OF defending the canal. It was In obedi-
ence to this sentiment that the hous
bill authorized the secretary Of war u
construct such provisions OF defense as
may be necessary for the safety and
protection Of said canals and harbors.'
The treaty Of Constantinople. upon
which the Hay-Pauncefote treaty was
based, disavowed interference with such
steps as the sultan and khedive might
find it necessary to take by their own
forces for the defense of Egypt and the
maintenance of public order 1t was
commended in the senate that the situa-
ton of the United States between the
Atlantic and Pacific oceans required a
stipulation similar to that Incorporated
in the Constantinople treaty, and an
amendment in like language is pending
in the committee on foreign relations.
Amendments will doubtless be Of
fered, and the advocates of a neutral
canal will be heard, but friends of the
bill are believed to be in majority
strong enough to keep it intact. The
features of the Nicaragua canal bill are
as follows:
Section / authorizes the president tc
acquire from Costa Rica and Nicarag qua
control Of the territory thru which the
canal will pass from Greytown on the
east to Breto on the west, and appropri-
ates such sum as may be necessary 10
secure such control. no specific amount
being mentioned.
Section ? empowers the secretary OF
war, when such control has been Sc
cured, to excavate and construct ca
nal of sufficient capacity and depth to
accommodate vessels of the largest ton
mage and greatest depth. with safe and
conlmodious harbors at the termini and
such provisions for defense as may be
necessary for the safety and protection
Of said canal and harbors.
Section 5 provides for the necessary
surveys.
Section 4 directs the use Of the San
EJuan river and Lake Nicaragua wher-
ever practicable.

WILL BOOM WESTERN COMMERCE.

IftcnTys GieWS.
The recent election has stamped out
of the minds of the people all fear that
any sort of governmental policy in any
way ininical to the finances or business
or prosperity of the country may be
adopted. A very8 great factorsin our flu
ture development, which our people are
soon to discover. will appear in the
building up Of the ports of trade on the
Pacific Coast, which will be so extern,
slYe and rapid in progress that the AT.
3lantic ports will before long begin to
feel the competition of the western
coast of our country. Our grasp Of the
Philippine Islands, and the foothold in
trade and greater share of confidence in
our disirterestedness as regards terri
torial encroachment which is fast gain
ing in the Chinese Empire will finally
Gonsumate the preparations for as great
business and prosperity for the Pacific
coast states as have heretofore been en-
Joyed by those of the Atlantic coast
Soon part OF the trade and commerce
of the eastern states will be brought In
to competition with that of the great
Pacific coast. insomuch thatit will APP
pear that indeed westward the star of
empire takes it way. 1t is the fore
sight Of such change in the Pacific
states that has produced such a pro-
nounced electoral result this November
Our country is now passing thru a
rapid growth of progress and power
and prestige which Will soon place her
in the leadership OF the nations, with
every means necessary for extending
civilization, enlightenment, commerce
and better government over the world.

A BULLFINCH REVIVAL.
The Little Red-Breasted Songsters
Are Enjoying Great Popularity
In New York.

In the usual course of change in fash
ions, which affect the choice of pets as
much as they affect taste of dress, liter
ature and drama, that old favorite the
piping buRfnch is coming into high ia
for in New York just now. The bull
finch is 'the parrot of the temperate
zone" not because he ever learns to
talk, like his tropical prototype, but be-
cause, having no wood notes wild" Of
his own, he can learn TO whistle human
music and often distinguishes himself
as a soloist.
A leading New York bird seller who
is now doing fourishing business in
bullfnches last week gave this account
Of the bullfnch revival: They used to
be favorite pets ON the other side; l
don't know that they were ever before
very popular here. OF course, the bull
finch is not an American bird, but a ma
tive OF Europe. Some of those import
come from England, but more from Ger
many. As you know, a fashion like that
is generally set going by SOME notable
or another. In this case the German
kaiser is responsible. Bullhnches are
a hobby with him; he has six of them
that whistle Die Wacht am Rhein' in
chorus, and now some of my men from
over there tell me he has new bird
learning TO whistle song which has
lately become popular in Germany
Kruger Is a Bully Boy"
This startling indication of the
kaiser's international tendencies, the
dealer said, has not yet got into print
on this side of the Atlantic. But" he
added, "we in the trade are far ahead of
the papers on all that kind of news"
The consignments of birds are
brought over from Germany under the
care of a regular professional "vogel-
handler" The great field for gathering
bullhnches is said to be the duchy of
Hesse. There the birds are taken, un-
hedged, from the nests and patiently
taughtto whistle their little repertories
while they are still young. The old
story that needles are thrust into their
eyes to make them sing better is ridi-
culed by the dealers, who say that moth
ing but petting will make bullfinch
a good performer. You can't do any
thing with them by punishment. Even
a cross word will upset bullfinch and
make him sulky. As for putting out
their eyes. TO say nothing Of the cruelty
Of it, il would ruin birds appearance
and destroy his market value."-N. Y.

The killing of Goebel is deplored
as much by Republicans as it is
bv Democrats and it is unjust to
charge tho crime upon any but an
individual, whose politics are as
little. known as his personal identi-
ty. The killing Of human being
in Kentucky is scarcely regarded
As a serious offence in that state
and is an everyday occurrence.
Goebel himself had t'got" his man
and was deemed none the worse
for it, in. his own state, at least.
No, the offence for which the Re-
publicans in Kentucky are being
denounced and execrated by Demo-
Gratis does not lie in the mere death
Of Goebel, but in the fact that they
persist in holding Offices to which
they were elected by a decisive
vote of the people after the Goebel-
ties had decided to have these
Offices for themselves in spite. OF
the will of the people.

The Mississippi Valley Democrat
and Journal of Agriculture, which
for the past few years has been
the leading organ of the Missouri
Democracy, seems to have lately
succumbed to the pernicious in
fluence of the ''Money Devil" and,
apparently, is changing its editor
ial policy SO as to.be n little easier
in its assaults upon that reprobat-
cd character. The capital stock of
this organ is owned by Democratic
leaders all over the State, including
State officials, congressman, and,
possibly, Bryan himself may hold
a few shares in the concern. 1t is
natural to suppose that the stock
holders have some control over the
political policy of the paper, and
thus the question arises, have the
leading Democrats of Missouri,
who are so active in shaping the
course of tho national policy of the
party, really been seduced from
paths of political virtue by the
clink of gold!
