Complaint is made by the chamber OF
commerce of the Pacific coast ports of
the United States that the Pacific Mail
Steamship company is controlled by the
transcontinental railroads, and that 1t is
operated so as TO discourage commerce
via Panama between Atlantic and Pa
cific ports of the United States.
The chamber of commerce of San Diego
states that about S75 carloads of the
products of that vicinity are shipped
annually, and that large part of this
freight could be successfully forwarded
via Panama, at rates lower than those
charged by the transcontinental roads,
but that none of this commerce Is
moved by way of the sthmus because the
Pacific Mail refuses to call at that port
Los Angeles chamber of commerce says
that there originate large amounts of
freight In the vicinity of that city for
shipment, and that large quantities are

Policy for Management.

The question as to what policy should
be pursued by the government in the man
agement of the railroad should be consid-
cred from three points of view
/. Should the railroad be closed to COM
merce and be used as a construction road
for canal work?
. should It be used as construction
and commercial road. making commerce
Incidental and secondary to canal work.
8. Should it. be used not only as con-
struction road, but also as commercial
line to its fullest capacity
Referring to the first proposition this
railroad has been operated as CONNER
clay line for fifty years. 1t has served as
a link connecting the commerce OF rhe
two oceans. and during that time hun
dreds of thousands of tons of merchan-
disc have been annually transported
across the isthmus. and 1t would be of
great injury to the commerce, not only
of our country. but of Central and South
America and of Europe. TO close this
route. and | do not think such, policy
should be given consideration
The second proposition-namely, that It's
commercial status be maintained, ana that
commerce be handled only incidentally
has many adherents. They state tnat 1t
is not the business of the United states
government to engage in a commerciai en-
terpr1Se or 10 tonuuSt q si"'fV
company. but that since the government
came into possession of this road as an

continue its commercial status with the
present facilities but that the govern
ment should not in any way enlarge them
The third proposition, that since the gov
eminent Is required to operate this road
as a commercial line. IT ought to improve
its facilities so as to make IT OF inc
greatest possible benefit to commerce, Is
the one most generally approved by the
shipping public.
The relation that the Panama railroad

consisting in greater cost of construction
and repairs of steamers, higher wages
for the crew, and larger salaries for the
officers. He says that the Mail
Steamship company pays its C.. aims on
the Panama line $500 per month, while
the commanders of English ships in
the same waters are paid $3.50; those OF
the Chilean steamers $112. and those un-
der the German flag s125. He adds that
there is a greater difference In the pay
of subordinate officers and seamen, and
that the seamen of American ships are
paid $50 per month, while those of Eng
lish ships are paid 81 65; of Chilean Sc &c.
and of German $l6.25. He contends. that
under similar conditions, the American
ship cannot. therefore compete with for
egn vessels He therefore asks that only
American ships be given through bills
of lading north of Panama.
/ would be glad to see American ships
favored when it can consistently be
done, but the treaty by which the canal
Is constructed provides that there shall
be no discrimination against the vessels
of any nation in respect to conditions
or charges on traffic or otherwise, and,
upon the theory that the railroad is
performing the functions of canal, in
so far as a railroad can do so. 1t does not
appear practicable to show any discrim-
nation in favor of American ships at the
ports of Colon and Panama.
Pacific Coast Schedule.
1t is very important that a schedule
steamship service be maintained between
the Pacific coast ports of the United
States and Panama. The government is
interested in having ample facilities for
the transportation of mails, passengers
and supplies from the Pacific coast to
the isthmus during the period of canal
construction.

The delegates from this city who at.

Knights of Pythias, held at Centralia

/ The object of these district conventions
Is to enthuse the embership of the

the best work done by either lodges or
individuals. The work done at this
gathering is reported as being far superb.

OF the fact that it carried off most of the
prizes offered

on Monday evening, the local lodge ten.
dered the visitors a banquet at the Hotel
Centralia, and on Tuesday evening the
Uniform Rank of Centralia, containing
40 members, gave an exhibition drill,

The next district convention is to be
held at Elma, next September, and
already plans are being,arranged to make

is received. All outgoing mails'are thrown
at the Office up to as late moment as
the departure of the trains will allow.
The mail that cannot be made up for the
route packages is pouched and sent to
the railway postal cars and there thrown
by the railway postal clerks. The same
system, only far more intricate, prevails
in the postofflce as in the postal railway
cars in the matter of throwing mail The
main point always to be held in view is
TO get the letter to its destination in the
quickest time possible. Hence a letter may
be routed half way across the state OF
Iowa to reach Missouri Valley or Sioux
City, preferable to waiting for the par
tcular train to that point, should the let
ter be deposited for mailing to late to
catch the first direct train. The letter may
have to be switched through half dozen
postal railway cars over as many different
lines to reach its destination by connect
ing lines. before it could have reached
there by the regular train. 1t is just such
little cases that are constantly coming up
in the big postofiices and require the ut
most care to meet the emergency. The
postal distributing clerk in the postofice
must be equally as accurate as the postal
railway clerk in throwing his mail. In
the big offices like the Omaha Office he
has less time and more mail to throw,
and aside from that he must keep host
of railway systems in his head, as we'll
as the locations OF a thousand postofices,
and must decide which train and what
line that ONCE is on and what combina-
ton Of trains will dispatch the mall most
