of that day the torch was applied to Il

TO GET AFTER !
THE COAL TRUST 4
Philadelphia Inquirer. 4
las 3 z q

It may be true that the ownership
Of coal interests by railroads in Penn
sylvania was acquired before the pres
ent Constitution, or that the roads are
run under charters issued before that
time. 1t may be true, furthermore,
that the Attorney General of the state
cannot proceed upon present infOrma-
ton. Nevertheless, there most GER
tainly is a way to curb roads that
make monOpolistic combinations in
restraint of trade. The present leg
islature. contracted as to the scope
of legislation possible for it to con-
slider, may not be equal to the task
Of finding it, but another legislature
is coming in one year, which will not
be restricted. Its field will be bound
less. Much will be expected Of it.
But while Pennsylvania may not
be able just yet to get at the root of
the evil Of coal monopoly, there is
still the congress Of the United States
which is. The Interstate Commerce
Committee has powers specially CIV
en- it. The Senate resolution distinct
~ commands the Commission to make
a thorough investigation Of the rela-
tiOns between the railroads and the
mines, and the law is very plain on
the subject if determinations and the
restraint Of trade.
The Northern Securities case has
not been forgotten. There was law
that reached that matter. The Beef
Trust is now suffering on the grill Of
careful inquiry. If there is law to
reach the Northern Securities and the
Beef Trust, there is certainly no rea-
son why the Coal Trust should be
exempt.
Monopoly must yield to government
tai supervision or, as Senator Lodge
truly says, government ownership will
be the next step. The railroads Of
the European continent are very
largely public property. England has
not arrived at that point as yet, but
her cities are nearly all taking pos
session of public utilities, including
the supply of water, gas and electric
ity and the street railways. The
London County Council is determined
to gain control Of the surface lines,
some of which are in its hands.
We have not gone into public own.
ership of street railways and steam
roads in this country as yet, but we
shall follow Europe as surely as the
day comes when it is found impos.
sible for a successful Official supervi.
sion of interstate corporations to be
had.

The Panama Canal
Situation.

A new view Of the Panama canal
proposition is advanced by the Mem
mis- Commercisl-Appea which, while
supporting the scheme itself for the
reason that this country is committed
10 its construction, advances the argu-
ment that we do not need 70 secure
the trade Of the west coast Of South
America. The Commercial-Appeal
however, fails TO take into considera-
ton the vast amount Of trade that
would be secured from the Orient
when the canal is finished, or, for
that matter, any Of the many argu.I
ments that have been advanced in its
favor, save the single one Of south
American trz1e. The COmmerciai-Ap-
peal has the following TO say upon the
subject:
The Panama canal is still in the
midst of controversy, and already it
IS rather fertile source Of scandal.
We must confess that our interest in
IL is considerably lesSened, since we
have been convinced that We don't
need il as badly as We once thought
we did. There is at least 500, GOO, 900
worth Of trade on the east coast Of
South America that We ought TO get
but DON'T We don't need the canal
to get IT. We do not see that it would
be worth while to dig il for the trade
OF the insignificant countries on the
west coast. as our western ports al
ready have access to them. II is, of
course, possible that in the course
OF time, a considerable trade will be
developed through the canal. but il
viii be many years after the CON-
pletiOn Of the canal before it will pay.
We are. however. committed to the
canal, and must make the best Of it..
The condition of affairs on the 18th
mus Is not 50 bad as it might be. The
sanitation has been Unexpectedly sat
dsfactOry. The death rate has been
less than among the workers on the
Chicago drainage canal The resigna-
ton Of Mr.. Wallace as chief engineer
seems TO have opened the eyes OF the
government. and Mr. Stevens has had
a much better swing Possibly, too
he is a better man for the kind of
work required at Panama We be
lieve that the health problem and
the labor problem have been practical
ly solved. The engineering difficulties
however. remain.
These are as serious as ever. In
the path OF successful achievement
lies the BOhiO dam. Can il be built?
To build il a foundation must be dis
covered. and this has not yet been
found. We believe that American en-
cheering will solve this problem If ID
IS sOlvable; but the condition remains

The situation at Panama is much
Better than we expected, but the
chances are that twenty years will be
required 10 build the canal ana that
