THE NICARAGTA C1NAL.

1t is stated that the subcommittee of
the house committee on commerce re-
CARDS the estimate of the cost of con-
structing the Nicaragua canal submitted
by the board of engineers, and which
was transmitted to congress last week,
as too high. The report of this board,
which is very comprehensive aud deals
practically with the project, places the
cost at over $133, 100000. which is S6a,
600, 900 in excess of the estimates of the
company which now holds charter
from Nicaragua to build the waterway
The board declares that the official esti-
mate by the company Is insufficient for
the work and the estimate made by the
board Is provisional. "It should be UNI
derstood," says the report, ''thap the
existing data are inadequate as IL basis
for estimating the cost of many of The
structures; some portions uf tie work
may cost more, others less. but in the
Judgment of the board the entire project
can be executed for about the total
amount of its estimate" The fact up
pears to be that so many and great are
Tie nutuIal ulIHculllpS tO III overcome
that it is next to impossible to make
anything like an accurate estimate of
the cost but there Is reason to believe
that the figures of the board OF en-
gineers are much nearer TO what it
would be than those of the canal com
pany.
1t appears to be the intention of the
house committee on commerce to report
Il bill similar to that of Senator Morgan
in the last congress, which provided for
a government guarantee OF canal bonds
to the amount of $100.000.6)O and the
practical control of the enterprise by
the government. 1t Is absolutely GER
tain that in no other way can the re-
quired capital be obtained In this
country and it is somewhat doubtful
whether 1t can be secured abroad, al
though the promoters of the project as
sert that there will be no difficulty in
getting all the European capital needed
IL congress refuses to give the aid asked
for. Ii would seem. however, that be
fore investing In canal bonds foreign
capitalists would desire some very def

Mite guarantees as 10 the future re.
lations of both the United states aud
| Nicaragua toward the canal wbcl,
might prove serious obstacle. In the
meanwhile the government of Nicaragua
might deem 1t expedlent to revoke the
charter. of which there has already been
some talk and take upon. itself the work
of constructing the waterway with the
aid of foreign capital. or make such
concessions to foreign capitalists as
would induce them to take hold of 1t.
Some such course has been under con.
sideration and in the event of the fail.
ure of the present congress to do any
thing for promoting the construction Of
the canal 1t is more than probable that
Nicaragua will take steps to revoke the
charter.
anteeing canal bonds can be passed in
this congress, at any rate at the present
session. Undoubtedly there is very
general feeling that this project
ought to be constructed with American
capital and be under exclusive Ameri.
can control. but this sentiment has not
served to enlist the capital aud is not
likely to. while there is very strong OBJ
lection to the plan of involving the
government financially i'm the enterprise,
however ample the safeguards against
any loss by the government may be.
With the problem of getting what is
due the government from the Pacific
railroads awaiting solution the public is
little disposed TO look with favor upon
any new scheme of governmental as
sistance to corporate enterprise.
The determination of the Nicaragua
canal question caunot. however, be put
off much longer. 1t will have to be
settled within the next year or two or
the American projectors will probably
lose all the rights they have secured. to-
gether with all that has been expended
on the enterprise. amounting to between

Boston Post: The new anthracite coal COM
bination offers an admirable opportunity for
testing the anti-monopoly act of 1890. Ger
tainly its language interpreted by the rules
OF common sense, seems to apply directly to
the situation created by the Morgan Wander
bilt combination coal mining and coal carry
ing companies. ;,-.
New York Journal: If the attorney general
were to direct that coal produced and trans
ported under an agreement illegal under the
Sherman act should be seized while in transit
the issue would be brought to the test at
once. There would be no delay until the sum-
mer season came to create apathy In the con-
test. The crisis would be as spontaneous as
when nations declare war. With trainoads

St. Paul Globe: 1t has come to the point,
as it always does come sooner or later, that
the people themselves must act. Their rep
resentatives are careless, self-seeking igno-
rant, or so absorbed in political scheming that
they have no time to devote to the real in
terests Of the great mass of our everyday
working population 1t is time to bring them
to their senses They will not, because they
dare not, disregard an uprising of the people
for smashing the great coal combine that has
the country at its mercy today more COM
pletely than ever before. Let unanimous
demand be made upon the authorities at
Washington, and they will refuse to act only
at their peril.
Springfield Republican: The first step taken
by the combination is to advance prices about
30 cents ton. On reduced output--say
40 900 900 tons a year-this would mean an
additional income to the combined properties
of $14 900, 900. But it is said to be the inten-
ton Of the ring to push prices In the end up
to about 81 ton over the average price OF
1895, which would mean an additional reve-
nue. to the members thereof Of some $40 .0OO,-
O0O which, Of course, the people and manu-
facturers will have to pay. At the same time
many collieries in the Pennsylvania coal re-
gion are being shut down In pursuance of the
order to reduce the output, and thousands OF
men will be thrown out of employment.

THE DENfH RATIO FIELD.

The democrats Of PENNSYLVANIA are
first in the presidential field with a
| favOritc son, Ex-Governor PattisOn hay-
ing received the unanimous endorsement
Of the state committee for nomina ton
by the national convention AT Chicago.
The resolution adopted by the com
mittee sets forth that sin character,
in ability. in official experience, in the
fearless discharge of public duties, Mr..
Pattison is well equipped for the high
office for which we recommend him."
with more that is highly complimentary
to the ex-governor. Thus one possible
democratic candidate for president has
been brought forward for the inspection
of the country, for there can be no
doubt that Mr.. Pattison will not reject
| the honor thus conferred upon him.
sylyania and on the score of ability and
sound democracy is unquestionably the
peer of any man so far talked of for
the democratic presidential nomination.
With the solid and earnest support of
the Pennsylvania delegation in the ma
tionai convention Mr.. Pattison ought to
have very good chance of securing the
nomination.
There is likely to be number of
"favorite sons" brought forward before
the meeting of the national convention.
Massachusetts, has one in Ex-Governor
Russell, Ohio in Ex-Governor Campbell,
Indiana in Ex-Governor Matthews, Iowa
In ny-E IL, Sn 2
son and Morrison, and there are other
states where the democrats doubtless
think they. have presidential material.
The presentation of perhaps half a score
of names to the national convention is,
therefore, by no means Improbable, the
effect of which will be to intensity in
terest in what promises to be one Of
the liveliest and most interesting politi-
cal conventions in recent years.
There appears to be still Il pretty gen
eral belief that Mr. Cleveland will be
nominated unless he prevents that ac-
ton. 1t IS thought that If he remains
silent, If he let's matters drift along, if
he awaits the meeting of. the conven-
ton, he is sure to be named. 1t is said
that Mr.. Cleveland manifested great
interest in General Harrison's letter of
withdrawal, speaking of it as evidently
sincere, but there is no intimaton that
carries with 1T any authority that he
is likely to emulate the example of his
predecessor.
The democratic presidential field has
not yet assumed particularly interest
ing aspect, but it cannot be long before
it will present features worthy of atten-
ton. Meanwhile, the Pennsylvania |
candidate. who is for sound money and |
tariff reform, can be thoroughly dis. |
cussed by the democrats of other states. |

IOWA FfHST-U UTAH NEXT

According to an old French adage, II
is the first step that takes effort. Fol
this reason the Importance of the action
of the Iowa legislature i'm endorsing the
Transnississippi exposition project is
not to be underestimated. Iowa has
taken the lead in officially committing
itself to the plan. The resolutions
the legislature leave no room for mis-
taking the attitude of the state Not
only Is the Transmississippi exposition
TO be held at Omaha in 1898 Heartily
approved" but the people of Iowa are
expressly urged to cooperate with the
people of the other states and terri
tories of the transmssissippi region AMI
utilize the opportunity to make fitting
display Of their resources. All the
Iowa representatives and senators IL,
congress have practically announced
themselves to be in full accord with tie
proposed exposition, but if anything
more were needed to impress upon
them its Importance to the entire west
the request of the Iowa Legislature, that
they promote as far as possible the bill
giving congressional recognition to the
enterprise should complete the, work of
winning their support. 2 - 4HilI !
The endorsements of the Transmfssis-
sippi exposition by the state Of Iowa
must be followed up with similar action
by the other states that are equally
interested in its successful consumma-
tion. 1t so happens that Utah is the
only other western state where the
legislature is in session this winter
Iowa first---Utah reXt! The second
step in the program of the exposition
management must be TO secure from the
legislature of Utah the adoption of reso-
lntions favoring the exposition in terms
equally emphatic with those OF Iowa.
Utah was fully represented in the
congress last TALL.
which gave the undertaking it's first
great impetus, and it's delegation
pledged the hearty cooperation of their
state. With the example of Iowa be-
fore it Utah should quickly claim the
honor of being the second state to take
formal action endorsing the exposition

other words, although the state go over

possible for the democrats to pull out
little prospect of divided electoral vote
from Michigan, and even If there were
it would lave small effect upon the
