A p,Fr.c1,LT UNDERTAKING.

The President is understood as doing
his utmost to prevent Congress from
taking any action in the Schley case.
On Monday he had long talk with
Admiral Schley. 1t is not known of
course how wide a range their CONVEX
sation took, but ii is believed that the
President agreed to review the finding
of the Schley court of inquiry.
The President is quoted as having
said that he would have reprimanded
Gen. Miles just as severely If the lat
ter's expression of opinion had been in
favor of Sampson instead of Schley.
What he is trying to do is to put a
stop to the controversy.
Will he be able to do that? 1t is
doubtful People are not going to stop
talking and writing about the contro-
versy simply because the President
wants them to do so, or because it is
claimed to be for the best interest of
the navy that the controversy should
be hushed up. Their sense of justice
takes precedence of everything else.
The Secretary of the Navy has taken
the Trouble 10 MTlIe 10 OeDdtOt 4NSiSOl
that the Navy Department is not re-
sponsible for the payment of so large
a part of the bounty money arising
from the naval battle of Santiago to
Admiral Sampson. He points out that
the law gave the money to Sampson,
and that the matter was decided by
the court of claims and not By the
Navy Department. There was an im-
preston that the decision of the Court
of Claims in the bounty matter was
based on a chart which was prepared
by the Navy Department, and which,
during the Schley inquiry. was pro-
nounced to be worthless, but the Sec
rotary says that such was not the case.
The law gave the money to the COM
mander-in-chef of the squadron, and
it would have been awarded to him
even If he had been on the other side
of Cuba when the battle was fought.
1t is probable that the Schley case
will come up in Congress in some shape.
The people seem to be determined that
justice shall be done to Admiral Schley.
and Congress is pretty certain to re-
spond to the popular will. If the Pres
ident succeeds in keeping the matter
from assuming prominence in Congress
he will be more fortunate than it is
generally believed he will.

THE STATES FINANCES.

1t is evident from the statement in
our dispatches from Atlanta yesterday
that the finances of the state, notwlth-
standing the 1925, $3.50 turned into the
general fund from the public property
fund, are far from being in a healthy
condition. The inference from the
statement is that the Legislature, when
it was making appropriations, hadn't
a clear idea of the states financial
condition. Assuming that such was
the case it seems curious that it should
have gone ahead making appropria-
tons without knowing whether the
revenues would be sufficient to meet
them.
1t turns out that even with the as
sistance the treasury has received from
the public property fund it will not
be possible to pay the school teachers
promptly even though the old plan
of borrowing 100000 is resorted to.
There will be enough with that sum
to pay them for the first two months
wait for the salaries due them for the
other months.
1t seems that the state was much
deeper in debt than it was generally
understood to be. When the resolution
to pay the interest on the bonded debt
was pending in the legisla ture, the
impression was that if the resolution
passed the state would be able to pay
all of its obligations promptly. Why
was not a clear statement of the
states financial condition made at that
time? In making appropriations it
was the duty of each Senator and Rep
resentative to know just what the
states obligations were and what it's
revenues.
AS we pointed out yesterday. the
next administration is going to have
trouble to find ways for raising suffi-
cient revenue 20 pay all of the states
current obligations. The pension
charge has become so large that the
ordinary five mill tax does not pro-
duce sufficient revenue to meet the
obligations. And the Legislature
refuses to cut down expenditures. The
only thing TO be done therefore is to
raise the tax rate. If the people in
sist upon annual sessions of the legis-
lature and pensions for person who
have ample incomes they must stand
a higher rate of taxation.

CANAL SITUATION CHANGED.

The representative of the Panama
Canal Company has arrived in Wash
ington prepared to make a vigorous eff
fort to have the United States accept
the companys offer of the canal for
$40. 900, 900. 1t is evident therefore that
there will not be canal legislation as
promptly as it was thought there
would when Congress took It's holiday
recess.
AT that time it was confidently be-
lieyed that as soon as Congress re-
assembled the Senate would pass the
Morgan canal bill, which provides for
the construction OF canal on the Mic
aragua route, and that the House
would pass the Hepburn bill without
delay, and, the two bills being pretty
nearly alike, it would not therefore
take the two Houses long to agree
upon a bill. In fact, it was thought
that a canal bill would be passed be-
fore the end of January.
There is plenty of talk now to the
effect that it is a matter of doubt
whether the Panama or the Nicaragua
route VIII be chosen. 1t is asserted
that the report of the 18TH
milan Canal Commission is a
covert argument in favor of the
Panama route. and that the commits
sion declared in favor Of the Nicaragua
route only because of the price de-
manded by the Panama Company at
the time the report was made. The
price was about $12O, 100000. There is
quite difference between that and
the price now asked, namely, $4,000,
900. The latter price is the amount
which the commission said the canal
property was worth.
1t is safe to predict that there is
going to be great contest in Con-
gress over the routes. The Panama
route has it's friends and so has the
Nicaragua route. And the Pacific
railroad companies will take care that
the contesting factions are kept apart
as long as possible. If they have their
way there will be no legislation in ia
vor of an isthmian canal.
A choice of route will, of course,
be made, and the contest over the
routes may result benefcially to this
country. Nicaragua and Colombia are
inclined to be exacting in their de-
mands, and in proportion as they be-
come alarmed about losing the canal
they will become more liberal in their
concessions. From present indications
the canal question is going to be the
most interesting one in Washington

mother was somewhat deaf, but appar-
emily heard all he said, and bore off her
daughter, determined to carry out the
prescription to the letter.
In two weeks she was back with the
girl, who was rosy checked, smiling
and the picture of health.
The doctor naturally congratulated
himself on his skill, and said cordially:

THE LIBERTY BELL.

The most famous and cherished relic
of the Revolutionary period, the Lib
erty Bell, from independence Hall,
Philadelphia, will be in savannah from
an early hour this afternoon until to-
morrow morning. when it viii continue
it's journey to the Charleston EXPOSE
ton. 1t comes with much pomp and
circumstance, being escorted by d dis
tinguished delegation including the
Mayor and a number of Aldermen of
Philadelphia. The bell and its attend
ants will be given an enthusiastic re-
cepton.
This will be the Liberty Bells second
visit to Georgia. Its first was TO At
lanta, where it formed one of the most
interesting exhibits at the Cotton
States Exposition. 1t will be gazed
upon during the afternoon and evening
by thousands of persons, to whom the
occasion win be the opportunity of a
lifetime. 1t may be said without quail
fication that the old bell is more gen
orally revered in Georgia for The senti-
ment that clings to it and for what it
represents than ii is in the state of it's
home; not that the native American in
Pennsylvania is less patriotic than the
native American in Georgia, but that
the native element in Georgia's popu-
lation is very much greater than in the
population of Pennsylvania. The recent
census showed that the foreign element
in Georgia was very low-something
like per cent. All the rest of her peo-
pie are Americans, and descendants OF
families whose fathers and sons fought
in the war that followed the Liberty
Bells call to arms for the cause of
freedom. In this most American part
of the country, therefore, it is but nat
ural that there should be a more gem
eral love and reverence for this old
link between the glorious past and the
great present.
Savannah feels honored by the visit
of the bell, and the opportunity that
is afforded her citizens to view it. And
to the gentlemen who compose the
guard of honor, she throws open her
doors and bids them cordial welcome
Her regret is that the visit must be

1T MAKES A DIFFERENCE.

Was it not James S. Hogg. former
Governor of Texas, who was chiefly in
strumental in having the anti trust
laws of that state enacted? If we are
not mistaken il was. He made his
reputation for craftsmanship by his
fight against trusts, and on the anti
trust issue was elected Governor.
We see 1t stated in the dispatches
that he has succeeded in selling a big
part Of his holdings in the Beaumont
oil district of Texas to the Standard
Oil Company. The purchase price is
said to be $4,000, 900. 1t seems that
a new company has been formed to do
business in TeXas-a new company
but which is. in fact. the STANDARD OIL
Company. The STANDARD Oil Com
pany cannot do business in Texas be-
cause OF the antitrust laws which Mr..
Hogg was largely instrumental in hav-
ing passed. Thus it appears he is as
sistlng in having the laws, which he
so earnestly advocated few years
ago when he was poor man. nullified
in order that he may make a deal by
which his suddenly accumulated
wealth may be increased.
The condition of a mans pocket has
great deal to do with his opinions
on public questions. The presumption
is that MIR. Hogg has no objection at
all now to trusts. though when he was
making his antitrust campaign a few
| years ago it is probable that The GOOD
farmers who listened to his speeches
felt that he was a sort OF Moses who
was leading them out of the clutches
OF the money-devil. The standpoint
from which a man views a public ques-
ton makes all the difference in the
world-the standpoint OF full or an
| empty pocket.

CURRENT COMMENT.

1.-THE cost of living in the United
States has increased 40 per cent. since
1897. Dun's Review is authority for
this blunt statement, and IL is the re-
suit OF a thorough survey of the field
and expert consideration of all the
conditions involved. Dun goes on to
show what has caused the increase and
who got the benefit of II. for. of course,
everybody cannot lose without some
body's gaining. In this case ii is the
farmer, the man who has been trying
all these years to make the public be-
lieve that II is not giving him fair
show to make a living. Manufactured
articles rose in price during the period
mentioned about 90 per cent. wearing
apparel II per cent; but meats gained
80 per cent, dairy and garden prod
Ucts 20 per cent. and breadstuffs 30
per cent. The farmer feeds us, and
the operation costs 40 per cent. more
than it did four years ago.

Webster, when once pressed to speak
on subject of, great Importance, re-
fused saying that he was very busy
and had no time to master it. When
a friend urged that a few words from
him would do much to awaken public
attention to the subject he replied: III
