The Town Marsha1's Duty

To properly enforce the "hog law" the council wisely decided that the employment of mar shal and street commissioner fer full time is necessary, but just how this is to affect the finances of tue town is a problem that is susceptible of some figuring. Thirty dollars per month is small enough wages for any man who gives the town 10 full hours of labor a day, but that salary aggregates S360.00 year, which comes uncomfortably close to the size of the amount raised by the usual town levy.
 The Tribune has no fault to find with the work of the council and we presume that it has calculated some and can see it's way clearly.
 One thing sure, however, is that the marshall street commissioner will have to keep busy to earn his salary for the town. The money paid him is worso than | misspent if he is permitted to draw his pay for walking up and down the streets. His principal business should be to clean up the town, work the streets either a S overseer or alcne.
 Every minute of his working hours should be employed when the weather will permit.
 In order to help pay the marshal's salary, The Tribune suggests that all persons subject to street duty who desire to hire their time put in pay the amount to the mar- shal to work same out on the streets in their stead and that the matter be so arranged that the town will get credit for it on his salary, that is for some of the time, at least, that he works single handed.
 The Tribune has not submitted these suggestions because of any kick upon the work of Marshal Reed. We have not sufficient chance yet to conclude what he will do, nor has he been given fell instructions by the council as to what will be expected of him.
 If the matter is handled exactly right, we believe the council has acted wisely, but it is going to take diligence upon the part of the marshal to prove that the council has not made mistake.
 Steady employment upon the part of one man in capacity which Mr. Reed is employed ought to keep the town clean, all ordinances enforced and the streets in repair without any considerable outlay of additional money. Every man subject to road duty in the corporate limits may be warned out for four days in the year, aud the fund brought in from those who do not wish to work themselves will go along way toward paying for the marshal's work on the streets.

canal II II people had to encounter
the hostiIities OF the Panamanians.
Here was a problem largely similar
to that met by Mr.. Taft in the Philip
pines, and calling for the exercise OF
the same qualities of tact, sympathy.
justice and patience which he had ex-
hibited In the Far East.
1t became his ask to convince the
Panamanian people and government
that the United States had not gone
to the isthmus to build a rival state
instead of a canal. AS head OF the war
department, n the superior OF the
canal commission. he has conducted
all affairs Of this government with the
republic OF Panama since the ratidca-
ton OF the original treaty. and has
succeed In keeping DUR relations
with the isthmus uniformly pleasant.
Always, at least once a year, he has
made q trip to the canal zone and ex-
amined AFFAIRS there with his own eyes,
He has just returned from the isthmus,
the president having sent him there to
settle a number of questions which re.
quired his personal consideration on
the ground. Perhaps some conception
Of his responsibilities on the isthmus
may be had from the fact that Hnce
the actual work of canal building be-
gan there has been spent on 1t upward
Of $50, 000, 900, and every dollar Of that
expenditure required and received hi
approval.

CAMPAIGN PUBLICITY.

MI. Taft has announced that there
Will be complete publicity OF all
moneys paid into the republican ma.
tional committee treasury, in strict &C.
cordance with the New York law. Mr.,
Bryan says there will be publicity OF
all amounts in excess of 500 paid into
the democratic campaign fund. Does
moi this appear to be somewhat Of a
hollow mockery on the part of Mr..
Bryan? Unquestionably he believes
that the greater portion of the money
he will receive will come from those
who will pass up small amounts and
they will be shielded. or course II
will be easy for men like Tom Tag
CART, with his French Lick gambling
joint, to have a hundred employees con.
tribute 500 each. II he desires to do
SO, n then they could later make
another contribution. How easy it
would be to entirely evade publicity
under Mr.. Bryan's proposition. Sup
pose Tammany wanted to give a mil
lion dollars. there would be no trou-
BILE at all for 1t to arrange the matter
under Mr.. Bryan's rule and not have
its contribution made public.
If Mr.. Bryan is to be honest about
the matter at all. why not either do
one thing or the other-publish all
donations that may be made or none

Chicago, H., July 27.-As the re-
suit of the republican conference here
Saturday, which vas called by Frank
H. Hitchcock, chairman OF the nation.
al committee, headquarters will be
established Immediately In eight states
and active campaigning for Taft and
Sherman begun long before these
states had expected to take up work.
The states taking part In the con-
ference were Illinois, Indiana, Iowa,
Kentucky, Missouri. Michigan, Mime
sofa and Wisconsin.
Meeting is Enthusiastic.
The meeting was the most enthusi-
astic held by Mr.. Hitchcock, although
at the outset the men were less re-
ceptive than were the representatives
of the states in the far west, who met
early in the week at Colorado Springs.
This was due, it is said, to the fact
that some of the men came from
states which they regarded as debata.
BILE and they had little data on which
to base political estimates.
Will Poll the Voters.
1t was agreed that polls should be
taken at onee in order to gather neces-
sary information concerning the vot-
ers. and William Hayward, state chair
man for Nebraska, and Victor Rose,
water, national committeeman from
that state, explained the system they
have used there for a number of years.
Will Begin At Once.
The leaders from Wisconsin were
not inclined to open headquarters in
that state until after the state repub-
lican ticket had been named. After
a general campaign program had been
outlined by Mr.. Hitchcock, the men
became interested and it was agreed
that work should be commenced In
all states as oon a. possible.

TAFT AND THE CANAL.

When Mr.. Taft became secretary of
war this country had just taken pos.
session OF the canal zone, under treaty
with the republic Of Panama, and OF
the old canal property, including the
Panama railroad, by purchase from the
French company. The work was all
to do. The country expected the dirt
TO begin to fly at once. The news
papers n periodicals were full of
cartoons representing Uncle Sam in
long boots with a spade on his shoulder,
strid'ng down to the isthmus to begin
digging. But before there could be
any e a excavation there was a tre-
mendous task + meet. First of all the
isthmus must be changed from a dis.
ease breeding pest-hole to a place
where Americans could live and work
In safety. The canal zone must be
cleane up. mosquitoes stamped out and
the place mades sweet and healthy. Hab.
itations u be constructed for MANY
thousands of workmen and their fam.
lie The cities of Panama and Colon.
at the terminals of the canal, must be
made thoroughly sanitary and suppAel
with water and sewers. An organfza.
ton for the work OF canal construc.
ton must be perfected and millions of
dollars worth Of machinery and D
plies must be purchasea,and transport
ed to the isthmus.
All these things. however, were of
a purely business character, 1t re-
Quired Only time and ability to handle
then properly. But there was another
matter to be taken care Of before these
could be undertaken, and It was OF a
decidedly different nstare. The Hay
Varilla treaty with Panama had Sc.
cured to the United States al the
rights necessary for complete control
Of the canal zone. and it beeame u the
utmost Importance to insnre The main
tenance OF friendly relations with the
people OF the isthmus repahNc. It
