"why not let the decision be made
not by ourselve. but by a con-
gress Of leading American pow

we must show our good faith.
They doubt US. 1t must be our

integrity -
AS the very first step in this
new policy, President Wilson an
nounced at Mobile that this coun-
try would never acquire another
foot of territory by conquest.
This will be followed by a state

Under Wilson we are going to
turn over a new leaf in our dip

brought forward many infallable
scriptural proofs of satans verit-
able, personality, not only in as
found in the sacred volume but
as manifested in things about us.
MEN are often d.vilish, "despic.
able Williams" so to speak. Some
times we come face to face with
such demon like doings, that
nothing short OF satanic turpi-
tude could be the prime mover in
it. There is a universal accept
ance of this among men. You
relate to some fiendish work of a
hardened wretch, and he quickly
and Inadvertently exclain1s ''The
Devil" Showing that he with
out philosophizing about it. as
cribes the inhuman deed to the
devil. When one has just
enough religion to make them
hate, and not enough to make
them love one another. Dean
Swift says, the devil is lingering
near. Rev. Cane handled his
subject without gloves and warn
ed his people against our adver-
sary, the devil" for he was going
to and fro in the earth. like a
roaring lion seeking whom he
may devour. One means to
this end was a more perfect
knowledge Of the scriptures and
"closer walk with God" If you
do not go elsewhere to worship,
come and hear Rev. Cane.

Washington Letter,
BY Edward Heating,
Congressman-at-Large
From Colorado.

rehensible in a nation as in an in
dividual! That's the new and de-
cidediy startling doctrine laid
down by President Woodrow
Wilson in recent state documents
and definitely defined and en-
.phasized in his new famous Mo-
bile speech. Hereafter Uncle
Sam is to be 'on the level" at
least the present administration.
And another thing quite as i'm
portant-hetis going to stop bull
doing his neighbors in South
and Central America.
For more than a century every
Fourth of July orator in the coun-
try has eulogized the Monroe
Doctrine and has told how it was
formulated for the purpose of
protecting the helpless Spanish
American republics from the
greedy land grabbers of Europe,
but whenever Uncle Sam felt like
it he helped himself to such por-
tions of his wards property as
aroused his cupidity,
THE STORY OF COLUMBIA
Take our treatment of Colum-
bia as an example,:
When President Roosevelt de-
cided to purchase the partially
completed Panama Canal from its
French owners he found a large
sized cloud on their title to the
right of way. The Republic of
Columbia insisted that the
Frenchmen had not carried out
their agreement and that they
were not in position to make a
conveyance.
Teddy promptly financed a rev.
olution in the, State |of Panama.
a part of Columbia, an having
established an opera bouffe re-
public on the Isthmus, proceeded
to negotiate for a right of way.
Of course he got it on his own
terms It France or any other
nation had attempted to do the
same thing, American men and
ships would have gone to the res
cue of Columbia. We would have
felt that our national honor had
been attacked and no sacrifice of
blood ard treasure would have
been too great to resent it. But
when we desired to do a little
land grabbing On our own account
Oh, that was different. The
Monroe Doctrine could not be in
voked against Uncle Sam.
= OF course, at the time an at
tempt was made to show that the
people of the State of Panama
planned and executed the revolt.
This pitiful pretense has been
thoroughly exposed by impartial
investigators and we now know
that the revolution was Matched
in Washington and carried
through by the power of Ameri-
can gold and American guns.
The so called fanamanan patriots
were merely puppets purchased
to do the work.
THE PRICE WE'VE PAID.
TO make bad matter worse,
it is row established that the
scandalous transaction was not
only morally wrong but it was
the worst kinda of bad business.
Columbia would have sold US
right Of way, and probably fo1
much less than the revolution
and subsequent negotiations cost
us, AS matter Of fact, we are
not yet through paying, for Col

settle it by turning over $40. .000,,
600, but this, was rejected and
the present administration is
now dealing with the subject.
However. that was not the most
regretable developments of the
imbroglio. The story of the
spoliation of Columbia by the
big Bully Of the North" has
spread through South and Gen.
trail America and has served to
intensity the distrust of the
Yankees. This feeling has had
marked effect on our business
relations with the Southern Re-
publics.
So bitter is their hatred of US
that when the Government of
Ecuador recently attempted to
contract with American engi-
neers to clean up Guyaquil, "the
pest hole of South America. !"
the popu!ace rose in vevolt and
the cabinet was compelled to re-
sign. The hot blooded Latins
preferred death from disease
rather than relief at the hands of
the despised Yankees"
A PEACEFUL. CONQUEST.
European countries are taking
advantage of the situation.
They no longer attempt terri
torialvconquest, but they are de-
voting their energies TO a less
dangerous and a much more prof
table commercial conquest. In-
ternational trade is largely mat
ter of sentiment and South Amer
lean trade is flowing toward the
East instead Of the North.
Germany has been one Of the
chief benefcialies. Not satisfied
with securing a lions share of the
trade, she is planting great COL
onies in Brazil and Argentina.
One German colony in Brazil has
a population of $4,000 or more
than the total population of Ver-
mont.
Our beloved Monroe Doctrine
has become a Kissing and a BY
word throughout all those Re-
publics which it was designed to
protect. Prof. Hiram Bingham,
of Yale, in commenting on this
fact writes as follows:
Gould we see ourselves as our
Southern neighbors see us in the
columns of their daily press,
where the emphasis is still on the
prevalence of murder in the
United States, the astonishing
continuance of lynchings, the
freedom from punishment of the
majority of those who commit
murder. our growing disregard
of the rights of others, bomb out.
RACES, strikes, riots, labor Difficult
ties could we see these things
with their eyes, we should real
ize how bitterly they resent our
assumed right to intervene when
they mis-behave themselves or
when a local revolution becomes
particularly noisy"
PROPOSED ALLIANCE.
Prof. Bingham points out that
we are woefully ignorant of the
marvellous development of our
Southern neighbors. They are
no longer half-savage states, but
are rapidly becoming worlds pow
ers. This is particularly true of
Argentina, Brazil and Chile. and
Prof. Bingham suggests that we
make an alliance with these pow
; ers for the purpose of guarantee

THE CITY COUNCIL
DISCUSS LIGHT and
WATER QUESTIONS
Special Meeting Held tooTalk Over
the Proposition. From the BIackfo0t
Water Company.-TO Lower the
Cost of Lights.

'rhe council held a special meet
ing Tuesday evening and spent most
of the time discussing the PROPOSE
tion made by the Blackfoot Water
company for the sale of the plant to
the city, and the matter of securing
cheaper lights. The two matters
seem to be blending themselves to-
gether, and much of the time was
given to lights. An interesting COM
munication from Manager j. B. Bro
kaw, of the Idaho Consolidated Pow
er company was submitted, stating
that new contract might be enter
ed into at any time for the use Of
more lights at lower rate and this
is what the council wants,-many
more lights at a greatly reduced
rate. Whether they will get togeth-
er on anything remains to be seen,
but it is plain that the council wants
to save the people money on light and
water, and they have authorized some
committee work to a solution of the
questions.
