BRrAEs VIEW OF
COLUMBIA QUESTION

Secretary of State Bryan has
made a statement about the Colom-
bian trsaty, in answer to recent
crititi:ms Of Colonel Roosevelt. Sin
C, nsidering the treaty with Colon
bia, laid before the senate for rati-
fc .tion'' said Mr.. Bryan, sit is not
necessary to examine into the mer-
its of the controversy relating TO
the action of the United States in
1903. The present treaty deals
with the situation as it presents
itself todey, and is fully justified,
no matter what theory one may
adopt as to the course pursued by
Onr nation in connection with the
separation of Panama from Colom-
bia. 1t is contendeJ by some that
the action taken by the United
States was based upon the necessI-
ties of the case, and those nece 81
ties, as stated by those who TAXI
this position, are. that Colombia
was not able to build the canal her
aself and was not willing to sell to
the United States upon reasonable
terms the right to build the canal.
Those who take tais position
put the United States in TIE atti-
tude of exercising the right Of emi-
nent domain in the interests of the
worlds commerce: hut the exercise
of the right of emihent domain
does not relieve those whn exercise
it of liability for actual damages
suffered, Take. for example, the
condemnation to a block nf ground
for a public building. Suppose
that every LOT owner excepting one
is willing to sell his Ian | to the
government at its market vslua,
but that one of the lot owners,
whose lot is necessary to the erec-
tion of the building asks mUre than
the land is worth. The government
proceeds TO condemn the property,
but it does not attempt to escape
from the payment of what the land
is actually worth, and the actual
value of the property is not reduc-
ed one dollar Ivy any effort that the
owner mas make to obtain for
it more than it is worth.
IF it is contendei that the price
offered by the United States prior
to Panama's separation vas a rea-
sonable one and that Colombia
ought to have accepted it, that
valuation cannot be reduced mere
ly because Colombia was not will
ing to accept the offer. The price
then offered was approximately
$170,000.0 600 ($10, 900, O00) cash
and $250,000 a year for a hun re
years, which could be capitalized at
t$7,500, O00). But when this price
was offered it wa understood that
Colombia would retain the state
