Metielling pass III the mountains 100
miles northeast of Feng Oheng direct
ly east of Liaoyang. This is the only
pass through the mountains on the
road to Liaoyaug and it has long been
expected that the Russians would take
firm stand here to prevent further
advance of the japanese. The place
is almost perfectly adapted to de-
fensive fight, being narrow and be-
tween high walls making 1t possible
for comparatively small force to re-

Two questions of considerable i'm
portance confront the Panama Canal
Commission how to raise the funds
and whom to employ to do the actual
work of construction. AS to the
financial problem, Secretary Shaw
proposes to issue $3.50, 900, 600 of canal
bonds, to be taken up by the people.
The bonds will contain a portrait of
the late Senator Hanna, and when
they are put upon the market, the ad
mirers of the Senator, and those who
have been so anxious for the canal,
can manifest their patriotism by roll
ing up huge subscription. The
labor question need not he settled Just
yet for some time will be needed to
prepare the plans and specifications.
At present it looks as if tens of thous-
ands OF Chinese coolies will have to
be brought to the Isthmus. A white
man cannot bear up under the climate
while digging in the trenches. Much
of the work might be done by electric
light, after sunset. 1t has been asked
if the 8-hour law of 1899 will apply
to this government contract? Ad-
miral Walker says to adopt this law
would prolong the construction of the
canal for couple of years.

The reports of a general sagging
while undoubtedly exaggerated, cause
some uneasiness in political circles
There is what Mr.. Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation
of Labor, calls reaction" quite
natural after the high tide Of prosper
ity. He keeps in touch with labor,
and feels sure that the general pros
perity will continue, and that any
thing like a panic is many years Off
That his views have weight is owl
dent from the fact that the President
invited him to the White House the
other day for a prolonged conference
During the past year this country has
sustained great and extraordinary
financial losses by flood, fire, an un-
usually severe winter, the cotton boil
weevil and other pests, the falling Off
of imports, the drain upon gold and
the numerous labor troubles. These
things combined. which are neither
political nor partisan, have produced
a condition of serious thoughtfulness
on the part OF political managers
But as Senator Foraker, of Ohio,
says, there are no fundamental differ
ences among Republicans, and Presi-
dent Roosevelt is popular. His views
on public questions are well known
The season is propitious for good
crops, and there should be no falling
off in production. The greatest liza
bility is the possibilities of the in
dustrial and labor situation.

treated fairly. Their honest beliefs

Again, let the Journal caution
Montpelier Republicans to choose
their delegates with view to the
work that will be cut out for them.
The Montpelier delegation should take
a leading position in the councils of
the party, The caucus is one of the
first to be held and the influence of
its action may be felt before the con-
vention. Let that influence be towards
party harmony and party strength,
and therefore an old time party
victory.

Post-office matters continue to
occupy much attention. The verdict
of Not guilty, Tin the Tyner- Barrett
conspiracy case, came SO quickly and
decis,vely in favor of the defendants,
as to cause much surprise, when it is
remembered how the aged general and
his brilliant nephew have been
scored right and left, in Congress and
by the press. At the same time it is
gratifying to the Administration to
have it jud cially decided that there
was no conspiracy in Gen. Tyner' s
bureau in the post-office, and that
neither he, nor his assistants allowed
get-rich- quick concerns and other
fraudulent enterprises, to make an
unlawful use of the mails. So both
sides are vindicated. 1t is now an

intends to take steps to eliminate
