The delegate from Pennsylvania did
not think there was anything to fear,
He believed that these foreigners
would flock together and would not
stay on the farm. The delegate from
Vermont remarked that the great cor
porations took the first pick of immi-
grant labor and thought the farmer
should have an equal chance to do the
same. The outcome of the discussion
was that the report was amended SO
as not to encourage the importation Of
Chinese and other degenerate races.
1t all goes to show how widely differ
ent are the views of good men on a
subject of this character where their
interests are so diverse as in the east
and the far west, and, further, 1t shows
that the grange which covers the
whole country, needs wisdom in the
treatment of all such questions.

A Years Progress on the Panam a
Canal

The progress of work during the year
1907 on the Panama Canal was such as
to confirm the recent estimate of Secre-
tary Taft and Colonel Goethals that this
great work will be finished in six years
time. During the past twelvemonth
there was excavated along the line of the
canal total of 1874 ,095 cubic yards.
OF this amount, about II 100000 cubic
yards was removed by steam shovels,
and .over 100000 cubic yards by
dredges. The greatest results, of course,
were shown in the Culebra division, from
which alone over 100000 cubic yards
was taken out. According to figures
published in the Canal Record, when the
work was taken over by the Americans
from the French in May. 1904, it was
estimated that 81 100000 cubic yards
would have to be removed from the canal
prism in the Culebra division alone. At
the close of last year, of that total
amount, 1880, 900 cubic yards had been
excavated, leaving A 800, 900 cubic yards

of progress can be kept up, this work
should be completed in less than five
years. The grand total of all excavation
dry and wet, inside and outside the canal
prism, completed since we took control,
is %, 1885, cubic yards, and practical lily
the whole of this has been done since
January /, 1906, when the real work of
excavation began. The total work of
excavation done by the French du ring
their ten years of active operation was
81, 54S, 900 cubic yards. The amount of
excavation in given time has been
steadily rising, and this is the most en-
couraging feature of the work. For the
first time on record, the 1900. 900 cubic
yard limit of monthly excavation was
reached and, indeed, passed. This &C.
Cured in December of last year, VIII en-
1900, $50 cubic yards was removed. 1t
now seems certain that the Culebra cut
will not be the determining factor in the
time OF completion OF the canal, but
rather the vast and difficult work of
building the Gatun dams and looks

A REMARKABLE MESSAGE
Continued from Page o.

must be permitted to shroud from our
eyes the glorious future Of the nation
but because of this very fact it behooves
us never 10 swerve from our rpsolut. pur.
pose TO cut out wrongdoing and uphold
what is right.
DISTRESS DUE TO RICH MEN.
! do not for a moment believe that
the actions of this Administration have
brought on business distress; SO far as
this is due TO local and not world. wide
causes, and to the actions of any par
ticular individuals, it is due to the spec
ulative folly and fragrant dishonesty of
a few men of great wealth, who seek to
shield themselves from the effects of
their own wrongdoing by ascribing its
results to the actions of those who have
sought to put stop to the wrongdoing
but If it were true that to cut out rot
tenness from the body polite meant a
momentary check to an unhealthy SEEM
ing prosperity l should not for a mo-
ment hesitate to put the knife to the
corruption.
On behalf of all our people, on behalf
no less of the honest man of means
than of the honest man who earns each
days livelihood by that days sweat
OF his brow, it is nece ssary to insist
upon honesty in business and politics
alike, in all walks of life, in big things
and in little things; upon Just and fair
dealing as between man and man. Those
who demand this are striving for the
right in the spirit of Abraham Lincoln
when he said:
"tondly do we hope. fervently do we
pray: that this mighty scourge may
speedily pass away. Yet if God wills
that 1t continue until all the wealth piled
by the bondsmen's $50 years of unre-
Quilted toll shall be sunk, and until every
drop of blood drawn with the lash shall
be paid by another drawn with the sword
as was said 5000 years ago, so still it
must be said, "The judgments of the
Lord are true and righteous altogether"
" With malice toward none; with
charity for ALL with firmness in the
right, as God gives us to see the right
let us strive on to finish the work we are
in"
In the work we of this generation are
IN, there is, thanks be to the Almighty
no danger of bloodshed and no use for
the sword; but there is grave need of
those stern qualities shown alike by the
men of the North and the men of the
South in the dark days when each val
iantly battled for the light as it was
given each to see the light.
Their spirit should be our spirit, as we
strive to bring nearer the day when greed
and trlckery and cunning shall be tram
pied under feet by those whb fight for
the righteousness that exalteth a nation

Seattle Wash, Jan. 30.-The largest
herd of caribou ever seen in the wilds
of Alaska is now crossing the Yukon
river, working its way to the southwark
in search of forage.
Prof. Joseph B. Terryl, geologist. and
several men connected with the United
States survey in Alaska, have just sent
to the coast reports of the migration of
the animals.
The herd has been moving for 100 days
now and it is estimated that more than

and wendell their way into the noun

The New Jersey State Grange Meeting
at Atlantic City.

The annual meeting of the New Jer-

discussed, none with more animation
than the tax equalization question. A
resolution was presented calling on
state authority to abolish the tax
boards entirely. There was general
participation in the debate A mega
tive vote was carried by very narrow
margin. The general belief seems to
be that the difficulty is not with the
state law, but the inefiiciency of men
appointed to administer it,

GRANGE AND FARM LABOR.
Shall Foreigners Be Imported to Work
Our Farms?

No question that came before the re-
cent meeting of the national grange
was discussed with more general inter
est than that of the importation of for
eign laborers for our farms. 1t all
came out of the report of the commit
tee on agriculture, winch recommend
ed that foreign labor be employed on
our farms and immigration of foreign
laborers be encouraged. The delegate
from Delaware reported on the good
results from importing foreign labor
ers in that state. The delegate from
Oregon did not wish to have the
grange go on record as antagonizing
labor unions and deplored any attempt
to encourage foreign labor. He was
ably supported in his views by the
delegate from California, who said 1t
was better to let the crops rot on the
ground than to import Chinese and
other degenerate races to harvest them.
The delegate from West Virginia was
no less outspoken against the policy
Of employing foreigners on our farms.

stag.
Won BUELOW HIT AGAIN.

Berlin, Nov. 12-After bitterly scor-
ing the kaiser verbally for his 'indis-
Greet actions" in interfering with the
empires foreign policies the reichstag
voted down resolution to send an adj
dress to the emperor calling attention
to the danger of his majesty's personal
actions. ~-...-.-. ..
The decision not to rebuke the kali
ser, especially in regard to the London
Telegraph interview, which aroused
Europe. was made only after one of
the most bitter debates ever made in
the reichstag. Representatives of all
the leading parties took part, and
Chancellor Won Buelow was made to
bear the brunt of their attack.
Members of several of the groups re-
fused to accept the chancellor's expla-
nations with regard to the emperor's
interview in the London Daily Tele-
graph as satisfactory, or as offering
guarantees for the future, but when
the proposition Of addressing the en-
peror formally on the subject was put
to the house the governmental major
ity did not hesitate in voting against
it.
