Furthermore, it is the distinct
intention of the people of the
United States to prevent Japan or
Japan's ally, Great Britain, from
ever using the canal in opposition
to the interests or the wishes of
the people of the United States,
who are clearly the constructors
and proprietors of the canal. :.
President Taft has done well to
reiterate the Monroe doctrine. He
has done better to declare the gov
ernment's intention to fortify the
Panama canal.
In view of the aggressive and
interfering attitude of the allied
nations Of Great Britain and
Japan, Mr.. Roosevelt as well as
Mr.. Taft deserves the commenda-
ton of all patriotic citizens for his
efforts in behalf of fortified ca
nal. MR.. ROOSEVELT WAS
AS ENTIRELY RIGHT IN HIS
PANAMA CANAL SPEECH
as he was entirely wrong in his
London guildhall speech.
It is to be hoped that all citi-
zens, even the most devoted Dem
ocrats, viii commend and support
the inspiring attitude Of these
leading Republican statesmen,
since the nations interest and the
nations honor must rise superior

all reasonable indications, VIII be an
improvement on its predecessors
and both branches OF 1t will probably
be organized by honest and decent
men for honest and decent purposes
II Is an excellent idea to mold pre-
liminary conferences and reach an
agreement with reference to funda
fental and necessary reforms in pro
cedure and organization. Discussion
and intelligent planning at this stage
will obvlate much delay and conflict
after the election, and, moreover, pro-
posed concrete reforms doing away
with scandalous abuses will furnish
very practical arguments in the cam
paign.
The call for the conference OF Re
publican progressives just issued
NAMES two important reforms. One
relates to the power and functions
OF house committee, the other to the
pay roll. Certainly the rules should
be revised so as to make 1t absolutely
impossible for chairman or even ma
jorities of committees to ''chloro-
form" measures or juggle with them
nfter the manner in which the wret
cned Beck, for example, juggled with
the merit bill. The committees should
be the servants and instruments Of
the legislature, not it's masters. Bills
should be reported without undue de
lay and given fair chance. o.
course, silly and trivial bills will con
tinue to be offered, and the considera
ton OF them will involve waste o
time. But at the worst less tim,
will be wasted under the propose,

Any sensible shipper can see this at

When a train runs smoothly and

AS for that matter, many shippers
have failed, also, through no discrim
