The Canal Nearing Completion.

The optimism which inspires the esti-
mate that the Panama canal will be
ready for opening by January l. 1914, is
founded upon the real condition of the
work 1t is not received with incredulity
by the public. On the contrary. there is
every disposition throughout the country
to accept the statement of Col. Goethals
that the canal will be ready for use in a
little more than two years. which is a
full year ahead of the original forecast.
Not even the occasional reports of land
slips at various points on the canal cut
have shaken the confidence of the Ameri-
can people in the ability of the engineers
to construct this work successfully and
with the least delay.
From the beginning of the assumption
Of the canal work by the United States
every detail has been handled with the
precision of good organization. First the
government undertook to correct the ira
ditionally insantary conditions, and so
great was the success achieved in that
respect that much of the skepticism with
which the enterprise was viewed was
removed and spirit of confidence ap-
peared. When the work was placed defl-
nitely in the hands of the army officers
there was every disposition on the part
of the country to look for satisfactory
results.
1t is highly gratifying that practically
throughout the prosecution of this work
there has been feeling of perfect faith
in the integrity of the American repre-
sentatives in the Canal Zone. In an enter
prise of this magnitude there is always the
possibility of leakage and irregularity,
but so far as appears at present the dig
ging of the canal has been pressed with
virtually no dishonesty on any account.
Compared with the history of the French
company's work in Panama. the Ameri-
can record In this respect Is most i'm
pressive. There has been nothing in
the least comparable with or suggestive
of the graft and corruption that marked
virtually every stage of the ostensible
work of constructing the canal under the
original auspices.
In the annual report just submitted the
commission deals with the question of
slides and breaks as being merely one af-
fecting the ultimate amount of excava-
ton and in no wise the cause of appre-
hension on the part of those familiar with
the work. 1t has been frequently as
have menaced the integrity Of the canal.
but in truth they have been incidental
| to the enterprise and have been in almost
every instance discounted by expectation.
Congress should no longer neglect the
duty of fixing the tolls to be charged by
! the United States for the use of the
| canal. Ships will be passing through in a
| little more than two years and no time is
to be lost In establishing the rates II
| this legislation Is secured at the next ses-
sion of Congress 1t will be only in time
to notify all future users OF the canal in
season to enable them to compute the
costs Of the interoceanic route. 1t is
| expected that with the opening of the
Panama canal will come material
changes in the courses of the world :
commerce, and it is desira BILE that as much
time as possible be given to prepare for
| this readjustment.

The powers cannot afford to permit

the revolution has passed the point OF

powers in China should be upon the basis
