PANAMA CANAL BILL

Washington, D. C.-"There is moth
ing to submit to arbitration in the
Panama canal matter" was the force
full way in which Uncle Joe" Cannon,
ex-speaker of the house of represent
atives, characterized the situation
growing out of the recent canal legis-
lation, previous to leaving for his home
in Danville, ILL.,, where he will begin
his campaign for re-e,c elton to the
siXty-third congress.
'All this talk about submitting the
section of the Panama canal bill,
which does not happen to please our
British cousins, to the Hague tribunal,
is all buncombe,' continued the old
wheel horse of repub icanism.
"If the canal had been built by the
money of foreign nations, including
our proportion of the Obligation, arbi
tration of controverted questions
would undoubtedly have been the
proper procedure, but as the canal
has been built by our own money
upon our own soil, as much ours as
the District of Columbia is ours, this
talk of sending the questions in con
troversy to the Hague for final adj
Indication is the rankest nonsense
The days of altruism have not yet
dawned, nor will they as long as we
have to fight the nations of the world
for commercial supremacy.
1.-THE English are doing for their
ships that pass through the Sue2
canal just as we propose to do for
ours. The government of Great Brit
ain RENTS the toll on British ships
locking through the Suez. We pro
pose to reach the same result in an
other way so far as the Panama ca
nal is concerned, by giving free pass
age to our ships engaged in coast
wide trade, instead of renting the
tax as England, Germany and France
do for their ships using the Sue2
canal. The result is the same in both
cases. Having nothing to arbitrate it
is to be hoped the state department
will so inform the government OF
Great Britain in a manner that will
forever put a stop to the claims that
we are violating the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty"

A Few Thoughts on High Living.

Do YOU wear silk stockings? 1t is
a foolish question to ask; but we know
you do. The short, narrow skirts re-
veal that and perhaps other phases OF
woman's lace trimmed underwear,
which she would fain conceal; but
fashion must be followed, no matter
what it may display. Your mother
never had a pair in her life, and you
were brought up on twenty-five cent
cotton ones and taught to put in new
feet when the old ones were past darn
ing; but in these days OF sensitive
feelings and low shoes darned hosiery
is an impossibility And when one
can get silk stockings for Twenty-Five
cents at regular sales and little less
perhaps on bargain days, one wonders
that cotton hose are made at all. VI
course you don't get the twenty-nine
cent grade if you can possibly help it;
and silk does not wear we'll, but is so
much more comfortable, or it makes
one feel so much better, particularly
when ones neighbors and even ones
maids, the waitress at the restaur-
ants and the clerk in the stores all
flaunt gossamer cad insteps in your
face, so to speak. Under such cir
cumstances it is quite to be expected
that even our babies socks must be
of the finest silk. Not changing the
subject although it may seem to do so
do you faint or go into Mysteries when
YOU see a telegraph messenger at your
door? Why, no, to be sure. Your
mother would have known that death
news or some disaster awaited her in
side that dreaded yellow envelope
But times have changed. This is
probably night letter form John en-
planning that he is too busy to write.
So, being a little sleepy on account
of the late hour the bridge game
held last night, you reply to his mess
age with similar one. Time savers
these night messages, but they beat
you out of twenty-three cents every
time you use one instead OF SLOW
going two-cent letter by mail. You
will remember hearing your grand
father say that on one occasion a pass
ing neighbor shouted to him from the
roadway: "Ha, Uncle George. There's
a letter in the postoffice for you. l
would have brought it out to you, but
the postage was twenty-five cents
Then in haste quarter OF dollar
was taken out of the boarding bag
and the Oldest son sent to the office to
pay the revenue and bear the expect
ed treasure home where it would be
read and re-read by the family. The
list of this particular letter was:

his family of seven children are a
movin' out to 'Elinoy' and will stop
and make a visit with you for week

is ready to ask: Gould peo-
pie live on their earnings in such

headed grandfather, who had survived

THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY.

Some of the enemies of the News

McGILL RANCH HOUSE BURNS.

The McGill ranch house at McGil,
was totally destroyed by fire, We'd
nesday morning. The alarm was
sounded soon after s o'clock, and
the Shelter fire department as we'll
as many volunteers, were soon at the
ranch, and had two hose lines laid
in record time. The flames, how
ever, had made sucn Roadway that
the house could not be saved and
ii was 500 fiat. The fremen pre-
vented the spread of the fire to
adjoining buildings, saving the barn
and other structures.
There Is a general expression of
regret at the loss of the ranch
house, which was a landmark, ante
dating by many years, the smelling
plant and railroad. 1t was original
ly built at great expense, by w. n.
McGill, for a home, and most of the
material used in construction had
10 be hauled overland, for two hun
dred miles or more. With the adj
vent of the big smelter and mill n
terprise, the property was sold to the
mining company, and the ranch house
has since been useo for dormitory
purposes, under the management of
Morris Click.
At the time OF the fire more
than twenty employees of the works
roomed there and most of them
lost all their clothing and personal
belongings that were In the rooms.
The house occupied a picturesque To-
cation. surrounded by grass and trees
and was a favorite resort. The cause
of the fire is unknown.
