Bill Vines On
The Panama Canal

Frum the way its doped out in sum Of
our forrain treeties, it must have been that
aftur the canal was fully desided upon that
there was a gennerel selebrasion among all
the diplomats of the United States and
the forrain countries ovver the event. Said
selebrasion did not confine itself strictly to
grape iuise, but went rite in for high old
time The high-brows got togethur and
drew up a freely. Now seys the forrain
diplomats to our diplomats, "See here,
you United States fellers air sertainly reg
uler DEVILS. You sure air sum enterpriz-
zng, undertaking to bid this CRATE watur-
way You've dun sum big things in Oil and !;
Beer in the United States, but this is the
only thing you We tried in Watur. Hope
you air successful but inasmuch as we airs
allowing you to bid this cannal and have
all the credit for the same and spend all the
mummy, why we had bettur resu1ve sertain
rites and things for ourselves" Thereupon
our Diplomats weer SO swollen with pride
and the eats, to say nuthing of the drinks,
they signed up a treety which under the
rulings of the Hague whatever that is
it is doubtful whether we have the rite to
set along the edge of the canal and watch
the English and Italien, and the German
vessels all sail rite through, while our own,
ships hang round in the offing and admire,
the scenery or not.
However, the Panama canal is CRATE
thing for this country, both in times Of
peese and war. Before the canal was bilt
the farmers of the west weer compelled to
rely upon the railroads entirely for hand-
ling there produse and shipping it to the
hungry miliyuns of the east. IF theyi
shipped it by watur little Christmas pres
sent started frum California to New York
round the horn would probability not get
in till the next 4th Of July. So they had to
pay the railroads whatever prise they
asked and ship by rail Now all they will
have to do is to pay the same prise and ship
by watnr, 1t is crate boon. Also in case
OF war it is very simple mattur to have
our fleet of fast cruzurs in the Paciffck
and as soon as they site the ennemy they
can hustle rite through the canal with the
ennemy in hot pursoot then as soon as the
enemy has all his ships in the canal simply
close up both ends and refuse to let him
out until he coffs up enuff dough to pay off
the nasional debt, and agrees to go home
and be good
The orriginel ntension of the canal was
oancreese shipping fasillities so that the
Ultimate Consoomer would be benefited
! but EVERY time they get up sumthing for
the benefit of the Ultimate Consoomer He
wakes up next morning to discuvver that
there has been an increase in the prise Of
groseries, and that in spite of all the leggis-
lasion for his exclusive help that the prise
of living continews to sore, and that he is
still the goat The Ultimate Consoomer on
the hole is pretty soft picking.
Yours trooly,
BILL VINES.

six fits in the lobby ever time Senatur
Morgan would open up again on the canal.
When the Senatur started out to talking
about this canal he did not have single

by them all and in addison thereto the

day would roll round that Senatur Morgan
