lie has succeeded in impressing labor
on the lsthmus with his kindly inter
est in its behalf. On this point the spe-
cial commissions report says: From
the outset we were strongly impressed
by the spirit OF good will and loyalty
of the employees The general
sentiment of the workers was expressed
in the words OF mechanic, in one of
the conferences which we held with
representatives of different trades. Said
he: We want ii understood that we
are American citizens and that we are
proud TO have share in this great
work. We believe the government IL
treating us right. and we are as much
interested TO see this thing success
as anyone This spirit of loyalty and
interest in the work was evidenced on
many occasions and should be account
ed as an asset OF the highest value 70

ThrouEhtfuI About Labor.

Mr.. Tafts chief concern has been the
proper care Of the laboring man on the
isthmus. Under his patient and ap-
proved methods the terrible scourge
of yellow fever. against which the
French struggled in vain. the filthy and
pest breeding state OF the principal
Panamanian towns. the rough labor
camps, and other pioneer hardships OF
the two first eras. have been eliminated,
He has accomplished these things
through the activity OF the Department
OF Sanitation, the Department Of Mu-
nicipa! Engineering and the Building
Department. To-day we find yellow
fever driven from the isthmus. the
deadly stegomyia mosquito thus rem
dered innocuous. malaria and pneu
monia greatly reduced and a high

Must Know Personally.

Like the Philippine project and other
great work laid upon him, he has
studied the situation at Panama at
close range and trusted TO no second
hand information with which to in
sure his success. There has been about
ninety million dollars expended on the
work to date and Mr.. Taft has had to
approve every dollar Of this expend-
ture. He has not been satisfied with
a single visit to the isthmus. hut has
made the long journey every year so
that he might direct the work more
economically. The result is that he has
changed the situation there from an n.
hOspitahle region to a locality where
Americans can live I'm healthful So
curity without the fear OF plaques or
dread OF contagious diseases. The rate
OF mortality on the isthmus is; about
the same as II is in our American cities
