1t may be doubted, then, whether
it will be practicable to remove" the
canal tolls altogether until the con-
cession for the canal expires, 61
years hence. Further reduction, how
ever, is probable. Indeed, it may be
regarded as certain with the increase
of commerce. In 1870 the tonnage
was only 436,6O9. and the rate was
$3.50 a ton. In 1906 it was 13,134,-
los, and the rate was $1.55 ton.
And trade with the east is advancing
by leaps and bounds.
The example is not to be disre-
garded by ourselves in the promotion
of our Panama canal. How the lat
ter will compare with Suez as high
way of trade and travel is problem
attic. Some have thought 1t will much
surpass Suez in volume of commerce,
while others, with equal assurance,
take the opposite view. But at least
the disappointment of prophecies of
failure at Suez may hearten us to look
for a like disappointment of like
prophecies at Panama, and the record
of marvellous success at Suez may
give ground for confident expectation
of success at Panama. with ever in
creasing traffic and decreasing tolls.

Finding Water in western Crook.


A driver on the Bend stage brought
the good news last Friday that water
had been struck in the well being
drilled at Redmond, at a depth of 400
feet. At that depth a strong flow of
water was encountered, and at last
account there was 80 feet of water
standing in the well, and this had
not been lowered after pumping con-
tinuously all day. From this 1t is evil
dent that the flow of water Is per-
manent, and that the supply is great
enough to supply the residents of
Redmond for all household purposes
The lack of supply of good, pure
drinking water has been great
handicap, and 1t is good news that
this difficulty has passed.
The success of the well drilling op-
erations in the Redmond section will
also greatly encourage those who are
trying to solve the water problem in
this section. The character of the
country is almost identical, as to its
geological formation, and there is no
reason why success should not also
crown the efforts of those who are
drilling in this locality, although it
may be necessary to go a 100 feet or
so deeper here.-Madras Pioneer.

This feeling has been growing
steadily for 10 years. Naturally,
Canada can never become a kingdom,
so there is dream in the working

SUEZ CANAL PAYS BETTER
THAN THE CHARTER ALLOWS.
Reduction in Tolls Have Been Made
in Order to Keep the Profits Inside
of 25 Per Cent-Few Supposed the
Venture Would Ever "Pay"-Food
for Speculation and Comparison by
All Interested in the Panama Canal
as Business Undertaking.

The irony of commerce is typified
at Suez. Years ago practical mer-
chants and economists were sure
the great canal would never be made
to pay profits, if even operating ex-
penses. Yet it has been necessary
more than once materially to reduce
the rate of tolls and thus to reduce
the receipts of the canal in order TO
keep the yearly net profits within the
maximum of 25 per cent permitted
by the charter. The latest of such re,
ductions was made, we believe, in
1905, the net profits of the preceding
year having amounted to 26.2 per
cent, and the latest redustion before
that had been in 1908. That another
reduction of perhaps a franc a ton
will have to be made a few years
hence to keep within the limit is con-
fidently expected
OF course, low as it is in compari-
son with the original rates, the present
tariff of francs rs centimes a tor

Step in the Fight Against New York
Sunday Closing.

NEW YORK. December ga new
move in the fight against Sunday closing
was made today when an eX-parte omni-
bus injunction was obtained from Justice
Greenbaum. in the supreme court, re-
straining the police from interfering
with the business of the Moving Picture
Association, whose members conduct
about 500 moving picture places in this
city. The injunction also restraints the
police from interfering with sacred or
educational lectures. whether illustrated
Or not.
The moving picture managers insist
they have right to conduct their shows,
whether an admission is charged or not.
They say that precedent was estab-
lished In California when a committee of
1000 brought similar action to the one
today to restrain the authorities from the
enforcement of a statute said to be I'M
constitutional. With all the moving. pic
ture places in operation tomorrow and
various amusements being given under
the new modified Sunday ordinance, as
interpreted by the police, the last sug-
gestion of blue" Sabbath in New York

Adler in addition was one of the city's

The Alps carried about S2J 900 worth OF

this cargo was consigned, has been asked
by its consul here to detain the shipment
and also to look for arms on the Alps

STABBED OVER HEART
EDWARD LUSBY TREATED FOR
ACCIDENTAL WOUND.

A quick run was made by the Emer-
gency Hospital ambulance last night
shortly after o'clock, when message
WAS received that man had been stabbed
over the heart.
Hes at his home, 134s Az street. the
person who sent the message stated, land
he's in a serious condition"
The surgeon in charge of the ambu-
lance found that Edward Lusby, lthog-
rapher was the patient 1t was stated
that he had been drinking and that he
had accidentally fallen upon knife he
had In his hand. When the hospital was
reached the surgeons dressed the wound
and wanted to send the patient to a
ward but he insisted that he was going
home. He was told that he would do
so at his own risk, as the wound was
nea~ the heart. His wife and a friend
of the patient went to the hospital and
took him home.

BALTIMORE, Nd, December 2s.-Mr.
Thomas Fitzgerald, general manager of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, today
resigned from that position. the resigna-
ton to take effect January I.
Late this evening President Murray of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad sent for
Mr.. Fitzgerald and conferred with him
about his resignation. He requested him
to reconsider his retirement from the
road and promised if he did SO he would
find for him a position that would be
congenial and thoroughly satisfactory.
Just what this position will be is not
known. but Fitzgerald stated after leav-
ing the presidents Office, that he had de-
cided to withdraw his resignation and re-
main with the Baltimore and Ohio. He
was also about to leave for Chicago when
sent for. He had had an offer from the
Great Northern.
Mr.. Fitzgerald would not talk about his
resignation toda-, but it is understood he
is leaving the road because of differences
with George l.. Potter. who. as third vice
president, is at the head of the operating
department.
His successor has not been named. but
1t was announced today that Mr.. Potter
will look after the duties of the general
manager along with his present Office.

SENATOR MALLoRY's DEATH.
Speculation as to Who Will Fill His
Committee Vacancies.

There is considerable speculation at the
Capitol as to what senators will be ap-
pointed to the vacancies on the important
committees on commerce and naval af-
fairs caused by the death last week of
Senator Mallory of Florida. These were
the only very important assignments held
by the late senator. although he was a
member of six other committees. Owing
TO the probable Importance of the work
OF the naval committee during this SEES
sion. in view of the recent happenings In
naval circles, this assignment is likely to
be much desired.
Senator Culberson of Texas the minor
ity leader. it Is conceded, can have either
OF these assignments If he wants them.
In view of the Importance that will prob
ably be attached to the work of the naval
committee it is thought to be likely
that Mr.. Culberson will take this assign
ment. There also is some reason to be-
ltcve. however. that he will go on the
committee on commerce instead, owing to
the fact that he has for some time been
greatly interested in the development OF
the gulf ports. Another senator who is
mentioned for the commerce vacancy is
Mr.. Bankhead, one of the new senators
from Alabama, who served for a number
OF years on the committee on interstate
and foreign commerce of the House.
