An Unavailable Applicant.

The construction of the Panama
canal, involving the solution of many
problems in engineering, is difficult
physical undertaking, but still more
difficult task will be to manage the
details OF the work and disburse the
millions of money required in such
a way that no scandal shall attach to
the great water way when completed.
The personal integrity of the pres
ident can not enter into the question,
for that is above suspicion, and he has
shown determination to intrust the
work of construction only to someone
like himself who is doer and who
will render faithful report of stew
ardship
For the foregoing reasons there is
no apparent likelihood that the pres
ident will accept the offer of Mr..
PHILIPPE BunauVarilla, who has ten
dered his services to the president in
building the canal The reasons Civ
en- by the late minister from Panama
why he could render valuable assis-
tance to the canal commission con-
stitute the best reasons why should
have no connection whatever with the
construction of the great water way.
His reasons are that he was associ-
ated with DeLesseps, that he is famil-
lar with the situation on the isthmus
and that as civil engineer he has
decided opinions regarding the prob
lens to be solved.
The De Lesseps company ended in
financial ruin, disgrace and one of the
most gigantic scandals in history. The
management was rotten to the core,
and the fact that some of the princi-
pals were put in jail was small sat-
isfaction to the working classes of
France, among them hundreds of poor
washerwomen, whose small savings
were dissipated through criminal mis-
management.
Mr.. Bunau-V -Varilla's more recent
COnneCtlOn WITH the L 1dndnd Cdudl,
however, is of still more interest and
Importance He has been generally
accused by the public press of having
fomented the revolution in Panama
which enabled him to negotiate the
treaty with Secretary Hay whereby
the United States acquired a be-
smirched title to the canal zone. His
connection with Panama canal af-
fairs has been too odoriferous to
make it desirable to renew the con-
nection, especially in view of the fact
that the president has done every
thing possible in the way OF amend
and reparation to cleanse the title.
Doubtless Mr.. Bunau-Varilla's gen.
ius for intrigue will eventually OBJ
tain him job of work where his Pc
culiar talents are in demand, but there
is no apparent need of such services
under the present policy of the Roose-
velt administration.

ANTI-DysPEPsIA CRUSADE.
Domestic Science Committee Will
Educate Young Women.

Fort Wayne, Ind, March ss-The
domestic science committee of the
Women's Club League, of which Mrs.
0. N. Guldlin is chairman, has re-
ceived the manual training high
school cookery for the use of classes
in cooking for wives and young wom-
en- home makers,
There were SO many applicants that
one class will meet Tuesday night
and one Saturday night and the on
slaught on dyspepsia, the result of
bad cooking, will begin tomorrow
night under professional teachers.
Not content with economics of this
description, the committee has organ
lied the same rank of women into SER
wing classes, wherein they will learn
to cut and fit garments for themsel-
YES and children. The school board
has rendered the free use of the bull
ding to the Women's Club League,
which is composed of 10 organiza-
tions.

Japan's High Credit.

One particular clause in the Globe
Democrats dispatch telling about the
readiness of the American investors
to subscribe to the Japanese $15O,ooo,-
900 loan, deserves special mention.
That is the part which notes the Gag
erness of the French to participate.
Half of the loan, or about SIS 5000, 900,
has been allotted to the United States
and the other half is divided between
England and Germany. The Ameri-
can life insurance companies are ex-
pected to take about $15,000,000, of
our share, leaving the rest to general
subscription. A large number of Of
fers for the American portion of the
loan are coming from France, al
though no overtures were made TO
that country from New York for sub
scriptions.
Frances eagerness to share IN the
Japanese loan, while she has refused
that of Russia, or has been very slow
about. accepting it,. is significant.
Russia has three times Japan's popu-
lation and five times Japan's natural
resources Her wealth, though small
for her area and inhabitants, is far
larger than Japan's. Moreover,
though Japan will come out the VIC
tor in the present conflict, she can
not invade Russia Even if she meets
and defeats the big Russian fleet
which is still afioat, she will not be
able to get any military foothold in
Russia proper. Yet Japan's credit
stands much higher than Russia's in
the worlds money markets.
This is large fact, and Frances
action in the Japanese loan Gals the
worlds attention to it in an impress
sive way. France is Russia's ally.
Her government has declared that the
Russian alliance will be maintained.
Yet her citizens see that Russia is
to be worsted in the present conflict.
They see, moreover, that her inter-
nal troubles are likely to make her
politics for the next few years dis
turbed. Loans for large amounts arc
pretty sure to be asked by Russia
even after the war ends, for tn dis
location of her industries and finances
which has been caused by the war
with Japan will have effects which
will last for many years. The news
that France is heavy bidder in New
York for the SIS 100000 of the Jap>
anese war loan which is assigned to
the United States will arouse good
deal of serious attention in St. Peters
burg.

Important Meeting at the M. E.
Church Last Night.

The official board met Tuesday eve
at the church in large numbers. The
church and parsonage were the SUBJ
jects of deepest consideration. 1t
was decided not to repair the old
church, but to use it as it is for a
short while and then replace it with a
modern $4,000 plant. Then the ques-
ton of a new parsonage was intro
duced by the pastor. 1t was decided
to get new and better parsonage for
the minister's family at once. A COM
mittee consisting of c. w. Metsker,
C. T. Mattingly and Samuel Schlosser
was appointed to secure the new par
sonage The Methodist church has
the largest membership and the most
wealth of any church in the city, and
with united membership of 400, it
can and will carry out the policy of
the Official Board. We congratulate
this church upon its victories.

Indians Not all Gone.

In scraping down the hill last week
on the J. R. Vinnedge place, better
known as the old Brewery property,
quite number of Indian skulls were
unearthed One of the skulls was in
good condition but the other was
nearly all decayed The best speci-
men is in the hands of David Field S
youngest son. No relics were found
except small particles of wood which
seemed to be cherry and were no
doubt part of the rude frame that an
swered for the Indian casket. The
bulk of the bones were reburied.
