WASHINGTON NEWS
BY Edward Heating.

During the next month or two there
will be a great deal In the newspa'
pers about the Columbian treaty.
Colonel Roosevelt opened the bonn
bardment the other day when he re,
turned from Europe. He said lot
of things about the treaty and the
foreign policy Of President Wilson,
which neither the colonel nor any
other sane man. believes.
The nations of the earth are NOT
laughing at the United States, as
Mr.. Roosevelt suggests. They never
respected us more or feared us less.
We have ceased to bully the little
fellows, but that has caused us to
carry our heads a bit higher when
we are dealing with the big fellows.
We are showing the world that we
are strong enough to do right, even

We can be just without being sus-

Let us consider the history of this
controversy with Colombia:

For hundred years the United

we guaranteed Its territorial integri-
ty and at oil times we have insisted
that 1t was one of the beneficiaries
of the Monroe Doctrine.
Some years ago Colombia granted
French capitalists franchise to
build canal across Panama. The
Frenchmen invested 500, 900 900 and

tract or forfeit their property Nat
urally the contractors struggled in
vain with the Columbian authorities
and then they turned to certain as
tute gentlemen in New York who
possessed plenty of money and vast
quantities of political pull The New
Workers purchased the Frenchmen s
holdings for a song and opened up
negotiations with the United States
government with a view to unloading
on Uncle Sam.
Columbia warned the Washington
authorities that the Wall street men
had nothing to sell, pointing out
that the Frenchmen had forfeited
their franchise by failure to com.
ply with it's terms.
A Handmade Revolution.
President Roosevelt saw fit to ig-
| more Colombia. A made to order rev.
Olution was arranged in Panama and
a government was set up, backed by
| American bayonets and supported by
| American money. The Wall street
gentlemen unloaded their white ele-
phant, receiving $4,000 900 for the
Frenchmen's claim, and the Unit
ed States obligated itself to pay the
Panama government considerable
sums of money for an indefinite per-
iod.
Colombia continued to protest but
its representations were dismissed as
'palpable attempts at blackmail"
We got away with it" because
Colombia was too weak to fight, but
we suffered immeasureably in the
good opinion of the world, particular
ly among the Spanish-speaking peo
pies. Throughout South America
press and people referred to the in
cident as ''the rape of Colombia" and
described Uncle Sam as "the hog of
the north" Europeans shrugged their
shoulders and dismissed the affair
as another evidence of the fact that
the United States was willing to en-
force the Monroe Doctrine against
The Taft administration, realizing
that we were in an untenable posi-
ton, sought to placate Columbia, but
did not meet with much success and
the problem was passed along to
Wilson
The latter approached the subject
from an entirely new and unique
point of view. He insisted that the
United States must deal with other
nations exactly as an honorable gen.
tleman deals with friends and busi-
ness associates. We could not aban
don the canal and we could not
withdraw the guarantees we had Civ
en- the make-believe republic of Pan
anna. All this was explained to the
Colombians and once Wilson and Bry
an had gained their confidence they
manifested disposition to meet
this country more than half way.
That Word, Regrets"
The result was the drafting of the
much-talked-of Colombia treaty.
That document frankly declares that
this country regrets" that the friend
ly relations between the United
States and Colombia have been dis
turbed and It provides for the pay
ment of s25 100000 in full payment
of Colon bia's S claims.
The opponents of the Wilson ad-
ministration make much capital of
that word regrets. We are told
that Uncle Sam is asked to get down
on his knees and apologize to third
rate nation and in the holy name of
patriotism we are called on to defeat
the treaty. OF course, that is all
nonsense. The United States can al
ways afford to do the big, generous
thing, and that is what it will do
when it puts the seal of approval
on the Colombian treaty.
