Delightful Recital

The Recital given by Mr.. Harry
Cockrill at Estill Collegiate In
stitute Chapel, Wednesday eve
ming was a delight to the large
audience that gathered to hear
the musical treat. Mr.. Cockrill
was ably assisted by Miss Mary
Traynor, Soprano, of Richmond,
whose singing, with accompani-
ment by Miss Florence SIMPSON,
was charm to all present. The
repeated encores from the audi
ence was sufficient proof of the
success of the recital. Mr.. Cockrill
is a pupil of Miss SIMPSON,
whose work as music teacher in
connection with the Institute has
been so gratifying to the patrons

A Still Hunt


The announcement made few
days ago that Hon. w. B. Smith
was an applicant for the office OF
Collector of this District came as
a surprise to the public. That he
had been quietly contemplating it
was well known to some of his
friends.
Mr.. Smith will make a formid-
able competitor for the position.
He will have the endorsement of
many leading Democrats through
out the State.
tits unfortunate that the forces
of Gibson and Smith should be
pitted against each other, for it
may be that this conflict will de-
termine the appointment against
both of them. But with a COM
bination of Smith for Collector
and Gibson for Chief Deputy, the
united forces should easily land
the office for Richmond.

Judge T. M. Cardwell Ill

Judge Thomas M. Cardwell, who
has been suffering for some
weeks with carbuncle, and who
has also been afflicted with dia-
betes for a long time, is lying at
deaths door at his home in Har-
rodsburg. The physicians have
applied every remedy and, while
they have some little hopes that
he may partially recover, it would
seem almost a miracle.
Judge Cardwell, while an i'm.
pulsive man, has a tender heart
and has been one of Harrodsbures
most prominent men for many
years. His devotion to his church
and home is unusual and his
many friends are hoping that he
may yet be spared.

Katherine became the bride of Mr.. Don c.

ceremony was performed was decorated in
palms and Boston ferns. In the presence
of two families and a few intimate friends
Rev. ]. H. MacNeill in an impressive
manner spoke the words that bound to-
gether these two young hearts. The bride
was never lovelier than upon this occasion

of Brides roses she was picture of girlish
beauty. She is one of the most popular

A MILITARY SCHOOL

In this day under modern meth
DDS, it is impossible to give to a
boy that fine old discipline of our
fathers. Without this training, a
boy will become effeminate. Deliv-
er us from "gar' boy or a boy
gal. Strict, even severe training
is as necessary for the develop
ment of a boy as is the cutting of
a diamond necessary to bring out
its beauties. There is a difference
between ruffianism brutality and
strict military training. Our E.
K. S. N. S. is the very place for
such a school. With its excellent
corps of instructors, with a mill
tary man who could easily take the
place of the physical culture in
structor, a magnificent school
could be built up here that would
easily pay its way. 1t could not be
detrimental to our present school.
Indeed, it appears to us that it
would be very helpful to it. No
additional appropriation would be
needed. Such school would be
hailed with delight and properly
supported by the people. We
should pull for the establishment
of such school. If the larger ex,
perience of the faculty and board
of regents, should be adverse to
our opinion, then the State should
establish such a school in each
county to be operated in co nnec-
ton with the public schools.

taken the high position that the
canal should be open on equal
terms to the commerce of the
world. In each agreement with
England it has declared this to be
its purpose. Panama secured for
the world by its grant to us of
the Canal Zone, equal terms,
equal rights for the ships of every
nation who agree to the rules and
regulations of the canal and who
agree to afford it protection.
With the declarations of the
government as to its purposes in
constructing the canal, with its
solemn treaties with England,
and its sacred obligations to
Panama, staring us in the face,
how can it be contended that we
can discriminate in favor of our
coastwise vessels? The argument
brought forward to support this
discrimination, is that we bought
the Canal Zone and hold it like
we own the United States.
Therein lies the error. We own
the Canal Zone by grant from
Panama, which grant impressed
a sacred trust and obligation on
our part of keeping the canal
open on equal terms to the ships
of the world.
We must keep our treaty obi
cations.

TREATY OBLIGATIONS

The construction of a cana
across the Isthmus, joining the
two oceans, had long been the
subject of deep consideration b,
two great powers, England and
the United States. Each had
large possessions on the two
coasts. No other powers were
concerned in the scheme. The
plan discussed and which seemed
to meet with universal favor. EN-.
braced the construction of a canal
on the Nicarauguan route.
Neither power owned the terri
tory. England claimed a protec-
torate over the Eastern coast.
By treaty with Nicaragua, we
had acquired the right to con-
Struct a canal; but the treaty was
never approved by the Senate.
With matters in this condition,
the United States and England
in 1850 held a convention in
which it was mutually agreed
that neither would take any ex-
elusive control over the canal
"And that neither would take advantage
of any intimacy, or use any alliance, con-
nection, or influence that either might
possess with any State or Government
through whose territory the said canal may
pass, for the purpose of acquiring or hold
ing directly or indirectly, for the citizens
or subjects of the one, any rights or advan
tageS in regard to commerce or navigation
through the said canal which shall not be
offered on the same terms to the citizen:
or subjects of the other -
This convention was sought by
the United States. Our repre-
SentativeS were instructed to say
THE United States sought no exclusive
privilege or preferential right of any kind
in regard to the proposed communication
and their sincere wish, if it should be found
practicable, was to see it dedicated to the
common use of all nations ON the most
liberal terms and footing of perfect
equality for ALL
THAT the United States would not, il
they could, obtain any exclusive right Oh
privilege in great highway which natur
ally belonged to all mankind"
These were the agreements be-
tween the two great nations in
terested in the building of a canal
across the IsthmuS. AS neither
owned the right of way, the
agreements were for a joint pro
tectorate merely. 1t could not &C
any further.
French capitalists under the
leadership of the great French
engineer, DeLeSseps, undertook
to build a canal by the Panama
route across the lsthmus. 1t re
suited in failure because of the
stealing of the funds by those il
charge of the same. Had thu
canal been completed, what would
have been the rights of the own
ers of the canal in the English
American treaty above recited
To what extent could Englanc
and the United States control tn,
rates and management of tn,
canal by its owners?
Answering the first question,
is apparent that the compan,
would not have any standing il
court in a suit to make Englan,
and the United States carry on
their mutual agreement for
joint protectorate. Nor Woul,
they have Jared any better befor

tors. 1t was not a party to tn
agreement and had no interest il
its performance.

ercise any control over the man
agement of the canal or the
rates charged for its use. 1t was
a private enterprise which had
obtained its rights by purchase
from Colombia, across which
country the canal was to be built.
1t had the absolute dominion over
the same, subject only to the
terms of the agreement with
Colombia.
The United States bought the
stock and all the rights of that
defunct company. and it is fresh
in memory how the Colombian
Government undertook to hold
this country up in its efforts to
build the canal. 1t is well re-
membered how Panama revolted
from the Colombian government
and how it was Immediately rec
ognized as an independent State
by the United States under
Roosevelt. twas openly charged
at the time by the Colombian
government that Roosevelt had
ENCOURAGED Panama in its revolt.
which charge was at the time in
dignantly denied by Roosevelt,
but in the last campaign, he
boosted that he had taken"
Panama, thereby admitting his
wrongful conduct, all of which he
undertook to justify on the
ground of necessity.
Let us retrospect a little. The
treaty of 1850, called the Clayton
Bulwer treaty, had been respected
for fifty years by both England
and the United States, but at the
instance of the United States a
new treaty was sought and in
1900 the Hay-Pauncefote treaty
was made respecting the canal.
This last treaty provided
1st-For neutrality of the canal.
2nd-It gave the United States
the right to build same alone.
3rd- 1t gave the United States
the exclusive right of providing
for the regulation and manage
ment of the canal"
4th-It provided
'The canal shall be free and open
to the vessels of commerce and of war of
all nations observing these rules on terms
of entire equality, so that there shall be no
discrimination against any nation or its
citizens or subjects in respect to the condi-
tons or charges of traffic, or otherwise
Such conditions and charges of traffic shall
be just and equitable"
The substance of the treaty is
that we can own, construct and
control the canal, but it must be
on terms of equality to all.
After this treaty, which was
ratified by the Senate of the
United States, Panama seeded
from Colombia, Roosevelt recog-
nized its independence which was
concurred in by all the other ma
tons, either actively or paSsively.
The rights of the French company
in the Panama canal were bought
by us and Panama sold us the
Canal Zone. Thus the status of
the parties changed and all treat
les were annulled UNLESS
the contract between us and
Panama kept them in force.
This contract provided
lst-For an absolute sale to us
of a Zone ten miles wide across
Panama.
End Granted us absolute SOW
ereignty over same.
3rd-Gave us a monopoly to
build the canal.
4th-But provided for neutrali-
ty in the use of same for all ma
tons on terms of equality. This
provision especially referred to
the treaty with England called
the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, and
provided for its observance by us.
We quote from Art. IS in our
deed or grant from Panama as
follows:
''The canal, when constructed, and the
entrances thereto shall be neutral in per-
petuity, and shall be opened upon the

GOODRICH co. NOT HIT BY
RUBBER MAKERS STRIKE

There is no quarrel or labor dispute
between the b. F. Goodrich Company
and its employees, according to state
ment by H. A. Price. Southern manager
OF the Goodrich Company in Atlanta, talk
ing OF the rubber makers strike in Akron.
He said that so far as his company is
concerned, no grievances are evident on
the part of Goodrich employees. and
positively no demands have been made by
the men for a change in the wage scale.
For more than 40 years says Mr.. Price,
the relations existing between employers
and employees of his factory have been
intimate and free from labor disputes.
