Friday, June is.

Washington, June 10. - When the
senate took up the Kittredge sea level
canal bill today, Senator Teller spoke
in support of that plan. He argued
that as this government had practically
prohibited the French government, and
later had declined to allow private cor.
porations to embark in the canal enter
prise, the United States can not afford
to hesitate on account of the cost in
money or time. The fact that sea
level canal would cost more than a
lock canal should not deter this country
from giving to the world the best pos
sible waterway between the oceans,
which must necessarily be on the tide
level. He expressed the opinion that il
sea level canal could be built for the
same price as lock canal, all the en-
giners would favor it as the best posi-
BILE canal. Hence he contepded that in
standing for lock canal Chief Engi-
neer Stevens discredits himself as an
engineer.
Washington, June l5.-The house to-
day by vote of ITO to SO voted in
favor of a lock canal across the Isthmus
of Panama, the amendment to the sun
dry civil bill TO this effect being pre-.
sented by Littauer, Of New York.
With members of congress sitting on
the short steps in the aisles of the
hou ,e, around the space in groups, the
galleries filled, and with Burton, of

WOULD GIVE ALL
AN EVEN CHANCE

Right Thinking and Right Living
was the subject of a splendid address
this morning before the Normal school
assembly by Edward F. Fowler of this
city.
Mr.. Fowler prefaced his remarks
with a reference to his audience, men
and women who are being trained, to
teach others right thinking and right
living.
He likened the observance of law
and order to pleasure game. To win
one must know the rules and regula-
tions or he is a failure. With life laws
are but the rules Of society, with the
exception that public Sentiment is be-
hind all laws.
1t is the duty Of the individuals in
society to strive for right opinion
that they may formulate right sent'-
ment. In order to do this 1--WE must
all get right information"
"To this end" urged the speaker.
1--WE should formulate such a public
opinion that every man. every woman,
boy and girl should be given a square
deal and an even chance in life."
