There is a novel form of rebellion

called passive strike" The Austrian
railroads are generally under the Gov
eminent. OF the 12,414 miles of rail-
way in the State 4,739 miles are owned
by the State, which also operates 2,55S
miles Of lines owned by companies. AS
is inevitably the case with Government
tai matters there is an endless compli-
cation Of red tape. The employees OF
the railroads take advantage of this
when they determine to strike, and
while ostentatiously doing their duties.
rake UP every possible regulation and
requirement which will embarrass the
transaction Of business and follow this
SO puntiliously that traffic is virtually
stopped. Every regulation that can
impede travel, annoy passengers and
retard business is carefully worked out
to the last letter. In Italy this process
worked as effectively as the most vio-
lent outbreaks with the accompanying
destruction Of property and shooting
down Of men, and the Austrian rail-
readers have similar hopes of success
It is a thoughtful illustration OF the
effect of Government ownership.

One Of the lessons of the recent cleo
tons Is the old one that corruption falls
at last by it's own rottenness. The late
Senator Matthew Quay, who was as as
tute q political manager as ever lived,
used to say that he would be satisfied
IL he got value for 33 per cent Of the
money that he spent In political organ
ization. The concurrence Of opinion lis
that probably not two per cent of the
money raised for the last election was
spent for proper campaign purposes.
The remainder was appropriated to
their own uses by the men around cam
paign headquarters, including a raft Of
roustabouts and hangers-on. This evil
has become so marked that New York
will probably lead off at the coming
session of the Legislature by strin-
gent corrupt-practices act to limit the
expenditure Of money in political cam
raigns. One suggestion Of this act is
that 1t shall limit strictly the money
that candidate may spend and make
him forfeit his aeat * he exceeds that
amount. 1t is said. for example, that
800 should be the utmost that a can
didate for the Assembly should be al-

sEA-LEvEL CANAL AT PANAMA.

1t comes fnose unexpectedly that the
Board of Cdnsulting Engineers of the
Isthmian CAna1 Commission have
agreed uponfa sea-level canal by a vote
of nine to 4our: 1t was known that
the American members of the Commits
sion generally favored lock canal Of
some form. because of its cheaper con-
struction aHa the less time it would
take to construct it and get it into op-
Grafton. It9Wa8 believed that some
plan would be adopted by which such
a canal could he constructed and af-
terward developed into a sea-level ca
nal with comparatively little loss Of the
labor and othef expenses. After a
study of the conditions at Panama the
engineers came to the conclusion that
the permanent advantages of a sea-
level canal will greatly outweigh the
length of time required for construction
and the greatly increased cost. They
put the period of time necessary at Is
years and the cost at $3.50, 100000. The
depth of the canal will be As feet with
a width of 100 feet on the bottom. 1t
will be necessary to construct a set of
two locks at the Pacific end to control
the heavy tides and a dam at Bahia to
control the Chagres River. The new
plan will also render useless much of
the work already done, by straighten-
ing the line Of the canal, placing the
Pacific and Atlantic entrances both
some two miles away from the present
locations SO as to make shorter trip
across the Isthmus. The Board had
before 1t quite large number Of al
tentative propositions and voted on
them successfully. The last one was
for a lock-and-dam canal on 30-foot
level which can be completed in IL
years at q cost Of something more than
$200, 100000. The matter now goes to
the President, who can approve or dis
approve Of the recommendations, but
it is believed that he will hardly dare
to disapprove in the face Of such advice
by the most eminent engineers in the
world.
At the same time the verdict of the
engineers may be well open to ques-
ton. The amount estimated for the
cost and the length of time required is
open to suspicion OF being intended to
daunt the American people in this
great enterprise and to strengthen the
hands of the opposition, at the bottom
Of which are the great railroad inter-
ests To gain 15 years. time from any
competition by the canal is an object
we'll worth the utmost efforts Of the
Pacific railroads, and it carries the
completion of the work far beyond any
reasonable business plans. No projects
for freight and passenger traffic reach
as far into the future as Is years, be-
cause no one knows what may happen
in the meantime to change the current
of events 1T therefore looks as if the
decision of the engineers would not be
received as a finality by people gener-
ally. -.
