Her Day of Grace, So Far az The
Panama Canal Treaty is Con-
cerned, Has Passed.
FUTURE CANAL NEGOTIATIONS
WILL Be WITH STATE OF PANAMA.
The German Foreign Office Has Of
flcially Notified AMbassadOr Tow
er That the Report That Germany
Would Become Involved In the
Issue In UnfOunded.

Washington, Nov. lit is stated
here on authority that it is too late for
Colombia to make any effort to resur-
rect the canal treaty with the United
States, and beyond preventing hostile
clash between Colombia and the new
republic of Panama, the proposed visit
of Gen. Reyes to Panama will be with
out result The same authority points
out that the United States government:
having recognized Panama as an inde-
pendent state, can not now proceed to
negotiate with Colombia on any terms
for canal rights in a state over which
colombia exercises no political con-
troll, so any future canal negotiations
will be between the United States gov
ernment and the government of Pana-
ma
No German Neddlinx.
Mr. Tower. cur ambassador at Ber-
lin. has cabled the state department
that he has been requested by Baron
Richthofen, the German foreign secre-
,tary. to inform the Washington govern
.ment that the report that Germany in
tended to become involved in the 18TH
milan situation is entirely without foun-
dation, and that nothing is known in
Berlin of the intention of Colombia
to appeal to Emperor William for as
sistance, as was alleged in a recent in
terview by the Colombian consulgen-
~eral at New York. Mr.. Tower adds that
he was further assured by the foreign
secretary in most earnest and sin
cere manner that the question of Ger
many's interfering in Panama simply
did not exist.
Twas Entirely Voluntary.
The statement is authorized that the
information conveyed to our ambassa-
dor at Berlin was entirely voluntary on
the part of the German government, as
the interview of the Colombian consul
general at New York had been ignored
here. The action Of the Berlin govern
mcnt is thoroughly appreciated by the
Washington government, for, although
it merely confirmed what the depart
ment already knew, the moral effect OF
the reiteration at this time of Ger
many's friendly attitude TO the United
States will not, it is thought, be lost
on the other powers.

GERMAN TROOPS At WARMBAD
Force of Mounted German Troops
With Artillery Arrive In the
Vicinity Of Warmbad.

Berlin, Nov. 1.-THE governor of
GermanSouthwestA Africa cables that $50
mounted troops with four guns have
arrived in the vicinity of Warmbad,
but he does not mention any fighting
with the rebelious natives, who SEEM
ingly are not contesting the advance of
the troops.
1t is believed that in consequence of
German representations the British and
Portuguese police in the adjacent terri
tories will endeavor to prevent further
supplis of arms and ammunition being
sent across the border by traders.

All the protected trusts which fatten
under the Dingley tariff, while selling
goods cheaper to foreigns than to Amer
leans, are with the republican party.
Hurrah, for the G. Q. p!
There are 800 trusts with 81, 900 .OO0,- :
900 capital. Whew! No wonder it costs
money to live during these Dingley days.
The workingman sells his labor In the
cheapest and buys his goods in the dear
est market. Cause, tariff on goods but
none on labor.
The cost Of living is 81 Per cent. higher
than in 1897. when the Dingley bill was
passed. Are your wages 81 per cent,
higher? IS.
The manufacturers and the trusts gel
the protection and tho profits or ths

humbug. Hon. Ben Butterworth. Ma,

Contract for New Well.

The city authorities of Indianola
have awarded a contract for sinking
a second artesian we'll. The entire
water supply is furnished by one
we'll, and since the location: of so
many industries at that place, the
pressure has at times been made
quate. The water from the first
we'll is so heavily charged with soda
and sulphur that it is somewhat
undesirable for drinking purposes,
and the new well is being sunk al
most a quarter of mile distant.
The old well is a little more than
1900 feet deep and furnishes about
100000 gallons day. <..<.,

BLUNDER or RRpuBLIcANs.


The Incompetence Of the administra-
ton in many matters OF great import
ance, especially to the Philippine islands.
is shown by a provision Of the act OF
March s, 1902, which was prepared by
the war department and enacted by con-
gress almost verbatim a. it came from
the president and Secretary Root. The
act provides that, after July 1, 1904, all
ships engaged in traEe among the
islands, or between island ports and the
United States, must have an American
registry. The entire internal commerce
OF the islands is now carried on In ships
built and owned by foreigners and It will
be physically impossible to secure Amer
lean vessels by July, 1904. There nre
over $4,000 vessels and boats engaged in
this tnter-island trade and the enforce
ment OF the law will completely paralfze
the commerce Of the archipelago. After
July l, 1904. however, unless the present
law is amended, the only ships which
will be permitted to touch at the six
ports of entry in the Philippine islands
will be those with American registry or
with Spanish registry under the terms
of the treaty of Paris.
<AS ~ DUP C0A OOLdAu AucIACAu AC6>
fstry unless built in the United States
or allowed registry by special act Of con-
gress, we may expect to see stubborn
fight by the American ship building in
terests against change in the law.
The republican leaders are nearly all
committed to the notorious ship subsidy
scheme, or in place of that discriminat-
ing duties in favor of American built
! ships, to bolster up our merchant ma
rfne, which has so sadly declined under
the protective tariff and the republican
policy. With the tariff reformed and the
! enormous protection that the steel trust
and the other trusts enjoy, reduced or
abolished, the price of the material that
enters into the construction of modern
ships would be vastly decreased. With
the tariff reduced on commodities that
include the necessaries of life, the cost
of living for all would also be lowered
and our artisans and workmen would
be quite willing to have their wages
proportionately decreased and thus an
other part of the great cost of building
| ships would be reduced. Monopoly,
backed by high protection is the cause
of most Of our econ omic troubles.

You pay tarin taxes to 500 0trusts-"In-

Uncle Sam Held Up.

r.
The Columbian government boldly
demands $25, 100000 for the Panama
canal concessions and gives the reason
for not accepting our offer of $40 900 600
that they need the larger amount. The
Colombians evidently think that as We
allow ourselves to be held up by most
any smooth American and defrauded by
our Office holders and others at home,
that we will stand for a good round
squeeze from our South American neigh
bors. Why does not President Roosevelt
see their bluff and at once commence
negotiations for the Nicaragua route.
which has many advantages over the
Panama. Is the administration waiting
until the transcontinental railroads give
permission to go ahead and build. the
canal or cease to oppose It? The people
of the United States long ago decided
that they wanted the Nicaragua canal
built and were defeated in their purpose
by q senatorial coteris led by Senator
Hanna. Has President Roosevelt joined
forces with them, or Is he opposed to tho
building OF any canal? The law author
lied and required him to proceed to ac-
quire the Nicaragua route, II the Colom-
bians rejected our proposition, but he has
done nothing.

CROWN PRINCE
WILL FORGIVE
Louise Of Saxony and
Husband May Be
Reconciled.

VIENNA, Jan. 4.-Reports have been
received here from sources closely con-
rected with the court of Saxony of a pos
sible reconciliation between the Crown
Princess of SaXony and her husband. The
family Of the Crown Prince are especial
Is concerned with the future of the Prin-
cess unborn child, desiring it's birth to
occur under conditions permitting of
proper Identification and to prevent possi-
bic substitution, which it is supposed the
Princess might attempt If the Crown
Princes family attempted to claim the
child.
While King George angrily insists that
his sons faithless wife be cast adrift, it
is understood that the Crown Prince
places no obstacles in the way of re-
Cancellation should his wife be willing to
come back. 1t is naturally to be under
stood, according to report, that it is i'm
possible to permit the Princess to return
to Saxony and become Queen, but the
suggestion is made that she reside in re-
tirement near the frontier, where she
could see her children occasionally.
No effort will be made to negotiate with
M. Giron, who is regarded as a raw stu
dent, but it is thought that the Princess
might be induced to accept the foregoing
proposals on account of her love for her
children.
