The suggestion has been made to President Roosevelt and Secretary Taft that they turn over the work of actual construction of the Panama canal to the engineers of the army, and that appears to be their present idea. The designation of Major Goethals as successor to MT Stevens is not surprising, but 1t is understood that he is to build the canal. In all probability, if present tentative plans are carried into effect, several con- tractors, William J. Oliver probably among them, will be employed on the work under the practical direction of the government. Whether this scheme will work out or not remains yet to be seen, but there is no pres ent disposition to advertise for fur tner bids for doing the work by con- tract. Among those who have fol- lowed closely the canal operations, the big water way is regarded as a "hoodoo," which is likely to ruin more regulations than it will make. This is due to the fact, as above in- dicated, that the most powerful in- terests in the country are arrayed against the project and will go to any extent to defeat its completion.

Since 1900 the pension department of the Pennsylvania railroad has dis tributed a total of $2,493,S70.S6, which gives an average for the seven years of s356,26s.69. The number of employees retired and pensioned up to the present time is 3,031. In addition 1,O9O men have died. The average age of employees at the time of retirement was Fl years and 3 months, with an average length of service of thirty-four years and two months. Although the Pennsylvania railroad was not the first to inaugu- rate the pension system, its pension department has been so thoroughly well organized that it has come to be recognized by other railroads as the model of such systems. Everything is done according to we'll defined plan and no one is ever overlooked. The company's purpose is to provide for old and faithful employees upon their becoming mentally or physical ly unfit after thirty years of activity. Employment in the company's ser vice is generally accepted as of a per manent nature. and viewing the mat ter in this light the company makes provision so that those who have given the best years of their life to its interest can look forward to be taken care of in their old age.

FRIDAY, MARCH 1, 1907.

Five hundred workmen are rapidly finishing the magnificent buildings for housing the exhibits at the fair which opens in Dublin in May. Since the work began the fifty-two-acre site at Herbert Park has been completely transformed. Barren wastes have been changed into board walks, gras- sy lawns, flower beds and artificial lakes. The attractiveness of the site surrounded by hills and mountains, the beauty of the massive buildings, and the enthusiasm of the people promise to make the exhibition the greatest event of the kind that Ire land has ever known. James Shanks, the chief executive officer of the ex- hibition, estimates the attendance at from 3O,O00 to 50,0OO a day.

For many years the question of ''states rights" has been recurrently in the foreground. and it seems des- tined to figure prominently in the near future. The utterances of the president and of the secretary of
 state. the Japanese-Cal.fornia episode and other recent occurrences have tended to bring this most interesting and important subject before the people. That there has been a grad ual tendency toward eentralization is undeniable. and to the minds of those who philosophize on govern ment. the question of whether or not it is advisable to practically wipe out state lines and state government. is at least debatable. After all a goy- ernment is but a corporation on a large scale and centralization is the life-giver to corporations. The prop osition to elect senators by the people is but an evidence of the trend of popular thought Once. so far back that few. if any. living can remember it. the states elected the president. In form we continue that system with the result that a president has and can be elected against the will of the majority. But as the majority strive for the election of president by that majority. 30 they desire to ex- press their will in the selection of senators- It seems a reasonable prop osition that senators should be elect cd by the people of a state as repre- sentatives are by the inhabitants of

COURSES IN MECHANICAL WORK
ARE EXPECTED TO BE VERY
POPULAR AND THEY WILL BE
MADE EFFECTIVE.

Many plans to be matured when tina
local Y. NJ. c. A. is completed, are
now being prepared by local commit
tees. and are being thoroughly dis
cussed When the association opens
wide its doors to new members and'an
active campaign is waged for the bet
terment Of conditions OF the young
men and laboring men in this city,
there will be many novel features in
augurated.
One of these will be the use OF stere-
opticon lectures in the Richmond fac
tories during the noon periods. Twenty
minutes will be used each day. Tho
idea Of these lectures is to keep the en-
ployes in close touch with the lines OF
work they are doing and at the same
time explain new features which the
manufacturers have added to their
products and which the employees ara
not very well acquainted with. This
will be accomplished by the use OF the
blue print placed on lantern slides.
while the advantages OF all such Inn
provements will be fully explained.
Lectures on mechanics and other fea-
lures of shop labor VIII also be given
and although they will be short. much
good is expected to be derived from
them. A different Richmond shop
will be visited each day during the Sc
ries of lectures to the shop men. An
effort will be made to interest the man.

about their respective manufacturing
plants. that the stereopticon may be
used with ease during the lecture pc
RODS. IL is thought that the manu-
facturers will be only too glad to fur
nish such places. as much more can
be accomplished by such lectures than
the regular means of enlightening the
employees by bulletins. II lis aimed to
make the shop lectures entirely infor-
NAL in nature and all employees will be
welcomed by the lecturers.
There is a great deal of enthusiasm
among the members Of the
board of trustees and directors over
the many enlightening and beneficial
things that will be furnished the men,
bers of the association by the officers.
The courses in mechanical work are
expected to be very popular and al
though no great amount of money can
be placed on the Y. NJ. c. A. shops they
will be exceptionally good and COM

Since the establishment of the east
end sub-postal station the mail car
riers in that portion of the city state
that they seldom meet with request
to carry letter to the main office,
stamp and mail it for the parties writ
ing them. This practice was very
common in the east end before the sub
station was established, but has prac-
tically disappeared now. as people are
buying their stamps there. The car
riers are thankful, too, as much of
their valuable time in the office was
taken up by stamping and posting 9TH

started the game with a bunch of err

Wise connected with a three-bagger,
which saved the day, Raines bringing
in the winning score. Hare made two
sensational stops, connecting with hot
liners. Grimes was pounded heavily
but the consequences were averted by
Kokomo's fielding, in which Hall was
the shining lig,t. Hull, for the visit

BECOMING ANIMATED
Work of Erecting Tents Is Now

Today the chautauqua grounds pre-
sented a most animated appearance DIS
the work of erecting the tents is I'M

several of the resident tents were set
up and portion of the main tent was
erected. One new feature, which will
be appreciated by the patrons, will be
a series of steps at the east entrance
SO that access to the Glen will be ia
cilitated. More perfect drainage is
being provided for the grounds so that
lakes will not exist in the main audi
forum during rains, as has been the
case in previous seasons.
