upon the answer to that question hinges
the answer at Panama.
1t is argued by those who feel that we
have no right to exempt our coastWise
traffic from toll charges that this very
question was brought up in the Senate
when the Hay-Pauncefote treaty was
pending. Senator Bard then introduced
an amendment to the treaty providing
that 1.-The United States reserves the right
in the regulation and management of the
canal to discriminate in respect to the
charges of traffic in favor of vessels
owned by its citizens engaged in the
coastwise trade" The Senate rejected
this amendment, and the advocates of
the British view assert that it is proof
positive that when the Senate ratified
the treaty there was no doubt in any
mind that it's terms included coastwise
traffic.
The rejoinder is made by those who op-
pose the British view that the refusal OF
the Senate to adopt the Bard amendment
was not due to the belief of the Senate
that the treaty should include coastwise
shipping but rather because such an eX-
emption went without saying and that
the Senate deemed such a declaration
wholly unnecessary.

Both Sides Are Admitted
to Have Good Arguments.

reference to our controversy with Great
Britain has been influenced largely by
our own domestic situations. When one
comes to examine the several arguments
produced by both sides he will. if he is
in the position Of the proverbial man up
"a tree, readily admit that there is good
argument on both sides. For instance,

Claims Britain Has Receded right

to our ships passing through the canal,
latterly has receded somewhat from its
position and recognizes our right to remit
the tolls, but insists that We shall collect
them first. He says that there is no prin-
ciple better established in the law than
that it never requires idle ceremony. be-
cause it is a useless and unsubstantial
performance; and that yet England would
insist that we must collect the tolls even
though our next act be to return it,
The people who feel that the attitude we
have taken is wrong for the most part
think that We ought voluntarily to repeal
the coastwise exemption, but at the same
time they think we might be justified in
standing by what We have done to the ex-
tent Of submitting 1t to a court of arbi-
tration. They say we are practically hon.
or-bound to recognize the principle of ar
bitration unless we wish TO write our
selves down as unconsconable hypocrites;
they further assert that We the
worlds greatest exponents of arbitration.
Those who take the opposite view assert
that this is not an arbitration matter;
that coastwise shipping is domestic con-
Germ which nations treat upon an entirely
different basis from general shipping.

Says Thirty-0ne Treaties
Provide for Restriction.

lean citizens is in harmony with the pol
icy of every sea-bound nation.
He recalls thirty-one treaties made be-
tween the United States and other coun-
tries providing for this restriction. lie
adds that. despite all pretense of uni
formity, mutuality and equality of treat
ment, foreign vessels are charged heavier
port duties in English ports than coast
ing trade vessels, and this in spite of
the most formal treaty stipuatons to
the contrary While the existing treaty of
1919 provides that no higher or other du-
ties shall be imposed on American vessels
in the ports of his Britannia majesty
territories in Europe than are charged on
British vessels, yet, for instance, at the
port of Bristol foreign-trade vessels are
charged 81 cents per register ton. while
coastwise vessels are charged 10 cents
per register ton. Furthermore. at the port
of Liverpool the charge on foreign ship
ping is 81; cents a ton, while on British
coastwise shipping it is from . to II
cents a ton.
1t is pointed out that if England for
moment thought that the words. British
vessels or vessels of the United States"
applied to coastWise shipping she would
not have f1agrantly violated the treaty of
1916 by making different charges for
the two classes of vessels. The claim is
made. therefore, by those who controvert
the British view of the Panama tolls con-
troversy that if the treaty of 1915, still
in force, does not prevent England from
discriminating in favor of its coastwise
trade, then certainly neither does the
Hay-PauncefOte treaty prevent us from
discriminating in favor of our coastwise
trade.

Speaking of good roads and i'm
proved streets, with the materials
we have at hand we can make the
finest kind of roads and streets.
Simply use the morl that can be
dug out of the ground most any
where in this section; put 1t down
to a good depth, 4 to 10 inches,
the surface to slope gent
". both ways from the center,
and use pine tar to bind the ma
terial. The tar can be rendered
from the timber that grows all
around us and the charcoal could
be sold for enough to pay the ex-
pense incurred in the process.
There'd be a minimum Of noise
and dust on such roads and streets.

Where is Tampa's Interest?

Really we do hope that the
Panama canal will add millions to
the business of Tampa, but we
are unable to see how it will.
Phosphate and lumber are the on
ly exports leaving Tampa and
they are not apt to increase
through the opening of the canal.
The chief southern exports that
will 90 through the canal are cot
ton, coal and iron products. These
will 90 out through Pensacola,
Mobile. New Orleans and Calves
ton. Proximity to the canal will
have little to do with this business,
as it will seek the nearest sea-
port regardless of that ports dis
lance from Panama.
If iron products are shipped
from Pittsburgh, they are very
unlikely to 90 by rail to Tam
pa and there be loaded on ships.
Nor will the dry goods and no.
tons sent from New York and the
canned goods from Baltimore
seek the Orient through the port
of Tampa. If they 90 to the far
east at all, they are most likely to
90 the entire distance by water.
1t may be that Tampa will reap
some benefit from imports, but
we cannot imagine what other adj,
that city will derive from
the canal. The passenger traffic
is not to be considered, unless
Tampa intends to put on BIZ
weekly steamship service to the
islands, to Manila and
Yokohoma. No business men,
but only few tourists now travel
ito the East by way of the West"
and we don't think the present
tide of travel will be diverted to
The canal.
We wish Tampa unbounded
prosperity, bat we fear it will be
a waste of time and brains for
chat city to put forth extraordi-
nary efforts for any big business
from or by the Panama canal.

Notes About Miami

walking around the city is likely
to be impressed by four things:
dust, wheels, big buildings and
narrow streets. Possibly. no city
of the same size in the United
States is afflicted with so much
dust. But it is now proposed to
pave the streets with brick or
wood blocks, instead of the pull
verified rock, and this will elimi-
nate the dust.
In proportion to population, it
seems that Miami has more bicy-
Giles in actual use than any other
town in the world. Considering
the number of bicycles, motor-cy-
Giles, automobiles, hacks and other
wheeled vehicles with which the
streets are crowded, it is a won
der that the citizens DO not have
wheels in their heads, and we real
ly believe that a few of them are
so afflicted.
They have fad over there for
putting up big, handsome unique
buildings, which is to be COM
mended. One man is preparing
to spend a million dollars building
home for himself and several
others have each built homes cost
ing each q hundred Thousand dol
lars and up. Hon w. j. Bryan,
Our poverty stricken secretary of
state, is building palace for him
self in the suburbs of Miami, and
many others who are not poverty
stricken are following his example.
They laid ont the town only
seventeen years ago, at a time
when there were not a hundred
people there and land was plenti-
full and worth scarcely ten dol
lars an acre, and why they made
the streets so narrow is a mystery
to the uninitiated. But the land
that was then only ten dollars
an acre cannot now be bought
for thousand times that price.
Maybe the town founders foresaw
this phenomenal advance in value
and felt that the ground was too
precious even then to spare much |
of it for streets. But we don't
know how they are going to man.
age to operate street cars in those
streets without killing a lot of peo-
pile every day. Maybe, though,
they will adopt the elevated or the
system.
In the whole republic, there is
doubtless not a buster or more
progressive town of its size than
Miami. And there are more real
estate agents there than there are

enough to say that he himself

thought Stockton would get a

fact that Gilchrist will get at
