The magnitude and intricacy of the
engineering problems connected with the
building Of the Panama Canal are not
the only obstacles with which the en-
gineers on the Zone have to contend.
One of the greatest difficulties that has
stood in the way of the completion of
the Culebra cut is the tremendous slides
of rock and earth that still interfere
with the work. To aid the army ex-
perts now engaged in the operation, the
Isthmian Canal Commission has en-
ployed Prof. James F. Kemp, head of
the Department of Geology at Columbia
University, to 60 to Panama to lend his
assistance. He will advise not only how
to avoid the slides, if possible, but also
will give attention to the outbursts of
gases along the Canal cut. They were
The Republican journal., 1912-08-22

first reported to be OF Voicanlc origin
and this caused great uneasiness. Re-
Gently other causes have been assigned.
The canal officials have always denied
that the landslides or the gaseous out
bursts indicated any permanent obstacle,
but this employment Of man whose
life has been devoted to study of such
questions indicates that the difficulties
are more serious then they are willing to
admit.
1.-THE United States government does
not offer, and never has offered, and so
far as known never will offer, reward
or bonus for the discovery of workable
tin mine in the United States" An
nouncement to this effect has been sent
broadcast throughout the United States
by the Geological Survey. to stop a
steady flood of letters making inquiry
about such reward Someone started
rumor that the government had offered
reward for the discovery of a source of
tin supply in the United States. This
rumor will not down, but seems to ex-
pand and reach greater proportions each
day. Officials of the Geological Survey
have been greatly harrassed, and as
these communications must be answered,
clerical work is being done to get rid of
the pile. Where or how this rumor
started or how it attained such wide
spread proportions will perhaps always
remain a mystery. There are many
thousands ready to take up 'Will-O-
They isp" search, however, if the Geo
logical Survey will put them on the right
scent.
There is a small cannon mounted at
the northeast entrance Of the War De-
partment, trophy of the Revolution,
which has inscribed upon the plate of its
trunnion the following: Captured at
Yorktown, l775." What is remarkable
about this error-for Yorktown was not
captured until 1781-is this: that for
half score of years this little gun has
SCOOQ dC lne uOoF through WHICH nave
passed more officers of the Army and
Navy than any other door in the country;
for it is the most frequented entrance to
the building. Yet in all that time, none
of them have detected the error.
Another claim to distinction held by the
little gun is that it was undoubtedly the
first cannon ever captured by the United
States, having been taken by Benedict
Arnold in the attack on st. John, Cana
da, during his expedition in ITS.
Though unwittingly placed in its posi-
ton as the first trophy to be seen by a
visitor to the Temple of the War God, it
is a post of honor to which its history
we'll entities it.

The CANDIDATES FOR GOVERNOR

Candidate Plaisted would have free
rum in all the cities, and plain local
option in the towns, which do not know
enough to handle free rum. He would
fill all the Maine Offices with his own
henchmen and heelers, and then proceed
to create new offices and new commits
sions to add to the burdens of the Maine
taxpayers.
Candidate Haines would raise the pro-
hibition banner in every school district
of Maine; he would enlist the women and
children in the fight for clean living and
rigid economy. He would keep voters
out of reeking jails before and after cleo
ton, and would punish the rum seller,
rather than the weak and deluded victims
of the greed of the saloons. He would
have better roads, not alone for auto
mobile riding in the summer, but for
farm and for truck-hauling at all seasons
of the years. Bangor News.

The spirit of Americanism was ex-
emplifed to remark able degree during
the debates in the Senate on the Panama
Canal bill and on the final vote on those
sections of the measure which excited
the liveliest possible controversy. The
Upper branch went ahead and perfected
the bill in many important particulars,
especially with reference to railroad
owned vessels using the Canal, free tolls
for American vessels engaged in the
coast-wise and foreign trade, and per-
hitting vessels whose stock is owned
principally in this country to fly the
American flag and be given American
register. Of course some of these fea-
lures may be modified in conference,
but so pronounced was the vote in both
Senate and House of the main features
of the bill that the conferees would be
flying in the face of sharp criticism
should they endeavor to write out of the
bill Its distinguishing characteristic, the
Canal primarily for America, and Ameri-
cans for the Canal.
