kindness that was once a marked
characteristic Of his most able work.
The colonel isn't happy any more un-
loss he is emptyiug viBls of rhetorical
vitriol on somebody's devoted head
while back he doUble-shotted his edi-
toriat guns and emptied them into
Newport society Now ne finds rot
tenness unspeakable in the Panama ca
nal business. Speaking of the change
from Nicaragua to Panama by the
United States senate the colonel says:
First one newspaper correspondent and
then another came out for Panama First
one expert and thCu another came out for
Panama. Public opinion thus manipulate
ed and supposed TO be adjusted. the gray
wolves of the senate began 10 show the
whites Of their eyes. then 90 Wag their
tliis then cautiously 90 come out i'm the
open, finally the Sp0oner act. setting
aside the Morgan-tiepburn bin and sub
shutting Panama for Nicaragua. But.
for the looks of it, they were not wholly
( insensiole Of the qualities. aud so-for ap-
peatauce sake-they Inserted "a clause set
ting forth that If there was any hitch i'm
the raufiC1 ton of the proposed treaty
with Colombia. the president should use
his discretion and select "a route. In other
words. the gray wolves. ian selling out TO

OF the goods S20000,00O should come TO

These statements amount to "A direct
accusation that certain senator's and
Washington correspondents. for money.
were Induced to vote and write i'm IA
vor of the Panama canal as against
I the Nicaraguan route. At the risk of
being accused by Colonel Watterson o.
/ receiving a share OF the bride money.
The Herald has no hesitation in saying
: that it cannot understand how think
! ing men could read the reports of the
canal commission on the two routes
and fail to decide i'm favor of Panama.
| This. not because OF. but in spite Of tho
ugly scandals that have been con-
nected with the Panama project. On
the ground of feasibility alone there Is
no room for hesitation between Pana-
ma and Nicaragua.
AS 20 the charges made by Colonel
Watterson, The Herald begs leave to
enter it's protest. We do not believe
the Washington correspondents of the
great newspapers Of the country were
bribed: one or two Of them may be
open to suspicion. but with rare eX-
ceptions the Washington correspond
ents are men Of the highest honor. the
most unimpeachable integrity. ANY
man who attempted to bride them
would be kicked out of their offices as
promptly as sturdy legs could accom-
plish the work.
The intimatiOn that certain senator's
were bribed is equally unwarranted-
almost without exception. the person
al characters Of our senators and con
gressmeu are beyond reproach.
