Washington Letter,
BY Edward Heating,
Congressnlan-at-Large
From Colorado.

'.The Panama Canal tolls qnes-
ton is the rock which will split
the Democratic Party! This was
the predictio, made by one of
the Republican leaders in the
Speakers lobby of the House OF
Representatives only yesterday.
1t was evident that he believed
what he said. His face was
wreathed in smiles and his eyes
fairly danced with joy. He was
plainly pleased with the way the
political world was wagging for
him and his party colleagues.
The President has blundered,
the Democrats were in hole,
and therefore, God reigned and
the Government still lived"- &C
cording to his manner of think
ing.
was not impressed ty the
prophecy or the confidence OF the
prophet, for l had heard the
same leader, standing on almost
the same spot deliver himself of
actically the same prophecy
half a dozen times before during
the last year. Wilson had blum
dered AMI the Democrats were
in a hole" when we passed the
tariff bill, and again when we
put through the currency meas
ure, and again when we refused
to intervene in Mexico, and ION
every other occasion when a
Democratic Congress. follow
ing the lead of Democratic
President, had the nerve to deal
with big questions accoding to the
centrry-old prime pies of the
Democratic party
COURAGE TO DO RIGHT
But the party and the Presi-
dent are strong with the people
today because they have the
courage to ignore these croaking
prophets of evil and to stand for
the right because it was the
right.
The Democratic party has no
apology to offer for its attitude
on the Panama tolls question.
1t will not shrink from the issue
and it does not fear tae peoples
verdict. 1t stlnds four-square
behind the President and un-
equivocaliy indorses his position
as he stated it in his last mess
age to Congress: We consented
to the treaty; its language we
accepted, If we did not originate
it and we are too great, too pow
erful, too self-respecting a ma
ton to interpret with too strain
ed or refined reading the words
r of our own promises just be-
cause we have power enongh to
give US leave to read them as we
please. The large thing to do is
the only thing we can afford to
do.
HIST uRY OF CONTROVERSY
The Sugar Trust, and the Wool
en- Trust, the Money Trust, have
all crossed swords with the Pres
ilent. One would imagine that
would have learned a lessen from
the experinces of its fellow octpi.
But such is apparently not the
c Use, and is going blithely on its
way fondly hoping to beffuddle
the public mind. At the risk OF
repeating some of the things I
sad last week, l wilEgive a brief
history of this Panama question.

Almost from the moment the polls

Michael Sholtz and his associates has
been brisk, for proposition of this

have been seen in earnest consultation
at almost any minute after the polls

 Pcrh1us 8 grand gasoline gloat would D" m order. Arizona has watched the IeJrolization of the state fair. From ih. time the automobile and motor cycle became thing with which to entertain the public. there has been q gi5dual growth of interest in the auto contests that have attended the state tair Tn working up public interest in this highly sensational feature, The Republican has aided, perhaps more than many people realize. That ex- plains the sloat.
 Tn 1908. it became evident that there was a great classic auto race to be run from the coast to the fertile valley, through mountains and across deserts Foreseeing the fact that in time. the automobile would draw up even with jhe thoroughbred horse in the interest cf the sensation loving public The Re publican suggested the first race, and offered the cun which has named that race ever since. George Purdy Bullard at that time district attorney for Mari coua county. and one of the territorys first auto fienGs, took up the sugges- tion. helped raise a purse, and man aged the first Republican cup race From that time, no year has passed without a race from the coast-one year. 1912. there were two of them.
 Last year, on another suggestion of The Republicans. Fl Paso came in with a second road race, race, by the way. that bids fair to eclipse all others, both in number of entries and in advertising value.
 All this time, the prime mover was publicity, publicity for the fair for the roads. for this part of the world Gradually. the effect of this advertis- ing began to be felt. Attention was riveted on 3 route that was open the year around. People in the east came to know that there was a road. passable while snow blocked northern highways. The formation of the Borderland Highway association and numerous other highway associations is directly traceable to the wide pub lcity the races gave to certain roads.
 Today. We are facing q problem of our own devising We must undo much of that desert grind" impress sion. conveyed in eight hard road races. The fact is well enough es- tablished that there ARE roads. Now it must be demonstrated that these roads are not only in existence, but are regular tourist routes
 Attention must be concentrated on the ease with which the ordinary batter familias can drive the old gas coach across this country One aid to the dissemination of this idea is the fact that most of the cars which will be entered in the coming races will be stock models, driven by ordin- arv drivers. Few people look to men

Davis race with Oldfield will long be re- membered, even as the coming contest in which both these men are entered will be looked forward to.
 In the same year, Fl Paso's live sportsmen put across the first try out of another race that is promising 10 be classic in its day, just as the western race has become q classic. Jed NeWkirk's Chihuahua Simplex covered the 517 miles of the Fl Paso- Phoenix course, winning in 16:40:14 Johnson's Stutz was second, Naquins Felie third, Clark's Brena special fourth and a whcle host of other men just as good but less fortunate strung along the road

Tetzlaff rode in Fiat but hit q telegraph pole out on the boulevard leading from Spring street and was out almost as soon as he got rolling good.

Brief Summaries of Eiqht Road Races

Race No. i was the only one of the Los Angeles to Phoenix races for which the official A. A. A. sanction was not secured. Its records, there for are not official, cut are taken from the files of The Republican of November 1908. The race was won by Col. F. c. Fenner in a White Steamer out of a field of four cars, including a Kissel, and an Elmore Ralph Hamlin's Franklin. The course of the race was southerly from Los Angeles through Indio and across the Colorado river at EhrenburG. The distance was about 545 miles. Time 30:36.
 The Second Race
 Louis Nikrents Buick won the desert race in the fast time of 19: 44:41. In competition with him were the Isotta, Columbia. E. NJ. F. Kissel Elmore, Pennsyivania, Ford, Doris. and again Ralph Hamlin's fated Franklin. .s Seven out of the ten en- tries finished. This race ended No vember 6, 1909 over the same course that was pursued the year before.
 Herrick's Victory No.
 Harvey Herrick annexed the Re publican cup by driving his Kissel car to victory in 1910. His time over practically the same course as the first two races was 15:49: 40, which is mileage per hour record never equalled over such course Wild Bill" Tremaine first showed up in this year with his Pope Hartford. Some other famous contestants in the 1910 race were Hamlin, who nudgeG out Tremaine for second elace, C. E.

 Herrck's Repeater
 Harvey HerriCk came back in 1911 and won the desert race over a new course, establishing a record there and for the second time claiming the trophies. For there were two now the second, and largest being the Bullock cup for the best time made from the starting point to Yuma, where the course crossed the Colorado river. Yuma's live sportsmen were influen- tial in swinging the race to that point. It has been their pride that they have come through every year and helped make the biggest road race a sizzling success. Herrick mounted a National for his second win, which was in the slower time of 21:03. But the route was much harder-it took in the vile Mammoth Wash It was the first race that ever went through San Diego. Again the entry list is filled with well known names. w. find Hamlin again in second place only two hours back of Herrick Louis Nikrent was there with hIs Buick.

 w. A. HOrreI manager of the Ca dillac branch was keenly disappoint- ed that Don Lee could not get any of the eight cylindered cars for the race. But Bill Bramlette is entering his own Cadillac so he has some thing to look forward to- One time it was believed that the Cadillacs would have three fine new racers in the contest, and that between them Harry Ham, Bramlette and SOules or Mckee could cut a slice out of the money. Still, Bramlette, knowing the road better than most of the drivers, will stand an awfully good show of pushing his car out in front.
