acxt Congressional election In 1910.
| The entire machinery of govern
l neut for the next four years will thus
| be In the hands of the most bitter
opponents of Obaldia, whom they dis
trust and despise for his alliance with
the liberals and hate for what they
call his treaChery 10 the constitution
al party.
Few Spoiis Of Office.
TO reward the men whose efforts
placed him IN power, Senior Obaldia
will have only the five cabinet offices.
the seven govcrnorshlps of provinces
and two places as alcalde. Panama
and Colon.
can Senior Obaldia carry out any de-
finite program OF his government or
how can he keep his pledges to the
party which has elected him.?
That even in the RANKS OF the lib
|eral party there exists dis,rust OF the
President cleo. Is apparent from the
fact that immediately after the re-
tirement of Sanor Arias from the
Presidential race the liberal leaders
issued strict orders to their lieuten-
ants to have majority of the cleo
tors from each district cut and dried
ideals, not members of the Liberal
Alliance, SO as to ready
for any move OF the out and out Obal'
distas 10 throw over their liberal
friends.
II Is considered certain In diploma
tic circles that the first question
which Senior Obaldia will have TO face
on taking his seat will be the Jurnao
dispute with Colombia. The United
States is anxious 20 see a treaty sigh
ed between Colombia and Panama.
and, it is asserted. several months
ago informed Senior Arias that Jurado
should be considered a. belonging TO
Colombia.
In this connection the personality
of Senior Obaldia has a strong bearing
on the issue. He il was who. as Co
lombian governor OF me department
Of Panama. aided the reVolutionists
TO throw of the Colombian yoke anu
Coimbia has never frgotten his
"treachery." Therefore, In the opin-
ion OF those who kno whow strong isl
the matter Of pride in Spanisli-Amer'-
can politics, Colombia will never con-
sent to sign treaty with Panama I'M
less the disputed territory Is restored.
Revolution Not Improbable.
The signing OF treaty on such
terms is expected to infiame the mass
of the people against Coaldia and the
United States. and the government
party fully believes that a state OF
popular feeling will be created which
at any moment might break out into
open revolution, in which event the
United states would be obliged. by
article 1856 OF the canal treaty. to in
tervene with armed force In the al
fairs of Panama.
Both President Amador and Senior
Arias on several occasions repeated
their belief that the United States
government, instead Of honestly desir'
ing peace and free elections In Pana'
ma. Is seeking to embroii the contend
ing parties in a fight, which vii! u!t'-
mutely become a menace to American
interests and so force intervention.
