With the salute given by the Marble
head to the flag Of the new republic Of
Panama, the episode of the Panama re-
volution is closed. Never has a revo-
luton among the South American Re-
publics been carried out so bloodlessIy.
South American revolutions usually
are accompanied by great loss of life
and destruction of both public and
private property. Had not the United
States been in position to prevent the
landing of Colombian troops much
bloodshed would have ensued. The
right which the United States has Of
protecting the railway line across the
isthmus, gave her the opportunity Of
warning the Colombian forces off. Ne
gotiations for the canal are already
underway, and the Bogota politicians
will see nothing of the golden stream
which win flow into the new r public.
