A Doubtful Dream.

The Daily News, referring to Blaine S
circular to the Central and South Ameri-
can republics says: That the American
interests in the Pacific seaboard have
greatly increased since the Clayton
Bulwer treaty was signed admits Of no
doubt, but it is quite an open question
whether England is not interested in the
Panama Canal yet more deeply. That
England, with her vast American posses
sions and carrying trade, should be-
come party to any agreement yield
ing the canal into American hands and
acknowledge the suzerainty of the
United States of the entire western
hemisphere, is a dream beyond the do
main Of practical politics.
