could they help il, when all those
things made expressly for children's

Youngsters would enter the gate and
pause. What should they do first? A
whoop, and a Decline was made fol-
the merry-go-reund. the popular tunes
of which could be heard all over the
park. All day long Frederick Dale and
Roscoe Briggs, the merry-go-rund man
ayers, worked hard, to see that each
one got the full benefit Of his precious
pink ticket.
Equally popular was the r~oller-coaster
managed by T.. 1. Kithcart. Young
sters of all sizes, boys with Bowery ac-
cents and boys with no accent; girls
with pig-tails and girls with curls, al
with smiles that would make the
original Cheshire cat die of jealousy
were bundled into the cars, to Shrek
with delight as they went up the high
places, and lose their breaths in de-
licious terror on the down grades.
A big event of the afternoon was
the outdoor circus, enjoyed by the per
formers every bit as much as the
audience. Every effort was received
with wild applause, and 1t was plain
to see that every child who watched
was resolved TO become an acrobat or
a clown when he grew up.
Attractions Were Many.
Those who performed were the Grin
Troupe, the Avoletts, Laredo and Blake,
and Frederick and Venita. During the
afternoon selections were rendered by
Appell's band. Among the other attrac-
tions were the helter-skelter. circle
swing, weighing machine and the foun-
tain. Many of the youngsters waxed
enthusiastic over u game of baseball
played by the Olympic Park employees
and the members of the Aborn Opera
Company. During the afternoon the
children also had the privilege OF dane

way. The increase in the width OF
he locks from a hundred to a hur
dred and ten feet, now adopted, will
involve an additional expense OF
$5,ooo,ooo, and if many more such
improvements are adopted it may be
found the most economical plan will
be to dispense with the locks alto
gether and cut the canal down to
sea-level at the start. Indeed, even
the present estimate of Colonel
Goethals for the cost Of completing
the lock canal is higher than the es-
innate submitted to Congress for
sea-level canal at the time when the
lock project was adopted. The
Board of Consulting Engineers
thought that the sea-level cut could
be made for $247, 900, although ii
figured that it would take twenty
years to do the work. Secretary
Taft informed the Senate Committee
on Inter-oceanic Canals on January
I6, that the canal ought to be fin
ished on the present plans by July,
1914. The Culebra cut could be put
through in three years if the dirt
continued to fly as it is flying now,
but it had been decided to hold back
that work until the completion of the
Gatun dam and locks.

THE WOMEN'S REPUBLICAN
CLUB.

The Women's Republican club is
doing good work, as it has ever done,
and it is not only becoming but has
become an indispensable adjunct to
the organization in chief, The sug-
gestions made at the recent meeting
were timely and proper, and carried
out can but result in great good to
the people individually and collect
lively, for it should be known where
it is not that this is exactly for what
the Republican party was organized, IS
carried on, and has been given such
grea. and repeated grants of power
in the affairs of the land. The work
and influence of the women will be
needed in the campaign now at our
doors, and that these will be had in
full measure need not be said.
This is remindful that women are
not only permitted but expected and
made welcome at the Lincoln day
gatherings of the party.

REPUBLICAN TARIFF RE-
FORMERS.

Politics is some mixed in the time
honored state of Massachusetts. II
used to be, and for all practical pur-
poses is yet Republican strong
hold; last November it gave Gov
Guild a majority of 100000 over H.
NJ. Whitney; yet those who think
this is a protection victory are reck-
oning without their host, as is re-
membered by those who remember
the formers speech before the Ma
tional Association of Boot and Shoe
Manufacturers on January IA. 1t is
shown that like almost everybody
else in Massachusetts, the Governor
wanted free hides, but unlike good
many others he announced that he
was willing to surrender a corre-
spending amount of duty on the
manufactured goods. Processing
himself still a protectionist, he in
sisted that the time had come when
illogical and needless duties should
cease to hamper our industries and
our people" Governor Guild though
the taxes on wool unnecessarily high,
and believed that the present speci-
fc duties should be changed to ad
valorem rates. He could see "ab-
solutely no justification for the re-
tention of duty on coal" He sug-
gested maximum and minimum sched-
ules to promote reciprocity. He
asked why there should be duty on
beef, when there was five hundred
million pounds of exports and no i'm
ports. He found a similar situation
in the matter of rails and other items
of the steel schedule. Finally" he
insisted, "the needs of the people de-
mand halt in the destruc ion of our
forests. 1t is illogical that the State
should be called upon to maintain

wood pulp, offers bounty daily for
the destruction Of the trees"
With Republican Governor of
Republican State taking such posi-
ton, says Golfers, it is rather ludi-
crous to reflect that his Democratic
opponent in the late campaign tried
to rally tariff reform sentiment
against him by the thrilling war cry
of a cautious reduction in duties in
the course of twenty years.

The editor of Truth is and always

CANDIDATES FOR JUDGES.

1t is not the present purpose OF this
paper 10 labor for or aginst the nom

cal position in Utah; but it is not out
of place 10 make casual mention of

in what the delegates do before they

ince to aid them as far as it can and

The near approach of the Republi-
can judicial convention opens the

of them, that will come before it
have been already mentioned in
these columns, but this is a case in
which frequency will not hurt. 1t is
we'll understood that the present dis
trict judges are all up for renomina-
ton, but there are few on the out
side who will scarcely give assent
to such a programme; among these is
Attorney General Breeder, who has
made an excellent record in his pres
emf position and is we'll entitled to
promotion, if promotion it can be
called. Judge Whitaker and H. A.
Smith also have a following worth
while, and as time advances there
may be others.
Judge Armstrong is the youngest
among the incumbents. He has
made good magistrate, his rulings
being fair and able and he is thor
oughly non-part;san on the bench,
as Judge ought to be. He has Gre
ated some opposition, but this was
more through misunderstanding him
than anything else, and he will I'M
doubtedly go into the convention

THAT EXPENSIVE CANAL.

Everybody in this country who ex-
poets to live long enough to see it
completed is interested in the Pana-
ma canal. We now have it, on the
authority of Golfers Weekly, that
Colonel Cocktails is breaking gently
to the American people he news that
the Panama canal will not be as
cheap as they thought it would be.
His present estimate of the cost of
the Canal is $25o,ooo,ooo, in addition
to the $5o,ooo,ooo paid to the French
Canal Company and the Republic OF
Panama. The original estimate by
the Board of Consulting Engineers,
on the basis of which Congress au-
thorized the work, was $I3o7o5, 200,
not counting the cost of sanitation,
water-works, sewers, and paving for
Panama and Colon, the re-equipment
of the Panama Railroad, or the ex-
penses of the Zone Government.
The appropriations have already
amounted to nearly eighty million
dollars; there will be a deficit of
about eleven millions in the current
fiscal year, and the Commission has
asked for over thirty-three millions
more for the fiscal year 1909. That
brings the expenditures up to about
a hundred and twenty-four million
dollars, or eight-ninths of the total
original estimate, by June 80, Iyoy,
with the hardest part of the work
still ahead.
On this showing the American peo-
pie may consider themselves lucky If
they get off with the $25o,ooo,ooo al
which Colonel Goethals sets his pres
ent limit. The disquieting thing is
that there is no certainty that this
estimate will be any more final than
its predecessors. There is no as
surance that the present plans will
be followed to the end. The change
by which the Pacific locks are to be
shifted inland from La Boca to Mira
flores is expected to save money,
but the most changes work the other

FIELD GOALS COME REGULAR.
No Longer "a Novelty; Frequent
Enough to Make One Man
Against II.

Goals from the field have this fall
increased so wonderfully that IL
would not be surprising IL at the next
meeting of the football rules COM
mittee this winter the question of
reducing the points to be gained by
this method was not again brought
up for legislation. II so the chances
are that its vaule will he reduced
That would be reasonable move al
least.
As long as there were only few
OF these kicks made each season the
supporters of the idea of reducing the
value of the kick could not get a fol
lowing. The argument was advanced
that the points counted should be SUI
iieent TO make II worth while 10 lead
men 10 Try 10 score in this manner
That was good reasoning. too. But
even with four points the coaches
would not take the chance until the
new game forced them to find some
other means to score when 10 Yards
could not be gained in three downs
by end runs and line smaches.
This has really been the cause of
the great increase in the number of
drop and place kicks this fall. The
same average of players who could
kick successfully field goals could
have been struck FIVE years ago If the
coaches had insisted on the men try
ing to score in that way. Ii is no
easier to kick field goal now than
1t was 10 years ago. The fact that
more success attends the attempts
now isthat there are many more trials
both In practice and I'm the games
themselves
Some players are now able 10 score
with consistency three and four times
in single game. and how many more
times remains to be seen. The
novelty has all worn off the play, and
one man offsets eleven If no one of
those eleven has practiced this
method Of scoring. In other words.
the result of the contest more and
more becomes matter of individul
skill than the combined skill of the
team. And the combined skill Is
scientific football.
But now that almost every team
has one or two players on It who can
kick goals II will be fair thing all
around to reduce the value of such
score. Even IL the kick only counted
two points, which is one more than n
goal from touchdown. the points
gained would still be worth the effort
the coaches should continue to keen
their players at work along this line.
There is something inspiring to a
football team TO smash heads and lab
elbows with old gridiron warriors
who have helped establish the
traditions of the game for that par
tieular institution.
Some of the old timers are coach
ing now. and are in pretty good trim.
