KITTREDGE OPPOSES
CANAL BOND ISSUE
Insists That Sea Level Waterway
Should Have Been Built.

Washington, Feb. 10.-The senate
became involved in a discussion Of
the type OF canal that should be con-
structed at Panama. Senator Kilt
redge, chairman of the committee on
inter-oceanic canals, precipitated this
debate by bringing in an adverse re-
port on the Hopkins bill authorizing
the secretary of the treasury to issue
bonds to the extent of $500, 900, 900
for the construction of the canal.
Reading statement of expendi-
lures on the canal up to date, he de-
clared that the completion of the lock
canal would cost $4O0,0 100000 and in
sisted that a great mistake had been
made in not adhering to the plans for
the building of sea level wafer way
across the isthmus, which he said
would be cheaper than the lock canal
Senators Foraker and Teller both
Joined Mr.. Kittredge in declaring the
belief that a sea level canal should
be constructed and Mr.. Kittredge said
1t was too late to abandon the lock
project.

Doctor Is Treating MassiIIon Patients
For Parcels.
Massillon, o., Feb. 10.-In his ad-
dress at the sixth councillor district
of the Union Medical society at Nc
Kinley hall, Massillon state hospital,
DR.. j. D. O'Brien exhibited four pa
tients who are suffering from paresis
and who have been treated with a
recently discovered serum when he
claims to have found beneficial. The
four patients exhibited we're in diff
ferent stages of paresis.
Il have just closed up a million
dollar deal with John d. Rockefeller y
declared one of the patients. "He has
sold me his golf links. he strain of
the transaction mas brought on a seri-
Gus attack of nervousness. That's
why l am in the hospital-just recup-
Grating"
The clinic was a demonstration to
show the condition of the patients
now. 1t is proposed to test DR..
O'Brien's methods of treatment to the
full on these four subjects.

grievances from the house tops and
on the highways and among the he'd
ges.
l deem it pertinent to the foregoing
to say that during the late cold
weather, only four complaints besides
he one you registered in your columns
Mr.. Editor were made concerning
faulty gas in this city, and these were
entered at the Office of the gas com
pany and had very slight foundation.
| think Mr.. Editor that this is a
very good showing considering the ex-
tensive clientage the gas company
has In this city and county. \
Vi one thing the public of Winches-
ter may be assured and that is. the
utmost efforts have been EMPLOYED bv
the gas company to, give the best
satisfaction and these same efforts
will never cease. If any customer be-
comes loaded down with complaints
come around to headquarters and un-
load on us, and we will get to work
Immediately to doctor and cure all
lntirmltles If any in the service.
Yours sincerely,

TOTE FAIR MR.. EDITOR.
To the Editor of The News:


Dear Sir-In your issue Of Mon
day, February 0th, the subjoined par
agraph was embodied in an editorial
under the caption Of Thanks and a
Knock"
"The Editor of this paper has been
under the weather; the doctor says
he just lodged pneumonia. He holds
natural gas responsible for most of
his troubles; it always seems to fail
when the weather gets coolest and
when it is most needed. When the
editor builds his house in Winchester,
he may remember natural gas for its
cleanliness but its cinch he installs
somewhere around the house at least,
one good, fashioned coal fire."
The element of fair play l think,
has been a conspicuous quantity in
the publication of The News since its
inception several months ago, but In
the foregoing | beg leave to submit
that the editor has Skipped a cog
though it was doubtless not intention
! al.
In the first place if the gas in his
home failed during the recent cold
"snap" and caused him illness, why
did he not register complaint at
the office of the gas company in this
citv of such delinquency, so that If
possible the company could set about
to effect a remedy.
| beg to submit Mr.. Editor that this
would have been in far better form
\ 1t would have accorded to the com
pany that justice which under the CIR
cumstances was due it.
If the gas cOmpany's management
in this city had been advised of the
discomfort created in the Editor
home by the failure of the gas, rem
edy would have been quickly applied
and effected. l regret very much that
the Editor has been sick, and that he
alleges his sickness was caused by
the failure of the gas, and | regret
also that he did not "knock" at the
proper time and at the proper place.
Let me employ in this connection a
juxta- position. If subscriber of our
worthy daily paper assumed unjust
ly the prerogrative of knocking to
every body except the Editor about
some delinquency or error in receiving
his paper the Editor would doubtless
knock too, and demand that the ag-
grieved subscriber come to headquar-
tiers and knock, and not announce his

FIGHTERS IN FINE FfTTLt
Cross and Driscoll to Meet for Ten
Rounds Tonight at New York.

Cross and DriscoII to Meet for Ten
Rounds Tonight at New York.
New York, Feb. 10.-Unless all
signs fail, followers of the game of
hit and get away will see a corking
good bout tonight when Leach Cross
of New York and Jem Driscoll of
Wales face each other. The little
Welshman has cleaned up about
everything there is in his class on
this side of the water and is deter
mined to add Cross scalp to his col
lection.
The New Yorker, however, is con-
siderably heavier than Driscoll, and
that fact is worrying the admirers of
the latter. Cross has a good punch
that hurts when it lands, and his fol-
lowers think he will land on the
Welshman. The latter, however, is
considered to be the superior of Cross
In everything but weight. Both men
are in fine shape. and it will be a
fight worth going far to see. 1t is
scheduled to go ten rounds.

Washington, Feb. 10.-For nearly
six hours the house of representatives
discussed the bill materially chang

Panama canal zone and constructing
the canal. Amendments almost with
out number were aimed at the meas
ure but with one or two exceptions
they failed Of adoption. Consideration
of the bill was completed but because
of a threatened roll call by the op
ponents of the bill, and the hour be-
ing late, Mr.. Mann, having it in
charge, did not ask for vote.

New Phone No. 81.
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1909
CALIFORNIA AND Japan.

In spite of the protests of the
President, California has passed most
of the anti-Japanese bills. The one
most obnoxious to Japan is that pro-
Viding for the segregation Of the island
ers while in the schools. The Pres
ident advises an appeal to the courts
to see if the bill cannot be declared
unconstitutional.
To many at a distance it seems as
If the whole affair could have been
left to the Federal Government, where
1t In reality belongs. But the Federal
Government is naturally slow and the
Californians are impatient. Already
an agreement has been made by the
State department with the Japanese
by which the latter is to limit the
number of laborers who shall be adj
mitted to this country and if this be
maintained for twenty years or so, it
will solve the question itself, just as
the Chinese exclusion acts have solv-
ed the Chinese questions.
But when all is said and done it is
a question Of the races. In the South
ern States, separate schools are pro-
Vided for white and colored. Even
such a school as Berea was forbidden
by the Kentucky law. On the other
hand, in our State, Japanese boys are
admitted to our schools and 70 one
thinks anything of it. There are so
few Japanese that no one here thinks
of yellow peril.
But in California, thousands of
Japanese are fOcking to the State,
and are meeting the whites in bus
mess, In labor and in education.
The competition between the races is
keen. Immediately threats of the yell
low peril are heard on all sides. And
the dominant white race Immediately
insists that Japanese children shall be
educated apart. On the other hand,
there are few. negroes In California,
and, as a matter of course, the col
ored children attend the same schools
as the white children and nothing is
thought of it.
1t is the old Anglo Saxon DONNA
ton of race. The English have over
run the world. They have been the
greatest and most successful colon
ICES. Spain and France and Italy have
never succeeded. And why the differ
ence? Much of the weakness of the
Latins is attributed to their tendency
to intermarry and intermingle with
the races they govern whether negro,
Indian, or yellow. The Anglo Saxons
have held themselves sternly apart,
have either ruled or destroyed the
conquered people.
California will have her way,
whether it be through Roosevelt and
the State department or in spite of
them. The Golden State is intensely
proud Of its birth and its traditions.
Far younger than Kentucky in the roll
of States, it is in some ways more

LOOKS BAD FOR WOMEN
Columbus Authorities Find Gentle
Sex Have the Splitting Habit.

OCN TSNS tnS OplItin9 7dDIt.
Columbus, O., Feb. 10.-Spotters
employed by the Columbus health
authorities to ascertain to what ex-
tent the anti-spitting ordinance is be-
ing violated on the streets and in the
street cars, report that a great many
women are guilty of expectorating in
public places, although the men usu-
ally receive all the blame. 1t was also
noted that more violations Of, the ordi-
nance were observed on the cars that
run through the fashionable districts
of the city than on those traversing
the sections where the working class
eS reside.
The work of the spoilers was pre-
liminary to a general crusade to stop
the habit of expectorating in public
places by a rigid enforcement of the
city ordinance.

prove that joint agencies and joint

Southern Pacific railways were indi-

trary to law, the federal government
put eleven witnesses on the stand in
the hearing before Special Examiner
Sylvester G. Williams. There was
much similarity in the testimony, the
apparent effort being to increase it's
effectiveness by the multiplicity of
witnesses to the same effect.
