earnest, and have prepared as far as
possible to argue the commercial aspects
Of the qaestion. The possibility or
volcanic disturbance has imported an
unexpected element into the debate,
but we doubt if it will go far in chang.
inc votes. A canvass of the Senate
made by enthusiastic Nicaragua sup
porters Shows majority for that route,
while more conservative estimate
is at least no more than optimistic party
guess. The supporters of the Panama
route are not unduly jubilant, nor need
they be so. Most of them, we are sure,
are perfectly willing to vote for the
Spooner amendment, because they
know it meets all the difficulties of the
case and if passed would assure the
construction of an isthmian canal.
There is no use in either side try
ing to anticipate those difficulties. Pa
mama supporters in the Senate have
recognized almost from the first that
lif good title could not be shown, Nj
caragua should be the choice. The
. Nicaragua interests have no open min6
about the question. Their intelligence
is closed circuit to all but one notion
and the partisan character of their ad
vocacy has prejudiced them in th'
estimation of the country. Senate
Morgan admittedly has his following
; well in hand, and that it is compact
o5edient party following is shown b.
the presence of only two Democrats Il
the list of canvassed senators aga1ns
Nicaragua and the inclusion of severa
very doubtful Republican supporters il
the canvassed list for that route. Tha
) fact will be brought out more fully i
the course of the debate.
It is impossible to imagine any othe
S logical and adequate course than
:, strong vote for the Spooner amend
e ment, which empowers the Preader
S to proceed with the building of Pal
e anna canal if the title is good, and, /
: default of that, to build N1caragu

whether there is a high assessment and
a low rate or a low assessment and a
high rate. For general economic rea-
sons, however. the former is much
preferable. Not only, as has been said,
can more equitable assessment be
secured in this way, but the general fin
|ancial standing of both the community
as a whole and of individual properties
in particular is thus shown to better
advantage
Finally, in considering this question,
regard should be had for the especial
conditions now existing in Porto Rico.
In the past large works of public uti1-
i ity have been betrayed from the trust
fund of meihing over two million do
liars placed by Congress for this pur.
pose at the disposition of the instllal
government. This fund is rapidly be
coming exhausted and future improve
ments will have to be made from cur
rent revenues. 1t is certain, therefore
that in the course of a very short tim,
additional income will be needed b,
the insular government if such work
, as the construction of roads and the dc
, velopment of educational facilities ar
to be prosecuted. With a low assess
ment of property an increase in tn
rate of the tax would have to be resor
: ed to in order to obtain the additions

@Twenty-eight years in that same

sitting before pile of heavy volumes
He went on to explain =" He's a trans

some Russian reviews, and an Italian
newspaper. | said to him: I see you
read many languages. He said he
made translations from nearly every
language, for all sorts of purposes
books, articles novels. He has been at
at it twenty-eight years He must al
ways have his seat, too I've seen him
come in late in the morning, find his
seat occupied, and wander about in a
helpless, irritated way until an atten-
dant volunteered to ask the intruder to
move. And when you see him settle
down with a sigh of relief and steady
his palsied hand against the railing to
get focus on the page, you'd be glad
to move if you happened to have intrud-

is long time and the same seat every
