be. and if the Commission act
with promptness work should
commence very soon early in
the spring. The secretary of war,
on Thursday, authorized the ex
penditure of $152,000 in remov
ing obstructions in the Columbia
river between The Dalles and the
big eddy. This shows a willing
ness on the part of the govern
ment to push the work to a com
pletion in a hurry, and it is hoped
the state officers will put no im
pediment in the way of this work.
It is to be regretted that the port
age road project was not side
tracked. But the O. R. & N.
Co. are opposed to this road, and
they can be depended upon for
raising all the obstructions that
may be necessary.

Colombia has just presented to
Secretary Hay a dignified pro
test and appeal for a reconsidera
tion of the recognition extended
to the new Republic of Panama.
Although there is no possible
chance of its being granted, still
the protest is worthy of being
considered. Colombia is a coun
try very little known in the Uni
ted States, but one that has a
. good record among the progres
sive nations , ol the world. In
1863, by a revolution, she placed
a liberal government in power,
and from that time on has- car
ried on a war against the most
implacable foe a government has
ever had to contend with. The
fight was made to redeem the
people from the bondage of su
perstition, and to rid the ctuntry
of the frightful incubus of priestly
domination in national affairs.
After 20 years struggle, the
schools of the country are free
from the power of the church,
are entirely under secular con
trol, contain over one hundred
thousand scholar!, and one-fifth
of the entire revenues of the
country are. used yearly for their
support. A record like this
should ' make every progressive
nation of the world friendly to
thr TTtiire1 States nf PnlnmMa
