An article in the London Times last
week disparaged the Nicaragua canal
project. and pointed out that British
trade would stil have an imm snse adj
vantage in the use OF the Suez canal
for commerce with the Far East The
voyage TO Calcutta, according to the
Times, viii be 5000 miles farther by the
Nicaragua route than by way Of Suez.
Hongkong Is 1000 miles nearer by Suez
than by the Nicaragua canal, Yoko-
hama 500 miles nearer, and Melbourne
lG00. In addition, the dues at Suez, the
Times says are far less than viii be
charged for the use OF the Nicaragua
canal route. British trade with South
America. II Is stated, Is carried on
mainly in sailing vessels which, in the
opinion of the Times, cannot use the Nj
caragua canal and a transfer TO steam
vessels Is unlikely. 1T Is rather sad
concludes the Times. ito think that
such a striking correction OF nature
may fail to pay its way, but these OBJ
jections are serious and have not yet
received all the attention they merit.

HAY-PAUNoEFoTE TREATY
Boston Transcript.

Although the Senate has discussed the
Nicaragua canal project with closed
doors In considering the Hay Paunce-
fote treaty In executive session, enough
Is known of its proceedings to indicate
very clearly the line of cleavage In the
debate. The lingo sentiment that II Is
none OF Great Brltain's business how
we build the canal or where We build
It, and that the world Is ours, tenanted
solely at our will by other nations, Is
voiced by Senator Teller He has Of
fered an amendment squarely providing
for the fertilization Of the canal under
our authority and thereby making II
a great military work. Mr.. Teller's
contention that Great Britain has Moth
ing TO say, and ought 70 have nothing
TO say in the matter. overlooks, possl-
bly, purposely the logical consideration
that our agreement with her for the
naturalization Of the canal presupposes
her 10 be a party In interest.

There are many who believe that the
isthmian water way is a question that
should be handled In large way after
thorough study and upon definite lines.
Because the way now appears TO be
cleared for favorable concessions In Nj
caragua and Costa Rica Is no reason for
precipitate action. Better the loss OF a
years time than a hastily considered
makeshift which the nation viii have
occasion 10 regret in the future. Con-
gress can take it's time. The isthmus
won't run away. II Is there to stay.

The creation OF Notifications would
be expensive and they could not be an
adequate defense Of themselves. Their
presence would be constant challenge
TO an attack on the canal in the event
Of war. II would be the most vulnerable
point for 4 European power to hope TO
seize. Under the treaty, even as amend
ed, the presumption would be that the
neutrality OF the canal would be re-
spected. All considerations OF ethical
policies aside the fertilization Of the
water way would be a heavy expense
OF doubtful value The Davis alteration
recognizes this fact and at the same
time lis concession 10 those who
feared the Pacific coast would be too
much exposed under the original
treaty.

The plan is to create q special system

The supposItIon Is that these new
