PANAMA CANAL WILL
BRING HORDES OF PEOPLE
Commerce of West Will Attain the
Proportions of That of
the East

1t is impossible to predict exactly
ma canal will have upon the location
of distributive centers, but one thing
is certain: there will be a great influx
of immigration upon our western
coast; and this will mark a new epoch
in commercial, industrial, agricultural
and social conditions.
AS it is at present the heavy flow of
immigration from the crowded Euro
pean countries is upon our eastern
shores, and this is true in spite of
the fact that the fabulous West is the
dream objective of the great mass of
these homeseekers. Their meager
funds, however, are insufficient to en-
able them to make the long and more
expensive journey around the Horn
and up to our western coast. conse-
quently, what few immigrants we
have here are those who have grad
ually drifted across the continent.
With the opening of the Panama ca
nal, however, all this will be changed.
Passage to western ports will cost
very little more than passage to east
ern ports, and the great stream of i'm
migration will be played upon the
virgin lands of the west. Activity
Will go forward with a renewed i'm
petus. Unsettled districts adapted to
farming will become quickly spotted
with homes4 large tracts of land now
controlled by single individuals will
De divided, and where there is but one
family now there will be dozen then,
cuitlvating the soil and doubling it's
yield. Owing to the surplus of labor
ana to the increased development of
resources, great manufacturing enter
prises will spring up in all favorable
locations.
Under all these conditions the COM
nerce OF the west will attain the pro-
portions OF that Of the east.

WILSON'S FIRST MESSAGE TO CONGRESS
BRIEF DOCUMENT POINTED TERMS WHAT EXTRA


the world. Aside from the duties laid
upon articles which we do not, and
probably cannot, produce, therefore.
and the duties laid upon luxuries and
merely for the sake Of the revenues
they yield, the object of the tariff du-
ties henceforth laid must be effective
competition, the whetting Of Ameri-
can wits by contest with the wits Of
the rest of the world.
1t would be unwise to move to-
ward this end headlong, with reckless
haste, or with strokes that cut at the
very roots of what has grown up
amongst us by long process and at
thing to upset it and break 1t and
deprive it of a~chance to change. 1t
destroys 1t. We must make changes
in our fiscal laws, in our fiscal sys-
tenn, whose object is development, a
more free and wholesome develop
ment. not revolution or upset or con-
fusion. We must build up trade, es-
pecially foreign trade. We need the
outlet and the enlarged field Of en-
ergy more than we ever did before.
We must build up industry as well
and must adopt freedom in the place
Of artificial stimulation only so far as
it will build, not pull down. In deal
ing with the tariff the method by
which this may be done will be mat
ter of judgment, exercised item by
item.
To some not accustomed to the ex-
elements and responsibilities Of
greater freedom our methods may in
some respects and at some points
seem heroic, but remedies may be
heroic and yet be remedies. 1t is our
business to make sure that they are
genuine remedies Our object is clear
If our motive is above just challenge
and only an occasional error of judg-
ment is chargeable against US, we
shall be fortunate.
We are called upon to render the
country a great service in more mat
ters than one. Our responsibility
should be met and our methods should
De thorough, as thorough as moderate
and well considered, based upon the
facts as they are, and not worked out
as IL we were beginners. We are to
deal with the facts of our own day !;
with the facts of no other, and to
make laws which square with those
facts. 1t is best, indeed 1t Is neces-
sary, to begin with the tariff. will
urge nothing upon you now at the
opening of your session which can OBJ
scure that first object or divert our
energies from that clearly defined
duty. At later time I may take the
liberty of calling your attention to re-
forms which should press close upon
the heels of the tariff changes, II not
accompany them, Of which the chief
is the reform of our banking and cur
rency laws; but just now / refrain.
For the present, I put these matters
on one side and think only of this one
thing-of the changes in our fiscal
system which may best serve to open
once more the free channels of pros
perity to a great people whom we
would serve to the utmost and
throughout both rank and file.

Pass Evil Existed In Colorado.

The Keota news., 1913-04-11


Wilson's message, read to the Senate
and House was brief, but told in gen
eral terms what is expected to be ac-
complfshed at the special session. The
message in full follows:
To the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives:
have called the Congress together
in extraordinary session because a
duty was laid upon the party now in
power at the recent elections which 1t
ought to perform promptly, in order
that the burden carried by the people
under existing law may be lightened
as soon as possible and In order. also,
that the business interests Of the
country may not be kept too long in
suspense as to what the fiscal
changes are to be to which they will
be required to adjust themselves. 1t
is clear to the whole country that the
tariff duties must be altered. They
must be changed to meet the radical
alteration In the conditions of our eco
nomic life which the country has wit
messed within the last generation.
While the whole face and method
of our industrial and commercial life
tion the tariff schedules have re-
NAMED what they were before the
change began, or have moved in the
direction they were given when no
large circumstance of our industrial
development was what it is today.
Our task is to square them with the
actual facts. The sooner that is done
the sooner we shall escape from suf-
fering from the facts and the sooner
our men Of business will be free to
thrive by the law OF nature (the ma
ture of free business) instead of by
the law of legislation and artificial
arrangement.
We have seen tariff legislation
wander very far afield in our day
very far indeed from the field in
which our prosperity might have had
a normal growth and stimulation. No
one who looks the facts squarely in
the face or knows anything that lies
beneath the surface Of action can fail
to perceive the principles upon which
recent tariff legislation has been
based. We long ago passed beyond
the modest notion of protecting" the
Industries Of the country and moved
boldly forward to the idea that they
were entitled to the direct patronage
of the government. For long time
a time so long that the men now ac-
tive in public policy hardly remember
the conditions that preceded tive
have sought in our tariff schedules to
give each group of manufacturers or
producers what they themselves
thought that they needed in order to
maintain a practically exclusive mar
ket as against the rest of the world
Consciously or unconsciously, we
have built up set of privileges and
exemptions from competition behind
which it was easy by any, even the
crudest, forms of combination to or
ganize monopoly; until at last nothing
Is normal, nothing is obliged to stand
the tests Of efficiency and economy,
in our world of big business, but ev-
erything thrives by concerted ar
rangement. Only new principles of
action will save us from a final hard
capitalization of monopoly and a
complete loss of the influences that
quicken enterprise and keep inde-
pendent energy alive.
It is plain what those principles
must be. We must abolish everything
