pondents who have been looking into
things on the Isthmus have reported
that graft is running riot in the con-
struction work now being done, and
tho management Of canal affairs, as a
result of the incompetency of the
present commission is in a sad state
of generalization. The fact has been
very clearly demonstrated that the
building of the canal can not be direct
ed with any measure of success by a
body of men with their headquarters
in Washington and New York, thou
sands of miles away.
Therefore, the president has very
wisely determined to appoint as canal
commissioners only such men as are
willing to live on the Isthmus and
give their personal attention to the
construction of the waterway, the
purchase of materials, and a business
like accounting of all the funds ex-
pended in order that the graft and
corruption that wrecked the French
Canal Company may be prevented.
What the country desires is a com

the determination to undertake the

) JOHN TEMPLE GRAVES
ON THE "WHITE PRIMARY

No man in the South is better or
more favorably known than John
: Temple Graves, the able and eloquent
editor of the Atlanta News. No man
either has given more thought to
southern problems or is more compe-
tent to speak with authority on south
ern issues than is Mr. Graves.
II is interesting therefore to know
what he has to say in reference to the
White Primary subject which Pen
sacola just now has under full con-
sideration. In Wednesdays issue of
the Atlanta News, as if in answer al
most to some of the arguments with
which the Anti-Primary advocates in
this city are now trying to poison the
public mind, Mr.. Graves says:
We are not willing to lie down any
longer in the presence of the negro
and let policies go away and princi-
pies go hang because Of his sombre
and snadowy balance of power"
which hovers about us. If we can't
divide into two parties. We can at
least fight out our convictions in the
ranks Of our own party. and We can
submit TO white primaries-which are

In view of the fact that the Spooner

able to reduce the membership of that

intended, but it will not prevent him
from making changes in the commits

from Washington that this week the

GOVERNOR or COLORADO
MEANEST MAN IN STATE.
Memphis commercial-Appeal.
iss Z Z !. Z Z Z 3 Z

In casting about to find the meanest
man in Colorado, We have decided to
cast our vote for ]. F. Mcdonald, who
is now acting as governor of the state.
IN the November election, Alva Adams,
democrat, and James F. Peabody, re-
publican, were candidates for COVER
nor. Adams had been governor before
and is man of the highest character
Peabody may be called the Grand
Duke Sergius o. Colorado He is a
man of only one redeeming quality,
namely that of nerve. In the election
Adams received a majority of about
1900 votes, and was duly installed as
governor. Peabody thereupon institut-
ed contest, claiming that if the frau
dulent votes were eliminated. he would
have a majority. The contest. un-
fortunately was made before the legis-
lature, which was overwhelmingly re-
publican. A considerable number of
democratic votes was thrown out,
while all the questionable republican
votes were retained. When partisan
unscrupulousness had done its worst
Adams still had lead of over 1000
votes. Peabody in the face of this, de-
manded that the legislature declare
him elected. There were several re-
publican legislators honest enough to
gag at this, but not honest enough to
vote to seat a democrat who had been
elected. Thereupon some rascal sug-
gested that the legislature should seat
Peabody with the distinct understand
ing that he should resign, and tnat the
Lieutenant-Governor, Mcdonald, should
become governor. This program was
carried out. The actually elected
governor, Adams, promptly wiped his
hands of the whole bunch of thieves
and retired with the respect of the
entire state. What does the whole
transaction mean? 1t means. in the
first place, that the republicans in the
legislature admitted that Peabody had
not been elected. 1t means that they
aff1xed their names to a deliberate lie
when they declared him elected. 1t
means that they became participants
In carefully laid plan to swindle the
man who had been elected, and put
In MS place a man who had not re-
ceived a single vote for governor. It
means that Peabody himself admits
that he was defeated. and had not the
manliness to accept nis medicine II
means that his contest was a bunko

tors as thieves and Peabody as high

Now, really, Mansfield, olG boy,
throughout the two score years and
three of our mutual friendship and
Intimate acquaintance, l have always
believed l could fathom the depths of
your most secret thoughts; that my
understanding of your very nature
was so acute that none of your tai
ents could escape my discernment,
but 10 and behold how shallow after
all are our powers of perception, how
inaccurate, sometimes, are our esti-
mates of human nature. Yes, during
all the years that have gone before,
the years which sit so lightly upon
your noble brow, and yet so heavily
upon my overburdened frame, | have
been egotist enough to believe that

ments were familiar to me; but again
and again, how prone are we, in our
moments of weakness. to err.
But after all, is there not an avenue
OF escape for me from the humiliating
chagrin which is consuming me-
chagrin, consequent to my misconcep-
ton OF your occult powers? In all
earnestness, beg of you, Mansfield,
not to regard as an impertinence my
criticism Of your disregard for an old
true and tried friend in neglecting to
advise him of your possession of those
rare and priceless gifts of the proph-
cts of old; that coming events are to
you as clear as the noon-nay sun: that
as | can recite events Of the past. so
to you has been given the power of
foresight into the mysteries of the

Perhaps, though, you are unaware
that the above quoted card would in

( THE BUSHIOO.
Moral Doctrines of the Samursi That
Rule In Japan.

Moral Doctrines of the Samurei That
Rule In Japan.
"The bushido" means "the moral doc.
trines of the samurai," and they are
obeyed by all the statesmen, soldiers
and scholars of Japan of the present
time with as much holy respect as the
Christians reverence for the Bible
and its teachings. In Japan Buddhism
is the popular religion, but Buddhist
teachings are not respected by educat.
ed men or soldiers. In fact, most of
them are atheists or agnostics, who
do not believe in any religion but the
doctrines of ''the bushido."
'"The bushido," for instance, teaches
a man or woman to have the courage to
perform the hara kiri if he or she COM
mits a serious offense. The spirit Of
this doctrine is that the offender should
kill himself instead Of waiting to be
executed by the law, which latter is
considered in Japan as one of the most
cowardly thing. "The bushido" also
teaches that the life of a Japanese is
a gift Of the holy mikado, and If the
country needs the lives Of her people
they should be given gladly, for that
is only to return to the mikado what
they have received from him.
To die on the battlefield is the only
key for a Japanese to find his way to
his Shinto heaven, and the soldiers
who were not killed on the battlefield
are considered unfortunate. 1t is main
tanned in Japan that if a man gives
you a favor or money or pleasure you
should return IT with more than what
was given to you.-Hydesaburo Ohashi
In Leslie's Weekly.
