BAD DEFEAT IN ELECTION
Colombians Condemn Agreement
About Panama and Reyes Resigns
and Goes to Europe to
Avoid Revolution.
.'OI..ON. Juno IS. Advices from Carta
genla. Colombia, confirm previous re
ports that General Rafael Reyes, Presi
dent of Colombia, has abandoned office
and sailed for Europe.
The advices state that the President's
trip to Europe Is known to have been
approved by the President-designate.
Genera! Holguin. and the Ministry, and
It is General Reyes- intention to return
for the meeting of Congress July 20, if
a. majority of his countrymen so desire,
or in case of a disturbance of the peace.
The recent trend of affairs In Colom
bia makes the departure of the Presi
dent a matter of no surprise, for It bus
been openly asserted that either his
voluntary resignation from office or a
revolutionary coup appeared to be the
only solution for Colombia's political
troubles.
The support given by President Reyes
to the T'nltttd States-Panama-Colombia
treaty haa been partly responsible for
the prevailing dissatisfaction. The
treaty is objectionable to the general
public, and In the Congressional elec
tion held the latter part of May the
arovemment party was signally defeated.
After this election a committee of the
victorious Republicans had a confer
ence with President Reyes concerning1
the details of which the following
statement was made:'
"General Reyes frankly confessed
thst conditions were not satisfactory
and that there was alarming- discon
tent everywhere, and he admitted that
these were menaces to the maintenance
of peace. He declared that his determi
nation to withdraw from the executive
bead of the Government was unalter
able. In proof of which he would, pre
sent to the Colombian Congress his
formal- resignation from office on July
1. Further, he declared, he would re
mime the presidency only in case of a
revolution, or to maintain peace."

GERMAN NAVAL ARMAMENT
"Why Does Germany Think It Nec
essary to Build So Great a Navy?"
ASTORIA, Or., June 18. (To the
Editor.) In answer to the above ques
tion I would say that the government
of Germany, has repeatedly stated that
it was for the defense of Germany and
the protection of Its commerce. Any
one knowing this and still asking such
a question states' thereby that -he
doubts the sincerity of the answer giv
en by the government.
Now every government must be the
judge of what Is required In the way
of naval defense. The German gov
ernment has mapped out a programme
and openly stated to the world that it
requires 38 battleships. 20 armored
cruisers. 38 small cruisers. 144 torpedo
boats, etc. A battleship and cruiser is to
be retired at the age of 20. and a torpedo
boat at the age of 12 years. Past history
has proven that this is a conservative es
timate. Now Germany If it already possessed
these ships would have to build yearly
two battleships, one armored and two
small cruisers; also 12 torpedoboats.
At the time the programme was
adopted she did not possess, and she
does not now possess, the number the
government says are required for a
proper defense of the country.
It must also be taken into consid
eration that a great majority of the
ships really in commission are more
fit for the junk pile than for fighting
with a first-class navy. ,
Actually speaking, she has in com
mission and launched but not as yet In
commission, a total of enly 28 battle
ships over 10,000 tons, 10 armored
Cruisers, 33 other cruisers less than 20
years old, and 88 torpedoboats less
than 12 years old. She Is now build
ing yearly three battleships, one ar
mored and two small cruisers; also 12
torpedoboats.
Vessels now in commission are fast
becoming obsolete, and therefore It
will be necessary for Germany to build
more vessels than are at present being
constructed ever to attain the strength
required as stated above; or would you
advise the German government, in case
of war, to send her splendid fighting
material, as represented by her men,
out to meet the enemy in vessels that
would be very little better than float
ing coffins?
Germany a. few years ago gave out
the promise that all ships built in the
near future must be first-class, and
every one knows that only first-class
ships can expect to figure in the fight
ing line. Now Germany has an army
of 600.000 and a reserve of 4,000,000
men, and when those 4.000,000 men are
called out, the equipment is there for
them. She has an active force In the
navy of 60,000 men and a reserve force
of 200,000. If the 200,000 are called
out, she has no ships to place but a
small percentage on, even If she
manned old vessels and new. This Is
not a proper state of affairs. Men
without ships In a naval war don't
count.
Now whom is Germany going to
fight? In answer to that I would say:
Any one that wishes to declare war,
or Impose upon her to such an extent
that she is compelled to declare war.
She Is no different from any other
country in this respect. She Is not
looking for trouble. If she wanted
war. opportunities have not been
wanting in the last 3S years, but her
very strength has prevented any one
from Imposing on her, and prevented
war. You rati only judge a nation' by
Its record, and the record of Germany
as a teace-lovlng nation has been well
established by h.er record since the
foundation of the empire.

Yet Another Reply to the Question,
PORTLAND, June 18. (To the Edi
tor.) I am a citizen and keep a daily
paper to keep posted in order that I
may exercise the function of a good
citizen; but being a laborer and not a
politician, I have time and money only
for one, which Is the Evening Tele
gram. But I read The Oregon lan occasional!-.
In this morning's Ore
gonian I read the letter of Mr. F.
Fuchs. also your editorial in which
you say: "The letter (Mr. Fuchs')
shows a hostility on the part of our
Gernjan people towards the English,
that we had not supposed could exist."
In reply I will say, if you will kindly
grant me the space, that your editorial
shows a hostility towards the Germans
that we had not supposed could exist.
You say: "We know why she (Ger
many) maintains the greatest army in
the world. But why does she also
want so great a navy? We know why
England wants a great navy. It Is
precisely for the same reason that Ger
many supports a great army. It Is for
the purpose of defense. Germany must
find defense in her army; England in
her navy."
As to your statement that Germany
finds her defense in her army and Eng
land in her navy. I differ with you in
this: Germany must depend on a strong
army to maintain her territorial in
tegrity, her very existence. Sur
rounded as she is by powerful nations
desirous of a slice of .Germany for
more power and more revenue for her
rulers. On the other hand. England
can defend herself more easily with
coast fortifications and an army, sur
rounded as she is with water, than
Germany tn her position. According to
my understanding, the powerful navy
is for the purpose of protecting de
pendencies and commerce. If I am
right. England does need a large navy
for that purpose. So do we. So does
Germany. Or does not Germany pos
sess the same right to possess a navy
if she can pay for It, as well as we
and England? If I am wrong, what
on earth do we need a powerful navy
