IGNORANCE IN RUSSIA.

A distinguished Japanese traveller has
said that the Russians are very much
misunderstood. and that, as they be-
: come better known, there win be less
prejudice against them 1t is Kind Of
the Japanese gentleman to take this
view, for It is popularity supposed that
the love between the Russians and the
Japanese is not very feryid. But II is
no doubt true that there is much good
10 Russia and many good Russians. In
fact many travellers there have been
delighted with the people. On the other
hand, there is much ignorance, and SUI
perstition. The masses are held In
darkness by blgoted class Of ecclesias-

COLUMBIA AND rHE TREATY

According to reports from Colombia,
the patriots Of that country are plac.
Ing many obstacles IN the way Of the
canal treaty In fact. the ratification
Of the treaty Is said to be very much In
doubt.
ostenslbly the objection to II ls that
the United States virtually obtains
ownership over piece OF Colombian
territory For although thlsgoyernmcnt
only leases the strip through which
the canal runs, It Is evident that for all
practical purposes 1t becomes United
States territory,
But this Is hardly the real ground for
objection II Is more probable that the
opposition Is engineered by parties In
terested In the Nicaragua route, In the
hooe that II the Panama route is
blocked by the stupidity Of Colombian
patriots" the other route viii be Sc
lected. This, however, is an Idle game.
II can be played by both parties. II
one party succeeds IN driving the canal
builders away from Colombia. by such
tactics, the other party may be equal
ly successful, by similar tactics to
block the way through Nicaragua. and
thus both routes may oe abandoned.
Congress has declared for the Pana-
ma route, and doubtless, finally. II will
be adopted, The real objection on the
part Of some Of the Columbian leading
men Is thought 10 be that they do not
see enough in It for themselves The
Panama Canal company may have to
"see" these gentlemen before the rati-
fication Is made, This country will not
pay them for their votes That Is sure.
The sum offered is ample, especially as
Colombia win be the country most BEN
