Canal oils.

Another question which arises for con-
sideration and possible legislation is the
question of tolls in the canal This ques-
ton is necessarily affected by the probable
tonnage which will go through the canal
It is all a matter of estimate, but one of
the government commission in 1900 investi-
gated the question and made a report He
concluded that the total tonnage of the
vessels employed in commerce that could
Use the isthrnian canal in 1914 would
amount 10 6.S43,s05 tons net register, and
that this traffic would increase 81 per cent
in each decade that it was not probable
that all the commerce included in the totals
would at once abandon the routes al pres
ent followed and make use of the new
canal. and that ii might take some time
perhaps two years. to readjust trade with
reference TO the new conditions which the
canal would establish. He did not include,
moreover, the tonnage Of war vessels al
though II is 10 be inferred that such YES
sells would make considerable use Of the
canal. In the matter Of tolls he reached
the conclusion that a dollar net ton would
not drive business away from the canal
but that higher rate would do so.
In determining what the tolls should be
we certainly ought not 10 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 construc-
ton Of the canal. We ought not TO do this.
first because the benefit to be derived by
the United States from this expenditure is
not 70 be measured solely by return upon
the Investment. If IL were, then the con-
str1lction might well have been left 10 pri-
vate enterprise. II was because an sde-
q1Iate' return upon the money invested could
not he expected Immediately, or III the near
future. and because there were peculiar
political advantages 10 he derived from
the construction Of the canal that it neces-
sariIv fell TO the government 10 advance
tf,a money and r,erforrn the work.

DEPART MEMT
OF JUSTICE.

Inc uutieS OF the department OF JUSttcS
have been greatly increased by legislation
OF Congress enacted in the interest of the
general eIfare of the people and extend
ing its activities into avenues plainly with
in its constitutional Jurisdiction. DUt which
it has not been thought wise or necessary
for the general government heretofore to
occupy.
am glad 70 say that under the appTo-
priaticns made for the department the At
torney General has so improved its organi-
Zation that vast amount of litigation OF
civil and criminal character has been dis
posed of during the current year. This viii
explain the necessity for slightly inCreas-
ing the estimates for the expenses of the
department. His report shows the re-
coveries made on behalf of the government.
of duties frauduIentiy withheld. public
lands improperly patented, fines and penal
ties for trespass. prosecutions and convic-
tions under the antitrust law and prosecu-
tious under the interstate commerce law
invite especial attention 10 the prosecu-
tions under the federal law of the so-called
bucket shops" and OF those schemes 10
defraud i'll which the use of the mail is an
essential part of the fraudulent conspiracy,
prosecutions which have saved ignorant
and weak members Of the public and are
saving them hundreds of millions of dollars
The violations of the antitrust law present
perhaps the most important litigation be
fore the department. and the number of
cases filed shows the activity OF the gov
ernment IN enforcing that statute.

Public Buildings
IN our public buildings We still suffer
from the method Of appropriation which
has been 50 much criticised in connection
with our rivers and harbors- Some method
should be devised Tor controlling the sup

Of the building plans and sites with view

POSTOFFICE
DEPARTMENT.
Postal Savinos Banks.

Al its last session Congress made pTovt-
sion for the establishment OF savings banks
by the PostofiCe Department ~ this gov
ernment by which under the general con-
tTo! Of trustees. consisting Of the Postmas-
ter General. the Secretary Of the Treasury
anc! the Attorney General. the system could
be begun in few cities and towns. and
enlarged 70 cover within its operations as
many cities and towns and as large a part
OF the country as seemed wise The initi-
alton and establishment of such q system
has required great deal Of study on the
part of the experts in the Postoffice and
Treasury departments. but system has
now been devised which is believed 10 be
more economical and simpler in its opera
ton than any similar system abroad. Ar
rangements have been perfected so that
savings banks will be opened in some cities
AMI towns on January 1, and there will be
a gradual extension OF the benefits Of the
plan 10 the rest of the country
Wipine Out Of Postal Deficit
A. I have said. the Postoffice Depart
ment is a great business department and
I am glad to note the fact that under it's
present management principles of business
economy and efficiency are being applied.
Fer many years there has been deficit in
tii,, operations of the Postoffice Department
Which has been met by appropriation from
the Treasury. The appropriation estimated
f-r last year from the Treasury over and
above the receipts of the department was
81 500, 600. I am glad TO record the fact
that of that S17.5Oa. 600 estimated for. Sill
500 600 were savei and returned to the
Treasury. The personal efforts of the
Postmaster General secured the effective
cooperation of the thousands of postmas-
ters and other postal officers throughout
tie country in carrying out his plans of
reorganization and retrenchment. The re-
suit is that the Postmaster General has
been able 10 make his estimate OF expenses
for the present year so low as TO keep
within the amount the postal service is
expected 10 earn. II is gratifying 10 re-
port that :he reduction i'll the deficit has
been accomplished without any cttrtaiI-
ntent Of postal facilities. On the contrary
TIE service has been greatly extended dur
ing the year in ali it's branches. prin-
cip1e which the Postmaster General has
recommended and sought 10 have enforced
in respect 10 all appointments has been
that those appOintees who have rendered
good service should be reappOinted This
has greatly strengthened the interest of
poStma asters throughout the country in
maintaining efficiency and economy in their
Offices because they believed generally that
this would secure for them a further ten
