, but through an their bitter expe-
riences the people have maintained lofty
courage and a fine spirit. The passing Of
the year finds the community imbued with
an optimism which Is not to be crushed by
all the disasters on record or the incidental
embarrassments or losses or disappoint-
ments. The new year will be welcomed
tonight with heartiness because 1t Is felt
that, despite the woes and sufferings of the
time just closing, there, are joys and bene-
fits and rewards in store for those who look
ahead with confident faith in the benefi-
cence of the powers that govern the desti-
MES of men.

Colombia's Future.

1t seems to be assumed by those Ameri-
cans who take the side of Colombia against
the United States that without Panama
Colombia is doomed to stagnation and
eternal poverty. Panama, IL we may be-
lieve these gentlemen. was Colombia's little
eve lamb. and we have disgraced ourselves
and impoverished her by separating her
from the promising fodder.
The charge that the United States To-
mented the revolution and brought the new
needs no further refutation. The record
is painful to nobody who Is not seeking
distress. To those who are seeking dis
tress; who in straits for political issue
are easily upset and able to find an ache
where no ache exists. 1t Is useless to offer
the record 1t il their purpose not to be
convinced. and it Is just as well to let them
go on hugging the charge to their sensitive
bosoms. Their agitation is for politics
only.
1t may, however, be pointed out that the
canal when completed win exercise an influ-
ence for growth and prosperity very far be-
yond the boundaries Of the little state
through which 1t will run. Panama, OF
course. should benefit at once. and greatly
but why not also and at an early day the
whole of Central and South America? Why
not Colombia particularly. as she Is so neal
to the canal zone? What has she to do bu
trim her sails for the new and stronger
wind that will be blowing to make as mucl
Roadway as any other state in that quartet
of the globe? General Reyes. the newly
elected resident Of the country, Is descyih

Russia and the United States,

The apprehension and indignation re-
ported to be felt in Russia regarding the
dispatch of an American naval force to
Manila from Honolulu would be amusing
were 1t not for the tenor of the dispatches
from st. Petersburg which indicate. that
belief there prevails that this govern
ment is seeking by this means to declare
its friendliness for Japan in the present
strain of relations. Undoubtedly Amer1-
can sympathy is with Japan in so far as
that nation represents resistance to Rus
sian monopoly of Manchurian trade. But
there is absolutely no disposition on the
part Of the United States. as far as is
known here at the capital. to take part in
Russo-Japanese war. This government
Is squarely on record as of the belief that
Russia should keep It's pledges and with
draw from Manchuria. but having secured
from China certain treaty rights 1t is as
Stunning that it's own interests are safe
guarded, and it Is not disposed to inter-
vene at this stage to force Russia to keep
faith in the matter of immediate evacua-
ton.
Those Russians who see tremendous and
sinister possibilities in the sailing of
large fleet of our vessels from Honolulu to
Manila apparently forget that both of the
ports mentioned belong to the United States
and that Guam, where the fleet will stop in
transit, Is also American territory Thus
as the program now stands. Admiral Evans
will conduct his vessels only into our own
ports. Furthermore the alarmist Russians
seem not to realize that the United States
cannot be bound by wars or rumors of
wars on the part of other powers in the
matter of so distributing it's navy as to Sc
own interests. 1t is now a Pacific power,
virtually an Asiatic power. through it's
ownership Of Hawaii and the Philippines.
In the event Of war between Japan and
Russia, of which there is a present pros
pect more or less definite. this government
hold at Manila sufficient naval force to
maintain it's authority under any circum-
stances. Pc %. -.-- .-
1t is feared in all quarters that the
threatening war will not be confined to
Japan and Russia. Each of those powers
that both allies will be drawn into the
conflict. Just where such q struggle would
end cannot now be foretold with any de-
gree of confidence The possibilities for
general confusion and disruption are in
finite. Accordingly it is very decidedly to
tensive territorial and vast commercial in
terests in the far east, should be on hand
fully prepared to safeguard its own.

The Hoosier Democracy.

In little brush in Indiana the silver
democrats the other day defeated the gold
democrats. An effort was made by the lat
ter to Increase their committee strength,
but the former were on the alert and held
their own This will be cheering news for
Mr.. Bryan when he reaches Evansville on
the evening of the 14th proximo and faces
the guests who will attend a dinner to be
eaten in honor of Jeffersonian principles.
Should we be surprised by this result? For
many years the Indiana democracy was led
by Mr.. Hendricks and Mr. Voorhees,, both
of whom We're prominent first in greenback
and then in free silver circles, and while
both men have passed from the scene much
Of the impression they made on their con-
stituents remains. Indiana at this time
may hardly be counted as anti-Bryan in
the effort now on foot to reduce the Nebras-
kan to the condition of nonentity in the
next democratic national convention

The Japanese Our Jealous Coadjutors


Should 1T be proved to the satisfaction Of
our State Department that Russia, after
breaking the promise given to us in writing
that she would begin the evacuation Of
Manchuria on October of the current year,
is trying to prevent us from obtaining con-
cessions of vital moment to our trade with
the far east we should have to ask our
selves very seriously whether our national
interests would permit us to remain neutral
in the event of a contest between Russia
and Japan.
1t should be remembered that throughout
the negotiations that bore fruit in our COM
mercial treaty with China. and throughout
our attempts to bring about speedy evac-
uation of Manchuria. the Japanese have
been our consistent and Jealous coadjutors.
Their influence at Picking, which Is second
only to that of Russia. has been cast uni
formly on our side. Nothing in the future
is more certain than that If in the conflict
which many believe to be at hand Japan
should be victorious, not only would our
merchandise have free and immediate ac-
cess to all parts of Manchuria but our COM
mercial treaty with China would be forth
with ratified. and the abolition of the likin
would throw open the whole of the last
named country. On the other hand, 1t is
most improbable that. should Russia prove
the victor the obstruction she already Of
fers to our trade with the middle kingdom
would be relaxed instead of being aggravat-

The Passing Year.

Naturally retrospective on the closing day
OF the year, the thoughts today are tinged
with deep sadness because of the fright
fth loss of life in Chicago so close to the
end OF the period Instinctively the mind
reverts to the other catastrophes which
mar the years record Those of 1903 are
many and the sum total of their cost in
lives and property is shocking. But when
the story of a twelve month of burnngs
ana drownings and Crushings and explo-
Sions Is all told the net losses will probably
not range higher proportionately this year
than in the past. Such visitations come In
waves. Just at present the United States
is the scene of series of awful happen
ings, chiefly on the railroads. and it may
he for that reason that the years end
seems more than ordinarily gruesome
The country has been prosperous through
out the year. The crops were good, and
despite frosts. floods and fires the produc-
ers of all classes We're enabled to reap a
rich harvest. Industrially there has been
rather more than the usual share of
trouble although in this respect the past
twelve months compare favorably with
1902. owing to the occurrence in that year
of the great coal strike.
The financial conditions have not been as
wholesome during the latter part of the
year the country best interests re-
quire. Over-capitaiization has wrought its
baleful effects in a striking degree and the
collapse of a number of inflated consoli-
dations has attested TO the dangerous con-
ditiens underlying many of the great trade
organizations. The substantial interests
have not been materially affected, although
the shaking of public confidence by the fail
ure of the ship-buiiding trust, the Lake
Superior combination and some others re
acted unfavorably for time upon the real
~ solid investments However. there is NJ
present Indication that the eountry's pros
perity has been undermined to a degre,
warranting any apprehension. assuming
that the tendency toward imitation and tn,
marketing of insuficiently ballasted Sc
curitfes has been properly checked.

when he returns from his mission hero,
fully informed as to our policy and pur-
poses. why should he not address himself
to shaping Colombia's course in accordance
with the new opportunities, and why should
not the Colombfans support his best efforts
In that direction?
Our course Is fixed. The opportunities
win be there. Colombia may take them or
leave them. as she chooses. To take them
and improve them should mean much to
her. To leave them, and inaugurate war
with the United States. or even a churlish
and unfriendly policy, could result only In
her loss. To fight would mean for her cer-
tain defeat; to sulk would mean all the dis
asters that attend ehild's-play when In

author OF her own undoing so far as Pan
anna is concerned. Her future is In her own
