urned the scales against taking 1t up.
When the senate by a vote of AZ TO II
adopted Senator Foraker's amendment
to the army bill, declaring that no
property franchises or concessions
Of any kind should be granted in Cuba
during United States occupation Of the
island, it served notice upon a horde
of schemers that they would get no
help from this government in their ef.
forts to get something for nothing in
Cuba.
The anti Nicaragua canal lobby won
its fight after all. The canal legisla-
tion that was finally agreed to in con
ference, will leave the matter at the be-
ginning of the nex session of congress
just about where II was at the begin
ming of the session just ended. The
friends OF the canal fought hard for
legislation that would at least author

ing willingness to accept II small APP.
preparation as a start, but the power
aud wealth of the lobby was too much
for them. The legislation adopted
merely authorizes the president to ap.
point a commission of engineers, to be
composed of officials or civilians, in his
discretion, to investigate the Nicar.
aqua and Panama canal routes and as
certain upon what terms the govern.
mcnt can obtain control OF either Of
them, and request the president to rec
ommeud legislation, based on the re.
port Of the commission, to the next
congress. This legislation was OBJ
tanned by a united lobby maintained by
the Panama canal comp,n and the
New York syndicate that claims Ia
have n concession for the Nicaragua
canal. To prevent legislation was NUT
ually beneficial 10 these parties, but
from now on they will be working
against each other, as both are after

Nothing connected with the closing
hours Of congress gave pleasure to a
greater number of persons than the
confirmation of the new naval promo

Of the session., which made Schley q

Sampson, instead of two numbers be-
hind him, as the first promotion sent
in, which the senate hung up, would
have made him. Public opinion some
times gets on the wrong side, but in
this case it was right from the first,

will hereafter be placed on the
product Of that factory. This
news is indeed welcome to all who
have watched the fight of the
Tobacco Workers against thetrust,
and If union men will stand by
their colors as they should, and
buy only union label tobacco, the
big tobacco trust will be brought
to its knees in short order. This
struggle is one of the greatest Of
modern times, and has been hotly
contested from the very start.
The Tobacco Workers label has
been steadily forcing its way
to recognition, until now nearly
all the factories outside the trust
have adopted it to aid them in the
struggle for existence against the
octopus which seeks to drive all
competitors from the field. To
purchase any brand of tobacco
other than those bearing a union
label is merely driving a nail in
