Inconvenience in handling the mails
from particular localities is being ex-
perienced on account of general use
OF adhesive stamps other than United
States postage stamps.
In view of the trouble experienced
from the use of Red Cross stamps
during the last Christmas holiday
period, Postmaster General Hitchcock
issued a general order that no adhes-
i've stamps except United States post
age stamps should be attached to the
address side of a letter or package.
Tens of thousands of stamps now
are being used. including Panama Ex-
position stamps, various state exposi-
ton stamps, and what are known as
the Mcnamara legal defense fund
stamps, authorized by the American
Federation of Labor.
This order will eliminate from the
mails. absolutely, the Red Cross stamp
and the Mcnamara defense fund stamp
because on their faces they are called
stamps"
This order hits the Mcnamara de-
Tense fund a heavy blow. and it looks
a little queer that, although the Gin
convenience" of the extra stamps has
been going on for years, it wasn't alb
solutely necessary to rule them out
until the ironworkers' association be-
gan to use them.

The Navy and Peace Treaties.


The most significant thing about
the presidents review OF the feet In
New York harbor was the fact that
he had Just returned from continent
tai tour on which he preached uni
veFsal peace and obtained probably
enough senatorial pledges to insure
the ratification of his international
arbitration treaties at the coming ses-
sion. OF congress.
This country is rapidly getting
away from the delusion that the
maintenance Of an adequate army
and navy necessarily means warfare,
or that international arbitration
means immediate and complete world
peace, This is the nightiest assem-
biage OF American battleships any
president ever reviewed --ninety-nine
in all. But to appreciate It's full sig
niflcance one must look behind this
formidable array of lighting strength
and note that the same nation COM
handing 1t also is taking the lead In
the movement to abolish war.
Yet the United States is second,
not first, In naval power. Great
Britain leads. Nor. much as Is being
said IN depreciation OF our rapid naval
building, are we outbuilding every
other nation. Both Germany and
France are now building warships
faster than we are. How, then, can
II be argued that we should cease to
build? OF course, there is no serioue
purpose OF that sort on the part OF
the government. President Taft took
occasion to say In reviewing this
great fleet on the Atlantic that he
proposed to urge congress to order
two super-dreadnaughts a year up to
the time the Panama canal was actu-
ally In full operation, and after that
one year would do. for the canal
would double the efficiency OF the
navy. If the government had taken
the advice Of those who urged leaving
the canal unfortified It's aid to the
navy would be little.

Government Of Canal Zone.

Approaching completion OF the
Panama canslsbrings a vast amount
of new work TO be done by the Amer
lean government. Congress and the
executive will have their hands full
for some time TO come providing for
the new territory and its government,
TO say nothing OF the regulation and
conduct Of the canal, itself, Il will
not matter whether the United States
decides to throw open for immediate
settlement the canal zone or hold Il

minlstration of justice through spe-
cial judicial power, entirely indepen-
dent OF the military and civil authori-
ties. must be met.
Not the least, but among the first
and most important OF all tasks to be
performed, Is that OF arranging the
system or schedule OF canal tolls.
This must be taken up by congress
this winter, for the reason that until
these tolls are promptly decided upon
ship and commercial companies will
be retarded in adapting their plans
to At into those OF the canals man
agement. All bills that have dealt
with canal matters In congress have
contemplated leaving this matter OF
the tolls to the president, vesting him

The Water Works Decision.

The decision OF the circuit court Of
appeals Is that the city must take the
water works at the appraised price Of
$6,263. 295.49, but need not pay the
interest claimed by the water COM
pany in excess Of the net earnings
for the last five years.
Whether the city must pay any
other items in addition to the APP
praisement price, and, II so, how
much, will depend on the wording
Of the decree when entered.
Just how much the water company
loses by this decision, as against the
Sanborn decision thus overruled, win
probably be known only to it's off
GERS, but evidently the water COM
pany is not getting so much the worst
of Il.
The result Of the five years Of liti-
cation since the appraisers reported,
so far as the water company is con-
cerned, is TO bring the city to accept
the plant with apparent eagerness at
the very figure which at that time
and all along was loudly denounced
as outrageously excessive and never
TO be paid except under compulsion.
Looking backward, II is doubtful
whether the city has gained anything
by fighting the appraisement Bonds
could then have been floated at 4 per
cent and the interest charge for five
years on $6,5OO,OOO would have
been $1,30O,000. In the meanwhile
the water company has been paying
per cent on nearly s5,O0O,OO0 of its
securities, aggregatlng S1,25O,000,
irrespective of stockholders' profits,
which must have been substantial
at least more than enough to offset
taxes that would have been lost II
will be interesting to have more
exact computations when actual set
Elements are made.
In the meantime. the legal battle
has been so long drawn out that our
people will welcome relief from II IL
the end is really now In sight.
