its contract. When this was done the president appointed Mir Bristow a special commissioner to investigate the claims of the Pacific Steamship com pany and Mir Bristow's report practi- cally substantiates the finding or a congressional committee which found, in 1S93 that the transcontinental rail way pool was paying the Panama rail- road s9C0,000 year for the privilege of dictating rates via the isthmus, so that the extortionate rates charged for freight and passengers across the con- tinent would not suffer from competi- tion. Mir Bristow further finds that the Pacific Mail Steamship company, which has doubtless also benefited by payments from the railroads. has never made any effort to develop its crm merce on the pacific coast, although there is ample room for so doing. Ac- cordingly, Mir Bristow recommends that the transportation of freight and passengers between Panama and Colon and the United States be thrown open to the competition of the ships of the world; that. if the Pacific Mail Steam ship company refuses to develop it's line on the pacific coast and serve points other than San Francisco. an ef- fort be made to induce some other steamship company to establish ne of ships between the pacific coast and Panama: that an effort be made to 1n- duce reliable company to establish line of vessels between Colon and the gulf ports of the United States; and. if this cannot be done. the Panama railroad itself establish such line. All this will prove as gall and wormwood to the transcontinental railroads which will inevitably bring into action their powerful lobby to induce con eress to enact legislation which will render it impossible for the canal commission to carry into effect MT Bristow's recommendations. which recommendations if observed would prove of the utmost value to consumers and shippers thoroughout the entire country.

The moral tone of Hot Springs Ark sometimes called the American Monte Carlo. is a subject with which Secre- tarv of the Interior Ethan Allen Hitch cock is now wrestling. says one writer Just how to bring about admittedly needed reforms is a problem difficult of solution. as the gambling offenses are not committed on the government reservation. The fact is that Hot Springs is fast becoming more famous as q gambling than a health resort. Secretary Hitchcock has received many complaints and appeals for interfer- ence looking 10 the betterment of con- ditions. The gambling resorts and other houses of questionable character are off the reservation proper and fed eral authority is accordingly limited. The secretary believes that much can be accomplished by amending the regu- latiOns governing the use Of the springs and the amended regulations will soon be promulgated. Politics is said t6 he al the bottom Of existing conditions and if changing the re-ula- tions does not avail the matter will be referred ro the attorney-generaI with a view 10 having the law enforced by the local authorities Reputable citi- zens of Hot Springs complain that their efforts at reform are frustrated bv politicians who play with the hands of the proprietors of the gambling resorts and The secretary believes that the dA- partment Of justice can. hr enlisring the aid of The state law officers. sup press the lawIess and purify The r-oIiti- cal atmosphere Of this famous health resort.

The large deficit in the treasury has again brought actively forward the question of increasing the revenue. and among other suggestions offered by the republican law makers is that of re- storing the stamp duties of the Span ish-American war times. Still an- other is to reduce expenditures until the two extremes meet in friendly en- brace once more. The government fis- cal year ended on June 30. and the treasury deficit amounted to S24. 800 000. instead of the S1S,0O0.G00 esti- mated by Secretary Shaw. Secretary Shaw has publicly announced that he is not worrying about the deficit. Is it not high time for the president to secure a secretary Of the treasury who will worry about it?
