SaWmiII ALWAYS at Work,

At the big Goodyear sawmill, at Me
dix Run, in Elk county, logs are con-
sumed at an amazing rate. The plant
is equipped with a band mill and set
of gangs, and they are kept going
twenty-five hours a day. All the lum-
Der is handled by machinery from the
time it is lifted from the pond until it
is piled in the yard a few minutes
later. The process Of manufacture is
continuous and there is no halt be-
tween start and finish. When rum
ming at full speed the factory eats up
log in something less than forty sec

between the pond and the woods to
keep up the supply. Hemlock is the
only timber being cut.-Wellsboro

Secretary of War Taft regarding the
purchase of machinery and supplies for
the Panama Canal. Mr.. Taft has de-
cided that, in the absence Of legislation
by Congress on the subject, it is his
duty and that of the Canal Commission
to construct the canal on the most eco
nomical policy practicable and to that
end that the Commission must pur-
chase it's supplies and machinery in the
open market and that American bid
ders must make as low prices as the
Europeans if they are to secure the
Commission 5 trade. It is not expected,
of course, that much will be purchased
abroad, but the American manufac-
turers, especially the Steel Trust,
must make to the Commission the same
discount they now make to foreigners.
For instance the Steel Trust now sells
steel rails to foreigners for $40 ton
while the price within the United
States is 1913 ton.
There is a proportionately large diff
ference between the price American
ship builders have to pay for the steel
plates which compose the chief expense
in modern vessel construction and the
price paid by foreign shipyards. For
instance, the Canal Commission has
been seeking to buy two ships of about
5000 tons hurthern. Bids were re-
ceived from American and foreign
builders. The foreigners offered to
supply the ships for $4,000 while the
lowest bid from American ship builders
was 81, 400,O Under these circum-
stances, Secretary Taft instructed the
Commission to buy the foreign ships.
In discussing this matter it was held
by the President, as well as by Secre-
tary Taft and members of the Commits
sion, that no violation of the protective
principle was involved for the reason
that the entire aim of the protective
policy consisting of preserving the
American market for the American
manufacturer and producer; that in
this instance the United States had
embarked on great semi philanthro-
pic undertaking, wholly without the
United States territory and that it
would be only just to the whole people
on whom will devolve the great
expense of the canal to compel Ameri-
can manufacturers to grant to the
Canal Commission the same discounts
they are now granting to foreigners,
in fact would have cheerfully granted to
France had that country continued the
construction of the canal.
The ground on which Secretary Taft
based his recommendation TO the Pres
ident was slightly different. The Sec

it, without authority from Congress
and concluded by saying that it won q

The Senate Committee on Interstate

teresting information from President

Robbins reluctantly admitted to the
committee that his company possessed

thirty railroads, which had pledged
themselves not to use any other re-
frigerator cars, and that it enjoyed a
complete monopoly of the fruit and
produce business of the central and
south Atlantic states. Mr.. Robbins

Chicago Record Herald: The victory
of Governor LA TOILETTE in the Wis
consin senate in connection with his
railroad measure is important in more
than one sense. The unanimity with
which the bill was approved in an Or
iginally hostile senate at the end of a
long, stubborn and at times altogether
uncertain fight is surprising, especial
~ if we consider that the persistent
executive seems to have made few con-
cess:ons of real moment to the oppon-
ents of the legislation. Fresh from
his decisive victory, Mr.. LA TOILETTE
will be in a position to do good mission
airy work in the federal Senate for the
rate legislation advocated by the Presi-
dent and demanded by the interests OF
the nation.
As Attorney General MOODY has
said in his recent formal opinion, Con-
gress has the same power over inter-
state traffic that the state has over
transportation within its boundaries.
The denunciation of the EsCH- Town
SEND proposal, or similar legislation,
as Revolutionary and unheard of will
be more ridiculous than ever in view
of the action Of the legislature of SO
ssolid" and conservative a common
wealth as Wisconsin.
Without summarizing the LA Fol-
LETTE bill. it may be said that it is no
more general rate fixing measure"
than the s'EsCHTOWNsEND bill. It
leaves the initiative where it now is.
with the railroads. They can consult
the commercial conditions and needs of
state, establish rates as elastic and re-
sponsive as they please, provided the
elasticity does not take the form of dis
elimination against shippers, localities
and classes of goods, and make all
proper rules and regulations. II e
commission Will dCU as q OOarQ OF re-
view. 1t will hear complaints, set
aside rates adjudged to be either ex-
cessive or arbitrarily and uniustly dis
criminative, and-most important pro-
vision of all-proceed to fix. in such
cases, reasonable rates to take effect
within twenty days. All rates must be
filed and published, and no advance
can be made on an existing rate until
the commission has had ten DAYS to
pass on its propriety.
Any argument Of weight in favor of
a state rate bill like this applies. with
greater force, to a national rate bill.
1t is easier, through public opinion and
administrative bodies. to control rail
roads with reference to state rate
making than it is to control great sys-
TENS carrying on interstate traffic and
subject to no state control or competi-
ton worthy Of the name
