MOSQUITO PEST
ON LAKE GATUN
O|SABLES LABOR
DIFFICULT PIECE OF WORK CON-
PLETED UNDER DIFF
FACULTIES.

NY ANAOetHtcU h-ECAbst
PANAMA, May 25.-One of the
most bothersome pieces of work on
the canal has just been completed.
For over four months work has been
in progress on the dixie known as
Cano Saddle, which was built to pre-
vent Gatun lake from running into
the Atlantic ocean. The dixie is To-
Gated about rs miles north of Gatun
and can only be reached by boats
on Gatun lake. At that point the
surface of the lake reached to within
few feet of a low narrow ridge
through which the waters might have
worked their way and thus washed
passage into the Atlantic.
To prevent this the dixie, or sad
die, 80 feet high and about 1900
feet long, was constructed. During
the course of the work about 1000
men were employed, this great num-
Der being necessary because of the
prevalence of malaria. 1t was the
breeding place for hordes of mos
quitoes and every man taken into
the place was almost instantly af-
fected It is said that every white
man who worked on the job was
brought out Of the district on a
stretcher and unconscious. In spite
of this. however, not death oc'
Cured. every one of the laborers

The GUN BEHIND the Treaty.

The basic thought in Colonel Roosevelt's re-
cent discussion Of the European war and the
Monroe doctrine as explaining our abstenton
from the conflict is that treaties are good only
so far as there are guns behind them to enforce
them. Since Washington our steadfast policy
has been to avoid entanging foreign alliances
and no European country has any right to call
on to help fight its battles. We have new
object lessons, however, as to what treaties
amount to when there is disposition to evade
them violate them. for Belgium is fighting to
maintain It's neutrality rights guaranteed by
treaty Italy is being summoned to fulfill the
obligations Of its alliance, and all the other in
volved countries. except Austria and Seryia,
have been drawn into the affair primarily by
reason OF treaty pledges. In other words, the
thing that makes treaties hold, or fail to hold
is the guns behind them for IL the issue is griev
Gus enough for a country to war for II, treaty
which could be violated practically with i'm
punity would hardly hold II back. The conclu-
sion is that an enduring world peace pact must
have forces of world power behind IT, Co
operative disarmament, with a common body OF
peace maintainers, approaches closer to the
ideal, ideal we regret, apparently still eX-
tremely remote

His Question Of Privilege.

Congressman Moon of Tennessee rose to a
question Of privilege the other day--he had
newspaper editorial that called for correction
1t was from Washington paper and related to
the work OF a committee Of which he WIS a lead
ing member. Said Congressman Moon-as
scores OF congressman before him have said:
! have not the pleasure OF the acquaintance Of
the able and usually accurate editor OF the Her
aid, Nit have read this paper with good deal %
interest and have usually found It fair and accurate
But this article would seem to be inspired.
The Honorable Mr.. Moon simply reflects the
shadow OF a current habit. So long as a mans
newspaper accords with his ideas in its utter
ances he regards 1t fair and accurate" but
with many people the moment the paper takes
the other end OF the argument It is either in
splred otherwise led astray. Strange that
Mr.. Moon, having such faith in the usual fair
ness and accuracy OF his favorte Washington
paper, should. the moment II digresses from his
way OF thinking. consider It grossly unfair and
indifferent and subservient to questionable I'm
fluences.

THE LONELY CHILD.

BY Emma A. Leute IL MOthSes MagaEine
I 1--we with alntie on the farm; shes Moo
as she can be:
She SAYS she means to 90 as We'll as she
knows how by me:
She bids me think If I've been good, she
bids me say my prayers,
And then she takes the light away snd
leaves me here upstairs;
She does not tuck the covers In, or pat
me on the head
The way MY Mother used TO DO petore
that she was dead!
And Auntie says she never dreamed Of
bringing up a child;
She hasn't any of her own, ana children
drive her wild;
try to be az still as STILL and help her DO
the chores.
And when really have to cry slip away
outdoors,
Then wash my eyes out in the brook to
take away the red
They never used to get that way when
Mother wasn't dead
think of how we used to go and take the
lovlest walks.
And just before l went to bed we had the
sweetest talks:
1t was so dear to cuddle in the hollow OF
her arm,
never used to be afraid, or think Of any
harm;
And OH. the songs she loved TO sing, the
stories that she knew

COMPETITION.
The Kind That Wins.

In fair competition lies the true
sport of good business. There is no
calling, no profession, or occupation,
equal to II for absorbing interest and
endless succession of exciting incl
dent. But it should be hat kind of
a healthy competition and friendly
rivalry that does not strain neigh
borly relations. On the contrary, IL
should tend to bring those men to-
gether who are engaged in a similar
business for the purpose OF free dis
cussion and publicity OF opinion.
Unfortunately, this does not often
occur. Men engaged in q like bust
ness sometimes get too friendly, COM
bine their interests, and form a COM
bination, contrary to the laws Of the
realm.
Others enter into a bitter personal
conflict with each other, endeavoring
with might and main to throw ignom-
my upon and diSrcspect for the house
OF their competitors and their goods.
The intensity of the competitive
struggle is subject to a great deal OF
variation. At times It may be char
acterized as cut-throat. where the
slashing of prices has for it's object
the elimination of one or more of
the contestants. Zach competitor is
confronted by the ever-present threat
that II his service is poor, or the
quality Of his goods Is not up to the
standard, some other house of bust
ness Will outstrip him. But the house
that considers service, high quality
sHd no more than a fair profit as the
paramount factors in business, IL the
one that in the long run is sure TO win.

Public Document Distribution.

Commenting on the report OF the Interstate
Commerce commission in what is known as the
20 per cent rate increase case" the outlook ex-
presses the wish that important public docu-
ments might be obtained easily by any citizen
on his application at his local postoffoe. The
idea here is that the people should be advised
through the postoffice of the various public
documents issued they come from the press,
and be given free access TO them upon applca-
ton, an idea which strikes eminently prac-
teal and commendable.
Government publications are notoriously
misfits because OF defective distribution. Many
valuable reports and treatises are issued, but
lose their force by failing to get promptly into
the hands of people who could and would utilize
them and with a tremendous resultant waste OF
effort and money. Distribution on application
through the postoffice would stop this waste in
large measure, and concomitantly expedite de-
livery to the desired destination. This system,
moreover, would develop the relative pop
uar interest in, or indifference to- the numer-
Gus varieties OF government work eliminating
in such publications. and perhaps let us know
that much OF It misses the mark and much
more OF It Is not wanted at all.
