If correctly reported in The course OF an

Walker has absolutely misinterpreted the

no token anywhere of a change in the
overwhelming sentiment that this canal.

Recent events. such as the acquisition of
Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the Philippines,
have accumulated this necessity. Whereas
heretofore trade considerations chiefly re-
quired the waterway as an adjunct to the
national facilities now political conditions
combine to render it essential factor in
the governments equipment. The very
circumstances which have produced more
kindly feeling toward England have
clinched the necessity of this nations ex
elusive ownership. The trip of the Oregon,
for an instance showed how needful it
is that the United States, alone and I'M
hampered by foreign partnerships should
possess a waterway from ocean to ocean
to permit the speedy mobilization of its
fleets in times of emergency.
Admiral Walker. if he really spoke as
reported, is doubtless seeking to express
the new sentiment which can see in Eng
land other than enmity and intrigue against
the United States But he seriously mis-
takes the popular feeling when he sug

Mr.. PettigreW in the Senate yesterday, in
speaking of Mr.. Lodges resolution calling
on the President for information about the
Philippine question. said il should read. eff
not Incompatible with the interests of a
candidate for reelection. Should not Mr..
Pettigrews own resolution state that its
object is TO give encouragement TO Aguin-
aldo. and to aid if possible in the campaign
to be waged against the Presidents re-

it can serve no other purpose. Mr.. Petit

forward all sorts and conditions of rumors.
assertions. innuendoes, and what not, all
designed to fix bad faith on the character
Of his countrymen, and TO exaIt the Fill
pinus 10 the skies.
Why u renewal of all this stuff at this
time if not to serve partisan end? Mr..
Pettigrew is pOpuiist. and an advocate of
Mr.. Bryan for President. He is shrewd
politician, and sees, as others who hold
with him do. that the prospects are not
bright for the coalition of which he is a
member. Silver an issue has lost in both
Of the Dakotas since 1896. The republicans
are as much opposed to trusts as are the
pOpuliSts and the democrats. Expansion is
accomplished fact. and must as a fact
be faced But there must be an issue of
some sort, and Mr.. Pettigrew seems to
think that if he can show perfidy on the
Presidents part, or on General Otis part,
the part of any American official of
high grade. in dealing with the FiIipinos. an
important contribution will be made to the
Bryan campaign.
Undoubtedly, if the President has acted
in way which shows him 10 be unworthy
Of his great office. and the fact can be

But does not the fact that such an effort
seems to be the last resort of his oppo-
uents show how all but desperate their sit
uation is" If Mr. Pettigrew has no other
hope Of defeating the President for re-eIcc-
ton but that based upon an expectation
of being able to prove by the official files
that The President has acted the part of
Il tyrant and usurper IN the Philippines is
his present game in the Senate worth the

he cannot elect Mr. Bryan President of
