Panama Canal.
At the instance of Colonel Goethals,
the army engineer officer in charge OF
the work on the Panama canal, have
Just made a visit to the isthmus to
inspect the work done and TO consult
with him on the ground as to certain
problems which are likely to arise In
the near future. The progress of the
work is most satisfactory II no un-
pected obstacle presents itself the
canal will be completed we'll within
the time fixed by Colonel Cocktails
to-wit, Jan 1, 19i5--and within the es.
innate of cost, $375,000,000.
Among questions arising for present
solution is the decision whether the
canal shall be fortified. have al
ready stated to the congress that |
strongly favor fertilization, and now
reiterate this opinion and ask your
consideration of the subject in the
light of the report already before you
made by competent board.
II in our discretion we believe mod.
ern Notifications to be necessary to
the adequate protection and policing
of the canal, then It Is our duty to
canal. 1t Is our property. BY conven-
ton we have indicated our desire for
and indeed undertaken its universal
and equal use. 1t is also well known
that one of the chief objects in the
construction Of the canal has been to
increase the military effectiveness OF
our navy.
Failure to fortify the canal would
leave the attainment of both these
aims in the position of rights and OBJ
legations which we should be power
less to enforce and which could never
In any other way be absolutely safe
guarded against a desperate and ire
sponsible enemy.
In determining what the tolls In
the canal should be we certainly
ought not to insist that for a good
many years to come they should
amount to enough to pay the interest
on the investment of 100000, 900
which the United States has made in
the construction of the canal. We
ought not to do this, first, because the
benefits to be derived by the United
States from this expenditure are not
to be measured solely by return
upon the Investment.
My own impression is that the tons
ought not to exceed 81 per net ton.
On Jan. /, 1911, the tolls In the SueZ
canal are to be francs and 2S CEN
times for one net ton by Suez canal
measurement, which is modification
OF Danube measurement. A dollar
ton will secure under the figures
above a gross annual income from
the Panama canal OF nearly $1,000
600. rhe cost of maintenance and op-
Grafton is estimated to exceed $3,-
100000.
The next question that arises Is as
to the maintenance, management and
general control of the canal after it's
completion. 1t should be promised
that 1t is an essential part OF our navy
establishment to have the coal. oil
and other ship supplies. a drydock
and repair shops conveniently located
with reference to naval vessels pass
Ing through the canal. Now If the
government for naval purposes Is tc

ences to the navy, and they are con

mercial vessels, there would seem to

Buffalo, N. Y, Aug. 25.-"I feel
it is just a little more my duty to
hunt crooks out of public life because
they happen to be in my own party -
said Theodore Roosevelt early today,
addressing the Elicott club here.
The colonel was guest of honor at
a breakfast given by the club. Fully
500 persons were present and
cheered when he declared he would
keep up his fight for clean politics.
Roosevelt arrived in an automo-
bile, and was driven directly to the
club. He began by discussing the
need of preventing pollution of the
great lakes, gradually shifting to
politics. He assured the members
that he would fight in the coming
New York state Republican conven-
ton.
After the breakfast Roosevelt left
for the west.
Just as We must keep unpolluted
the waters of the Great Lakes" said
Roosevelt as he neared the end of his
address before the club, I'VE must
likewise act in the field of moral,
public and domestic life. We must
see that things are unpolluted at
their source. l believe in pure gov
ernment, and in this belief I do not
recognize party distinctions.
Men must keep their eyes fixed
in distrust above all things on the
men who inveigh against the honesty
of one another. Distrust the dema-
gogue who does not see crookedness
in grating labor leaders, distrust
him who sees crookedness in the poor
alone and overlooks the financier at
the head of a corporation Do not
let man thinR he is to be pitied be-
cause he has listened to the voice of
a corrupt financier. My experience
is that man who goes wrong while
employed by corporation is crooked
at the start and he will just as quick
ly when backed into a corner, black
mail that corporation. You are not
going to get honesty unless you in
sist that man show honesty to all. ,
81 will fight for the rights of the
big man as well as the small man,
and will fight for the rights of the
small man as hard as for the big"

BANKING HOUSE IN DANvILLe FAILS
1t Was Founded BY a Former Freder'
icksburger.

The banking house of Johnston
& Cheek, Of Danville, has failed
with deposits of $4,000. 1t is
claimed the assets amount TO $780,
900 and the bank will pay out.
The owners, Charles l.. Velland
and Edmund b. Meade. assigned all
their real estate, including homes
and personal property, to the trus-
tees for the benefit of the credi-
tors.
The failure of the bank was
brought about by the announce
ment by attorneys representing the
Sutherlin e. Meade Tobacco Co.,
Inc, that this company was insol-
vent. This concern was largely in
debted TO Johnston & Cheek. with
practically no assets. which. coup
led with the recent failure of Swain
& Wyllie, tobacconists, precipi-
tated the crash.
This bank was the Oldest in Dam

THE PRICE OF PEACE

There has been no little complaint
and criticism throughout this coun-
try of the vast expenditure of this
government in the maintenance of its
army and navy, and in the construc-
ton of battleships, purchase Of equip
ment, &c. and these complaints have
not been made entirely without Just
cause. Now comes the charge.
backed up by presumably competent
authority, that this country is total
ly unprepared for war, should war
come, and that the army and navy
are inadequate in practically all re-
spects. If this is true it is very evil
dent that in order to keep this coun-
try on a perpetual war footing, such
as is attempted by the greater
European nations. still greater eX-
penditure Of money for this pur-
pose is necessary. and furthermore
that the amount of expenditure
must be constantly increased as time
goes on. The worst feature of the
case is that there will be no end to
this increased and ever increasing
expenditures, as far as any one can
now see. Time. instead of curing
the evil, increases it, and will con-
tinue to increase it until We reach
the deplorable condition of some Of
our European brethren, taxed to
death to support the military. Mr..
Carnegie has donated SlO.0OO,OOO to
advance the cause of universal peace.
This looks like purchasing peace at
a considerable price, as far as he Is
concerned, but the price as far as
the people are concerned, were 1t a
million times that amount, would
be cheap, if the present method of
maintaining peace by large armies
and navies is maintained for any
length of time.

THE PENSION LIST

From the latest statistics prepared
BY the Pension Bureau in connec-
ton with this years pension bill 1t
appears that at this date. forty-tve
years after the close of the Civil
War. there are almost one million
pensioners on the rolls 1t is clearly
evident from this stupendOus num-
Der of government benefclaries that
the number of soldiers in the Federal
army was far in excess of what is
now claimed or else the government
is being annually defrauded. No
man, North or South, objects to a
pension for real soldier, but all
fair minded men object to this whole
sale padding of the pension rolls and
an investigation would turn up more
graft than has ever before been
shown in this country.
