Washington Whisperings.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April %, 1918.
Senator Chamberlain of Oregon does not
believe in half -way measures SO far as
free tolls are concerned for American
ships passing through the Panama Canal.
Rather than have the agitation continue
on the part of Great Britain, that the
American nation is about to violate the
Hay Pauncefote treaty in abrogating the
tolls on ships flying the flag of the Unit
ed States. the senior senator from Ore
gon has introduced bill abrogating the
treaty as the easiest way out of the diff
Guilty.
Senator Borah of Idaho, who is mem
Der of the foreign Relations Committee
of the Senate. is not convinced that the
Chamberlain bill is necessary, on the
ground that the Hay Pauncefote treaty
contemplated the building of the canal
on foreign soil, whereas we have acquir-
ed the strip of territory through which
the ''big ditch" passes and the canal, by
the very nature of things, is on Ameri
can soil and therefore the treaty in mo
way applies.
In any event the question is very much
alive and is one of the perplexing prob
lens which the administration has to
solve in the very near future, as the new
Ambassador to the United States from
Great Britain, it is understood, is bring
ing with him the last word on the toll
question from the English point of view.
One of the most, if not the most pic.
turesque figure in the Senate, is James
K. Vardaman of Mississippi, whose long
black hair, falling to the shoulders,
smooth-shaven face and piercing black
eyes, afford the guides of the Capitol no
end of small talk for the benefit of the
tourists, who are rowIing the big build
ing on the hill these pleasant days of
spring.
But Vardaman in the Senate and Var
daman in the saddle are as far apart as
the poles. In thu saddle Senator Varda-
man looks like Knight of Old, the lance
and armour being the only things miss
ing to complete the picture.
The junior Senator from Mississippi
made his appearance in Potomac Drive
way the other day on handsome bay
horse, and his faultless riding and his
stately mein, his eyes partly hidden by
the brim of soft hat, such as southern
gentleman wears on the stage and in
Congress, and his long black hair made a
picture for an artist Vardaman was
immaculate i'll dark blue coat, pure
white riding breeches, and black riding
boots. Needless to say he was "the OBJ
served OF all observers"
