line of the watsonville Transportation
Company undoubtedly mean business.
The road will run from Monterey TO
Salinas and from there through San

and on to Hollister and Fresno by the
most practicable route.
Several surveys have been made as
far as Salinas, and the selection of a
line to that point will be easy. but
thence 10 San Miguel Canyon ii is diff
ferent- 1t is probable that several
lines will be run before a permanent
location is made.
Just how far the main line will miss
Watsonville ii is impossible to say at
this time. as the most practicable cable
line between Salinas and the San
Miguel Canyon will be adopted. But
the present plan is to have a junction
at or near San Juan and run through"
trains west TO Monterey and east from
that point. while all the locals" be-
tween Fresno and the coast will be
started from or headed for Watson
Vile.
ern Railway Company is but con
structive company for the Santa Fe
system there is no longer any doubt,
and this is regarded as good news for

WASHINGTON March 2.-Senator
Tillman introduced a resolution today
calling upon the President for all the
papers relating to the recent agitation
of the question of having the Panama
canal built by contract, and In support
of the resolution said that Contractor
Oliver had complied With all the re-
quirements and that his bid had been
rejected after a delay of a month or
more Tillman expressed dissatisfac-
tion with the course of the canal man
agement and said that his suspicious
led him to believe that the intention
had been to compel oliver ITO let in
some OF his competitors who were too
greedy in their bids"
Senators Hopkins and Lodge made
objection to the present consideration
of the resolution and under the rules
of the Senate 1t went over until an
other day In the course of the discuss
sion Senator Carmack said that Oliver
had spent from $4,000 to $4,000 of his
own money in complying with the re-
quirements of the administration.
In his speech supporting the resolu-
ton Tillman said that the whole coun-
try wanted the canal constructed with

tinued. The designations of Engineer

When the Railroad Rate bill was hang
| ing in the balance, with many Of the most
influential Republicans fighting it with all
their might it was the Democrats who
turned the scales and insured its passage.
But the Republicans got together on a
harmony basis that shut out the Democrats
entirely, and the President and the bitterest
opponents of the bill joined their voices in
proclaiming that the Republican party did
it:
So with the Meat Inspection bill.
So with the Pure Food bill.
So with all the other reform" measures.
The Democratic donkey has been in the
thick of the fight, he has borne the heat
and burden Of the day and assured the
victory. But when the Roosevelt band
plays 'see, the Conquering Hero Comes p
it is the Republican elephant marching at
the head of the procession.
In the matter of the discharge of the
negro troops it was the Democrats who
forced the partial Endorsement of President
Roosevelt. But at the last moment the
Republicans, to save the party's face, got
together and agreed on a compromise that
gave all the credit to the Republicans.
The Democrats in Congress do lot of
good things, but the Republicans generally
manage to compromise them out of the
credit for them.
