for them to oppose it, whether
right or wrong.
The new State Of Panama al
ready has an agent in Washing
ton, fully authorized to nego-
tiate a canal treaty with this
Government.
Speaker Canon says his great
est personal ambition has now
materialized, but along about
1908 the people may give him a
higher honor.
Mcclellan has sworn that his
election to be Mayor of New
York cost him nothing, but proof
could easily be produced that it
would take at least eight figures
to state the amount it cost those
who backed him and expect to
use him.
China and Corea have reason
to regard with fear the under
standing reached by Japan and
Russia, as they will have to pay
the freight.
Russia is said to be anxious to
retain American friendship. 1t
is easily done. All we ask is
that our commercial rights in
the far East shall not be meddled
with.
That Italian who scoffed at
the Monroe doctrine, in a speech
before the Venezuelan arbitra-
ton tribunal, at The Hague, can
have his mind changed
if he will apply for information
to several of the largest Euro
pedH governments.
The more tariff the democratic
Senators talk this winter, the
more republican voters there
will be next year.
Failure number one was scor-
ed for the democrats of this
Congress when their attempt to
get the House and Senate at log
gerhead over the form in which
Cuban reciprocity should be pro-
vided for fell through.
A superintendent of Nilsson
ri almshouse had all the teeth of
an insane female inmate extract
ed because, while in fit, she bit
him. 1t would be difficult to
name a punishment to fit such a
crime.
anarchists can get no protec-
ton in our courts. Judge Lar
comb, of the u. S. circuit court
of New York, has dismissed the
writ of habeas corpus by which
John Turner, an English Anar-
chist, sought to evade the edict
of deportation issued by the
Washington authorities.
Congressman Baker, of New
York, who has obtained some
notoriety by refusing railroad
passes, stampeded the democrat
ic House caucus by Offering a
resolution pledging the demo
Gratis to accept no railroad pass
es. He discovered the difference
between talk for home effect and
action when his resolution was
referred to a committee to die.
Speaker Cannon has the knack
of stating things in condensed
form. For instance, he said of
the trust situation in his speech
to the House caucus: "The re-
fusal of the multitude to invest
its savings in such over-capitali-
cation has destroyed fictitious
values AID the recovery from
the local indigestion arising from
consumption of wind and water
is assured.
Mr.. Bryan did not get that
