SENATOR MORGAN WRITES
@ OF THE ISTHNIIAN CANAL

to provide for the general welfare Of the
people and the government.
"In common with nel-ly the whole buiy
of the engineers of all countries, and
the great number of enlightened men
who have studied the subject advocated
the Nicaraguan route as the best llcaticn
for the canal.
THAT Congress should give conditional
preference to the Panama route is a dis
appointment to me, but 1t does not eff
feet the purpose that is now settled to
open a canal
MY opinion that the Panama route is
an unsafe experiment is not changed; nor
Is the universal opinion that the Mica
ragua route is entirely safe and feasible
at a reasonable cost, in the least cha nged.
The only point in controversy was, which
of the two locations Is the most advanta-
geous in financial sense. Congress, be-
ing satisfied that the anama route is
practicable and feasible, decided the
financial question in favor of the Panama
route or a separate vote. But the ques-
ton of title to the Panama route was left
open for investigation by the president
and he is examining the matter, as 1 hope
and believe, carefully and diligently.
"If perfect title is not obtained to the
Panama route the act of Congress re-
quires that the canal shall be located
and constructed on the Nicaragua route.
1t is not settled therefore that those who
advocate the Nicaragua route are to be
finally disappointed and / do not be-
live that 1t will be so settled.
'If 1t should be settled finally against
the Nicaragua route l am by no means
so rash OF so confident of my own judg
ment as to set 1t up against the iudg-
ment of the President and of a two
thirds ajority of the Senate. / would
certainly yield my convictions to such
authority. In either event the canal will
be assured and that has been all the time
the leading object in what l have tried
to accomplish. My choice of location is
an opinion that may be in error, but
the necessity of the people for a canal
between the oceans Is a fact, about
which there can be no error or dispute.
/ rejoice that this fact is established by
law and that the money Is voted to work
it out.
Il wish to assure your Association that
they, and everybody. can row shape their
future work for public and private pros
perity with entire confidence in the fact
that an Isthmian Canal owned and con-
trolledsby the United States is provided
for by the act of Congress and cannot
fail of early completion.
THE share l have had in this work
has not been a matter of personal ambi-
ton and all that ! have been able to dc
in working for the result now accom-
plished is amply compensated by the fact
that this act of Congress opens to the
South field in which the bloom of pros
perity will brighten above the ashes OF
the past.
with high regards,
John T. Morgan
The Alabama Commercial and Indus
trial Association has manifested deep
interest in the canal project since the
Association was organized

Hon. w. n. Sanford Met Hon. w.
L. Martin.

Hon. w. II. Sanford of Troy and Hon
w. L. Martin of Montgomery met in d
joint debate Saturday at Sand Tuck, Ell
more County. Mr. Sanford spoke for
the candidacy of Governor Jelks while
Mr.. Martin defended the record of for
mer Governor Johnston.
The speaking had been widely adver-
tised and an audience of nearly 500 voters
greeted the speakers. Mr.. Sanford
opened in q speech of forty minutes and
Mr.. Martin occupied an hour in replying
The debate was closed in a fifteen min
utes address by Mr. Sanford
The address Of the Pike County orator
was highly complimented. He was re-
garded as one of the best speakers in the
CONSTITUTIONAL Convention and he is said
to have surpassed himself in his Gilmore
County speech.
Mr.. Martin delivered an interesting
speech, but he is said to have appeared
at a disadvantage, as the sentiment of
the audience is reported to have been
overwhelmingly in favor of Governor
JelkS.

MEETS AT HIGHLAND PARK.
Sunday School Convention Will Not
Go to Showdown.

The convention of the Montgomery
County Sunday Schools will be held in
the Highland Park Chapel August 1924,
instead of at Showdown.
The committee to choose a place for the
holding of the convention met yesterday
afternoon at o'clock in Judge j. B. Full
ler's office and decided to change the
place of holding the convention from
Showdown to Highland Park.
The change was made necessary be-
cause of the better facilities possessed by
Montgomery and Highland Park for err
tertaining the delegates to the conven-
ton. There are about forty Sunday
schools in the county and each Sunday
school is entitled to three delegates and
consequently there will be about 40 dele
gates present.
Judge Fuller said a large number of
the delegates would he entertained by
Montson cry families.

bats les chiffres du movement

ce.
CONNIE nous pavons d6ja dit, en-
1901, on relieve 857.274 naissan-
ces, contre 827,397 settlement en-
1900. Done, accroissementde 10000

pitoyable a lexces.
Alors, 81 Pon compare 1901 non

cade l89l-l900 laccrolssement du
nombre des naissances est encore,
pour 1901, de 4,274 sur la moyen-
ne annuelle. C'est un success, un
petit success, mails un success!
Et M. Leroy-Beaulieu fait re-
marquer que la France doit q la
Bretagne une bonne part de ce suc-
ces:
''La Finist6re Went tout a fait en-
tete de tous les departments fran
Gals pour Texc6dent des naissan-
ces sur les deces; Get excellent y
est de 1856 ames en- 1901 pour une
population totale de 773, OLA ames. :.
''Livrons- nous maintenant a un
calcul tres simple; supposons que
toute la France ait les moeurs de ce
d6partement arri6r6, le Finistere.
Notre population actuelle etant de
81, ,96l, ,945 habitants, un accroisse-
ment de l.l6 pour cent par an cor
respondrait a un excellent annuel
de 451 ,947 naissances. Get excellent
d6passerait sensiblement celui de
pAngleterre. Si Get exc6dent ana
logue a celui du Finist6re s'6tait
produit pour toute la France depuis
1871, la France compterait au-
]ourd'hu Ii ou Il millions d'habi-
tants de plus qu'elle men a: ellie
aurait de So a So millions d'habi-
tants, pressure autant que PAllema-
gne''
Et le Finistere nest pas, en- Bre-
tagne, une exception. Mais les Co.
tes- du-Nord ct le Morbihan fgu-
rent aussi parmi les dix d6parte-
ment francaits Oh l'exc6dent des
naissances sur les d6c6s est le plus
fort. M. Leroy-Beaulieu conclut
en- lhonneur de la Bretagne.
