IGNORES
CANAL no EST.
Defies England and Refuses to
Strike From Bill Right of
Free Toll to Americans.

WASHINGTON, Aug. s.-The United
States senate def1ed Great Britain in
her Panama canal protest when, by
vote of Al to II, about midnight last
night it refused to strike from the Pan
anna canal bill the provision exempting
American ships from payment of tolls
for passage through the Panama canal
The defeat of the Burton amendment
to strike out the discrimination in IA
vor of American ships was the senate's
answer to the protest of Great Britain
against the legislation. It was this
clause Of the bill which led Great
Britain to send formal protest to the
state department.
The failure of the amendment means
that the provision will be kept in the
bill The only senator's to vote for the
Burton amendment were Brandegee,
Burton, Crane, Fail, Gronna, Lodge,
Nelson, oliver, Penrose, Root and Wet
more.
The vote was reached at 1880 D. M,
following eleven and a half hours Of
debate.
Hoke Smiths Amendment Accepted.
The senate also adopted an amend
ment offered by Senator Hoke Smith,
of Georgia. providing that the only
ships to be exempted from tolls were
those engaged exclusively" in the
| coastw1se trade. This would bar ships
which engage partly in the foreign
trade and are thus brought in competi-
| ton with foreign ships.
He added a provision that such Ships
when exempted from the payment of
tolls should rehsve the government
from all liability for damage to ship.
Messengers and crew while passing
through the canal
As first introduced, the amendment
would have required American coast :
wise ships to pay the actual expense, of
this passage, but Senator Bristow OBJ
tected that If the cost of operating tbs
canal was sS,5O0,0OO year and onIv
one ship went through, its tolls would
be $5,5OO.O00.

SENATE DISTRICT
is AIM Of FULTON
This County Would Divorce
Clayton and Cobb and Gre
ate the Forty-fifth.

Fulton County's plan to take part in
the primary in the Thirty fifth sena-
torial district failed to materialize yes
terday afternoon when the district ex-
ecutive committee met to arrange de-
tails. Instead of opposing Cobb and
Clayton counties, the Fulton members
decided to Operate with the repre-
sentatives of the other counties to work
the state Legislature for separate sena-
torial district for Fulton.
The plan is to obtain an act taking
Clayton and Cobb counties out of the
Thirty fifth district, attaching them to
some other district, leaving Fulton
master of the Thirty fifth. If this plan
proves impossible, the passage of a con-
stitutional amendment creating a new
senatorial district, the Foryth- fifth, will
be urged for Fulton.
Both Cobb and Clayton counties have
agreed to this arrangement, but the
plan will not interfere with the coming
primary. The committee adopted Au-
gust q as the date and August 26 as
the date for the senatorial convention
to name the new executive committee.
Clayton county. whose turn it is to
have the senator under the rotation
system. will be allowed to name its own
man.

Wilson's Speech
PleaSeS WatterSOn

LOUISVILLE, KY, Aug. S.-Com-
menting on Woodrow Wilson'S speech
Of acceptance, Henry Watterson says:
1T was day of good words and good
omen at Seagirt yesterday. There was
about the formal opening OF the Demo-
cratic campaign an air that was any
thing but perfunctory, that was charged
with significance of great and vital
.hings.
1T is not eXaggeration to say that
Governor Wilson's address in accept
ance of the nomination of the Balti-
more convention was exceptionally i'm
pressive and inspiring. That it would
be scholarly, thoughtful and we'll ex-
pressed was expected as a matter of
course. That it would be marked by
the ability Of the man of intellect, the
student both of books and affairs, was
equally anticipated. But with all this
It's real force was the force of the in
telligence, the acuteness, the clarity
with which the student has analysed
conditions, and the courage, the sin
cerity and sanity with which he ap-
proaches the responsibility of their rec
tification. With a thorough apprecia-
ton of the fact that there has been a
great awakening of the people and that
the country is at the beginning of a
new epoch, he defines his conception of
the responsibilities which the voters of
the United States are to place upon his
shoulders with no suggestion of cow
ardice, yet no faint of demagogy. In
his mastery treatment of the tariff and
trusts he urges that our policy in work
ing reform should be neither rash nor
timid, and this lack of both rashness
and timidity characterizes the detini-
ton of his attitude on the various i'm
portant questions touched upon in his
address.
The party to which the country is
to intrust the administration of it's
government next March is fortunate in
having so lucid and forcible a spokes-
man, and the country will be doubly
fortunate if, under the presidency of
Woodrow Wilson, it shall see realized
the soundly progressive policies enun-
ciated by him at Seagirt yesterday"

It does its work by reason or the
