WASHINGTON. May rs.


WASHINGTON, May 2S.
President Wilson's attack on the
sugar lobby and other lobbyists
who have been seeking by the
use of money to influence tar
if legislation has not only driven
the most active of the lobby
lists into comparative retirement,
but has had the effect of arousing
interest In bills that have been pend
ing in Congress for several years for
the purpose of regulating lobbyists.
Similar bills have been urged in the
New Jersey Legislature, from time
to time, without result.
A resolution introduced in the House
by Claude Tavenner, progressive
young Democratic member from IL
linois, proposes an investigation of
LOBBYISTS and their methods by
committee of five House members.
The Tavenner resolution is said to
have the Endorsement of the White
House and it is not impossible that
the whole history of Washington lob
bies may be smoked out and put into
print before the end of the sum-
mer, while the Senate is tussling with
the tariff.
Senator MARITIME paid his respects
again yesterday afternoon to the
sugar lobby and the Calamity howl
ers," who are predicting that free
sugar will desteroy the production of
that commodity in this country. The
New Jersey senator put into the rec
ord a number of newspaper articles
to show that Southern and Western
planters of beets and sugar cane are
proceeding to plant and care for
their crops, apparently indifferent to
what changes may be made in the
sugar duties.

was taken from the cut along this
section to build this embankment
While called a retaining bank, it is
in reality a new surface, raised to a
height of from twenty feet to a hun
dred feet over several square miles
of territory.
The work on this sea level stretch
of canal was made even more diff
cult by the constant floods, caused by
the torrents of rainfall during the
wet season from April TO December.
The same spirit that made possible
Culebra Cut and the great locks has
prevailed on this work. The men
pushing ahead overcame the many
difficulties. till at the present time it
is practically completed.
1t is hard to imagine that this vast
territory. now healthy, dry, and
clean of dense tropical trees and
vegetation. was a few years ago an
almost impenetrable jungle, the Turk
ing place of yellow fever and malaria.
