THE PANAMA CANAL.

Progress is reported on the work of digging the
interoceanic canal at Panama. Aside from the ac-
tua excavation that has been going on there has
been an army of carpenters, engineers, mechanics
and clerks employed in improving the sanitary
conditions of the canal zone, draining land, erecting
hotels and other needed buildings and building wa
ter and sewer systems to relieve the constant dau-
ger of an epidemic of tropical fever and to render
more comfortable the lives of those engaged on the
work 1t is reported that considerable reduction
of the working force has been made, and 1t is pre-
sumed that the necessary sanitary quarters have
been provided for those directly engaged in digging
the big ditch
While it is regrettable that should be
thrown out of employment especially at this time,
the progress indicated by the retirement of those
whose occupation was not at actual excavation IS
gratifying. 1t indicates that the facilities for COM
Portable existence have been supplied and that
much has been done to expedite the completion of
the canal. Notwithstanding the fact that far more
rapid progress in excavation than expected has
been made, the indications point now to prospect
of still more rapid work Sanitary conditions have
been so improved as to lessen Sickness which must
materially increase the efficiency of the diggers
The death rate too, has been reduced, and the
port of Colonel Gorgas says that this is notably true
among the negroes who heretofore seemed more
susceptible to tropical diseases than the white
TIL results of the sanitation of the zone are most
gratifying to all who have an abiding faith in
Uncle Sans methods of doing things.
On the whole the reports of progress on the
canal are very satisfying The preliminary work is
all done, and now there remains only the actual
digging, and this has very good start Several
years will be occupied before the canal is ready to
receive the locks and several more in putting the
finishing touches, but the time is coming when bat
tleships and freighters will not have to travel
around the South American continent in order to
go from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast 1t will,
of course, rob the navy of much spectacular enter
tainment in future, but that pleasure will be
foregone without regret when the weeks and months
saved on the trip are remembered.

LOCAL OPTION IN OHIO.

Ohio has had a township local option law for
some time, under which very large part of the
state has become dry territory Last week the
Legislature passed supplementary measure pro
viding for county local option, under which it is
confidently expected that between eighty and
eightyfive of the Lightweight counties of the state
Will be prohibition territory within two years This
new legislation in Ohio is supplementary to the
township local option law, and provision is made
that the smaller territory voting dry cannot be-
come wet" by the vote of the larger territory In
other words, a township which is under prohibition
rule by its vote cannot be made open territory
if, when the question is submitted to the vote of
the county the county votes in favor of maintain
ing saloons
Ohio is not freak state Her statesmen com
pare with the best in the country. And the people
of Ohio are blessed with intelligence which is quite
equal to the enlightenment of people of other
states. The rapid growth of the temperance cause
in Ohio is therefore indicative of the sentiment Of
just about the whole nation
The wave of local option and prohibtive Iegis
lation IS growing in the east it has already cap
tured the south, and is moving into the west few
more evidences of the viciousness of the saloon
bummers-the hold-up men, robbers and murderers
and the good people of Utah will come to realize
that there IS way to prevent those outrages. the
preparation Of which is Matched in the saloons 1t
Is not question for politicians to handle Thew
nave played with the evil profited by it so long
that no effective measures can be expected from
them 1t IS question for the people to decide and
FIRST step IS the securing of local option law
from the next legislature
Is Utah to continue bulwark of the liouor
business or IS it to join the good company of
states which have thrown the business overboardg
l he tax on tea which was the cause of the Boston
Lea Party was incompatible to the tax levied on the
American people by the saloon business. That the
people OF Utah will wake up to the enormity and
useessness of all the misery caused by liquor is in
dlcaed by the fact that the people of other states

explained it would not belong to the rellgion o
God.
The man of faith has the right to ask the unOe-
lever to explain, in his sense, the harmony 'n"'
exists between the Mosaic narrative and SCIENCE Ce
prophecies and the gospels, the institution anu
growth of Christianity, the person OF Christ 1oF
these are living, visible and tangible facts lact'
which have been rigidy tested IN the past "nlch
still survive and will yet remain when all the crit
icisms of the Twentieth century are lost or 1of-
gotten.
They cannot explain them; their existence is GER
tain. The point at issue is serious, namely IN
finite happiness, that the unbeliever should study
the question seriously and humbly, that he might
reach the goal of the doubling Thomas who hrst
proclaimed the divinity of Christ. My Lord ana
my God" Truth does not exist if there be no truth
in Christianity If Christianity cometh not from
God it destroys the very idea of God
