ON PANAMA CANAL.
Vice President Fairbanks Speaks at
Meeting of Bankers.

Chicago. Nov. Vice President
Fairbanks was the principal speaker at
the banquet of the Bankers club of
Chicago in this city tonight. In dis
eussing his subject, THE Panama Ca
nall Mr.. Fairbanks said:
Hand in hand with the construction
of the Panama canal should go the
Improvement of our great rivers so as
to insure an adequate stage of water
and reasonable charges for the trans
portation of the products of our farms
and factories over large areas. With
the expansion Of our productive power
and the density of our population ii is
necessary to increase the facilities for
Of production and consumption within
our own borders and foreign ports The
recent adoption of a constitutional
amendment by the people of Illinois
empowering the legislature to authorize
q bond issue of $4,000, 600 for giving
Chicago an outlet by a deep waterway
TO the Mississippi river is an import
ant and significant step. and we can
indulge the belief that in the course of
few years, upon the completion of
this enterprise and the Panama canal
lumber and other products from the
Pacific coast viii be delivered at Chi
cagO by an all-water route and that
Chicago viii, in short, enjoy many i'm
provements and advantages of cheap
transportation which are to flow from
the completion of both of these great
undertakings

MISPLACED SYMPATHY.
New York SUM-

DR.. Simon Flexner, discussing the
observation-disclosures in New York, said
that their sympathy for animals was
as misplaced as the sympathy of Au-
relien Scholrs Frenchman.
This Frenchman, he explained, I'M
luckily bought an almanac that gave
the dates of the worlds chief events.
From that day on he lived life OF
mourning. Thus, on April 80, he had
crepe on his hat.
Have you lost a relative?" a friend
asked. mot exactly said he. But
today is a sad anniversary for the
French people. On April 80, 1924, the
Chevalier Bayard died" On May he
had the crepe on again. Still mourn
ing Bayard?" said the friend. NO,
said he; but don't you remember that
on May . great and charming poet
Alfred de Musset, breathed his last?
On the 9th of the same month: Whom
are you mourning for now?" For an
honest man; General Caviagnac." on
the Both. crying terribly, he said: All
Joan of Arc. On this date. in 1431, a
handful of Englishmen and a miser-
able bishop put the gallant maid to
DEATH" On July 13 he took bath in
memory of the assassination of Marat
On the 18th Geranger's death gave him
fatal shock. On the 18th. having read
of Napoleon's departure to St Helena,
he felt better, but on the 23d the bonn
bardment of Dieppe by the English. in
1894, confined him again to his bed. He
was taken with a fever and died on the

BAILEY AND P|NCHOT SPEAK
Addresses on Policies of the Admin
istration Are Given at Political
Science Meeting.

Philadelphia Nov. Professor l..
H. Bailey, dean of the agricultural de-
partment at Cornell college, head of the
commission appointed by President
Roosevelt to investigate farm life. and
Clifford Pinchot. United States fore
caster and chairman of the natural con-
servation commission, were among the
speakers at a meeting here tonight Of
the American Academy of Political and
Social Science.
The farm and conservation commits
sionS will begin their investigations on
Monday. They will hold a joint session
at the Agricultural college Of Mary
land. where social and economical con-
ditions in the south will be studied. The
two commissions will travel together as
far as Ell Paso, Tex, where they will
separate.
During the course of his address.
Professor Bailey said:
'The presidents idea in appointing
the far mcommission was to establish
a body TO maintain our natural re-
sources and after that a commission to
utilize our natural wealth."
He added:
THE commission, il has been said,
was appointed for political purposes
namely. that the agricultural vote
might be won for the administration
but / wish to say i'm emphatic denial of
that statement that the president had
this commission in mind for more than
year previous to the recent conven-
lions, and there was nothing of a po-
litical aspect in its appointment"
Professor Bailey said that a final
meeting of the two commissions would
be held in Washington on Dec. 16, when
report would probably be submitted
to President Roosevelt
Mr.. Pinchot said, in part:
1.-The administration which is Just
drawing to close will be remembered
for many achievements. From the pas
sage of the national irrigation act 10
the punishment of great corporations
which have long denied the laws: from
the prevention of railroad rebating to
the conservation of natural resources,
there runs through all of them a single
thread which has been peculiarly an
administration full lof human feeling,
full of sympathetic understanding of
the position. and point of view of the
average man. The thread which runs
through all of its varied work and all
its great results is that of a successful
attempt to understand what. the needs
and rights of the average man are and
tried to get them for him.

Pierce, chairman Of the Waters-Pierce
Oil company, left here tonight for Aus
tin, Tex, where he will appear in court
to answer to charge of false swearing
in an custer suit of that state against

tirely recovered from his recent illness
in Massachusetts, and assured inquir-
ers that he has no fear of the outcome
of the Texas case.
He was accompanied by Henry s.
Priest. his attorney. who explained that
there is no danger of a summary arrest
of his client by the Texas officers
''Such course would have no stand
ing in court" said Mr. Priest. 1.-The
mandate of the supreme court of the
United States in the case has not been
transmitted to the lower court officials,
and the Texas county officials have no
basis for action.
'-Mr. Pierce is going to enter an APP
pearance, and we expect to secure his
release on bonds immediately"
