PANAMA,s LOST RIRTHRIeHT.

Panama's two gunboats are for sale and her army Is reduced by law to 25C men. To such a complexion of monot- onous peace have affairs in the Central American state come by Uncle Sam's protectorate
 Perhaps a realization will begin to dawn upon the Panamans of what they have bartered away for the sordid boon ofssecurity. Along with their old allegiance has gone the right to revolt the new constitution gives the Unitel States the right to prevent. The prss- iGency may remain a prize for peace ful aspiration the fixed salary is with in 5000 of what our own chief eXecu- tive used to get. But what is S2i.000 n year. and in Colombian silver at that, to q revolutionary presidents "per- auisites?" With-only d corporal's guard of soldiery. with no navy to uphold his claims. the revolutionary leaders occu- pation is gone. The glory and glamour of the role have faded.
 The new state thus comes into being deprived of the chief attrac ction of Central American statehood. It has disposed of its birthright without counting tho cost.-New York World.

Minneapolis Tribune: It is not inn probable that the extreme assertion of
 the power of congress to regulate rail-
 roads will be followed, by a reaction
 towards reason and moderation in the
 exercise of 1t. The tendency is to ex- ercise disputed power with extraordi-
 nary vigor. Once firmly established,
 it's possessCrs begin to consider cir cumstances and conditions. The legis- lative power to control commerce has been settled beyond dispute by an un- broken line of supreme court decisions for a generation. Congress is now as supreme in this field as the Imperial parliament in the British islands. In Great Britain the power of parliament has been exercised with such a mix ture of firmness and reason that the public may travel for a penny a mile and the railroads all pay fair but not excessive dividends. This has come about. it may be said, through a policy of amalgamatfon of competing lines and division of territory among differ ent systems. That is another form of carrying out the principle involved in our poolings and combinations The point Is that everything has been done under the strictest supervision of par liament. We have taken the first step in the same direction by firm estab-

Somewhat of a Joke on the Demo-
 crats.

Democratic papers without exception are commenting the supreme court of the United States for its decision in the Northern Securities case, but these same papers are considerably embar- rassed by the decision in its political phase. The Sherman antitrust law has been sustained by the republican members of the supreme court and de- clared unconstitutional by the demo- cratic members. That is, five repub- lican justices upheld the law in an affirmative decision, and the three democrats on the bench-7Chief' Justice Fuller and Justices White and Peck
 ham-with Justice Holmes dissented from the majority.
 As one democratic journal (the Phil a delphia Record) explains, '"rhe demo- cratic justices are not on the side Of the corporation, but they are opposed to the extension of the federal power involved in the application by ma jority of the court of the Sherman law to the particular case under considera- tion. To affirm the right of congress to interfere with the ownership of property because that property is an instrument in commerce Is an exten- sion of the power of the federal gov ernment which five republican justices support and three democratic justices and one republican deny"
 And yet the democrats have been in- sisting for years that the federal gov ernment should take the trust evil in hand. How the government, how ever. can Ego after" the trusts except with the machinery of the federal courts has not been explained.
 The truth is, the democratic justices of the supreme court hold to the tra- ditional democratic doctrine that the powers of the federal government are, and should be, severely limited. Pre- sumably all the professors of political economy in the colleges still teach their students that, broadly speaking, the difference between the republican party and democratic party Is to be found most marked in their respective attitudes toward the general govern ment: the republican assigning broad ppwers to the central government. while the democrat emphasizes the au- tonomy of the states and the sacred ness" of individual rights. But 1t is a fact that while the democratic jus tices of the supreme court are as jeal- ous as ever of the rights of the states, the democratic masses have travelled away from the traditional democratic doctrine As they have embraced popullsm they have called more and more upon the federal government for relief against this and that ''eyil" until we have seen the party of Jefferson ad- vocating something like state social ism.
 And that's why the decision of the supreme court on the Northern Pacific Great Northern merger is a decided joke on the democrats. In commend ing 1t, as they do, they must condefIin their own members of the court.

State Chemist Walker of Nebraska, after spending several weeks in analyz- ing tomato catsup and strawberry jam, states that only one brand of catsuD was found which was made from to- matoes and was not artifcially colored. Pumpkin was found to form the basis of all the others, and the coloring is attained by means of coal tar dyes. All cases he found was made chiefly from pumpkin, colored with coal tar dyes and containing a preservative in the form of benzoic. Timothy seed was also found to be an ingredient in some cases

Our Ships and Men.

Captain Clarks famous dash with the battleship Oregon from San Fran cisco to the West Indian battle-ground. at the beginning of the Spanish war. will always be remembered with pride by the American people. With not a mishap to report. not even a journal heated, the Oregon, after steaming at full speed for 10000 miles, was ready for immediate battle, and the fact as- tonished the world. Practically, Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans has dupli- cated with a whole fleet the remark able feat performed by Clark. In a report from Manila just made public by the navy department Admiral Evans says:
 During the run from Yokohama to Honolulu the seas were the worst have. ever experienced, and continued practically throughout the entire run. The weather conditions from Honolulu to Cavite were better, and, on the whole the trip was an easy and com fortable one. During this run of prac- tically eighty-fiye hundred miles to Cavite no repairs or oyerhauling were done on the engines of any of the yes sels by any outside force, and only such was done by the force on board each vessel as could be taken in hand during the short time of the stay of the vessels in Honolulu when not oc- cupied in coaling. The speed maintain ed by the battleship squadron from yokohama to Honolulu was twelve and one-half knots. The battleship squad ron arrived in Cavite after this run of eighty-fiye hundred miles in as good condition as when it started out from Yokohama, and was ready fer any ser vice that it might be called on to perform. The same could be said of. the cruiser squadron. with the excep- ton of the Cincinnati. which needed new air pump rod.'
 Our ships and the men who sail them probably surpess in efficiency the ships and men of any other navy in existence. and when we have a few more battleships and cruisers nobody in all the earth will hunt for trouble with Uncle Sam.

Shall Niagara Falls be destroye1? :? Several Canadian and New York com panies. organized to make use of the water power at Niagara Falls for the generation of electricity. have al- ready obtained charters that enab'e them to build works which. when oper- ated at their full capacity, will divert one-third of the entire volume Of the river above the falls. A New York cor poration is now asking the legislature to give it unlimited rights to take and use the water. The company's de- mands are so large that the commis- siOncrs of the Niagara reservation or park have felt compelled to issue an urgent remoustrance on the grouni that the bill threatens the very exist ence of the falls. This company now possesses limited rights granted ten years ago. with a condition that it should begin operations within ten years. It has done nothing yet and asks for the privilege of unlimited use of the Niagara river without comp n- sation. In the discussion of the bill attertion has been called to the fact that two Canadian power companies are required to pay an annual rental of $15.OOO and a sum in addition, based on the amount of power they have 6e- veloped. on a graduated scale ranging from fifty cents to one dollar per horse power. One of these Canadian con- panies would be required under similar conditions to ray the state of New York SlT7.000 annually But the question of giving away this great natural ad- vantage Is of little moment to the pub lie in general compared with the 6ec struction of the falls themselves, one of the natural wonders of the world Boston Herald.
