Regular Corre tpondent. That Germany has gone too far in her treatment of Venezuela Bud should be rail ed upon to bait is the cOnvic tion'of many 0 f the leading men in Congress. Senator Ba con, when sen yesterday by your iorrespondent, said: "I do not believe that Germany was justified in thisbnmbnrd mentfofSan Carlos). It is , possible the Gel-man naval o' fleer may have exceeded his instructions but I doubt if his government will . disavow his action if this is true. The harsh attitude of Germany is oocri to very severe criticism but at the same time it is probably prudent not to stir up any bad feeling by harsh expreeaion of opinion. If der many wants to blockade the port she may bejustified with the consent of the U. S., but a bombardment is not part of a blockade." Senator El- kins said, "The situation looks alarming to me for the first time. Germany, this country begins to belie re. is not ailing miri.Y uui ujciii.y. Seuator McLaurin, of Missis siDPi. said. "If 1 had my way I would drive Germany and England out of Venezuela. After that the matter might be settled by arbitration. I do not believe that Germany ought to be allowed to take the brutal course she is ta king solely because Venezue la is the weak power. At the State Department it is said that the U. S. will not at present take any cog nizance of Germany's action. It is further admitted that President Roosevelt has, by his definition ot the Monroe Doctrine, placed this country in a most unfortunate posi tion. Relying on that defini tion, any European power can intimidate and bully any any South American repub lic and so long as it does not land troops and attempt the acquisition of territory the United States cannot logical ly protest, at least cannot no so wnnour repuuiauim . .Ai J-: the Roosevelt definition of the Monroe Doctrine. Minis ter Brown is in Washington and is doing all in his power to briner about a peaceful set tlement of the difficulty, but is meeting with grave obstai les which are giving rise to Henous susoicion as to t tie - 1 honesty of Germany's pur pose. That set of men known as the leaders of the '.republican party is perpetrating in the United States Senate one of the most outrageous filibus ters iu parliamentary histo ry. After a test vote by winch it was demonstrated that sev enteen republican Senators and Dracticallv all of the democrats, constituting a maioritv of the Senate, de sire to vote on thestatehocd bill and vote affirmatively, the Senate leaders, Aldrich. Spooner, Hanna, Allison, Hale, Lodge, et hi., have an- nonced that they will not per mit the question to ccme to a vote if their determination necessitates the calling of an pxlia session to make appro priations lor tue regular ex . . . . - penses 01 tne govermenc. Tbey are openly defying the will of tbe majority and are setting themselves up as ora cles whose will . tbe Senate must obey. Among the reasons which are doubtless prompting the continuance of the Statehood blockade by thu republican ring may be cited a desire to prevent antitrust legislation which will prove inimical to the interests which bnve plac ed these men in the Senate and the hope of preventing the passage of the Immigra tion bill and other legisla tion in the interests of t h e whole people. With a view to furthercom plicating the anti trust situa tion the members of the Sn ate are now preparing a nnm ber of anti-trust bills which it is well understood are in tended to bend off the admin istration measure just repor ted to the house and likely to pass with the help of dem ocratic votes at an early date. When it gets to the Sen ate, however, it will be met with the argument that one cisuse has been covered in the Elkins bill, another in some other, and so on and it is the hope of the republican leaders to in this way pre vent all effective anti-trust legislation even supposing their fight on the Statehoo1 bill should tot prove suffi cient to do so. The Secretary of State has finally concluded terms with Colombia and has sent to the Senate o treaty which seems to meet with general appro- val. Under the conditions o1 the convention, this country is to lease the required zone of land for one hundred year with the privilege of renew nl at the snme rental, at pleasure. The annual rentn which is to begin five years after the ratification of the treat v is to be $260,000 and the cash payment to be made as soon as the convention is ratified by both Congresses will be $10,000,000. This with the $40,000,000 which it is agreed to pa the Pana ma Cunnl Company, w il make an immediatecash pay ment of $50,000,000. At the end of sixty years the entire property of the Panama Rai way will revert to the United States. All tonnage and oth er water dues from the har bors of Panama and Colon will be paid directly to the United State.

Afterthat arrangements are to be made for policing, etc., by a joint high commission but it is provided that in no instance will a citizen of the United States be tried by other than a court maintained by his own Government. The Cuban treaty is still the executive business before the Seunte and Senator Col Ion is watching for an op- poitunity to secure an execu tive session of several hours duration when it is believed the convention will be prom ptly ratified. Several mem hers of the Senate have ex pressed to your correspond ent their approval of the Colombian treaty and its ratification is practically as sured as soon as tbe Cuban treaty is disposed of. The Philippine committee has amended the House hill owering the duty on Philip pine importB so that it now provides that 50 pr cent of he Dingley rates shall be collected onPhillippinesngar tobacco and all other Phil ippine product shall be sub mitted to this country duty ree. As sugar ana tobacco constitute almost the entire exportable products of the islands, however, the amend ment is a concession of 25 per cent to the sugar and tobacco interests, at the ex pense of the Philippines.

H is an illns tration of the dangerund (lis comfort of a good man with a fool idea and a hard head. Apparently, jndgingfrora the latest news from Washing ton, he intends to continue to vaunt before the country his notion of the equality of the white and negro races. We are told in Washington dispatches that he has invi ted his colored appointee as assistant distnetattorney at Boston to visit the White House with his wife and at the reception yesterday at the White House the colored recorder of deeds, of .Wash ngton. D, C, was present with two female relatives This iH about the limit. There h IiiHt one thing for the Southern people to do. There is no use of their indul ging in any idle abuse or foa ming at the mouth with rage. They cannot defeat Mr.Roos velt for re-election. T hey can prove in a manner en tirely decorous and lawful their continued rejection of the idea of equality between the rates. They can and should hold themselves abso lutely aloof from any social recognition of Mr. Roosevelt. Socially, he has put himself on equality with the 'colored people aud he should he trea ted by Southern people ,pres cisely as if he was a eolored official. This feeling should be illustrated by our repre sentatives at Washington, bothintheSenateaml House, Their relation with the presi dent should be absolutely tormal from this time on and should be confined to such business iih it U necessary to trnnsnet with him. If h e should come South he should be left to associate with the negroes, whom he has chosen to regard as equals and fit companions for himself and family. In other words, as Mr. Roosevelt hns chosen to put himself on equality with the neirro he should be treat ed in all respects bv South ern people precisely as if he were a negro of good charac ter and representing the gov ernment that is, politely and kindly when kindness is necessary an n with absolute indications that he is not of our race or in any respect so cially an equal with us or a fit associate for us or any of ours. We cannot see any other position the Southern people or their representatives to take unless they want to rec ognize the principle that the snme white man can as sociate 011 terms of social and personal equality with Southern white people and their families and colored people and thii families.
