in which that gentleman was made to
appear as a great disparager of Pres
ident Cleveland's administration. He
was also credited with having ex-
pressed very gloomy opinions as to the
prospects of the Democracy, State and
National. Mr.. Camden went to the
trouble to deny in toto the publica-
tion-an unnecessary proceeding, for
the alleged interview showed its false
hood on the face Of ii.

WE heartily approve of the action
of the Democratic County Executive
Committee in arranging for precinct
meetings to select delegates to the
Grafton convention By this means
each precinct can send its own direct
representatives-those who are elect
ed by majority of the voters. And
the plan that has been adopted for the
Grafton convention is the one that
should be followed for delegates to the
State and the several district conven-
tions.

SOME LOCAL FAfLINGS.

All who are cOnVerSant with the inner
workings of Honolulu society are aware
that the practice of living beyond ones
income prevails to very large extent,
perhaps more so than is the case in most
communities of similar dimensions
Much of this is no doubt due to the ease
with which almost all requirements can
be obtained on credit, a fact which is
mainly the outcome of the passport sys-
tenn. A great deal of it is also to be ac-
counted for by the prevalence of gam
bling, especially among young men.
Gambling among Chinese is put down
by the strong arm of the law whenever
An opportunity arises, but it very rarely
happens that gam blers of other nation
alities are interfered with by the police
This is to be regretted not only in the
interests of society, but of the offenders
themselves, for in this way a general
loOseness as regards monetary Obliga-
tons is generated, eliminating in some
cases in actual criminality. The latter
is rarely developed in an individual
otherwise than gradually, and causes
tending to promote it might often be re-
moved. Prevention is better than cure,
and the removal of temptation is one of
the best means of prevention. If the
passport system, which is inconsistent
with English and American ideas of
freedom, were abolished, there would be
less credit given and perhaps less money
lost in consequence. The people who
come into the Kingdom are of more con-
Germ than than those who 90 out of it,
and it would therefore be a greater adj
vantage if some scrutiny were exercised
upon these. We do not mean the sub
stitution of an inward for an outward
passport system, but the conclusion of
international agreements whereby this
country could no longer serve as Getty
of refugee for such as find further resi-
dence on their native soil inconvenient
Extradition treaties have most bene-
fetal fleet upon the morality OF small
outlying States.

Will that ever be completed ?'
eyes, the Panama Canal will be fin
ished inside of five years. The canal
viii be about As miles in length, and
while it was intended as tide-water
canal the intention now is to have locks.
In 1884 1 had the honor of lunch with
De Lesseps at his home in Paris. AT
that time he scOfed the idea of a lock
canal. A tide-water canal being impos-
sible, owing to the immense bodies of
water flowing through the Chagres river
in flood time, they, the "Frenchmen,"
much to their chagrin, adopted the lock
plan. The course of the canal from
| coast to coast is just "A kilometers.
There are to be eight locks, known as
the Eifel locks, designed and to be
built by NJ. Eiffel, builder of the great
Eiffel Tower at Paris. It's claimed that
the adoption of locks will save the exca-
walton of 40 900, 900 cubic meters, which
would cost $75,OOO,OOO. Therefore, NJ.
Eifel's undertaking can be appreciated
by the stockholders"
"What will the canal cost %
"There are about 400, 900 stockholders,
| mostly Frenchmen of moderate means.
| They have subscribed and paid in thus
far $21O, 5000. They have now on
hand $35,0OO,O00. It is thought they
will need still another 500, 100000 to
! complete the work. 1t is simply a
| question of money, and inasmuch as the
Frenchmen are in SO much, and as they
are the most thrifty people in the world,
they will put it up and finish the canal.
| The building of the Nicaragua will cut
| their profits, and L, therefore, do not
| believe the Panama Canal will pay.
They may, however, buy the control of
| the Nicaragua Canal and then not finish
| it. The Americans would probably
| take profit and not be compelled to
| build the canal. One has but to look at
the map to see the Importance of these
canals to Texas and Louisiana, as before
/ stated"

THE TWO CANALS.
Interesting Interview Respecting
Panama and Nicaragua.

Thomas j. Hurley, who has been up
to the first of this year the Second Vice
President and General Manager in
charge of the construction of the great
Aguan Canal in Honduras, Central
America, with headquarters at Tuxillo,
Honduras, was recently interviewed in
Texas with the following result:
"Will the Nicaragua canal be built ?''
eyes; it will surely be built. | was
requested to visit the proposed route last
October in the interest of some Eastern
capitalists, and was much pleased with
what l saw. The present work is in
charge of Chief Engineer Peary, thor
ough going, practical man. 1t is esti-
mated that the canal will cost $50, 900 900.
The old MOnocal line, located in 1885,
has been thus far the scene of the pres
ent work, and on this portion of the
Isthmus transit and level lines have
been run and cross sections taken every
1000 feet. Aside from the engineering
details the meteorological and geological
conditions of each section have been
carefully studied, and borings extending
below the bottom of the proposed canal
have been made along the entire line.
The San Jose river is used on the Allan
tic side, up and to the Lake of Nicaragua,
which will be the summit level, and
which can always furnish a volume of
watersuff1cient to float the largest yes
sci. An immense dam is to be built at
Ochoa to protect slack water navigation
"a distance of sixty-four miles on the San

run from the mouth of the Cano Macha-
cho easterly to the head waters OF the
San Francisco. Greytown will be- the

PROSPECTUS.

The increasing prosperity of the REGISTERS
gratifying to its owners but its circulation
isn't tenth part of what we intend 1t shall
be. The REGISTER is the highest authority in
the world on the true history and pedigree of
the American road horse. AS such,it deserves
and must get the very widest circulation. Its
Horse Department is worth many times its
subscription price - valuable, instructive,
entertaining. From all over the country we
have an immense amount of original matter
coming in tor this department; and we ex-
pect to be able to give soon the history
and pedigree of the following famous hors
his hitherto unknown; Old Pilot, st. Law
renee, Columbus, dam of Royal George, North
American or Bullock Horse; Lady Surrey dam
of Henry Clay; Tom Thumb, g. $. OF Green's
Bashaw; Leonidas, reputed g. 5. of Biggarts
Rather, and many others.
This is eminently the kind of informa-
ton that all gentlemen of intelligence desire,
and none such American can well afford to be
without this paper. 1t is the American gentle
mans paper for the history OF the horse. In
all such information there is included much
local and general history. Indeed, the trac-
ing of some OF these pedigrees seems very
similar to romance in which one sees not
only the animated bearing and noble action
OF the horse, but also the life and beauty OF
the country through which he travels.

Mr.. THOMSON AGAIN.

Mr.. Thomson has walked up after a
week or two's repose and said something.
He says: "Mr. Battell is wrong in trying
to make it appear that it was Mr.. Mar
tins first letter that caused him to write
Mr.. Vail" Mr.. Battell is not wrong in
so trying to make it appear. Mr.. Mar
tins first letter caused us to do precisely
that, and for the reason stated; but it
was our second letter to Mr.. Vail that
caused us to write, instead of the first.
The composition would suggest it was
the first. This slight inaccuracy we per-
ceived as soon as we saw our article, the
proof of which we did not see.
We first wrote to Mr.. Vail because we
determined to trace the dam of Thomas
Jefferson. The answer got from him, and
published, elected the letter from Mr..
Martin, and from this we presume came
the notice to Mr.. Thomson that set him
at work. Certainly Mr.. Thomson drew on
our letter from Mr.. Vail. He gave no
credit whatever. The dishonesty of this
we criticised. So far as his work is con-
Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1888-06-15

cerned, we are very glad he took the mat
ter up, and hope he will follow it to some
certain conclusion.
Mr.. Thomas says further: "Again Is
Mr.. Battell wrong, when he says said
that they could not recognize horses af-
ter seven or eight years." Mr.. Battell is
not wrong in this; for gray horses are
horses, and the difference is certainly a
fancied one of Mr.. Thomson. Any horse
man can recognize gray horse as quick
as any other.
Mr.. Thomson denies that he left out
the testimony on Ethan's dam and Nor
gan Paddy.
In due time the infinite amount of testi-
mony, which he has kept back from the
readers of the Mirror and Farmer, on the
dam of Ethan Allen, will be referred to /;
all of it hopelessly against his theory.
We will just mention, now, the testimony
of Justus Rising, that the mare was own
ed by Rufus Rising after 1884, and had
her colt after that; the testimony of Mr.
Balcom of Massachusetts, to the same eff
feet; the first testimony of VIM. II. Bal
com, that she was not in foal when be
bought her.
AS to Morgan Paddy that, Mr.. Thorn
son says, and we presume correctly, was
the horse Young Traveller. We told Mr.
Thomson that this horse, Young Travel.
Ter, was known as the Guernsey Horse
and advertised in 1916 as descendant OF
Justin Morgan. Mr.. Thomson seemed
much interested, and, of course, was much
surprised Though he ought not to have
BEEN, for it overset all his theories. He
ought not to have been, for any one witt
any sense would have guessed this horse
Young Traveller, Morgan horse from
his description, and the description of hi:
stock; and the more especially. so, thai
he lived at the right time, and in the righ
place and could hardly have been any
thing else.
Any information that Mr.. Thomson OIL
anybody else can give us about any pedi
gree will be most welcome, and he cal
rest assured that we shall hold nothing
back which we get, that is of Importance

ANNOUNCEMENT.

The work on the first volume of the Register
OF Morgan Horses goes steadily forward. 1t
will consist OF about 500 pages, and contain
about 1000 pedigrees, with much additional
matter, be well illustrated and handsomely
bound. All stations of merit tracing in di-
rect male line to Justin Morgan, toaled 1850
and before and having at least one sixty fourth
blood OF the original Morgan horse, will be
recorded free; for stations foaled since 1850
and mares with such Inheritance as above,
the usual tee of 81 is charged. The price OF
the book is not yet fixed, but will be made as
low as can be afforded, so that the work may
be widely distributed. Blanks for pedigrees
furnished on application. Address,

ROYAL GEORGE.

A private letter from Alex. Danack,
st. Thomas, Ontario, Canada, has been
sent to us, from which we extract:
IL enclose the breeding of Royal
George as nearly as | can get at it.
was just looking for paper containing
a letter in reference to his dam. There
was a letter from Barney Barnes of this
place, published in a New York paper,
which is all bosh. Barney Barnes is
trainer, skillful driver, but as to the
breeding of horses he don't know the al
phabet. The breeding give of Tippoo
is, believe, correct, although it differs
from the infallible, unbending authority
j. ii. Wallace-who traces him to Tip
poo Sab, thence to Messenger. This
breeding is given by the man who owned
Tippoo-given recently in old age-giv-
en- voluntarily that wrong might be set
right. If the dam of Royal George was
by son of American Eclipse, there are
in my mind one hundred chances to one
that not one drop of Messenger blood was
in his veins. Had they been husbanded
and doomed as the HambletOnians have,
they are, all in all, more valuable race
of horses. They are larger, they are
stronger, they are handsomer, they are
more prompt drivers, they used less boots
and weights, and the non-trotters will
bring as ''horses" to dealers larger price
and reader sale. They are par-excellence
the general purpose horse. Look at the
wealth and opportunities lavished to
force Electioneer to the front. Contrast
that with the banging around that poor
old Royal George received, and yet, after
all these years of abuse, look over the
2 80 list of 1887, and see how they live.
Gen. Stanton, a son of Hambletonian, is
achieving great success in this Province,
and it is because his lot is cast in the re-
gion where Royal George spent his de-
cinng years, where his sons grew up
and lived to enrich the stock of the dis
trict, and where the land is filled with
mares more or less strong in Royal
George blood.

Tippoo, by Fleetwood, by Fireaway, a
