to what constituted the
paramount issue of the
recent campaign, there can hardly be
denial OF the fact that from n broad
view of the question, looking we'll into
the next session of congress will be
the fate of the Nicaragua canal.
"'rhe canal proposton"-to use the
forccful words of the Washington
Star-'"is now a very old one. 1t has
been before many congresses. 1t has
been studied in the light of a changing
panorama of world events of over half
cal responsibility in this hemisphere
has .acCcntuated the necessity for the
waterway. The recent events where
by the United States vastly enlarged
the sphere OF its activity have made
the canal Il necessity more insistent
than ever before. All doubts as to
the utility of the canal, all questions
construction, all fears for its success
have been swept away by the wonder
ful development of the political and
commercial Importance of the states
bordering on the Pacific ocean, both
American and Asiatic Every consid-
Grafton Of se!f-defense and self-respect
demands that this work be completed
without further delay. 1t represents
the most serious need of the country
today, and until it is passed, in sat
isfactory terms, congress vii! remain
derelict in Il duty, clearly demon
strated by the plain logic of events
There have been largely credited re-
ports of powerful lobby influences at
work to block practical canal legisla-
tion. The late G. +. Huntington was
reputed To be at the head of a trans
continental railway opposition. These
or other influences have succeeded for
| many years in defeating the clearly
defined majority opinion of the coun-
| try. The time for that kind of dilly
dallying has gone by. There will be
no pardon for the man in public life
who shall hereafter try to defeat
this great national need.

Men were beaten in the station house.
Men and women were taken from their
