ING stations are liable 20 naure largely ut
any time in the diplomatic correspond
ence passing between the United states
and foreign countries. In word. our
New York contemporary has allowed i's
locality to blind It toe the real merits OF
the proposed Nicaragua canal. Let US
say here that Chicago Is too Sarsc-
minded to object to extending the aid
OF the Federal Government to that
scheme.
Tn, Journal OF Commerce says that the
fact that the canal. II required at ALL
IL required for the commerce OF foreign
nations as well as our own IS n su'iicient
reason why It's construction should be
LETT 60 private capital. Now isn't tnat
an argument Of force? We need The canal
more than any other country needs H.
but If other nations also need II. then
we must leave Il TO them. The nation
most interested must hive no hand IN
preparing for international use this great
highway OF commerce" We need hot
argue that point.
Our New York contemporary THINKS
that the Suez canal was demanded by the
commercial nations OF the world. but
warns the people Of this country that the
fate Of the Panama canal may be the
fate OF the Nicaragua canal. This IS mere
bugbcar-thls Panama-canai scheme
and viii serve rather to nerve Uncle sam
for the grand undertaking which he has
in mind than to frghtep him from the
field Of adventure.
But it IS said that the commercial de-
mand for The Nicaragua canal has been
ovorestimated. This Is begging the ques-
ton again The friends of the scheme
do not by any means admit that such Is
the fact. The proposition could never
have commanded the strength which 1t
has shown in committee and elsewhere If
It had lacked the merits which its friends
know it 10 possess.
We fear that the bin under considera-
ton win have to go over until the mex,
session. II seems probable that Congress
will DO nothing at its present session ex-
cept pass the tariff bin and the appro-
prlation bills. "Pity its. tits true that
that body should thus waste time and
neglect the business OF the whole world.
But let as not lose hope in the ultimate
success of the international Nicaragua
canal scheme.

Don Cameron refused to 10 with the

when II says
Senator Cameron makes remarkably
clear and able presentation or MS posi-
ton. From the standpoint which ne oc-
cuples. nothing more forceful In argument
or impressive in rhetoric has ever been
spoken. The letter is at once protest
and appeal-a protest against the further
maintenance of the single gold standard
and the havoc IL has wrought-an appeal
to the grand old party to concentrate It's
energies upon the undoing OF "A great

These be notable indications. Clarkson

The Work of Underwood, Bayne, ct ais.

We desire. for ourselves, to ayow now,
frankly. that We regard it as matter OF
vital Importance u the State OF Virginia
that she should have a constitutional pro-
vision restricting the right 10 vote. We
believe that a provision similar TO that
OF the new Mississippi Constitution is de-
sirable here. We are not In favor of call
ing a special session for the purpose OF
Fastening q constitutional convention, or
for any other reason which may not APP
pear to be overwhelming: but we think
the campaign OF education towards a
constitutional convention, and towards
the adoption OF an improved Constitution,
should so on TO the end that when a
convention shall be called our people
may be prepared 10 send 10 1t the men
most capable of dealing with the large
questions that will be presented. and OF
