STAR—SATURDAY, FEB. 12, 1916. PAGE 4. THE SEATTLE STAR (zzz Mntered at Guattia, Wash. Posteffice as second-class matter Ry mall, cut of city, ome your, $4.40; ¢m onthe $1.90; O60 per month up tet mes By carrion, sity Be @ month That Colombia Proposition HE senate proposition to pay Colombia fifteen millions, instead of the 25 she asks, and express both the regrets of Uncle Sam and Columbia over the Panama matter will strike most men who are above the f of idiocy as defiance of common sense, ff not a raid of the United States treasury. If we “took” that Panama canal slip, promoting Panama's revolution from Colombia and aiding and abetting Panama in setting herself up as a republic for the purpose of selling us that canal territory, we owe Colombia twenty-five millions and more, we don’t own the canal and its improvements, and there is due from us a most abject apology. If the contrary is true, we don’t owe Colombia a cent and should tell her to go to the hot place with her blackmailing demands. The senate proposition to whittle down the damage claim and express regrets is, in effect, an ac- knowledgment of our guilt. It is like a man paying a husband 60 per cent of damages claimed for alienating his wife's affections, and it takes a mighty sight keener mind than ours to figure out any honor, justice or decency in it. Yes, Whitney, You’re Right (CHAIRMAN WHITNEY of the King county republican committee is correct In his statement at the republican banquet last night that the non-partisan law, which is being Initiated in this state, ‘“‘is a direct assault upon the republican party.” It is. It is also a direct assault upon the democratic PARTY, and the progressive PARTY, and the socialist PARTY. It is an assault upon the hyphenated citizen who has worshipped the PARTY first, and Americanism as a second consideration. It is an assault upon the Republican-American, the Democratic-American, the Progressive-Ameri- can, the Socialist-American. It is an appeal, however, to plain, virile, true American, who will vote for a county engineer or state treasurer on his fitness for office and not because of the party label he is tagged with. Every politician and political tool is going to be against nonpartisanship In the coming campaign. So be it. They are fighting for life and death. Freedom and independence in politics is the death knell of the professional politicians, and God speed the day when their funeral dirge is sung. The Nomination of Brandeis HE nomination of Louis Brandeis, the “people’s attorney general,” to be a justice of the United States supreme court, came to the American masses as a cooling breeze into the heart of the burning desert of politics. At last an administration has been found which gives thought to the interests of the 90 per cent, as those interests are affected in the highest judicial body of the nation. It is not a surprise that a bitter fight is being made on Mr. Brandeis in the United States senate. Old “Special Privilege” is ‘still well represented in the American house of lords. His representation is bi- partisan. His imperial guards are democrats as well as republicans, altho the first to raise the ‘cry against Brandeis is Wadsworth, republican senator from that most money-ruled of all states, New York. The senate still contains a good sprinkling of progressive senators. Let us hope that they will hold the balance of power when the final vote comes on the nomination of Brandeis to the supreme court.
