Afforded the electors in casting their
votes may defeat the will Of the peo-
pie" say the judges. "as thoroughly
as restrictions which the courts would
hold to operate as a ACKNOWLEDGMENT
of voters" So all the labor and time
spent upon framing and passing the
Levy ELECTION bill go for nothing.
a year G Mfr. Roosevelt told the
New Workers that the success OF the
Democratic state ticket meant the
"enthronement" Of Tammany in the
states capitol: and the New York
World contradicted him-contradicted
him. as We remember 1t. with a good
deal Of heat . That Democratic con-
temporary now frankly owns up that
it was wrong and Mr.. Roosevelt right.
Since January 1, II admits. Tammany's
MIR. Murphy has been running things
at Albany-nanring the legislatures
presiding officers. naming its commit
tees. naming the Democratic candi-
date for United States senator. die
tating legislation. and marking for
political destruction the in~subordinate
members who have not
jumped to obey orders. The recant-
ing and penitent World does not stop
there. 1t o e on thus:
If n Democratic assembly is
elected next month. it will be
Murphy's vindication. Conditions
at Albany will be worse than ever.
The boss Of Tammany can right
fully accept his victory as a vote
of confidence. He will control
thN ~NSx 1@-f
slutely than he controlled this. He
can pass another Levy election
law adroitly drawn to evade the
decision Of the II Of appeals.
He can pass the New Yok charter
which he dared not attempt to
force through this legislature ON
the eve of election. He can pass
the other Tammany measures
which were discreetly held back
until he could acquire n new lease
of power at the polls. He can
control the party nominations for
state office. regardless Of a pre-
tended Statewide" direct pri-
mary law. He can " the dele

campaign. and can decide the
presidency.

A JOLT FOR T.ANfsfANY.

The New Workers. are still shaking
hands with themselves over the ad-
journment Of their legislature, and
now they have fresh cause for self
congratulation. Among the laws pass
sd by those remarkable legislators
during that nine months stay at Al
bany was what is known as the Levy
election Law. 1t provided that the
name of no candidate should appear
more than once on the official ballot.
That was to help Tammany out at the
election of November z. this year, in
New York city. 1t provided farther
that, in towns having less than 5000
inhabitants, voters who did not vote
last year must personally register this
year. That was to trap needless up
state Republican farmers into dis
~franchising themselves. Now the
New York court Of appeals. whose
decision is final, has decided that both
these provisions of the Levy election
law are unconstitutional. The court

The presidents statement thai the
Panama canal will probably be opened
by July 1, 1913, emphasizes the fact
that no time Is to be lost in the fixing
of tolls. if the commercial interests Of
the world are to be consulted. Traffic
arrangements affecting a worlds
highway are intricate and tedious in
the making. and much time is neces-
sarily consumed in perfecting plans
for new lines. II the canal is to do
list expected work in increasing the
facilities of American commerce, es-
pecially between the coasts of this
country, should fix the charg-
es at an early date.
A strong demand will be made for
h free passage Of American ships
through the canal, or at least for a re-
mission of all tonnage dues . 1t is
tentatively proposed that the tonnage
charge shall be 81 a ton. somewhat
under the rate through the Suez cam
al. This rate. it is expected, will at
tract much business tina now flows
through Suez. But American ship
ping will ask that even this 81 rate
ships. 1t is reasoned that the canal
is intended primarily to benefit the
United States in peace and war. and
that the United States can and should
favor its own shipping.
In opposition to this demand is
heard a protest from foreign ship in
%terests. which hold that the Hay
Pauncefote treaty grants the same
rights to foreign shipping as are
claimed by the United States in re-
spect Of canal charges. The clause
in the treaty upon which this claim
Is based is as follows:
The canal shall be free and
open to the vessels Of m
and of war OF all nations observ-
ing these rules, on terms Of entire
equality, so that there shall be no
discrimination against any such
nation, or its citizens or subjects.
in respect of the conditions or
charges of traffic. or otherwise.
Such conditions and charges of
traffic shall be just and equitable.
The answer to this claim by advo-
cate of free American ships is that
the United States. as the builder AMI
owner of the canal, Is recognized as
having a right to do as 1t pleases TO-
"o1o III o"H anu Cannot
be charged with discrimination so
long as it collects tolls from foreign
ships on terms Of entire equality, and
so long as these charges are just and
equitable.
This view is borne out to some ex-
tent by the fact that in the Clayton
Bulwer treaty the canal was to be
open to foreign vessels. while in the
later treaty this provision Is omitted.
The prohibition against terrifying the
canal having been omitted in the la
ter treaty. the right to fortify was as
serted and conceded. BY the same
reasoning, since the provision impos-
Ing like terms on foreign and
American vessels is omitted, 1t is held
that the right to pass American YES
sells free may be conceded SO long
as the vessels Of all foreign nations
are treated alike.
