canal tolls. He says
Tie assertion of such a right presented
a broad question Of national eXpediency.
which should not be determined except
upon careful study of the conditions and
deliberate conclusion that the national
interest would be furthered by securing
this advantage to American vessels at
the expense of the national Treasury.
The Secretary says he caused an in
vestigation TO be made into the subject
by Professor Emery r. Johnson, the ex-
pert engaged by the department as Com
missioner upon Panama Traffic and Tolls,
and that his report was that a repayment
or a remission OF canal tolls was not
necessary to enable American vessels en-
gagged in coastwise trade successfully 10
meet such competition as they would be
subject to. either from the transconti-
mental railroads or foreign competitors.
The Secretary says this conclusion was
based on the tolls and business of the
Panama Railroad, and the result of the
conclusion was presented 10 the Com
mttee on lnteroceanc Canals of the
Senate by him before the Panama Canal
act was passed. and he recommended
that no preference in canal tolls be given
our coastwise vessels. He renews hts
recommendation that such remission of
tolls be not granted and the act be
amended TO that effect, or at least leave
II open for action of the President after
the canal is In operation.

Land Investigations Here
This Week.

The Deming country has been en-
tertaining royalty" this week, that
is, our agricultural possibilities
have attracted the attention of one
of the kings of the world of inven-
ton, A. p. Warner, whose brain
devised the little machine that
tells, with absolute accuracy, just
how fast buzz wagon is speeding.
The world knows the name of
Warner like it does Edison, because
he has csrystallized his ideas and
has, by intelligent publicity, let the
world know about it.
Mr.. Warmers head factory is
at Beloit, Wis, where an army OF
men are putting out hundreds of
the little clocks" every day.
A double page ad in the Satur-
day Evening Post. costing for
tune, looks to Mr.. Warner like the
GRAPHlC's cent.a-word column to a
local advertiser. But he is getting
results and doing a worldwide bus
mess.
These facts are of interest to any
intelligent American citizen, but to
the residents of our beautiful MINI
bres Valley they are of more than
passing interest. as it shows to the
= world that we are attracting to our
