An AMERICAN ACHIEVEMENT
Pueblo chicftain.

In spite of men that come and co. in
spite of lnndslides and political up
hcavals, there Is one job that goes stead
lily forward. There Is no halt to the
work of construction on the Panama
canal That greatest work OF the cen-
fury, naugurated by President Mcliin-
ley, vigorously prosecuted by President
Roosevelt, bids fair to reach practical
completion before the end of President
Tafts first term. Under the supervi-
sion of Colonel Cocktails wonders are
being accomplished. That quiet and
little known army man, taking IN the
work that had daunted and baffled the
highly paid engineers who had pre-
coded him, now has the work 50 well in
hand that the end is In sight He is
able even to predict the completion of
the job by the first OF December 1913.
There is cause for congratulation in the
fact that the work Is going forward
so efficiently. without the slightest sug-
gestion of scandal. The United states
suffers from the accusation. in Europe,
of being purely mercenary country
corrupt in politics. permeated with
graft. In the building of the canal.
however, America is doing, without
graft, something that tho graftcrs OF
France prevented de Lesscps from ac-
compishing. Another thing: 1t Is the
American people themselves who are
building the canal. I'll your job my job
We are often told that the government
Is inefficient; that private parties or
corporations can do more effective and
better work than the government can
do. Here Is proof to the contrary.
After private corporations had failed:
even after corporation engineers had
given up the task, the United states
government puts plain army man on
the job, and 10, 1t is done! 1t Is
something for which the world has
waited long. 1t Is an accomplishment
in which every American may well take
pride. 1t shows what the people can
do. 1t Is proof conclusive that the
American government Is essentially
honest; that no work Is too great for it
to accomplish.

TIE VOTING MACHINES.

A few years ago 1t seemed probable
that within Il short time all voting

Oakland proposes to Ito the same, And
yet the desirability of the machine Is as
great as ever ii was. 1t is the best as
surance which the public can have
against stufflng and fraudulent count

count occurs when there is long bal

fraud may be considered safe have

those willing to take the risk. y sinlui-
taneous announcement of the machine
recorded vote in all precincts does
away with the possibilities of fraud in
the count Doubtless machines may
be easily adjusted to register falsely,
but that can be prevented by exporting
and sealing the machines before cleo
ton. Imperfections were sure to be
found In the machines first subjected
to the test of an election, but there
is no doubt whatever that all these
would be remedied as the result of ex-
perience. The breakdown seems to
have been in the practical difficulty OF

This could Re done 81 the food vas uni

This could be done IL the flood was unt-
{ versal in extent, but not fit was only
local.
We think Ewald expresses the s;gnif-
icancc OF the Deluge correctly when he
says that 1t came Sin order to wash
clean the sin-stained earth. to sweep
away the first race OF man, which was
utterly degcnerated in Titanic intoxi-
cation. and TO produce on the renewed
and clennscd earth Il new race made
more refined and wiser by the warn

considers the flood as type of bap-
tism. in which the Earth was cleansed.
| As already stated, 1t may be that we
| have too few data upon which to con-
| str,ict a theory Us to the extent of the
flood, but these are some OF the reasons
that seem 10 preclude the modern idea
! OF n local inundatlon.
The old theory demands an answer to
the question, where did the water come
from in sufticient quantity TO cover the

Alichaclis discusses this question, HIS
idea Is that the interior of the earth's

THE WHEAT SURPLUS.

Commenting on the wheat situation
The Minneapolis Tribune says:
The wheat surplus of the United
States is giving the speculative bears
more concern than either farmers.
millers or Warehousemen. In spite
of the Accommodations ut terminal cen
ters and the lack OF Il broad CONNER
cial demand, prices have shown no
material change for several weeks.
Stocks Of wheat are large, rather e>.
ceptionalIy so for the time of year,
but the greatest effect of this wheat
on the price has already been regis
tered by the hedging sales made at
the time it passed from the farmer to
the Warehuusenlan. The lirmness dis
played by the December future, Il con
trac, that the cash position can hard
ly be called weak. Tenders Of deliv-
cry have been well taken and have
gone, generally. to millers.
Supplies are still coming into sight
freely, but are being absorbed with
ont any appreciate effect upon the
market. Consumption. moderate as
it is at present. is drawing sufficient
ly upon supplies to offset the country
movement to the extent Of not affect
ing the price position adversely. The
receipts in the northwest continue Ii
beral, resulting in increasing stocks
at the two primary markets. AS there
is an actual shortage in spring wheat.
however. and IL longer period to har-
vest there is nothing particularly eN-
cessive in the accumulation.
With domestic prices. however. re-
naming above the e\rortable level,
the home market has got to take care
Of the offerings. The season so far
has been marked by Il limited flour
demand. Stocks are smaller than IL
year ago and the effect of IL broader
trade would be felt Immediately on
the supplies of raw material. The
turn OF the year is expected to enlarge
the consumptive call rs old business
is being cleaned up and buyers are be-
ginning to increase their inquiries for
so day shipments.
In the speculative pit there is evil
dence OF manipulation in absorbing
the floating surplus from day to day.
This wheat is being accumulated
in anticipation of higher prices be-
tween now and next spring.

WHERE BAD EGGS GO.

IN investigation of the egg bust
ness in New York City by the World
has developed that there is an enor-
nous traffic in bad eggs. The World
says it has been carried on for years
with the tacit permission. if not the
active assistance. of men entrusted
with the inspection and care of the
food Of the city"
The eggs. it is said. are sold TO bak-
ers and cake manufacturers who use
them in making "sponge cake, pound
cake. lady fingers and other cake
stutfs that are yellow-hued and made
principally Of eggs No doubt this
will be an unpleasant revelation to
consumers who have been patroniZ-
ing bakeries where decayed eggs are
utilized in order that bakery products
may bring bigger profits.
RIOTS and spots" as these bad eggs
are known n trade parlance. are used
by tannery in the preparation of GER
tain grades of leather, but the tam
ners. the World says. cannot buy the
spoiled eggs any more because they
are in SO much demand for cake man.
ufacture. The bakeries have boosted
the price to II point where the tanners
do not care to purchase. 1t is il pc
culiar and shocking condition of af-
fairs and is one of the results of cold
storage. Eggs are stored away in in
creasing numbers every year. in or
der that the owners may secure high
prices for them. lnavoidablv many
cases of the eggs spoil before Il sale
can be made ut Il satisfactory price.
Then they are sold To dealers in that
sort of truck, who quickly pass them
on to the bakers ut renumerative Jig
ures.

JUDITH GAP, MONTANA
Farm Destroyed By Fire.

s. +. Robinson's barn on his home
stead near Oxford, was totally de-
stroyed by fire Tuesday night. Mr.
Robinson was in the SnOwies at the
time, but Mrs. Robinson, who was
home, discovered the blaze in time to
save some of the livestock.
The fire was undoubtedly Of an in
cendiary origin. and an attempt was
made to also burn the house. How
ever, the sack Of straw which was
placed at one corner Of the dwelling
and ignited, was not sufficient to
cause the building to burn, but only
charred the Notwithstanding.
Mr.. and Mrs. Robinson are among
the most popular and respected citi-
Zens of the Judith Gap district, and
it is a mystery what motive prompted
the party or parties to destroy the
property.
