DIRECT SENATE ELECTIONS.

a partial check seems to have been given in
Alabama TO the practice OF divesting state leg
islgtures and Governors OF their constitutional
functions Of filling vacancies in the United
States Senate. The theory that Senators should
owe their titles to the people acting directly and
not to Intermediates indirectly expressing the
popular VIII, has been carried to great lengths
In recent years. In one respect Oregon has
gone furthest; for in that state a vote is taken
for United States Senator just as it is for
Governor or any other state officer, and candI-
dates for the Legislature are expected to pledge
themselves in advance TO support the success
fui nominee, whether he belongs TO their own
Certy or TO the opposition. But in Oregon the
-erdicf OF the people is asked only with view
to binding the Legislature. The Governor Is nor
restrained in his right to make ad interim an
pointments TO ill accidental vacancies. In Ala
hama, however, plan was devised for eIso
tying the Governors hands, provision being
made Tor the designation at state primary not
only OF Senator to fill prospective vacancy
put OF an alternate to serve in case the man
originally chosen should die. resign or fail IN
qualify.
The excuse given for this innovation p-as
plausible enough. The Alabama IeptsIa.uro
meets regularly only once in four years. and
Seihtorshlp elections must often be made far in
advance Senator Petuis's present term ends ON
March Q, 1909: but he was reelected last lam.
ary Tor new term ending March g. 1915 There
eng "iiis one state election and one state
primary every four years, 1t was Thought nd

THE COST OF THE CANAL.

Secretary COrtelyou's decision 10 postpone the
second issue of Panama Canal bonds reflects the
roseate prosperity which the Treasury is now
enjoying. The Treasury authorities have calcu-
lated that the cost of construction for the next
fiscal year can easily be met out of the surplus
now on hand and still to be accumulated. The
Treasury has at present an unwieldy balance
The surplus for the year 19O6-'07 now stands at
S74,253,OOO, and will increase by June 80 to over
$S0OOO,O0O. There is an available cash balance
of S261 .215OO0. About $30OO0,0OO now depos-
tied in national banks has been called IN TO be
used in the payment of the per cent bonds
which mature on July l next But after July
l an available cash balance Of nearly $24OO1O-
600 will remain and with another surplus for
1907-OS in sight the Secretary of the Treasury
feels justified in holding that the bonded in
debtedness Of the country should not be in
creased at this time for the purpose of paying
the cost Of current work on the isthmian water
way.
If the Treasury has much money to spare
possibly no great harm will result from putting
Il little more cash into the canal enterprise. Yet
ii should be clearly understood that this is only
a temporary eXpedent to reduce too abundant
Treasury credit. 1t was not the intention Of
Congress 10 saddle the cost of this great work.
of which the next generation is only to begin to
reap the benefit on the shoulders of the present
generation of taxpayers. Since 1903 the Treas
ury has put outright into the canal from its
current receipts hardly less than $1OO000O00.
Bonds have been issued for only S300O0O0O.
so that the expense OF cutting the waterway
has been rather unequally apportioned between
the present and the future. Winter before last
when Congress realized the great drain cur
rent resources caused by operations on the 18TH
mus, IL hastened TO authorize a first sale Of
bonds hoping thus to be rid of an embarrassing
factor in the creation OF deficits. But with the
enormous expansion of foreign trade and domes-
tic business deficits have disappeared. and the
Treasury's income is increasing S25,000,O00 10
S30.000o00 annually. 1t will be for Congress to
say what part Of this increase shall be diverted
10 canal construction. and thus made n gift to
the future, and what part shall be used for
projects which promise a more direct and more
immediate return to the actual payers OF the
taxes. Something can easily be given out of n
superabundance Of riches. But It would not be
fair 10 Overcharge the taxpayer OF to-day for a
national venture on which he can hardly hope
to live TO draw an actual dividend
New-York tribune., 1907-06-21

Germany is not implicated in any of these ar
rangements, and there is talk of her Isolation.
We doubt if she is worrying over it much Some
years ago there was simila" talk about Great
Britain's "isolation," which we were told had
been effected through the deliberate design of
other powers and would soon prove the ruin of
that kingdom. But as we remember it, Britons
actually exulted in what they themselves called
their splendid isolation" Now the scene is
changed. Great Britain is the centre of an ex-
ceptionally extensive and powerful alliance Of
powers, while Germany has only her old Triple
Alliance and her understanding, whatever it is,
with Russia But what of that? All these new
treaties, made and making, are conservative
rather than aggressive, reassuring rather than
menacng. They convey no threat to Germany
or to any other well disposed power. but are ad-
dtional guarantees of the general peace of the
world
