CANAL GOVERNMENT LEGAL
Attorney General Renders Opinion
UNFOLDING Administration:
BARRETT COWES PANAMA ARMY
Commission or lnnction of Congress No
Bar to Continuance OF Our Rule-Pres-
ident's Power Ample-Fifty Panama
Soldier, Threatened Mutiny Last No.
vcm b CT, But Mr.. Barrett Warned TIL.

Washington, D. c. Attorney-Gen.
eral Moody has rendered IN opinion
about the effect Of Congress failure
to legislate for the government of the
Panama Canal zone, under which the
Government will now go ahead just as
if there had been legislation. The fail
ure of Congress to take action was not
accidental, but deliberate. The House
was determined to clean out the old
Walker Canal Commission. 1t passed
a bill for that purpose, presented by
Representative Mann, Of the CONNER
cial Committee, and bearing the
stamp of that committees approval.
The influence Of some members Of
the commission blocked the bill in the
Senate, where a counter bill! was in
troduced. Whatever may have been
the reasons Of Congress for failing to
re-enact or complete its legislation
the proper presumption is that it was
Of the opinion that the power con-
ferred upon the President was ample
and continued until it should other
wise direct, and that it rested content
on the knowledge that until it should
otherwise direct the existing temper
airy government survived and went out
to perform its functions and duties as
already marked out.
1.-The Secretary of War on March 6,
1905. cabled to the Governor Of the
canal zone that the administration of
government there would continue as
before. The principle is that where q
territorial government under the au-
thority Of the United States, temper
airy and provisional in character. has
its origin in lawful authority, it con-
tinues to enforce the law and serve the
usual purposes of civilized institutions
until it is legally displaced This prin-
ciple arises ex-recessitate and means
that anarchy shall not follow because
there has been a legislative omission
or failure to provide q new and perma-
nent status.
"Thfs principle must be equally ap-
pIicable whether the, original rightful
authority was an exercise Of the war
power or whether it rested as here,
upon temporary and provisional laws
Of Congress-"

A HEAVY Fine.

! Under the Elkins law any railroad
company which pays rebates in any
form, or any shipper who accepts them.
Is liable to a fine of from $1,000 to
$4,000 upon conviction. 1t also pro-
hibits the carrying Of freight at less
than the published tariffs. The Inter-
state Commerce Commission is empow-
cred to detect and prosecute violators
Of this statute. President Knapp. OF
the commission, states that since this
law was passed rebate paying has
been as rare as forgery.

AnnuIs Many Contracts.

Albany. N. Y.-State officers who are

as well. If so it annuls millions of dol
lars worth of State contracts and
would particularly affect those just
signed for the construction of the
