The Panama Canal.

Just as we expected, the Panama
canal is not dug yet. Early in the
spring we advanced practical and
wonderfully cheap plan for accom-
plishing the work.
We felt the inward fussing of de-
sire for vacation working in us, and
reasoned that the same leaven was
fermenting in thousands and thou
sands of other men.
Now what we advised was to cre-
ate a great furore about the fishing
in the immediate vicinity of the pro-
posed canal, attract all the fishermen
to South America and upon their ar
rival, set them to digging bait along
the canal route. The immense amount
of labor expended every summer dig
ging worms, if corraled and crystal
lied, would dig the Panama canal in
one fishing season. The cost to the
government would be really immateri-
al, and the worm hunters would just
as soon dig in one place as another.
We outlined this plan, as above
stated, early in the spring, but for
some unknown reason the government
has not seen fit to adopt it. The re-
suit is, the bait-digging season for the
open. year is about done, and no
prospect of getting up enthusiasm
over buried treasure is in evidence
Now the government will be COM
PEELED to pay out great sums of money
to construct the waterway. but it's
good enough for it. Hereafter when I
diagnose a saving of several million
dollars to this nation, the government
will jump at the proposition as ward
politician jumps at a growler. 1t is
the fate of great thinker to be ig-
nored for time, but sooner or later
the biographers of this country will
invite him to buy book in which his
picture is printed. This is the history
of all great men, and we are always
willing to incite history to do her
worst.

Damages at Paterson, NJ. Esti-
mated at Over So, 600, 900.
LOSS IN BRIDGES s5oo,Ooo.

Paterson, N. j., Oct 13.-On Satur-
day last the people expected The Great
Dundee Dam to go at any minute and
a gun was fred as signal of extreme
danger. Had it given away it was
feared that there would be repetiti,Si
of the Jolnstown disaster. But on
Sunday morning the waters of the
Pasaic river began to fall at the rate of
an inch an, hour.
At the height of the flood the hill,
standing between the river basin above
the falls and the lower valley, was
rapidly caving away into the gorge
below the falls, and it was feared on
Sunday that the flood would wash
away the dixie and precipitate itself in
huge wall upon that city lying be-
low.
Below the falls large part,of the
city, situated in the valley on either
side of the river, was still inundated
at night, but the waters were receding
rapidly, having fallen twenty-eight
inches from flood height ut 6 p. m.,
though still several inches above the
maximum height of the flood of 1902.
Thousands of persons are temporari-
ly homeless, most of them being
received at the houses of friends in the
un1ooded districts, while 1880 were
sheltered at the armory, fed and cared
for by the organized CHARITY of the
city. No assistance has1beenEaslSed
from outside, and the city will look
after its destitute.
1t will be impossible closely to csti-
mate the loss until the food subsid es
but it will exceed two millions dollars.
But three bridges and u part of
fourth OF the seven below the falls re-
main and the cost to the county to
replace those destroyed will be at least
$500, 900. The three bridges standing
are on substantial concrete. They arc
completely covered by water,
Many buildings have collapsed and
the foundations of many have been
weakened by the flood and some of
these may fall. The total will also be
large augmented by the loss through
out Passaic county, reports of bridges
washed away, roads destroyed and
property and crops ruined coming from
all points. The loss in the county out
side of Paterson Will equal that inside
of the city.
On account of the exposure of many
OF the sufferers to the downpour of
cold rain an epidemic of pneumonia is
feared.
