TIIE \ BILL.

Now there is talk OF adjournment
without passing the Panama canal
bill. II is suggested that the whole
matter should go over Until Decem-
her. in spite of the urgency Of the leg
islation. in spite of the Inconvenience
that will be caused to domestic and
foreign shipping. and in spite Of the
appeals of the president and ana
authorities.
But why should the bill go over? Is
congress so swamped with more i'm
portant legislation hat it cannot ac-
comn7odate the shipping of the world
by giving early notice Of the rules
hat are TO govern the canal? Is there
something moro important than the
Panama canal pending in congress?
Surely IT. cannot be the appropriation
:ills that are in the way. for these
bills themselves have been reckoned
of no Importance whatever. The gov
has heen running without
n appropriation bills since the be-
ginning Of the fiscal year.
Can 1t be that the railroad interests.
which are anxious to make the canal
a n~oncompeting adjunct to the land
lines, prefer that the canal legislation
should So over? Tho house is deter
mined that the canal shall DO free Of
railroad domination. Perhaps by next
December the house would be In q
moro rclenting mood.
1t may be possible that the question
Of free oils for coastwise shipping is
100 embarrassing for the senate to
consider before ncxt winter. The
house IS strongly Cor this proposition,
too. while Il is opposed by some sena-
tors who pay srcat attention 20 the
desires of Canada as voiced by Grea,
Britain. But what is 70 be gained by
waiting? Do senators think the r
test by Great Britain Will have greater
terrors 10 members Of the house mex;
winter than ii has now? Or is il bro.
posed to obtain protests from japan
and Germany to supplement the

1t appears to the onlooker that con.
gross has nothing before it so press.
ing that it could not consider arf
pass the canal bill this week. and pas.
it in the interest Of the United States
at that. But canal legislation, like
legislation to prevent a recurrence o,
the Titanic disaster. Is not politics
