fool the public by throwing for it such votes as

1t is true that some Republican Senators de-

SUPPLIES FOX THE CANAL

The Isthmian Canal Commission has Just de
cided one Of the most important Industrial and
economic questions that have come or will
come before II. 1t is that relating to the pur-
chase of machinery. vessels and general sup
plies for the great work in hand. Briefly. the
decision is that such things shall he purchased
wherever they can be most advantageGuSly Sc
cured whether III the United States or in for
eign lands. We have no doubt that this de-
cision will be criticised unfavorably by a few
chiefly by some whose expectations are not
altogether DISTINGUISHED We have no doubt
either, that 1t will be cordially approved by the
best judgment Of the American nation.
There appears 10 be really no considerable
argument against such a system Of purchase
The principle of the protective tariff-in fidel-
ity 10 which we yield precedence to none-can-
not be effectively invoked against 1t. for the
reason that protection is intended TO preserve
the home market for the home producer, and
the Panama Canal is not home market The
canal zone is not part of the United States
and the canal which are constructing there
is not TO be a domestic institution. such as, let
lis say, the Erie Canal or one Of the PACING
railroads. The canal will be owned by this
country. and Will be operated and controlled
by this country We trust that in time il will
also be used by this country more than by any
other But, nevertheless, it will be in a for
eign land and il will be- by the most sacred
guarantees, open impartially for international
and universal use. We cannot see, then. that
il is properly 10 be regarded under the rule
OF the protective system
There are on the other hand, strong argu-
rnents in favor Of precisely such a system as
that which has been adopted by the commits
sion 1t is on all hands agreed that-proYlueo
