The Panama Resolution.

Republican statesmen who pride
themselves on their acument, but
whose shrewdness is generally used in
hiding their real purpose from their
deluded followers. are evidently deter
mined to obtain their rake-off in the
Panama swindle at any cost. Just at
the right moment some one fui niShes
money and arms to the patriots at the
Isthmus and Colombia is knocked out
of the deal for the canal. A new re
public starts up in Il night and the
diplomats will have another and more
complacent crowd to dicker with. The
French will get their S40,000,0O0 fOr
their interest in the canal and the pa.
triots of the new republic will get
handsomely repaid for their energetic
revolution if the Panama canal is ever
built. What Colombia will do under
the circumstances remains TO be seen,
her avarice has been her ruin.
But how does the United States
stand? There are distinct charges
made from reputed sources, that Presi
dent Roosevelt and his Cabinet have
been mixed up in aiding this secession
of State from Il sister republic and
that the prompt aid of the naval forces
of the United States turned the scale
in favor of the revOlutiOnists. How
the European governments will view
this lapse of political virtue is not yet
settled and how our sister republic on
this content will feel will become ap-
parent in good time They may view
with dismay the evident intention of
the present administration to foster
revolutions, If the interests of Repub
lican leaders can be furthered by such
action Our trade with South Amer
will not be augmented if the govern.
ments of the countries are afraid of
our increased influence and interfer
ence The majority of the Republicans
in Congress will doubtless back up any
move the administration may make,
however desperate, but there must
surely be minority who will not bow
the knee to Bael. The Democrats may
be relied upon to protect the honor of
the United States and will welcome
the aid of the Independent Republicans
who will join with them for that great
purpose. In politics, as i'll business.
If strenuous administration will iinf

A Hoperui Pruspect.

The st. Louis Mirror has this story
of beloved president of an Eastern
college. One beautiful day the presi-
dent was strolling over the campus
with his wife. They were, admiring
ae buildings, some of which had been
erected by wealthy alumni.
Presently they came TO a noble hall,
built of stone. and occupying a COM
manding site. Over the main entrance
was a marble tablet, which announced
that the hall had been erected by
John C. Blank, as a Memorial to His
Beloved Wife"
The president stood for moment
and looked at the imposing pile. Then
he heaved 4 sigh that might have held
some envy.
"Ah," said he. .'that is what 1 should
like to do for my college"
He cannot understand why his wife
should have looked so Mortified.

American Honor in the Mud,

What Theodore Roosevelt. armed
with the power which the Presidency
of the United States gives him, has
really done at the Isthmus of Panama
is to seize the territory of the United
States of Colombia, "A country with
which We are at peace.
1t is an act of force, pure and SIM
ple-an act of piracy.
The attempts made to cloak the pir-
acy by using the Republic of Pana-
ma" created expressly for the commits
sion Of the crime, deceives nobody and

the lawless deed.
There is one SufiicinG answer TO all
the insufferable efforts of the admins
tration to bring its naked buccaneer-
ing under the shelter of international
law ard diplomatic usage:
Would Theodore Roosevelt have
dared to act toward Great Britain or
Germany as he has done toward Co
lombia?
1t is because Colombia is too feeble
TO fight that the courage to deSpoil her
has been found. Were she able 10
fight us. or to find allies 10 give her
strength she herself lacks. the whole
world would hold her justified in de-
claring war against us for what Mr..
Roosevelt has done at Panama.
Colombia must submit to Roosevelt.
unless the American Congress shall
come TO the rescue of American honor.
for the same reason that Panama sub
mitted to Henry Morgan. pirate, who
overpowered and looted the city.
What excuse can be offered for this
i6tOululuS CIilHe.
None that any honest man will offer
or accept.
But it will give us the canalr' cry
the Presidents supporters.
The canal can be had without pay
ing for it the price Of national charac-
ter and giving us before mankind the
rank of robber state.
The canal can be had without i'm
planting in the mind of every Latin
American republic the conviction that
we are not It's friend, but the enemy
above all others to be dreaded-with-
out giving it solid ground for the belief
that the Monroe doctrines real mean
ing is that we intend to keep European
plunderers away only that we our
selves may more safely steal, and that
nothing Central and South America
have will be secure when circum-
stances arise that may cause Us TO
| want it.
In order to get an interoceanic canal
it has been. and now is. only neces-
sary that President Roosevelt should
obey the law. The Spooner act COM
mands that. upon failure to get from
Colombia the concession for the Pana-
ma Canal, he shall turn to Nicaragua
and Costa Rica, which are ready to
deal with us honorably and quickly.
Instead of obeying the law President
Roosevelt has chosen to commit a
deed Of lawlessness, in the seizure of
| the Isthmus of Panama, the like of
which has never stained the history of
this republic.
If President Roosevelt shall be sus-
! tained in this Panama crime by his
party, then his party would sustain
him in any freebooting foray agains,

Vaseline.

Everybody knows the great value OF
this remedy in the household, but every
body does not know that the limitations
of it, which some second-class. druggists
dishonorably palm off on their custom
ers. have little or no value. What should
be understood by the public is that it is
not a mere question of comparative value
between "Vaseline" and the limitations,
but that the limitations do not effect the
wonderful healing results of the world
renowned 'Vaseline," and that they are
not the same thing nor made in the same
way. Besides this, many of the imita-
tions are harmful, irritant and not safe
to use, while true Vaseline is perfectly
harmless.
Perfect safety therefore lies in buying
only original bottles and other packages

ing Co. Attention is called 10 their

Hanna to the Rescue.


The egotiStical announcement of Sen
ator Hanna during the Ohio campaign
that a continuance of undisturbed busi-
ness conditions demanded his rGsafn to
the Senate, will soon be put to the
test. 1t is to he hoped that Senator
Hanna's statement, that his reelection
will preserve the industrial and buSi
ness situation from disturbance, will
be verified and that confidence, which
he believes to be the basis of prosper
ity will be preserved. The signs of the
times, however. do not bear out his
representations, as since his election
was assured the stock markets have
again largely declined and three banks
failed, two in Colorado and one in
Iowa, the day after election. That
sure barometer of business, the iron
and steel market. is becoming more
and more demoraliZed and on Nov.
9TH the steel billet pool reduced its
prices from S27 to S23 per ton The
Steel Trust being the dominating pow
er in the pool would not have agreed TO
this cut unless the conditions required
it. Cut nails have also been reduced
% cents Il keg and other products of
the Steel Trust have also been reduced
in price in like proportion. While these
cuts in prices are taking place in the
wholesale market. the reduced price to
the consumer has. so far. not ma terial-
lied and probably will not for some
time. The reduction fOreshadows the
much more serious problem of reduc
ton in wages that must certainly fol-
low in the spring of 1904. Then will
come the crucial test of Senator Han
mas statement that his reelection was
necessary to preserve the Industrial
and business situation from disturb
ance."
There may be no panic such as oc-
Cured in 1892 and 1893, but readjust-
ment of prices and wages is under
way and the result may be as disas-
trous to business and labor as in the
former trying times. That the process
has already commenced is certain. for
the New York Journal of Commerce.
Nov. 9th, reports that Il new scale of
wages has been signed by the employees
of the American Sheet Steel Company
at Scottdale. Pa. 1t goes into effect
on the first of the year and carries
reduction of 20 per cent in the wages
of the skilled wOrkmen. The same
newspaper reports on the same day
that 5000 coke ovens are idle i'll the
Connellsville region and the remaining
1900 ovens are only running about
half time. With an industry in such
shape a reduction of wages is sure TO
follow.

can party must nurse Senator Hanna

AS for the rank and file of the Repub-
licans, they will have to get along with
the rest Of us.
