THE COLOMBIA TREATY

Those who were willing to settle the existing diff ference between this country and Colombia growing out of the Panama affair by the payment of money to Col orbaa but objected to that part the treaty in which the United States expressed regret and offered apologies ought to be satisfied with the draft of the treaty which has just been approved in committee
 As the apology clause Is recorded, the high con- tracting parties or themselves the people of the respective countries express regret that anything hap pened to interrupt or mar the relations of friendship between them This leaves 1t open to those who still approve the seizure of the strip to that it was Colombia that made all the trouble. while Colombia
 will be equally free to charge the strained relations to the United States in general and to Col Roosevelt in particular Each side may join in the regretting with out admitting responsibility for the regewhch ought to make for a better feeling all around
 Aside from the question of obligation is to the interests of the United States to cultivate this better feeling at this tme both for the sake of colombia's friendship and for the influence will have upon South America in general.
 Great effort has been made n this country to aay the feeling among South American Republics that the United States cannot be trusted deal justly with them. They are beginning to accept that view but they have not forgotten the circumstances under which the Canal strip suddenly became American territory with the help of specially inspired revolution. nor will Col omba ever let them forget it while coiombia's calm remains unsatisfied.

THE NEW FIGHT ON PORK
fChicaro Trlbune)

 Probably s5ooOOO0oO of public funds out of Ss5o'- ooOoOo expended havo been wasted on waterway pro- ects Any jury of taxpaying citizens familiar with the record would that estimate Last session two hills reported to Congreas, aggregating $s2,oooOoo were defeated and S5ooOooo was turned over to army engineers to distribute or that amount Gen. Kingman chief engineer gave $2l2ssooo or 45 per cent or the funds distributed to aix rivers whose combined actual commerce reaches less than 10 per cent of the Superior Duluth tonnage Six other rivers. with insignificant commerce. were given ss22oOOO from the same fund Twothrds of tho allotment largely went to deserted and trnfnckess rivers"
 This is the striking assertion of the best posted man on waterway expenditures in Congress Represen tatice James Frear of Wisconsin Frear Is the most formidable foo of the river and harbor waste in the country because he speaks with the weight of facts and he opened the campaign again the pork barrel in the Congress on Jan. TO- with brcadsde that we do not believe any lobby wii be able to withstand.
 But waterway pork is rich. and the interests seek ing it are avid powerful widespread, and well organ ized They arc ntrenched The Tribune has pointed out. in the time honored system of log rolling
 Only an aroused public opinion, expressed vigor- ously and persIstenty wl bring about the defeat of another pork barrel measure and. what is more im- portant and in fact necessary will bring about the two underlying reforms already pointed out in The Tr bune's campaign against waste In waterway eSDendit. ure
 These reforms are first the establishment of a wa tergay high commission to make sweeping survey of existing projects and to outline and administer practical plan for real waterway Improvement and sec ond the establishment In Congress of budget system
 The chief respoasIbHty for the achievement of these reforms lies upon agents the disinterested press and those Senators and Representatives in Con gres who have the breadth of view and the courage to combat local and special pressure behalf of one of the worst evils with which the country has to deal
 Representative Frears remarkable speech of Jan 10 to be found in the Congressional Record of Jan 1s pages 115 to 1s5 inclusive. is compendium of facts on waterway graft It should be read by all Congressman. editors and citizens who willing to take part n the fight against the gigantic waste of system.
 The campaign Is now on, and time should be lost for 1t is in committee that the critical fight ing is done At the last session the supporting Frear n the and Senators Burton and Kenyon in the Senate defeated ss2.oooooo bill and saved ssOOOOooo on expenditure Better results can be obtained In the present session because of the knowledge of the pork evil is spreading

sENAroR LoDeE pREDIcTs wAR

Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, who is not jingo by any means is reported as predicting that war will fol- low if the United States abandOns the principle that it's ports are open to all nations and that it's citizens are free 10 travel upon merchantmen of beli:gerent na- tions armed solely for defense Such abandonment the Senator claims would be a most unneutral act as the step would make this country ally of any begerent
 whose merchant marine has been swept from the seas. There may be some virtue in Senator Lodges argument but we fail to see the unneutrality of the act The right of merchanmen to arm for defense has long been conceded by the nations at war and it must also be conceded that if the citizens of this or other nations travel on such vessels they incur the risk that would follow in case of attack It is quite probable, however that the abandonment of the principle to which sena tor Lodge objects would operate in favor of Germany but that 1t could be cassed unneural seems to be putting an exceedingly fine point upon 1t

Luke MeLuke says

There was @ time when mother al- ways used the slipper and father used strap on the children when they were naughty or d!sobedient And the result was a flock of obedient, weil.trained children But these days, when the children do anything wrong, mother won't whip them herself and she won't lot father whip them. She holds that the poor children should not be punished just because they happened to inherit Q few bad traits from their ornery father.
 Some men interpret the Biblical in- struction to let your light shine be- fore men" to mean that they should so out and get lit up every night.
 We all need many things, and We all believe that we are entitled to- more. but we cant understand why other people are not satisfied with what they have.
 A fellow is wasting Q lot of valua- ble time when he tells girl that he isn't worthy of her. If he would keep his mouth shut and marry her. she would soon discover that fact for her self.
 The Economic Conditions" that keep a man poor usually wear skirts.
 Getting married and getting appen. dicitis arc both mighty serious mat ters. But appendicitis can only hap pen to you once.
 If Congress passed law compell- ing every man in the country to cut out either wine. women. or song, you would be surprised to discover how many men there are who never cared darn about singing.
 A woman never gives man asquare deal. When father borrows mothers umbrella in the morning. and comes home without lt. mother always ac- cuses him of having lent 1t to some sn!ppy stenographer; when the truth of the matter is father loft 1t in the first saloon be dropped in on his way down town

FIRE CHIEF TREIMAws VIEWS

 fire protection for every part of the city The Juneau fire department is maintained most economically. and citizens can testify to its efficiency Its work during the recent storms and extraordinarily cold weather was most commendabe and that the departments energy and vigilance is appreciated by the people Of Juneau goes without saying The city council should be liberal ln dealing with fire department affairs Certainly an eaeentiy equipped and manned department is spen did insurance against loss by fire and The Empire be- lieves that this is the view held by great majority of the people The fire department should be prepared to fight fire and. unless 1t be. sometime disaster that might entail heavy property loss and perhaps loss of life may eyentuate By all let the fire depart men be put in state Of preparedness The personnel of the department is excellent and may be dependable up on Go meet any emergency if they have the mans to meet 1t with at their command
 It should not be a very difficult matter to solve the problem of adequate fire protection. provided care iu and thorough survey of the different plans proposed be made When this shall have been done, the city council should have little trouble in deciding upon which is the best.
