THE NEW CANAL COMMISSION

The trip Of President Roosevelt To
Panama Is already bearing fruit, as
he has at once taken steps to cast
aside the dead wood members of the
canal commission. The Presidents
plans call for material changes In
the commission, and he proposes to
have men on it TINT want to serve
as members OF this important body
for other reasons than the money
and patronage that Is In the job 1t
Is generally accepted fact that Mr..
Shonts will remain at the head
of the commission, but that he will
he aided by younger blood and will
have the assistance of men who are
willing and able to cope with the
many and gigantic obstacles which
are being frequently encountered.
AS the plans of the President arc
understood the new members of
the commission will be from among
the heads of the newly created de-
partmcnts, men who are In actual
touch with the work, and some of
whom are on tho ground. This Is
as II should be, and the Presidents
determination to have hustling
energetic commission will receive
the support Of the people. The canal
Is one of the Presidents fayoritc
hobbies, and he proposes to have
the work done In the quickest and
best manner possible. The country

an article entitled "Angllclzing
American Children" which appear
ed in the issue OF the Gaelic Amer.
lean for November 10. In this arti-
Gle 1t Is stated that the national
nursery rhymes OF England are
taught to New York school children,
and that books containing those
rhymes are In circulation In the pub
lice schools. If the facts are ap
suited, there Ii something rad
ically unwholesome and un.American
IN the management OF our city
schools. Not alone are England's
nursery rhymes unlntercsting to
American children. but also such
reading dlverts their minds from
their own country and from things
American"
OF course, we are not IN position
to speak authoritatively concerning
the conduct of the public schools
In the metropolis, but we have seen
no indications Of the AngllcIZing of
The schools In this section OF tho
country In fact, II usually Is true
that when youth finishes about the
fourth or fifth grade in one OF our
institutions of learning. he is ready
to shrug his shoulders, protrude his
upper lip and remark: I'VE gave
England warm breakfast and din
ner and have red-h0t supper walt
Ing for her whenever she gets ready
to come over after IT,"
We think, too. that Mr. Wilson
Is ogrcgiously mistaken when he as
sumes that children are not interest
cd in English nursery rhymes. There
Is no one on earth less bound down
by the limitations of narrow-minded
prejudice than the child and he had
just rs soon be amused with stories
OF Japanese life rs by tales OF those
who live in the next block. In fact,
purely imaginary happenings suit
him just rs well with his boundless
imagination and unrettered desire for
amusement. Anything Is grist that
comes to his mill and 1t take many
years OF training TO convince him
that he should not be amused by
this or that story because II happens
to be about n people who once upon
II time had the misfortune to be
whipped by American soldiers.

COAL AND "cosM.cp GRAVITY.

4 AS stated in the Daily Press of
4 yesterday morning, al official of the
United States Geological Survey Is
+ quoted rs saying that the coal sup
! ply OF the United States will last
Tor at least four or five thousand
( years, and then adding the some.
what unnecessary assurance that no
one now on earth need worry about
"a coal famine. This may be liter
ally true but from the point of view
OF the consumer OF ordinary means
at seems doubtful.
Certainly IL the retail pric9'of this
commodity increases during the
next thousand y ara aarapldly as
1t has In the past tsn, It will be
used as jewelry inN$ead Of fuel in
S2s06 r-ts -ngse19s IL. tsstimated that the
grand total of coal dug out OF tho
United States beds up to the year
1905 amounted to 5,97O,773,571 short
tons.
or this no less than 5,6S5SS35 GIG
tons have been produced since 1865
that is, in forty one years. So that
the annual production during this
entire period was nearly half as much
as all the coal mined before 1865.
The United States miner now digs
out every year about 100000, 900
tons more than the 1865 total.
A correspondent, noticing this cnor-
NOUS and steadily rising consumption
Of coal, has been communing with
himself as to the effect on the
steadiness OF the earth. He was first
worried for fear displacement
and destruction of this vast mass of
ballast every year would eventually
10 tlisarrange our orbital balance
that "cosmic gravity would lose
control OF the little speck OF the
universe on which VIC i've" and
that the earth would start off on a
\ mad career of dynamic revolution
and riot through tho stars" His stu
dies ovidently changed this fear into a
certainty, and he now urges an i'm.
mediate stoppage OF coal mining UNI
less some method counterbalancing
the loss can be devised.
II does not seem that such
Z .darstic action as this Will be
z necessary. The physicians and chem.
ists have Il theory, and 1t has served
pretty we'll as working hypoth.
esis to date, that matter Is indie
I structable, that you may change it
Into various forms but that you can
not destroy 1t. The burning OF the
coal therefore, changes its form, but
not by a grain the total weight of
carbon In the world. Further, the
REIMBURSEMENT of weights resulting
from the mining and the combustion
are SO infinitesimal compared to the
total weight OF the world which Is
placed by experts at $3.50, oOO, 100000
d 900 600 tons, it may, like the weight
OF the elephant in the Cambridge
problem, be neglected. The coal
removed from the earth in thou
sand years at the present rate Of
B mining would be of 10 more rel
4 alive consequence than the abstract
ion of a few buckets Of water from
ss Hampton Roads.

ATTACK TEXAS LAWS.

Railroad Rates of State Con-

fled here Monday in the United States
court by the Gulf Colorado & Santa
Fe railroad and International C Great
Western attacking the entire body OF
rates established by the railroad COM
mission of Texas since February %,
1890, which was the date on which the
compromise of the suits instituted by
the railroad companies In the latter
part Of 1898 became effective. The
suits are based upon the grounds that
the commissions rates have seriously
injured the roads in the matter Of re-
iucing their earnings both passenger
and freight and that TO submit to
future reductions would mean conhs-
cation of public property interests.
No preliminary Injunction is asked
but permanent one is to be sought
by the trial Of the suits.

TO POL|CYHOLDERS
The International Committee Issues
an Address Regarding Elec-
ton of Directors.
new LAW GIVES THEM POWER
Are Advised to Disregard Advice
and influence of Paid Agents
and Use Their Own
Judgment.

New York, July 10.-The Interna-
tional Policyholders Committee, or
ganized to overthrow the present man
agement of the New York Life Insur-
ance company and the Mutual Life In
surance company of New York, erect
ed a permanent organization at q
meeting here Monday and issued an
address which in part follows:
ITO the policyholders of the New
York Life Insurance company, rne
Mutual Life Insurance company:
1.-These two insurance companies
are mutual companies, that is to say
they are owned by their policyholders.
The enormous accumulated assets OF
over $9OO,OOO,0OO represent the prem
iums which you as policyholders have
paid.
"2,-The law requires that the
policyholders Of a mutual company
shall elect from among themselves
directors who shall be responsible to
all policyholders for the intelligent
and faithful management Of the COM
pany's affairs.
"3.-It gradually became a recog-
nized custom among the officers to Sc
cure through agents proxies made
out to the president or some other
officer of the company upon the deliv-
cry of the policy. In this way the
voting power was gradually transfer
red from the policyholders to few
of the executive officers centered IN
New York.
"4,-Thus It came about that the
control of these two companies was
gradually taken out Of the hands Of
the policyholders and came under the
absolute domination Of few execu'
tive officers. Out Of this system have
grown the extravagances and othel
abuses, some of the particulars Of
which were brought out under lega
pressure by the Armstrong investi'
eating committee.
"5.-At the last session Of the legis
lature of the state Of New York, tn
state which issued the charters o
these two companies, there was en-
acted a law which gives to policyhold
ers their actual voting rights. Tn
law strikes at the very root Of tn
evil. It cancels all previously issue'
proxies and provides that any prox!
given in advance Of October IS, 1906
shall be void. 1t fixes the date for tn
election Of directors. It gives to tn
policyholders the privilege Of nomi
Mating their own candidates and tn
right to vote by ballot as in ordinar.
elections and to record that vote b.
mail. We emphasize the fact tina
now Is the only opportunity for oh
tanning complete control Of your prop
erties at one election. as hereafter un
der the law only one-half the director
can be chosen in any one year.
"6.-To secure the benefit OF sue
a law It Is necessary that the 10000
Tor more polIcyholders should organiz
Into such working force as to secur
harmony Of action In the selection Q
candidates for directors.

FORCING BREWERIES OUT.
Campaign to Close the Joints in
Wyandotte County.
Mr.. TrIckett, Assistant Attorney
General, Had Through InjunctiOns
Tied Up Stock and Fixtures.

Kansas City, Kan, July 10.-The
Helm, Rochester and Imperial Brew
ing companies-members of the Kan
sas City Association of Brewers-have
given up the fight here and will sup
ply no more beer to the joints.
These companies, owning and con-
trolling about $50 joints in Kansas
City, Kan, Argentine and Rosedale,
through their representatives, have
agreed to move all of their fixtures
and stocks of liquor from the build
ings, owned or leased by them in
Wyandotte county and to stop deliv-
ering beer to the Joints" In all parts
of that county.
The representatives Of those COM
panies informed G. w. Trickett, as
sistant attorney general, Monday
morning that they were ready to quit
business and move everything out OF
the state.
On account of this agreement mo-
lions will be filed in court allowing
these companies to move their stocks
Of liquors and fixtures. Along with
the motions will be filed written agree
ments in court, signed by the brew
cry companies, the terms Of which
will forbid the delivery of beer to the
"joints" again. For each building
owned by the brewing companies a
bond of 81 900 will be required before
building and fixtures will be released.
Where the buildings are merely leased
the property owners will have to go
into court and furnish bonds before
the padlocks will be removed from
the doors.
