Little Rock, January 15.- One bill recommended by Gov. Dbnaghey in his inaugural ad- dress, an appropriation for fight ing in the courts the efforts of the railroads to raise freight and passenger rates, has already been proposed and will break
 into the House before the end Of the week. This bill, however, goes even better than Governor Donaghey asked for ,ihasmuch as he asked for only S4O,OOO to fight the railroads, while the bill provides S5O,OOO to be expended in getting the best legal array to be secured and fighting the battle to the limit.

FoOtinr che Panama Canal BlIi.

FOOTING the Panama Canal Bill.
Authority was provided long ago for
the issuance of bonds In order to
finance the construction Of the Pana-
ma canal; hence the recent raising Of
the authorization to almost treble the
original amount introduces no new
principle into the canal problem. The
initial cost OF setting the great I'M
dertaking going-that Is. the payments
to the French Canal company and to
Panama-was paid out Of funds in
the treasury with the understanding
that bonds would be issued to defray
the construction bills, thus dlstribut-
ing the burden over the years. The
present plan Is to issue bonds for
SSH. 900, 900 in all and turn back into
the treasury from the proceeds OF
their sale the $4,000, 600 expended at
the outset
But for the large deficit in the treas
ury the increased bond issue might
not have been thought Of at this time.
No one would seriously propose halt
in canal construction. The treasury
needs the money" 1t has already paid
out on the canal, and the estimates
for the total cost Of construction have
been doubled since the issue of $780,
100000 Of bonds was authorized. The
questions Of whether the larger issue
shall be for a short time or a long
time and the rate Of interest are in
volved with difficulties In the flnan-
cial sphere, but the authorization
shows that the digging is to go ahead
even though the outlook is less rosy
than we would like,

Tariff Rnten and Rsranus.


The question OF money to run the
government has forced its way into
the tarIf discussion. Originally the
IDEA OF tariff revision was to benefit
the whole country by removing in
equallties and in few cases. perhaps,
removing hardshIps from industry.
But the treasury deHcit could mot be
ignored, and the conservatism OF those
who insist that revenues must not be
clipped while the government Ii run
ming behind was natural.
1t has been said that treasury re-
ceipts for several months past have
equaled the government expenses. Re-
CARELESS, then, Of airy increase In Gus
toms revenue through revision upward
and possibly in spite Of shrinkage
caused by revision downward the gov
ernment's revenue and expenditure
might adjust themselves. When indus
try thrives importations and customs
revenue Increase. The public demands
a tariff which shall not hamper indus
try and a tax to meet government ex-
penses which shall be what It pre-
tends to be and fall on everybody
alike.

ReDeater Weston.

Edward Payson Weston's feat Of
walking from New York to San Fran
cisco in about 100 days during his
seventy-first year is enough to jar the
worshipers of the mere "get there"
man. That is often the record of the
man Of a great stunt. He scores a
marvel once. but can never repeat it.
For those who make big records the
career, as rule, is short. Physical
powers have been overtaxed and re-
bel. So the procession Of athletic
has beens" is a long one.
Weston's record will doubtless be
equaled and perhaps cut down. But
it is safe to say that the man who
pushes him from his pedestal will not
be veteran of threescore and ten
and who has been walking marvellous
distances for forty years. Weston has
taken care Of his capital. He finds
luxury in his work, not in the fame
and emolument of spurts. With him
Fart for arts sake" is a commendable
motto. He walked to keep in 1t, to be
able to do the good thing over and
over again. Persistence often pro-
duces marvels, but the chief marvel In
Weston's case IS his persisting mp to
and beyond the limit.

KeepinI, Good Rond. Good..


Every good road built creates de-
mand for another and there seems no
prospect that the building Of good
roads viii speedily come to an end.
But farslghted men advise the public
that the building Of good roads is not
the whole OF having good roads. Good
roads, like good machines. need atten-
ton. Neglect often impairs them more
seriously than 1t does poor roads. At
least the result Of neglect ID the more
noticeable. Nothing much Is expected
Of a poor road. But a once good road
which has become bad In spots II a
disappointment.
Wherever the good roads movement
takes root money for new construction
will be raised somehow. But 1t Is well
for the public looking for benefit to
realize that the maintenance Of good
roads is the hardest end of the prob
lem. Enthusiasm works up the first
appropriation; but preserving and
mendlng are dull and apparently
thankless Jobs This is feature Of
good roads that calls for patience and
wise administration. The good road
