Panama Canal.

1t is more than probable that the
building OF the Panama canal would
never have been possible but for the
discovery by Or. Jesse Lazear OF the
United States army. who. by the way,
sacrificed his life while making the ex.
periments leading to the discovery,
that yellow fever was transmitted by
the bite of the deadly stegomia mos

timely discovery the mortality and at

have been a handicap too great to have

Young man who is thus honored, 1t
demonstrates just how we'll estao-

ANOTHER FOOLISH
PROPOSITION.

1t seems that the more men attempt
to find out facts about Mexico the more
they arrive at erroneous conditions.
The latest example of this is the re-
quest of Secretary of State Bryan Tor
100000 Ito remove all the Americans
from Mexico. Such proposition is
a,t.iicuIous to any one who is familiar
with conditions in Mexico. There are
hundreds Of Americans, we might say
thousands, who cannot leave Mexico
under any consideration. They must
stand by their jobs as men Slnd take
the consequences no matter in what
danger they are placed by the present
foreign policy Of the United States
government.
We particularly refer to the erlgin-
GERS, conductors lrainmen, dispatch'
ers, superintendent, and managers OF
the railways of that country whose
places Mexicans are unable to fill;
the hundreds of electricians in charge
of the great transmission power
plants; the mining engineers, upon
whom lGepend the operation of some
of THE worlds greatest mlres; the
professional men, doctors, dentists and
druggists, whose departures would
leave the natives in serious s'sua'
ton, the highly paid mechanical en-
eincers upon whose skill depends the
running of the big mills and factories
which if shut down would mean star
vations to thousands of the poorest
classes.
Then There are the Americans who
have worked and toiled for years TO
buisd up a small competency, OF
own home or whe have their all
invested in some business or other
which they cannot leave unless 1t Will
be destroyed.
Mr.. Bryan's plan cannot be car1eo
out.

craftsmanship. "A few of the old
school are still playing, but the days
when base runner found his way
around the bases with danger
from unfair actions of his opponents
are past, never to return to game
that has become a credit to American
students of sport.
The addition to the game of just
such men as Walter Johnson, who is
being honored' today, brought about
the change for which many enthusi-
astic lovers of the sport had iong
clamored. The numerous testimonials
from men who stand high in base
ball history of the present day COM
him not only as a great pitch
er, but as clean, high-grade young
man whose qualities have made him a
favorite in the greatest game the ath-
letic world has ever witnessed. In
behalf of the hundreds of Alexandria
fans who admire him, the Gazette
desires to congratulate Walter John
son on the sixth anniversary OF his
career as big league player.

REPLY TO MR.. HELM.
(Communicated.)


A reply to Representative j. Thos.
Heflin's Sermon on "the Ideal Wo-
man." as quoted in the Gazette Of
July 2Sth.
What caused women to become suff-
ragettes and suffragetters?
What makes the unmarrie3 female
a fanatic on the suffrage question?
What makes the unhappy, discon-
tented married woman seeker of the
right to vote?
It is because the one is an unsym-
pathetic witness and the other silent
victim of mans power over woman
who is accorded no rights. After
spending years of sacrifice in making
a home and rearing her children, the
wife is told she is no longer needed,
some one else is preferred to her.
When she reminds her husband OF the
sacrifices she made for him and for
his home, she is told that is a womans
duty. Does he realize his duty? Oh!
No! The duty is all woman's!. Man
has no duty. He has bat rights
Is il wonder then, that women,
too demand their rights? Is n
wonder they forget their duty in the
home. made to forget it because thsy
are forced to leave the family they love
to go out to work? What is saddcr
TO see than a once beautiful, happy
home, broken up?? Yet what woman
feels like being a home lover and
home maker when she has lest conf-
.dence in her husband? None.
Representative Heflin will say there
are many women who are not treatea
like this and 1 answer, off none
were, there would be no suffragetteS;"
for given their rights women would
not need to seek them.
Why, then, be surprised that un.
married women, profiting By the SAD
experience of their sisters, prefer
single blessedness with all it's prl-
vilges to the infelicity Of welded
thraldom? Why call them feminine
fanatics because they try to protect
themselves?
Of course there are women VINO
would corrupt politics, at least so
some men think. Could they corrupt
them more than they are at present
by men who hold high Offices, yet re-
sort to graft and all its consequencht
evils?
Should it surprise Us that hoMe-loV-
mo women are becoming fewer when
the head of the house degrades his
family? Must women do all the
home-making? Is the marriage vo"
no longer mutual contract?
The solution Of both serious prob
lens is without a doubt return 10
the Sacred teachings of Christ:
"What God hath joined together, let
no man put asunder."
