suits could be hoped for.
But not by November II, the
date set for the extra session.
There is no call whatsoever for
immediate canal legislation, no
reason whatsoever for worrying
over the present status of things.
Nobody knows this better than
President Roosevelt. Why, then,
this talk of canal legislation in
connection with the extra sessions
Can it be that the President feels
it necessary to make good his bluff
of an extra session and, respond
ing to the gentle proddings of per-
sons much interested, is weakening
in his enthusiasm for the right
sort of railroad legislation, as he
weakened in his tariff reform cru

Napoleon's Gun for Oyama.

Pail Mail Gazette: neral
Oyama is reported to have been the
recipient of unique gift from a
European admirer whose name and
nationality do, however, not trans
pire. 1t is an old gun, which the
donor ayers belonged to and was
used by Napoleon | and has since
been treasured as an heirloom in
this gentleman's family. "Napol-
con- says the letter accompanying
the gift, "set all upon the destruc-
ton of Russia, yet got no turthur
than Moscow; you and your forces,
however, have done this trick and
know how to cut the BEARS claws
once and for all. TO you, there
fore, by right belongs this weapon,
whose erstwhile possessor would
have rejoiced had he been able to
witness the victories you have
gained in the present day."

A great many citizens in Union
City will be pleased to see the an
nouncement of Mayor Jno. T.
Walker as a candidate for re.elec-
ton to that Office next January.
This year will complete his third
term and the record he has made
is sufficient to cause the citizens to
rally to him stronger than ever
before. As presiding officer, his
services have been largely instru-
mental in .placing the city affairs
in healthy financial condition.
The complete record of this work
has appeared from time to time in
this paper. 1t is familiar to every
body. 1t seems to US that the
burden of this Office could not be
placed in better hands and that it
would be favor he is comforting
to serve again. The honors are
not in our opinion equal to the
trouble and worry of the Office,
and if such man as he can be
induced to serve us in that capaci-
ty there should be no jealousies
over the office. II is no sinecure.
On the other hand it carries great
responsibilities and the man who
is equal to them certainly deserves
an Endorsement Of re- election. Mr..
Walker has made a most excellent
Mayor indeed and we believe is
stronger to succeed himself than
ever before.

CONqREss ANp zee OANAL.

Inc president ) aVOWed purpose
in proposing an extra session Of
Congress in November is that
there may be enacted certain leg
islation bearing upon the construc-
ton of the Panama canal.
Does this mean that the great
interests which have been seeking
to divert the Presidents attention
from his campaign for railroad
reform have scored another vic
tory9
Ite.will be recalled that when
Congress adjourned without action
upon the Esch- Townsend bill, TO
which Mr.. Roosevelt gave his
sponsorship, he declared he would
at once convene the new Congress
in extra session. There was to be
no delay whatsoever. A date ear
ly in the spring was fixed by the
white house gossip, apparently
upon authority. Then the Repub-
lican leaders busted themselves, as
they so well know how to do, with
the result that the President an
nounced q postponement of his
extra session until the early fall,
the first of October being sched-
uled by the inspired prophets as
the date. After that another post
ponement "until after the cleo
tions"-and this despite the failure
of anybody to discover an election
of Importance in any State this
year.
However, the excuse served its
purpose.
All this time the necessity for
early action upon railroad legisla-
ton was being held up as the raj
son d'etre for the proposed extra
session, whenever it might be
held.
AT the time the Presidential ag-
itation against the railroads was
begun the impression was strong
in political circles at the national
capital that back of it might be
found the fine Italian hands of the
high protectionists, who sought to
head off Mr.. Roosevelt's declared
crusade for tariff reform. Can it
be that back of this talk of the ne
cessity for canal legislation there
can be found the diverting hands
of the great railroad interests,
which seek to prevent the enact
ment Of legislation giving to the
interstate commerce commission
the powers they should have9
1t looks a bit suspicious. For
there is absolutely no pressing
need for additional canal legisla-
ton. As things now stand, the
President has full power to push
forward the canal work; he is alb
solutely untrammeled. He has a
canal commission entirely to his
liking. He has at his command |
all the funds that can possibly be
needed. The situation could not
be better.
There is talk Of a necessity for
determining whether the proposed
canal shall be a sea-level or lock
canal. The less Congress has to
do in reaching a determination
upon this purely engineering point,
the better it will be for the success
of the enterprise. That is mat
ter for the engineering experts.
Perhaps in year or two, the work
will have reached a stage where
should be called upon to
determine, once and for all time,
whether the country wants sum-
NIT level canal which can be built
in the least possible time, and SO
as to be eventually
made into a sea.level canal without
in any way stopping traffic or
whether it is willing to commit it.

Mnla and His Habits.

In burrowing his tunnels the mole
seems to swim through the earth rath-
er than to dig his way. Although much
of the earth is never removed from the
runs, but is beaten hard into the walls
and floor of the tunnel, the creature finds
II more expeditions in busy times to
clear the runs Of loose earth. This he
does at a point where the run comes to
the surface by pushing the earth before
him with his fiat forehead and face.
Sometimes, where the earth binds easily.
he pushes out the mold In solid round
plugs, showing the exact dimensions OF
the orifice through which they have been
thrust. When the mole is hunting or
travelling underground he has no need
to throw up the earth. This is . subse-
ouent operation for the purpose Of clean
ing the runs for regular use.
