ANOTHER CANAL ROUTE

Washington. Nov. 20.-The check In
the negotiations with Colombia. rela-
tive TO the Panama canal, has given
encouragement to the friends OF the Nj
caragua project, and the first evidence
OF renewed activity on their part was
the appearance at the State, Depart
ment of Senior Corea. Nicaraguan MIN
lister to Washington. Secretary Hay
has several times called the attention
OF the Colombian Government to the
fact that under section 4 OF the Spoon
er act is he is unable to obtain control
Of the necessary territory in Colombia
by treaty. then he Is required to obtain
such territory from Costa Rica and
Nicaragua.
II is now SAID TO De probable that to
emphasize his repeated declaration
that the action of Congress in the pas
sage of the Spooner amendment did not
finally commit the United States to the
acceptance OF the Panama route, Secre-
tary Hay may proceed to draw up a
treaty with Nicaragua and Costa Rica
and submit IL to the Senate along with
such treaty with Colombia as he may
be able to conclude, In this way the
Senate itself might decide whether or
not the Colombian treaty is satisfaG-
tory and II It should decide in the ne
gative then II will have at hand tho
Nicaraguan-Costa Rican treaties SO
that there will be no excuse for delay
In the canal project.
AS for the Colombian negotiations IL
can be stated that the United States
has now gone to the practical end or
the concessions It is willing to make,
The Colombian Minister here has been
notified of the decision reached and Ia
expected to make further reply either
accepting or rejecting our last propo-
sition. One OF the principal objec-
lions by Colombia Ia the difference
over the tenure Of the United States IN
the canal strip.

delegates, returned recently from a

court and Mr.. Hackett will present re-
ports at the April meeting OF the
council, and being directly responsible
10 the council, hesitate to express
their opinions until these official re-
ports are made. Both admitted, how
ever that they were much interested
in the proposition and that they saw
some very fine roads. Mr.. dHeme.
court said that the method is certain
ly a successful one as far as the max
ing of good roads is concerned. He
was not prepared to say as to the econ
omy of the matter until he had done a
little figuring.
Judge Ecker made the trip on his
own responsibility, and had no scru.
pies in saying unqualifiedly that he
thought the experiment being tried so
generally in the neighboring cities and
counties is a great success. The cit
les visited we're Los Angeles, Ontario,
Chino, San Bernadino, Redlands, Riv-
erside, and Santa Ana.
In speaking OF the trip the judge
said: I'VE looked carefully over the
field and we're driven over the roads
which have been treated with oil. We
made comparison OF the roads which
have been treated with oil and those
which have not and It was decidedly
in favor of the former. Anyone who
has been over an oiled road will feel
very perceptible difference when he
gets on one unoiled. In these places
the dust and sand is very deep and
travelling would be disagreeable but
for the new treatment.

The Late William /. Wilson and the Trusts

lFrom the Baltimore SUM
Ia a political speech before the Republican
club in Boston the other day Hon Leslie NJ.
Shaw the secretary OF the treasury gave con-
siderable attention to the Sherman antitrust
law, which he extolled highly. Under it, he
said mo trust OF the original type has for a
moment presumed 10 live They went out OF
business, every last one OF them and they Went
nstanter, II cured the entire evil it then
existed" 1t would have added 10 the interest
OF Mr. Shaws speech il he had favored his
audience with list OF the important trusts that
went out of business in consequence OF the
Sherman law, and had explained TO them which
OF them ceasing to live had monoposed neees-
sarieS of life Ii what MIR, Shaw says is en-
hrely accurate then is this country like the man
out Of whom the uneeau spirit went and later
returned, taking with him "seven other spirits,
more wicked than himself. and they enter in and
dwell there, And the last state OF that man is
worse than the first OF all the trusts that
were IN existence at the time of the passage of
the Sherman law dozen years ago, the two most
obnoxious to the people were the Standard OIL
trust and the Sugar trust and believe that
both these concerns are still in business at their
respective stands. Even f the sherman act
compelled the trusts 10 change the form OF their
organization, il brought no relief to the people,
Since the enactment Of that law. trusts and com
Dimes have grown up and Hourished and II the
law is Of any value in accomplishing the purpose
for which II was enacted, theu the administration
is greatly at fault in not applying it. In numer-
cases the Federal courts have decided that
the law could not be consttutonally applied, and
two years after Il was passed the republican
National convention recognized its insutfciency
and pledged the party TO strengthen il and make
il more effective. That pledge, like the subse-
quent pledge TO further strengthen the gold
standard has never been kept aud the country
is today face to face with various giant corpora
tons which are monopolzing the home market
and the people seem 70 have no remedy against
them Ii, as Mr., Shaw hints the sherman act
compelled the trusts 20 change their form OF
method OF organization, it in no way impaired
their activity.
MIR Shaw critieises the late William L. Wilson
Tor his opposition TO the Sherman act But the
event has shown that Mr.. Wilson was acting with
characteristic wisdom, for the law for all practi-
cal purposes has been OF no value or effect In
"a series OF articles which Mr., Wilson then the
democratic leader OF the house Of representa-
tiyes, wrote Tor The Sun in 1880, and from which
Mr. Shaw quotes Mr. Wilson gave an account Of
the rise Of the trust It's history and development

as TO DEMOCRATIC PROSPECTS.

Reports from Washington indicate that
the democratic congressional committee is
sim badly hampored by a lack of funds and
Of speakers. The committee Is being be-
sieged with requests for speechmakers, but
to only few OF these can favorable re-
plies be given. Efforts to induce democratic
senators and representatives to campaign in
districts other than their own are being
constantly made, but most of them are I'M,
successful The committee can not in many
cases offer TO pay the expenses Of the
speakers, and but few of those appealed to
can AFFORD to draw on their personal funds
for such a purpose, AS result there are
but few democratic speakers in the field,
while, on the other hand the republicans
have all the spellbinders they want and
are constantly sending out more
Chairman Griggs and his assistants are
not disheartened, however for they realize
that prospects for democratic success are
bright, even though the resources OF the
democratic committee are by no means
equal to those Of the republican organiza.
ton.
The public seems to have become fully
aroused to the fact that the republican party
is responsible for the evils which have re.
suited from the operations OF the trusts. and
there seems good reason to believe that the
voters Of the country will act accordingly
when the time comes. The republican lead.
ers, like Grosvenor of Ohio, are pointing out
that continuance OF the strike Will mean
the ruin OF the now dominant party and the
democrats think the result would be the
same even IL the strike should be settled
tomorrow.
On the whole, Chairman Griggs Is willing
to take Senator Hannas advice and stand
pat He is OF the opinion that the demo.
Gratis will be successful next month, II the
proper amount Of interest is shown and the
proper amount Of effort put forth
