busy IN an effort to keep sooners out of

have been quietly at work surveying
claims, sites for power plants, smelt-

evicted from the reservation, but they
only returned again when the soldiers
left
So after all Boysen has succeeded in
his plans almost as well as though he

Continued From Page Six.

though equal.S. of course, there will
be some little risk in connection with
the work. If the huge earth dam now
contemplated is thrown across from
one foothill to the other we will nave
what is practically low, broad
mountain ridge behind which will rise
the inland lake. This artificial noun
tain will probably show less seepage,
that is, will have greater restraining
capacity than the average natural
mountain range. The exact locality
of the locks at this dam-as at the
other dams-is now being determined.
In April next Secretary Taft, with
three of the ablest engineers Of the
country-Messrs. Noble, Stearns and
Ripley, will visit the isthmus and the
three engineers will make the final
and conclusive examinations as to the
exact site for each lock. Meanwhile
the work is going ahead without
break.
The CuIebra Cut.
The Culebra cut does not offer such
risks; that is, the damage liable to
occur from occasional land slips will
not represent what may be called ma
Tor disasters. The work will merely
call for intelligence, perseverance and
executive capacity. 1t is, however,
the work upon which most labor will
have to be spent. The dams will be

To Let Contracts,

After most careful consideration we
have decided to let out most of the
work by contract, if we can come to
satisfactory terms with the contract
ors. The whole work is Of kind
suited to the peculiar genius of our
neople: and our people have developed
the type of contractor best fitted to
grapple with it. 1t is of course much
better to do the work in large part
by contract than to do it all by the
provided it is possible on
the one hand to secure to the con-
make it worth while for responsible
contractors of the best kind to under
take the work; and provided on the
other hand it can be done on terms
which will not give an excessive prof1t

Grafton the plan already promulgated
nv the secretary of war was adopted.
This plan in its essential features was
drafted after careful and thorough
study and consideration, by the chief
engineer. Mr.. Stevens, VINO, while in
the employment Of Mr.. Hill, the presi-
dent of the Great Northern railroeu,
had personal experience Of this type

foreseen difficulties will arise. From
time to time seemingly we'll settled
plans will have to be changed. AT
present $4,000 men are engaged on
the task. After a while the number
will be doubled. In such a multitude
it is Inevitable that there should be
here and there a scoundrel. Very
many Of the poorer class Of laborers
lack the mental development to pro-
tect themselves against either the ras-
cality of others or their own folly.
and it is not possible for human wis
dom to devise a plan by which they
can invariably be protected. In a
place which has been for ages a by
word for unhealthfulness. and with 80
large congregation Of strangers sud-
denly put down and set to hard work
there will now and then be outbreaks
Of disease. There will now and then
be shortcomings in administration;
there will be unlooked-for accidents to
delay the excavation of the cut or the
building of the dams AMI locks. Each
such incident will be entirely natural.
and, even though serious, no one Of
them will mean more than a little ex-
ira delay or trouble. Yet each, when
discovered by sensation mongers and
retailed to timid folk of little faith,
will serve as an excuse for the be-
lief that the whole work Is being bad
ly managed. Experiments will contin-
ually be tried in housing, in hygiene,
in street repairing, in dredging, and in
digging earth and rock. Now and
then an experiment will be a failure;
and among those who hear Of it, a GER
tain proportion Of doubling Thomases
will at once believe that the whole
work is failure. Doubtless here and
there some minor rascality will be I'M
covered; but as to this, have to say
that after the most painstaking in
quiry have been unable to find a sin
gle reputable person who had so much
as heard Of any serious accusations
affecting the honesty of the commits
sion or Of any responsible officer I'M
der it: I append a letter dealing with
the most serious charge, that Of the
ownership Of lots in Colon; the charge
was not advanced by a reputable man.
and is utterly baseless. 1t is not too
much to say that the whole atmos-
phere Of the commission breathes
honesty as it breathes efficiency and
energy. Above all, the work has been
kept absolutely clear Of politics. I
have never heard even a suggestion
of spoils politics in connection with

BroiIs the Knockers.

I have investigated every complaint
brought to me for which there seemed
to be any shadow of foundation. In
two or three cases, all of which 1
message, I came to the conclusion
that there was foundation for the COM
plant, and that the methods of the
commission in the respect complained
of could be bettered. In the other in
stances the complaints proved absO-
lutely baseless, save in two or three
instances where they referred to mis-
takes which the commission had al
ready itself found out and corrected.
So much for honest criticism. There
remains an immense amount Of reck-
less SANDER as mas ever been pub
lished. Where the slanderers are Of
foreign origin 1 have no concern with
them. Where they are Americans, I
feel for them the heartiest contempt
and Indignation; because, in a spirit
of wanton dishonesty and malice, they
are trying to interfere with, and ham
per the execution of, the greatest work
of the kind ever attempted, and are
seeking to bring to naught the efforts
Of their countrymen to put to the
credit of America one of the giant
feats of the ages. The outrageous
accusations Of these slanderers con-
stitute a gross libel upon a body of
public servants VINO, for trained intel
ligence, expert ability, high character
and devotion to duty, have never been
excelled anywhere. There is not a
man among those directing the work
on the Isthmus who has obtained his
position on any other basis than merit
alone. and not one who has used his
position in any way for his own per-
sonal or pecuniary advantage.

often "a necessary method, but by itself

power, so conferred as to make, it's deS
cisions take effect at once, subject only
to such action by the court as is de-
manded by the constitution. -
This would seem to place the president
in line with the brand of review which
restricts the court to an inquiry wheth-
er the rates fixed by the commission are
confscatory.
At the beginning of the debate, Sen

gion of discretion between rates which
were unreasonably high and those
which were So low as to become con-
fiscatory. The final word upon the sub
