The Isthminn Canal,

There appears to be n well-deflned de-
mand made upon Congress by the press
OF the country for the passage Of n
measure providing for the construction
OF n ship canal across the !sthmus OF
Panama, and the general concensus Of
opinion ia that II should be built with
out any reference to the neutrality pro-
position embodied In the Hay-Pnunce-
fote treaty.
Senator Elkns. In yesterdays 1ntellI-
gcnccr. expressed the matter tritely
when he said the bill should be passed
treaty or no treaty. The senator adds:
my personal opinion Is that tho treaty
cannot be passed In the form in which
1t was sent to the senate. do not be-
llcvc that 1t IS the sense OF the Amerl-
can people that we shall surrender our
control OF the canal. II we build the
canal with our money, We must control
1t In amy and every why that we desire,
The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1900-11-28

If we want fortifications. We must be
allowed to build them without asking
the consent OF Great Britain or consult
ing with that country in any degree. 1t
is possible that in the future we shall
want TO make the canal wholly neutral.
but that Is for future Congresses to de-
eide. For he,present the canal must be
American in eve4y sense of the word.
repeat, therefore. that would like to
see the canal bill speedily passed. and
neither the trenty nor the attitude of
any European government ought to be
an obstacle" 5iiob
The Washington Post commenting on
the above expressions Of West Virgin
las senior senator. says that therein
Mr.. Elkins speaks for the American
people. He speaks for millions Of fight
Ing men who love their country. and
who would see only shame. humiliation
and inextinguishable anger In Its sub
lection. even the most shadowy, to En-
gland. He does not indulge In reverent
speculations as to what England will
prefer or object to or yield or demand.
The question OF the Nicaragua Canal Is
between the United States on the one
hand and Costa Rica and Nicaragua on
the other. England's attempt to in
trude upon II is demonstration OF I'M
mitigated impudence which Congress
should rebuke with prompt and bitter
emphasis. Let the affectionate fuss In
diplomatic circles proceed, by all means.
In this regard we feel much as did that
fine old British admiral who, having
been reminded Of Captain A. T. Mahan's
literary gifts. said: oh, yes; we have
fellows Ike that In England-great fell
lows, Of course-and we lock 'em up. In
nice rooms somewhere, don't We know,
and let 'em write, you see.' Certainly,
we must have the usual opera bouffc.
But for heavens sake. let Congress
speak and act for the American people,
for our national dignity and honor. and
for the free institutions which our fore
fathers sanctifed by their heroic mar
tyrdom.
This great nation was built upon that
sacrlfcIal blood, 1t was created through
triumphant defiance Of English arro-
gance and cruelty. 1t exists to-day as
protest against English greed and q
challenge Of England's ravening ag-
erosion. II we forget our sacred obli-
cations and traditions: II we resign our
altitude and mission In the Western
Hemisphere; II we open the way for
European invasion of America, we desc
crate the graves Of our fathers and fall
into a place Of sorrow and contempt"

THE INTELLIGENCER.
Hewitt's Warming.

Ex-Mayor Abram S. Hewitt, who is
something of soclologist, created u
mild sensation at the annual meeting
OF the Educational Alliance Of New
York. the other evening. in delivering
some caustic criticism of the rich men
of that city and Of the country at large
He prophesled that unless they changed
their attitude towards the masses OF
society the twentieth century would
bring forth q social cataclysm such as
the world had never seen. In uttering
these words Mr.. Hewitt was quite sin
cere, and spoke from wide knowledge
Of men and considerable experience in
aiding to establish that grand monu-
ment to the philanthropy of Peter
Cooper-Cooper Institute. Mr.. Hewitt
did not In the spirit Of the demagogue
attempt to incite class against class, or
to array what Mr.. Bryan was pleased
to call in the late campaign the COM
mon people" against the rich, he SIM
ply warned the wealthy that they were
not performing their whole duty to So
ciety, and that their greatest safety
lay in the education of the masses-to
destroy ignorance and cultivate inrelli-
gence.
In speaking OF the inception Of Cooper
Institute Mr.. Hewitt related the carly
struggles of his father-in-law, whom,
he said when an apprentice at the
munifcent sum of $50 year. invested
in tallow dip, and 1t was by the light
OF this dip that he read at nights and
obtained all the education he had. He
did not attend school six months in his
life. It was while he was getting his
education in this hard way that he
made up his mind II ever he controlled
the means to do 1t to establish 4 night
school for mechanics who, like himself.
were ambitious for learning. Unlike
many men who are stirred to such reso-
lutions by their hardshlps of their early
life. and who forget all about them
when the sunlight of prosperity breaks
over them. Mr.. Cooper never swerved
from his early purpose.
Referring to the fact that while Mr..
Cooper recognized the value of the So
cIal feature In educational work.
Mr.. Hewitt said Cooper Union
has of necessity been confined to
educational work. The social develop
ment Is Just as needful as the educa-
tional. And 1t Is especially so here In
New York. where the tenement-house
life which such n large portion OF the
population lives cannot be regarded
with any degree OF satisfaction. The
people who live In the tenements In New
York are better off. than the lower
classes In the Middle Ages. but there is
room for great improvement, and we
ought to be moved to bring about this
Improvement for selfish reasons. II for
no others. 1t will pay us to do It."
After what might be done in helping
the poor and educating the Ignorant
Mr.. Hewitt aiIirms that "the rich are
blind. There is not one among them
who is giving what he would give II his
conscience were properly aroused.
They do not seem to realize that this is
n government by the majority. Ours Is
the only country In which there Is uni
veTsal suffrage To be exercised right
fully and rlghteously that suffrage
must needs DO educated. The rich In
contributing to Its education are but
building for their own protection. II

Railway Work in the Philippines.
From Cassier,s Macazine


The fact that the entire railway. system
of the Philippine Islands at present con-
sists of 4 single line of antquated pat
tern, having a single line of less than 125
miles. gives some idea of the neglect of
this economic form of travel and trans
portation under the long Spanish regime.
The road intersects the rich peninsula
northwest Of Manila and connects that
city with Dagupan, a town on the east
coast of the Island of Luzon, which will
eventually become an important one To
be exact the length of the line is 122
miles. The gauge is three feet six inches,
and the ties are of the finest hardwood,
obtained from the forests along the line.
On the entire length there are sixty
iron bridges. AS compared with the fair
ly substantial character of the roadbed,
the rolling stock is very light. In speed
and capacity the locomotives are ins.g-
nifcant, being OF less than ten tons bur
den.
The usual speed varied from fifteen to
twenty miles an hour, and when the
American troops took possession their
railroad:ng astonished the natives, the
speed being frequently doubled. Com
partment coaches are used, and these are
divided into three classes or apartments,
each apartment seating eight passengers.
The few first-class coaches are provided
with comfortable cane chairs, while the
secOnd-class apartments have rough
wooden benches, and the third class are
bare and are usually crowded withs ma
tives carrying baskets and bundles Of all
descriptions. An ordinary train is made
up of eight or ten carriages, most of them
third class, and the fare ranges from 2
to 8 cents, Mexican, per mile. The bulk
Of the freight now carried is made up of
rice sugar, hemp and building material.
and the rates on all classes of traffic are
considerable.
