Is now progressing. The organization of the
forces on the isthmus, they say, is excel

nounces his satisfaction. Mr. Stevens is
said to believe that he can now terminate
his connection with this great enterprise
without in any way 5eopardizing its sue
cess.
For several weeks 1t has been rumored
here that Mr.. Stevens was dissatisfied with
the plan Of letting the canal work out by
contract, but as explained by a member
of the cabinet Mr.. Stevens really proposed
to the President the adoption Of that meth
cd of constructing the canal One of the
reasons alleged by the President for aban-
doning the project was that its author was
about to withdraw from all connection with
the canal work.

The probability Is that the administration
may determine to give out Network to be
done at the isthmus under contract under

The Facts About Aladdin.

Alexis Alladln, member OF the recent
Russian duma. who Is now In the United
States, is being advertised as 1.-THE
father of the Russian revolution" and as
having been expelled. from the duma be-
cause of his utterances in behalf of his
peasants. I do not believe that Mr.. Al
ladin has authorized any such misrepre-
sentation. for he was not only not the
father of the Russian revolution but he
did not come into active service OF the
cause untn very. recently. Alladin Is the
son of a mechanic In central Russia. He
worked his way through the schools and
entered the university. where he remained
not quite a gear before he was accused OF
revolutionary sentiments, and fed from the
country to avoid arrest. He went to Eng
land, where he lived for six years and
learned the trade OF q machinist. In Oc-
tober. 1906. when the famous conciliatory
edict OF Nicholas III was issued, Alladin
returned to his native place. became q
candidate for the duma and was elected.
He was selected a. the spokesman for
what was called ''the party OF t0il'-a COM
binatiou OF peasants. labor ref0rmers and

a Last Word on The r. F. d. Snnb-
Mr. LindSav's InSuZt To
The GObeYnOy.

When one has been true to his people,
through storm and persecution; when he has
overcome opposition and ridicule, and done a
good work for the masses-a work which car
ries it's blessings daily to millions of humble
country homes-is it strange that he should
feel hurt and wronged when credit is denied
him?
For the first time, the National Convention
of R. F. D. carriers was held, few weeks ago.
in Atlanta.
AS token of their regard for Senator Clay
who has been most helpful in extending the
R. F. D. system, souvenir was presented to
him by the convention with appropriate
speeches of presentation and acceptance.
For reasons satisfactory to himself the Pres
ident of the Carriers Association also invited
Congressman Livingston, Hon. Clark Howell,
Hon. R. F. Duckworth and perhaps others.
They attended and made speeches.
In his letter to Watson, Mr.. Lindsay gives

ernmcnt within the next few years unless these
greedy corporations change their tactics and
obey the law as individuals have to obey it.
Following the financial panic is the announce
ment that President Roosevelt is being urged
by the financial interests to call an extra sess-
ion Of Congress to deal with the present fnan-
cial situation.
The fnanciers seem to be in such straits that
they have even agreed not to>oppose the Pres
ident's financial policies if he will have Con-
gress give them relief
No law that Congress can pass will prevent,
in the future, such condition as has existed
for the past few days. until Government money
takes the place of national bank notes.
Senator Dolliver, of Iowa, is now in Texas
studying the Texas rate laws, and announces
that new rate bill will be introduced at the
coming session of congress.
1t is claimed that the measure will contem-
plate Federal control of all the railroad sys-
TENS in the country by a uniform law regu-
lating their stock and bond issues and will aim
to curb such stock transactions as those recent
ly manipulated by E. H. Hartman
Such law will undoubtedly be step in the
right direction, but there will then be long
way to travel before the people get the relief
for which they are clamoring.
