The Panama Canal question.

LONDON, October 26th.-Ths Times, reply
ing to Secretary Blaine's Panama letter,
while conceding the right of the United
States TO take precautions that the canal
shall not be used in any way hostile TO them,
ard while admitting that as arguments for
its neutrality Biaines note is unanswerabls,
nevertheless it fails to see why there should
be any rspugnance to aliew England or
France TO join in the guarantee. Mr.. Biaine's
assumption that the American possessions on
the Pacific would supply the larger part of.
the traffic of the canal is very questionable /;
indeed it scarcely admits of doubt that the
great bulk Of vessels which for some years to
come would pass through the canal would be
English. Great though the interests Of
America ara in this matter, and necessary
though it is for her that there should be free
communication between her Atlantic and
Pacific States, this does not efface the fact
that England also is at once an Atlantic and
Pacific power, and that she is bound to have
regard to the welfare of her subjects In Brit
ish Columbia, and to think of securing free
access to her Australian colonies. The neu-
Trailing of the canal would be for the bene-
ct of all the States of the world, and
we fail to gather from this communication
any solid objection to allowing the European
powers to join in the werk. Any statement
hereafter made by Mr.. Lowell OF the views
OF his government In regard co tne uatsst,
which has almost ceased TO be purely matter
of abstract politics, will command attention
but ne must expect to find Englishmen fully
unprepsred TO see any great difference be.

Panama, aud at loss to conceive what in.

The gentlemen now occupying the

against him as an able, upright and
just Judge. His promotion to tie

\ NEW STYLE OF CABoO.E =
The Hamilton (OuD Times gives
description of i new stSIo OF
''cahoosu" recently introduced III on
the Great " o-I.In railway. They
are smaIl.r and lighter in conAruc-
ton than those generally in us.,
mounted on four heels instead of
eight, anal have rontrtul brakes al
each end. The principal feature is
sort OF observatory, or lookout,
occupying the center and which is
reached by ASCENDING three steps.
When mounted in this "crow'n ucet'
the conductor can survey the track
in any direction anil observe the
signals or any obstruction which
may be IN the way OF tho traia.
The lookout has tour sides, which
are glazed, aud presents quite a
prominent feature at the rear Of
freight tram. The comfort Of the
conductor and brakemen has been
secured BY the use of sleeping
hunks, into which the men can
turn at The end Of their journey.
There is also stove for heating
the car and the mems victuals,
wasbstand, water can, etc, and a
supply oftools to be used il neces-
gary.

WE have recently received the
annual report of the Board of I'M
migration of this State, from which
We extract the following:
Twenty-one thousand two hun
bred and nine immigrants arrived
III this State during the year 1880
to settle, of these 8,O79 where from
Germany, Norway 4,274, Sweden
$3.50, Poland 2,l66, Denmark. l.
545, Holland 1901, Bohemia, / 1853,
Ireland 1875, England 1913, France
lao, Scotland 81.
"The greater part of the immi-
grants were people Of means and
belonged TO the better class Of
society III their native country. The
average amount Of cash brought by
each Immigrant is estimated from
reliable sources at from 500 to $40.
Taking the lowest estimate as q
basis, we find that not less than
81 ,972,540 were brought into Wis
con'in by the ol.2o9 persons who
will mike this State their future
home. If to this be added their
ability to work, their skill, energy,
and enterprise, it must be plain that
the benefit to be derived from this
great influx of people Is of very
great moment to the growth and
prosperity ofshe State"
