THE PAN.AMERIcAN CONGRESS.

The Pan-Amerloan Congress has adj
journed and although its deliberations
have been followed with little attention
IN this country, It rs believed that the
work done viii be Of great Importance
to all the countries Of this hemisphere
The principal issue was that Of nrbi.
tratlon on that question the congress
was threatened with disruption, owing
to the pending disputes between Chlli,
Peru and Argentina over certain
boundaries, but finally the represen-
tatlyos agreed that the South Amen'
can republics should sign The Hague
convention. This will enable them TO
invoke the aid Of The Hague tribunal
IN any dispute that may arise with
one OF the European powers, and az
ford an opportunity Of calm discussion
before the outbreak Of a war.
Besides this II was agreed to re-
quest the president OF the Mexican re-
public to prepare system Of arbitra-
ton which may meet the approval Of
an The South American countries, ana
to Ivy y before a future Pan-Ameri-
can congress,
This Is an advance Of the cause Of
peace. IL proves that the labors OF
deli safes at The Hague are not lost
although the progress may as yet be
slow ana hampered by many obsta-
olcs, Mllltarism may IN later years
have gained some victories, but the
peace sentiments has had as important
trlumphs, and there can be no doubt
as to the final outcome
We believe the congress just closed
has done much toward consolidating
the interests OF the nations TO the south
Of us, and It has certainly been Il factor
IN formulating u policy, which If adj
hored 70, VIII assure peace on this sdv

DANGER OF INDUSTRIAL WAR.

Stuart Uttlcy, an English working
man who has studied the Industrial
conditions In this country thinks that
the most momentous danger to the
Republic Ia an industrial war that sure
ly will come, unless some remedy IL
found TO prevent It.
Writing In the Iron Age, he says
that the stronger the trusts grow, the
more powerless labor becomes, II can
yeceive no redress from Congress In
the same manner az the British work
ingmnn can from parliament, and II Is
not impossible that the time will come,
therefore when II will strike fercely,
wantonly and bllndly Nothing Inn

the growing strength Of the trusts
Sooner or later, he says, those we'll or

and uncontrolled multitude Of work
Crs, and then the real trial Of strength

Il Is we'll TO be reminded Of the
actual situation once In a while Prob
ably the deluge is yet far off, for the
country has as yet enormous resources
by the utilization Of which the enter

the possibilities Of disastrous indus

THE LATEST CANAL ROUTE.

If all that is claimed for the Mandn-
30 route-the latest suggestion for a
cut through the Panama lsthmus--ls
true, that should be the greatest rival
OF the Panama canal company.
The Mandingo route is only forty
miles south OF the Panama ditch. II
starts from the Mandingo bay. in the
gulf OF San Bias, cuts through the Cor
dlllera mountains, and then goes
straight to Che Bay of Panama II
differs from other Darien routes. in this
respect that It does not propose to
utilize any streams or lakes but cut
directly through solid rock, making a
canal bed which win need no repairs.
No locks or dams would be required.
The great engineering feature Of this
canal would be a tunnel Eve miles
long, 200 feet wide and about 200 feet
high. II is claimed that this can be
done at a cost much less than that
which Is required to overcome the din-
culties Of either the Nicaragua or the
Panama route. The distance from
coast to coast at that place Is only 20
niles and the work. 1t is estimated,
could be done In three years.

THE ARID REGIONS.

Hon. Chas. ID. Walcott, director of

magazine that the so-ealled arid regions
Of the country are so vast that no con-
ception can be formed Of their magnl-
tude, except by comparison, The State
