No Excuses from Turkey.

vices from Minister LeiSchman at Con-
stantinop1e to the state department
show that he made an energetic pro-
test to the porte against the action of
the Turkish officials at Alexandretta.
Mr.. Leischman's last cablegram further
sustains Consul Davis in his action
and the state department consequently
is not disposed to regard favorably any
complaints from the porte against his
defense of naturalized American citi-
zens.

GO TO SEE
MAUI RACES

Negotiations are now going on look
ing to the securing of steamer to
make trip to Kahului, with persons
who wish to attend the races on the
Fourth of July. There will be a good
race meeting. the people will make the
day memorable, and nothing Is to be
overlooked to secure as fine a crowd
from this city as possible.
The Inter-Island steamship company
has agreed to send steamer. leaving
this city on Friday evening, July 3,
and returning on Sunday, July 8. The
price for the service will be $500. It Is
expected that there will be secured at
least so passengers, which would make
the ticket fee $40 each for the round
trip. More people would cut down the
price proportionately.
Efforts are being made to arrange
for the taking over for the trip of the
Kamehameha league baseball club.
This club does not play on that day
and could readily make the trip. 1t is
thought a guarantee may be had from
the Wailuku club for game to be
played after the recess.
Charles Bellina has taken charge of
the affair, as he will make the trip to
look after his horses entered In the
races, and will list all persons wishing
to go, in the effort to secure the need
ed number of passengers to insure the
charter price of the steamer.

The canal treaty has at last been ratified by the
Senate over the head of Senator Morgan and in all
probability will receive Columbia's stamp of ap-
proval in the future, provided the interests
which opposed it in the United States fail to dis
cover means of blocking it in Central America. Ac-
cording to the terms of the treaty, work must be
started the canal within two years after ratifca
tion and, has frequently been pointed out, it will
require that length of time to get the route in such
condition that Americans live along it without
taking their lives in their hands. Unsanitary con-
ditions are the rule in Central America and before
this government will consent to send its army of
engineers and laborers to the canal site these con-
ditions must be ameliorated or done away with. To
accomplish this will require fully two years
1t is not likely that the older generation of
today will live to see the canal completed Large
bodies move slowly, and while government opera
tons usually thorough and lasting their rate of
construction is proverbally snail-like This is true
of the erection of government buildings the con-
struction of dams, quays ETC.. in the United States
and will probably be equally true of the work The
canal
But after all it may prove to be good thing if
the big ditch is not rushed to completion with too
great rapidity. The day that ships enter the
Isthmian Canal will mark the commencement of
new in the United States, and it is just as we'll
to conform with new conditions before one is con-
fronted with them. For thing, the canal means
navy. This is fact there is no getting away from
At present our coast defences may with safety be
confned.t to seaboard: the Pacific coast is so
thoroughly isolated SO far Europe is concerned
that it has received very little attention But when
the Isthmus is divide the Pacific coast will have to
keep as large feet on hand as the Atlantic This
means more cruisers and battleships. On the WHOLE
it is well that it will require years
to complete the canal. In that length of time the
United States can build navy commensurate with
its needs.
