CANAL TOLLS SETTLED

Il is stated that President Wilson
and the British Embassador have
practically reached an agreement" on
the Panama canal tolls question. This

JOSEPHUS AND THE NAVY.

Secretary Daniels Of the Navy De
partment has ordered the discontinu
ance Of the word Cardboard, or
"port," substitutes Cleft for these
and of starboard,p substituting
"right" So that American naval
craft hereafter will go to the left
or the right, as the case may
he. departing from the old terms. To
a land lubber (won't he please abolish
that term Of sailors contempt, also')
that change seems good.
And yet the jokesmiths do not neg
let the opportunity for little fun
over this order. 1t is pointed out that
there is still room for the extension of
the reform in naval nomenclature. In
stead of going down in the "hold, the
order will be to 90 down "celar,' In
place of going up the hatchway," :"
they will 90 "upstairs. In place Of
going on "deck," they Will 90 on the
"roof." And so the language can be
made easy of comprehension by any of
the great mass of the population. The
cargo will not be "stowed away but
will be "packed in And so on in
definitely.
And thus does the landsman of
North Carolina improve and simplify
the unnatural terms OF the seagoing
men. More power to him, for his pur.
pose evidently is TO bring the navy
moro in touch with the general masses
of the population.

OUR NEIGHBoRs PLEASED.

We note that our fellow beings over
in Canada are immensely pleased with
the Wilson tariff bill They arc iubi.
liant by reason Of the fact that this
bill will give them altogether without
any concession on. their part, pretty
much everything that the reciprocity
treaty would have given them had they
ratified that document, but they re.
iected il. chiefly on the foolish scare
that il meant eventual annexation to
the United States. But they are now
full of enthusiasm and kindly regard
for President Wilson for giving them
so much for nothing, and Of con
,cmptuous sneers at ex-President Taft
because be wanted them 10 give recip-
rocal concessions for the concessions
they received.
Tho state Of mind thus developed in
the Canadians is thus referred TO edi-
torially by the Milwaukee Sentinel,
which is in excellent position TO learn
and gauge Canadian feeling:
President Wilson'S sudden popularity in
neighborS are naturally retoiced over
the fact that what they. with unconscious
sarcasm, call the Wilson tariff BILL Will
give them free. gratis. and for nothing
most OF the advantages which two year:
ago they We're required by Taft TO pur-
chase with reciprocal concessions.
What q difference, from the Canadian
viewpoint between the nobly gencrou:
Wilson and the huckstering Taft! AS FOL
the American viewpoint, We won't say
That will develop later on.
But as Canada regards II, Taft ac'
tually wanted her to purchase this grea'
market for her fish. lumber farm pro-
duce. etc. by giving our manufacturer;
equivalent ingress 10 her markets. And
Canada was mighty near being caioleo
and honeyfugled by the big, arttul mar
into ratify!ng the bargain,
Lucky for us we didn't say the
Canadians. For now comes Mr.. Wilson
with his cornucopa and gives them foI
nothing what Mr., Taft wanted them
TO buy. Says the Toronto Mall: What
a laughing stock Canada would now have
been had Mr.. Tafts bunco steering been
successful"
Poor Mr.. Taft! Called a bunco steerer
and a sklnhiut for trying 10 get Canada
