SHAM ECONOMY, HOUSE BE-
GINNING IN WRONG PLACE
Secretary Meyer Justified in Condemna-
ton of House on Their Action
On Battleships

The Pocatello Tribune approves the
attitude OF Secretary Meyer In his
condemnation Of the Democrats on
the Battleship matter in the following
language:
Secretary Meyer is justified in his
condemnation of the Democratic
House for declaring, in caucus
against the construction of two bat.
tie ships year. Even with con.
tinuous program of two battle ships
annually" says the secretary, 'the
United States would year hence be
n little behind its present effective
strength. for in another year four of
our present battle ships will become
noneffective" The Democrats cut off
naval construction in the name of
economy. Very properly the secretary
calls this costly economy.
A little more of the same sort of
economy is shown in the cuts in the
army appropriation bill, by which
there will be pretense of saving
S2,000,O00 or 100000 a year. The
effectiveness of the army will be di
unfinished however, and the reduction
in outlay will be a waste instead of
u saving. Persons who stand close
TO the president say he will veto the
bill IL 1t reaches him in anything like
its present shape. The president and
the secretary of war dislike IL, and
IL is understood that most of the Re
publicans will oppose II. The pro-
posed changes have been attached as
rider to the army appropriation bill
because the Democrats who are push
ing them know they are so objection
able to the country that they would
stand no chance of enactment as an
Independent measure. The assumption
of these Democrats. is that the presi.
dent VIII be unwilling to veto the
army appropriation bill and that,
consequently the vicious changes will
be allowed to reach the statute book.
As the president is aware of this
plot, there are good reasons to be-
lieve that he will defeat 1t, even IL
this delays the appropriation bill for
few months.
There is need for economy, but the
Democratic house is, as Secretary
Stimson says, beginning in the wrong

WHAT DOES YOUR MIRROR TELL your

OF all the skin beautifiers we have
had in our store there is none that
we can recommend more highly than
the d. D. d. Prescription.
d. d. d. is such logical remedy
for all kinds of skin trouble and so
scientifically compounded that it
clears up the complexion over night.
D. D. d. is most widely known as
the most reliable treatment for Ecze-
ma, but it has also been found inval-
liable for all kinds of minor skin
troubles. We do not hesitate to give
d. d. d. our special recommendation.
In fact, we are convinced that D. D

South America will sail to New York
via the new waterway
Shipping companies in all parts Of
the world are preparing to take ad-
vantage OF the reductions in sea dis
tances for their regular lines of ships
and shipbuilders from Christiania to
Odessa are fully aware of the fact that
a large business will be done by tramp
ships with the Pacific ports of the
Americas which will carry on business
with European ports by way Of the
Panama canal.
Naval Base-Harbor Utilization.
That Great Britain will need a port
of call, if not a naval base, in the West
Indies for its mercantile and naval
ships when the channels of ocean
trade have been affected by the open
ing of the new canal seems to admit
of no question, and as the haTbor of
Port Royal at Kingston, Jamaica, is
said to be one of the six best harbors
in the world, it is almost certain to be
selected for that purpose. A glance
at map will show that the eastern
end of Jamaica is on a line drawn
from the most eastern part of Cuba
to Colon; and a further examination
of the map will make it apparent that
ships from the Atlantic ports of the
United States and Canada, as well as
most of the vessels from Europe, will
choose the windward passage between
Cuba and Haiti on their voyages to
and from Panama, and will thus pass
within a short distance of Kingston,
which is only $50 miles from Colon.
The position of Jamaica assures it an
increased commercial Importance.
Mr.. Winston Churchill, now First
Lord of the Admiralty, in an address
in 1904, when he was Under Secretary
of State for the Colonies, used the fol-
lowing significant language:
THE opening of the Panama Canal
will make Jamaica a far more splen.
did and far more wealthy state than
anything that has ever been known in
the West Indian Islands,"
Even if dry docks, repair shops,
coaling depots, and general supply
stores are maintained at Panama, it
is to be expected that Great Britain
would have a port of call and ship
yard of it's own for the accommoda-
ton of it's extensive merchant marine
and its warships in Caribbean waters
AS labor is cheap in Jamaica, it is
quite probable that a well-equipped
shipyard with drydocks at Kingston
would be used for repairs by the YES
sells of other nations as well, and it is
also highly probable that ships could
obtain coal and other supplies more
cheaply at Kingston than at Panama,
where it seems almost certain that
much higher wages will have to be
paid than in Jamaica. And it is easy
to think of circumstances arising
which might make it an advantage to
commerce in general to have a we'll
equipped shipyard dry docks, ware
houses and supply stores at Kingston
as well as at Panama.

D. will give relief that no other rem
edy can.
Surely if you have any skin trouble
you should give D. D. D. Prescription
a trial.
Don't delay, for If not promptly
checked, minor skin troubles often
develop into serious disease, difficult
even for D. d. d. to cure.
Better drop into our store anyway

edy. Ask also about d. D. d. Soap,

Comparisons With suez Canal oper
ations.

Comparisons With suez Canal oper-
atoms.
There are other reasons for the
belief that it viii not be many years
before the new canal will develop
business as large as that of the older
one, the traffic through which has
doubled in fifteen years. In 1909
there passed through the Suez Canal
4239 vessels with a net tonnage Of
15,4O7527 tons, the transit receipts
for that year amounting to $23,4S4,351
and the dividends paid being 80 per
cent On its investment of $40 ,352,037
for one-third of the stock of the canal
Great Britain received in interest and
dividends $5,150,577 in the same year
Many more ships would use the canal
if it were not for the great expense
of the tolls charged the rate being
S1.45 per cubic ton measurement Of
the ship for vessels with cargo and %
cents per cubic ton measurement for
vessels in ballast, and $t92 for each
passenger. 1t is not expected that the
tolls to be fixed for the use of the
Panama Canal will be so high, and it
is believed that the lower rates will
largely increase the business of that
waterway, which is sure to be i'm
mense at the start with the prospect
of a considerable augmentation as the
worlds commerce increases and the
countries already mentioned are de-
veloped.
Mileage Comparisons Of ocean Routes.
That a large proportion of the
worlds ocean traffic will soon be car
ried in ships that will pass through
the West Indies will readily be seen
by a study of the reduction in sea dis
tances to be brought about by the
opening of the Panama Canal. There
will then be from New York to all
American Pacific ports north of Pan
ANA a uniform reduction of S415
miles and to such ports south of Pan
anna a uniform reduction of about s.
600 miles. The corresponding reduc-
tons from Liverpool and Antwerp will
be about 6OOO and 1900, respectively.
From Hamburg to San Francisco the
reduction will be 5000 miles.
Between New York and Yokohama
the reduction will be 1929 miles, and
that Japanese city will be brought
nearer to New York than Liverpool
by 1905 miles. Shanghai will be 1929
miles nearer to New York. Sydney,
Australia, will be 1906 miles nearer to
New York, and the distance between
the two cities will be 1882 miles less
than the distance between Sydney and
Liverpool. Wellington, New Zealand,
will be 2542 miles nearer New York,
and the distance between them will
be 1853 miles less than between Well
ington and Liverpool. Between New
Zealand and Europe there will be an
average saving of 1900 miles. British
ships which now pass through the
Suez Canal on their way to China and
Japan and thence to Vancouver, Sc
/ attic and San Francisco, will return
/ to their home ports by way of the
Panama canal when return cargoes
can be obtained in those cities. Ships

Zealand, and from Pacific ports of
