Colombia.

The news printed in this mornings papers
from Colon shows that the Panama episode
has served to reveal very serious state Of
affairs in Colombia on every account. Pan
anna was not alone in grievances against
the central authority at Bogota.- The af-
fairs of the country generally were in bad
condition and needed adjustment. The ac-
ton of the people of Panama has given
courage to others, and there must be reform
now, or additional trouble for Colombia.
Says Ell Porvenir of Cartagena:
THAT Colombia's present internal situa-
ton cannot continue without bringing the
country to dissolution is admitted by
every one. Constitutional reforms are
called for with thunderous force, and in
Colombia's most urgent necessity today we
confront the problem of national dfssolu-
ton. 1t is not the hour to vacillate. Look
ing upon the vortex of internal affairs
threatening we see therein with terror
the origin Of the gravest disorders and dis
solution. Is the sword Of Damocles hang
ing over our heads?"
There seems to be more pressing business
for Colombians at homo than fighting the
United States about Panama.

The Aftermath of the Fire.

The Chicago authorities have acted in
the matter of the Iroauois Theater dis
aster with commendable promptness and
energy. A coroner's jury was quickly i'm
paneled and surveyed the scene of the fire.
Members of the board of aldermen in an
unofficial capacity went thoroughly over
the ground. The mayor issued orders re-
Quifing the presence of q member of the
city fire department to be stationed behind
the scenes of every theater. In the inves-
tigation thus hastily begun certain facts
were soon brought to light One was that
the asbestos curtain was far from being
absolutely fire-resisting. Evidence was Sc
cured that the theater company selected it
because of it's cheapness and not its fire.
proof qualities. Furthermore one of the
fire inspectors in examining the premises
found that a wire used in the aerial ballet
had been so stretched that it was impossi-
BILE for the asbestos curtain to descend.
These after the-fire discoveries throw the
strongest emphasis on the necessity to
maintain the highest possible standards of
inspection at all times. II the conditions
in the Iroquois Theater were as bad as all
the present indications suggest most ap-
palling failure to execute the laws lies at
the doors of the city authorities, which Is
to be regarded as an accountable factor
quite apart from the negligence and crimi-
nal economies of the theater owners and
managers If these details of protection
could be so flagrantly inadequate in the
newest theater it is fairly to be assumed
that the older playhouses stand today as
even more amenable to criticism.
The local authorities have indicated their
purpose to insist upon high grade of fire
security in the theaters of Washington. And
on their part the managers of the theaters
appear to be willing to do whatever the
Commissioners definitely require them to
do. to make their premises safe. Every dis
aster teaches many lessons. and Il is Wash
ington's good fortune that it has heretofore
been enabled to learn its own lessons in
the matter of theater dangers without suf-
fering the loss of single life from this
cause. The Chicago fire appears to have
brought the negotiations in this city for the
adoption of better methods in the theaters
to a crisis. 1t is evident THAI greater de-
gree Of official vigilance Is exercised here
than In Chicago, and that there Is besides
a more decided spirit Of accomnoda ton to-
ward the law on the part of the owners and
managers of the theaters of this city.

The Districts Year.

The Districts year, closed last night was
of average prosperity and good fortune No
great disasters visited the national capital
It's health was maintained at a high rate
and 1t practically recovered in this respect
the ground lost in the excessive prevalence
of typhoid fever during the year previous.
Its commercial interests stood firmly during
all the fluctuations of the financial markets
and gave further evidence of their SUBJ
stantial character. Two great public works
OF a most important nature were inau-
gurated, the union station for all the rail-
roads entering the city and the filtration
plant. Arrangements satisfactory in the
main having been perfected with the rail-
road corporations on the long desired basis
of junction of the terminals off the grade
of the streets. the beginning of this work
was regarded as marking a new era for
long suffering Washington.
Despite the failure of Congress properly
to adjust the fiscal burden which for some
seasons has pressed heavily upon the
shoulders of the taxpayers, much progress
was made toward the ideal of the Greater
washington which Is held in the minds OF
capital lovers. The eountry's sentiment to-
ward the District frequently received
pointed express on in terms to indicate that
new regard for the nations city Is SPRING
ing up in the states. Conspicuous evidence
of this fact was had in the comments on the
disclosures to the slums of Washington
pointed by remarks of Mr.. Jacob Riis. 1t
was made manifest in many ways during
the year that Washington has at last come
into it's own in this respect, and it is now
the firm belief of the public-spirited MEM
bers of the community that in the course
of short time the old-time prejudice IN
Congress against dealing literally with
Washington will yield before the unrnis-
taxable desire of the country that its cap
ftal shall be thoroughly and creditably rep

The Y. N. C. A. Fund.

Although the local end Of the Y. NJ. @. A.
building fund was<not fully completed by
the close of the year. as proposed by Mr..
Rockefeller in his original gift of $4,000, 30
excellent showing was made that the
New York philanthropist has generously
recognized the merits of the case and
granted an extension of six months. Nor
does he specifically require that the full
balance of $4,000 now remaining be raised
within that period His offer remains to
give 81 for every IS that is locally raised,
and so the gift Is secured, as the case
stands. to the proportion of the Washing
ton contributions. Yet 1t will be deplorabIe
If with these months of grace and with the
excellent start now secured the city does
not fully contribute its share OF the build
ing fund, to bring 1t up to the 800 O00 point
as originally agreed upon. The advance
made during the past few weeks toward
the desired goal showed what could be done
under a little pressure. The local pride
was aroused. 1t should not now subside
merely because the especial incentive or
working against q time limit has been re-
moved a half-year's length. The extension
of six months is to be regarded as merely
allowing a short breathing spell to com.
pensate for the sharp campaign of the past
month.
Aside from the moral obligation on the
part of the people OF Washington now to
raise the fun local quota. there remains q
very practical reason. This Is that the

there is nothing for his party in the tariff
ISSUE in the money issue, or in the Panama
ISSUE he turns to the Philippine Islands and
finds there what his party really needs. Let
1t declare for Philippine independence, and
all will be well.
Mr.. Lucking presented his views to the
Lewis Cass Club at Clave, Michigan, last
night. and closed his address with the fol-
lowing stirring exhortation:
Nominate a man of mature years, of
oonserva tive. lofty and noble character.
who in his person and past stands for the
ideals of human liberty. and then take up
this cause in earnest, and the enemy, over
whelmed by the transparent failure of their
policy and promises, will in sixty days be
on the run. We survive and even -four
ish under extortionate tariffs: we can live
In spite of trusts; we can live under bad
fiscal measures, but this country cannot en-
dure half empire and half free.
Mr. Luclzing does not so declare In as many
words but evidently he means independence
for the Filipinos at once. The American
electorate is to be asked to order the lower
ing of the stars and stripes in the Philip
pines. and to choose President and House
of Representatives to carry out the policy
How timely such action would be on the
part of this government may be seen from
present conditions in the far east Russia
and Japan are almost at war over the ag
gressions of the former in China and her
designs on Corea. If war comes it Is GER
tain to be bloody. and 1t may be protracted.
The whole of Europe may become involved.
and the United States will occupy an atti-
tude at least of great difficulty. If the
present danger passes it cannot pass for
very long. Russia's purposes are very plain,
and as She is sleepless and untirlng IN her
aims and energies, and as her aims conflict
with Japan's interests, sooner or later an
armed clash between those powers is some
thing the world must be prepared for.
If war comes 1t will likely be at its hottest
about next summer. when Mr. Lucking
would have his party add to the worlds
anxieties by proposing to throw the Philip
pines into the arena as territory sooner or
later to be fought for If war is postponed,
Mr. Lucking's proposition. If adopted, will
bring up the whole eastern question afresh,
and not improbably precipitate war For
independence for the Fflipinos at this or
any early time would mean chaos in the
archipelago, and that the world would not
stand.
