printed by the Mitchell Printing
Go. We notice one of it's editorial
sentiments to be as follows, which
is quoted us the platform of the
league:
$ Its methods are political but
not partisan"
That means Republican and
Democratic politics. And that is
what makes us tired.
Textbooks on political econo-
my say that this country is govern
ed by party--not parties. Both
the Republican and Democratic
parties are whisky parties.
The Prohibition party is the
only temperance party there is in
this country. When it comes to
voting there is no real choice but
a choice between whisky party
and an anti-whisky party.

A FAITHFUL SERVANT.

In eYesS trade and profession activity Oscil-
lates between wide extremes. AT certain hours
of the day the streetcarS restaurants ana BAR
Der shops are crowded. while at others they are
almost deserted. The merchants have their
dull and busy seasons If one stands near the
switchboard of telephone exchange just be-
fore 10 o'clock in the morning he will be aston
ished at the sudden increase of calls that come
pouring in simultaneously few minutes later.
In like manner the duties of the lawyer, ply
stefan, preacher and teacher are more exacting
at one time than at another, and all such mem
bers of society sigh for more uniform distri-
button of the demands upon their time and
strength.
From this universal law the postman is not
exempt. Not only is he obliged to make his
rounds in all kinds OF weather. but his burdens
vary greatly. Sometimes he has little besides
letter mail to deliver. Sometimes he carries
load of papers and periodicals that would I'LL &
pedlers pack, His busiest season, though, is
during and before the holidays. Practically all
of the greetings that go in the form of cards
and an. enormous proportion of the gifts which
are bestowed at this time Of year are sent by
mail Much of this class of merchandise is
sent to the purchaser at his home by the de-
livery wagons OF the establishments at which
he procures it. Thousands of parcels are car
ried by the buyers themselves in public con-
veyances The resources of the express COM
panies, in town aud out OF town. are taxed to
the utmost In the same service. Yet the post
man, with his coadjuter inside the office from
which he issues, ranks first among the helpers
of Santa Claus. For the promptness and pa
tience the intelligence and zeal with which he
meets his responsibilities he should have a
unanimous vote of thanks

PANAMA. AND ooLoHBr4s DEBT.

Ar. Bunsu-V sFiIla makes the interesting and,
en the whole, gratifying announcement that
Panama win voluntarily assume its proportion
OF Calendars foreign debt This is somewhat
Unexpected. since the impression was recently
given that Panama would refuse 10 assume any
portion OF that debt. and there were those who
supposed the United States would approve and
sustain such refusal. The case Of Cuba was
-recaled 10 which, despite the strenuous efforts
OF Spain, the American peace commissioners
iEteadfasty refused TO let the island be burdened
with any part of the huge debt which Spain
sought % saddle upon it. But the two cases
are not exactly alike. The debt which Spain
wanted Cuba 10 assume was contracted not for
Subais benefit but largely for its subsection 70
Spanish rule, ana for other Purposes OF Spain
IN other parts Of the world and Cuban repudia-
lion Of responsibility was therefore logical and
just. Panama however, has hitherto sustained
e more intimate relation with Colombia than
Cuba did with SPAIN and the Indebtedness
which il is now 10 assume is not a separate
debt specially created and specially charged
against Panama, but merely part Of the COM
mon dest of Colombia, fer which Panama was
indfspltably responsible as long as it remained
"a member OF the Colombian union
Had Panama decided 10 resist responsibility
for any part Of the Colombian debt il might
been said upon both sides. Questions of inter
natiODal law would have been involved con-
cerIlinS the responsibility Of a seeding State
Tor the financial obligations Of the parent State
with various arguments and presidents pro
and contra. Questions Of fact would have been
raised concerning the actual benefit received
by Panama in return for the indebtedness in
CURED, ON which testimony would have been
.FTefuse and contradictory. There would also
have been the question Of equity-whether,
apart from law and fact, Panama ought not 20
assume some OF COlombias debt seeing that It
was securing so large a share OF Colombia's
assets
All these questions are brushed aside, how
ever by Panamas offer 20 assume share Of
the eebt proportional 10 her share OF the whole
Colombian population, 10 wit, about 81 600 900.
in so doing Panama may be acting generously
or merely Justly. We need not discuss which
What seems certain is that Il is acting wisely

COLLEGE SPORTS THIS YEAR

The contests of the collegians even quarter
century ago brought together muititudes of
gratifed and enthusiastic spectators. But 1909
in many fields Of endeavor has excelled records
to an extent that has caused general rubbing
Of eyes and countless gasps of amazement
1t is striking feature of this memorable
year that the attendance at several of the com
petitions in which our best known universities
took part surpassed all preceding figures. The
financial managers of football are especially
1ubilant, and have much cash on hand that
the calls for subscriptions to meet expenses
may be comparatively easy in 1904

THE DRAMA.
NEW PLAY At THE GARDEN.
Merely Mary Ann. T"

Mr. ZangwiITs new play. called Merely Mary
Ann" which has been received with some favor In
other cities was produced last night at the GARDEN
Theatre with Miss Eleanor Robson and Mr. Edwin
Arden in it's chief characters-Aary Ann, a servant
and Lancelot. a musical composer. The servant
captivates the composer. and by him is eaptVated
but Laneelot behaves in a manner that Is worthy
of the bearer OF his name and these loving SWANS
part in innocence. Later. when Mary Ann has In
herited some money and become polished
member OF society, they meet again, ana
at last they happily united. The actress OF
Mary Ann has to show the contrast Of character as
affected by social conditions. Miss Robsons hnita-
tons are extremely narrow, That the various emo
tons incident TO the character Of Mary Ann were
felt and understood by Miss Robson was entirely
evident and SO also was her failure to move her
audience by these displays An apparent inclination
to initiate Miss Maude Adams is considerable
hinderance to Miss Robson Mr.. Edwin Arden is
actor OF experience and commonplace talent. His
failure, therefore. to adequately imPersonate the
part of Lancelot would have been more remarkable
than his success.
Satisfactory subsidiary performances were given
by Mr. Frank DOane, ". A Hackett, Thomas
Graham. Miss Ada Dwyer and Miss Kate Pattison

phasizes the advantages OF natural talent. expe-
