PRESIDENTIAL INFLUENCE
AND PANAMA CANAL.

Nearly five years have as.cd since
the United States took possession of
the Canal Iouc. Affairs were then in
an almost chaotic state on the 18th
mus.
It was not until the spring of 1905
that. with the selection OF the commits
sion headed by Theodore 2. Shonts
and the board OF consulting engineers
headed by Gen. George W. Davis. this
greatest of American enterprises start
cd in earnest I'm November. 1905. the
consulting engineers, by a vote Of
eight 10 five. decided to report in favor
OF a sea level canal President Roose-
1eit reviewed the report and decided in
favor Of lock canal. Congress ac-
cepted his decision. Twice since then
Isis decision has been sustained by a
special board Of engineers.
Dir. Shonts resigned IN January,
1907 Two months later his successor.
John r. Stevens. handed in his rcsigna-
tion. Since April ], 1907, the work has
been in charge of Lieut.. Col. George "

DEARLY BOUGHT VICTORY
FOR OLD HOUSE RULES.

That was indeed a Pyrrhic victory
which the supporters of the old regime
in the natioral House of Representa-
tives won when they carried their rule
for calendar Wednesday by the vote
of los to l62 1t was on Its face a vic
tory; but it was won at a cost which
seems surely to portend defeat when,
on March 10, the new Congress shall
organize.
The insurgents announced after the
fight was over that they will have
twenty three members on the Repub-
Hcsn side of the next House, ready to
stand with them to the finish: 10 re-
fuse to caucus on rules, and 20 line up
with the Democrats to make sweeping
amendments. With four more Repub-
lican votes, plus the Democrats, they
will be able to control the new House.
There are thirty-eight new Republicans
coming TO the House, among whom it
IS stated positively the four needed
recruits will be secured Iowa. Wis
consin, Indiana, and other States Will
help make up the number.
Thus 1t looks decidedly a if the in
surgent Democratic protest had won
assurance Of prevailing. II has won, of
course, because it made a powerful ap-
peal TO the country. The fact that the
present rulers Of the House were will
ing to make the small concession Of an
oyergusrded calendar call is evidence
that they nave heard from the country.
II looks decidedly a. If the revolution
airy move Will at last win, of taking
from the Speaker his power to name
committees and their chairmen
II will be a great victory for the
cause OF really representative govern

ANOTHER RAILROAD FOR
REAL PUBLICITY.

President Finley. of the Southern
Railroad. has set fine example to his
associates at the head of great trans
portation systems in frankness with the
public. 1t is good to see from the cur
rent issue Of the Railway Journal that
our townsman is not to stand alone IN
this respect. Read this from President
/. f. johnson, of the Norfolk and
Western:
To bring about cordial co-opera-
ton between the public and the cor
pOratiOns. especially railroads, with
q view of creating harmony in mat
ters pertaining to railway legislation
and the regulation OF rates, ass umlnS
that the public VIII always De inter
ested in such matterS-there IS no
channel that can be more effective
than the press, dealing frankly ana
honestly with every subject that IS
presented.
am also a firm believer in the
good results to be obtained by the
railroad officials in the operating and
traffic departments meeting frequent
" with boards of trade and CONNER
cial bodies located along the line OF
railroad they represent treating
shippers and the public in general IN
an omen and frank manner: al the
same time complying Win llit law .
so far as they may be interpreted
How long has this view held? Not
long. and never widely. The youngest
reporters on many newspapers can re-
call when railroads. far from dealing
frankly and honestly with every sub
Jet that is presented undertook even
to hide the news of a wreck. There are
roads that today viii not disclose IN
formation as to prospective changes IN
freight and passenger schedules There
are roads with offices here in Wash
ington which have not respect enough
for bodies of local business men to give
more than grudging hearing to just
complaints as to freight tariffs
In the end publicity Of the right sort
will prove an invariable accompani-
ment Of good railroad management
Today it marks perhaps one line in ten
To the company of Mr. Finley it Is
specially good, therefore, to welcome
Mr. johnson.

Goethsls, who has personal supervision
of construction and engineering.
Both President Roosevelt and Presi-
dent-clcct Taft have visited the canal
zone and have come home satisfied that
thc lock canal idea Is all right, and
that the work Is going ahead as well
a. could be expected. Colonel Cocktails,
though i'm no wise responsible for the
choice of the lock canal plan, himself
believes that plan to be better than the
other.
Whether tho agitation in favor Of
the type OF canal favored by the ma
iority report Of the original board OF
consulting engineers viii affect Con
grcss TO the extent Of having the whole
subject thrown wide open again for
discussion and dcfinitive settlement Is
a question. But even If Congress
should reopen the case. the new Prcsl-
dent Will doubtless use his influence 20
oppose any radical change of plan lie
Is a firm believer in the lock canal
idea He has a grasp of the whole ca
nal question that includes the military,
commercial and financial as well IS
technical phases. and he has behind
him the support Of the latest body OF
engineering experts to visit the scene
of the work

LET FRIENDS OF RETIREMENT
GET BUSY.

II Civil Service retirement Is ever
to b. anything more than prospect,
it will he because there Is push behind
IL. Push IN this instance means chiefly
a campaign of education. The instruc-
tion mtst not stop with Congressman,
but 60 OH to the constituents Of legis-
lators of both houses. Then, when the
country understands that the project Is
not to create a new civil pension list,
sustained out of the Treasury alone.
and that 1t Is an expression of good
business principle as developed in most
of the large corporations, the issue can
be fought out on its merits.
1t Is good to read that an effort
will be made to pass civil service re
tirement bill at the extra session. But
the DILL will not pass If there Is not a
more general understanding of II. So
it is suggested to those behind this
movement that they dip pen in ink and
90 to work
Prepare a statement of the bill and
the conditions which have produced it
for the Washington correspondents OF
outside newspapers. Send copies of IT
70 friends in Congressional districts
Inform magazine editors Help the
country to wake up to the Importance
Of the movement.
Then not only viii the cause have
some earthly chance TO succeed at the
hands of Congress, but the whole Prin-
ciPle of the merit system in the eXecu-
tive departments will be REINFORCED.
