AMBASSADOR TO ENGLAND.

Since the retirement of Brother
Charlie" from the senatorial contest in
Ohio there has been some gossip to the
effect that he would be made ambas-
sador to the court of st. james. in sue
cession to Whitelaw Reid. presumably
upon the theory that having money to
burn he would cut big figure in Lon
don by a lavish display of American
dollars and thereby enhance the glory
and prestige of the United States. The
really great men who have represented
this country at the capital of Great
Britain were not rich, which fact moves
the New York Sun to observe:
Mr. Charles Francis Adams. who had
the most difficult position of any Amer
lean minister of the last century. won the
respect of hostile aristoCTacy by a cold
ness greater than its own. though cover
ing an internal fire-"This, my Lord.
means war'-by constant watchfulness
for the interests of his country, by un-
failing GOODNESS, tact and discretion. Men
like Everett Bancroft. Motley. Lowell,
social vogue to any passion for splendof,
ana some of the most popular among
them were actually poor.
The general run of American citizens
will probably agree with the conclusion
reached by the Sun. This being SO, the
suggestion that Charles w. Eliot, who
recently resigned the presidency of
Harvard, be appointed ought to find in
slant favor If Mr.. Taft is looking for
a man of parts for'this most important
post i'm the field of diplomacy he need
look no farther Mr.. Eliot fills the bill.

THEY WANT HELP.

The world owes every man a living,
is an old saying, but that the United
States government is under obligations
to make every mans business remuner-
alive is a claim that is of comparative
ly recent origin. The Bicycling World
company of New York, speaking of for
eign trade, says:
The expectation Of bicycles and bicycle
parts once cut a considerable figure in the
business of the United States. During re-
cent years it has steadily declined. and
there is every indication that this year it
will fall below the milliondolla mark de-
spite the fact that similar expectations
from Germany for the ten months of the
current year have exceeded s1i. 300. eco
while those of Great Britain for similar
period approximately are s6.00.e00. We
were at one time at the head of cycle-ex-
shrinkage is due to natural conditions. the
discrepancy between the value of our ex-
ports and those of the two countries spec
flied are so enormous that II suggests that
something should be done to assist the in
dustry.
Just what form the gratuity should
take is not suggested by the World
company, and is wholly immaterial to
the interested parties so long as they
get something for nothing. An appro-
priation for the benefit of the bicycle
industry might be gotten through con-
gress in the deficiency bill or the rivers
and hsrbors graft. Better stin, the
president might be induced to provide
for the languishing bicycle trade out of
the contingent fund. the secret service
fund, or any other fund upon which he
can lay hands. The main point is that
the bicycle people cannot compete with
the foreigners in the markets abroad.
and they should be given something out
of the public pocket.

advantage. For example in Texas there
is valley from Galveston to Houston,
that is about fifty miles long, which is
said to be the most fertile valley in the
world. This valley will be cultivated
and the crops sent to the Pacific coast
where good prices can be had for them;
furthermore, this valley is the outlet to
very rich timber lands extending into
Western Texas for seven hundred miles
and the development of it will mean in
calculable wealth to the nation. This is
only one of many examples, however.
But our commerce may be greatly
quickened in other ways by bringing the
ships into competition with one another
and with the railroads. For this reason
some railroads have fought the canal.
On the other hand if we were to be
involved in war with any nation after
the ditch is completed it would be of
great value to us, for the fleets could
be transferred from the Atlantic to the
Pacific in time far shorter than is re-
quired at present. In the Spanish
American war, when the battle ship
Oregon was in the Pacific Ocean she
was ordered TO report in the Atlantic
Ocean as soon as possible. If the canal
had been there then she could have
reached the scene of action in a very
few days; but, as it was the battles
might have been fought or the war
closed before her arrival.
Hence, when we think of the vast
benefits to be derived from this great
project, when we consider the thousands
of acres eff Undeveloped territory that
are to be brought into a state of cult
walton, when we think of the millions
of dollars worth of property that will
be practically u eless for decades with
out this improvement, when we view
the spread of our civilization that will
be carried to the remotest corners of
our continent partly through this instru-
mentality, and when finally, we realize
the unbounded influence that will have
on the affairs in general Of Uncle Sam
in both peace and war, although we may
stop to count the cost, we can not help
believing that this is a vastly paying
investment and that it is one of the
worthlest of modern times. Our great
United States Government is at the
head of it and it must go through. and
may the time speedily come when our
brightest dreams of increased prosperi-
ty 20 many parts of our land in particu-
lar, and to America in general, may be
/ fully realized.
