THE PENDING TREATY
WITH COLOMBIA
(Continued from Monday)
Are We Trespassers In the Zone?
But the present administration,
which is now urging the ratification
of this treaty, does not really believe
in the theory of guilty co operation on
the part of the United States, or any
one in an official position to repre
sent the United States. For it it did,
the present treaty becomes a mere sub
terfuge, and far from being generous,
it does not right a moiety of the
wrongs which the United Stales has
inbicted upon Colombia. Under this
theory, the treaty with Panama is
no jusu.ication for our possession of
the Canal Zone, we are without title
or color of title, but by reason of the
fraud are trespassers and have no
right to the improvements which we
have placed there. This is ft well
known principle of English and Amer
ican law and was recognized by the
spremo court of the United States in
Kutter v. Smith, 2 Wall., 491. The
canal having been built on Colombian
soil by a wilful trespasser belongs to
Colombia and not to the United States,
as those not parties to the plot had
all along supposed. Though restitu
tion would be at this stage disap
pointing, it would be a legal duty, if
the United States conspired with
Panama to oust Colombia from her
rightful possession of the Isthmus.
The present administration is not,
however, prepared to admit any facts
which will involve the United States
to such a degree or smirch a preced
ing administration to such an extent.
And fortunately such facts do not
exist. The administration appears,
however, to be willing that "in order
to satisfy the sense of justice of Co
lombia," the United States should be
mulcted moderately and that a pre
ceding administration shall be smirch
ed gently. The offer to Colombia to
arbitrate the whole controversy is not
