CANAL TRAFETC.

Some idea of the traffic that will
pass through the Panama canal when
that short cut between the antipodes
is opened may be formed from the
movement Of vessels through the Suez
canal for the month Of November of
last year.
During that month there were III
eastbound and 22S westbound vessels
in the canal. OF these 122 eaStbound
and III westbound carried cargo.
there were As mail steamers one way
and A another and seven government
vessels each way. In the westbound
traffic the shipment OF Indian wheat
from karochi destined for United
Kingdom ports Appropriated 100000
tons. Indo-China and burma each
exported $4,000 tons of rice, and Siam
and Java each about 600 tons The
Indian manganese iron ore mostly
came from Bombay and went princi-
pally to England and Belgium. The
movement of corn was almost exclu-
sively from Indo-China to France

A WORTHY ORIECT.

An unusual condition exists in the
relations between the Young Mems
Christian association and the foreign
of the city Usually asso-
Citations find it necessary to do mis-
sionary work in order to interest for
eign born citizens. In South Bend the
opposite is the case.
Here the association has been
sought. The foreigners of the city
have voluntarily come to it for assist
ance in acquiring the English Ian
guage. In response TO this appeal the
association has put five teachers in the
field and more than two hundred for
e.gn born people are learning to speak
English under their instruction.
The budget of the association
makes no provision for this expense
and arrangements have been made to
give an entertainment, the musical
comedy OF "Dotty Dimples'' for that
purpose. A portion of the funds SO
secured will be used TO pay the Y. NJ.
c. A. dues of poor boys.
The object of this entertainment
should insure its success. The result
of the performances in funds should
be sufficient to enable the association
to carry on and extend this good work.

Apparently there is much work yet
70 be done before concerted action
will be taken. Differences OF opinion
as to the methods Of procedure must
be recOnciled before the desired prog
ress can be made. Sunragists believe
that the discussion IN the senate pre-

generation womanhood will be eman-
cipated in the United States.

fore the senate. This resolution pro-
vides that whenever any number Of
legal voters exceeding five per cent
of the legal voters at the last preced-
ing general election shall petition for
the submission of the question it shall
be submitted.
1t is obvious that the adoption of
such a resolution by congress would
greatly facilitate the submission of
the suffrage question 10 the people of
the several states Waiting on legisla-
lures is a tedious process. They meet

VALUE OF CONCENTRATION.

Failure of the thirteenth district TO
secure a candidate on the state ticket
was in some degree anticipated for the
reasons that operated TO prevent ii.
With three candidates in the field and
none able to command the united sup
port of the district the possibility OF
success of either was remote.
There was the further fact that the
district already has the lieutenant gov
ernOr and was unanimously accorded
the nomination for United States sem
ator. In the past this end Of the state
has had reason to complain of discrim-
ination in favor Of other sections. 1t
cannot now consistently ask TO be
placed in position to give other sec
tons reason for complaint on the same
ground.

other words it is not advisable 10 go

WHERE MEN ARE UNEQUAL.


"All men are equal in the eyes OF
the law"
Fine phrase. But a trip to any
court where prisoners are being fined
will convince the thinking man that
the ancient. nigh sounding saying is
q platitude.
II IS not the purpose Of this article
to deal with the weak or corrupt
judges who refuse 20 mete out a prison
sentence To a rich man. because that
is the fault OF the judge himself and
ne can be dealt with by the people who
must elect him. but TO point out the
fallacy OF the law itself which. when
a fine IS the punishment exacted, alb
solutely prevents the court from In
hicting an adequate punishment upon
2 wealthy citizen.
Pete JalUski," a day laborer stag
gers out Of a saloon and, unable to
make his EGGS do his bidding. is pick
ed up a policeman. arraigned before
q poliee court magistrate along with
Harold. Smith" a rich capitalist. who
has been discovered in a similar plight
in front OF a swell saloon. The charge
against each is plain drunk. Each
is fined 81 and costs. s. in all we will
say, and Justice due 10 the fact that
perhaps she is blind is satisfied.
Justice is a synonym. strictly speak
ing, COR fairness. Let us see if these
similar sentences are fair.
Jaluskrs income is 50 a week, pro-
vided he works every day in the
trenches. and his only capital is the
strong muscles with which he swings
the pick.
Harold Smiths income is $1,000 a
week and the only labor he must
perform TO get it is TO clip few
coupons from his bonds.
The s. exacted from Pete is 80, or
SO per cent of his weekly income. The
s. Smith must pay is 1900. or IL Of
one per cent Of his weekly income.
The Onenses We're identical There
fore, if the punishment is TO be iden-
tical, why shouldn't Smith be forced
10 give up $S33.S3? And by analogy,
il a fine of 50 is just in Smiths case,
why shouldn't Julaski be fined 4 1-2
cents. or II Of one per cent of mis-
weekly income?
Our whole system OF assessing fines
is wrong, and there is only one rem
edy for the difficulty; a revision of the
laws and ordinances So that they shall
read that all fines shall be a given per
cent of the weekly. monthly or yearly
income OF the prisoner.
If "A vagrant must be fined, the law
might fix 81 a day as a minimum in
come for a man and assess the fine or
p percentage of that income.
Not until some such system here
outlined is adopted will all men be-
equal in the eyes Of the law.

GOVERNOR GLYNN'S CTTY-FARNI
EXPERIMENT


In view of the national discussion
OF the unemployment problem the plan
that is being carried out by Governor
Glynn of New York will be watched
everywhere with keen interest The
the state having opened a now employ
ment bureau, and the farmers upstate
crying for labor to do spring work,
the governor announced that he would
ship several carloads of ;dle men de
sirous of finding jobs into the rural
sections that are short Of hands. He
would pay the fare of the men-and
even of the wives of those who are
married-out of q state fund He
wished to bring jobs and job-seekers
together and 10 test the latter. He
hoped to demonstrate certain tentative
conclusions or to launch a scheme that
would suggest a general solution of the
unemployment problem.
The plan is viewed, however, with
considerable skepticism. This skepti-
ciSm is strengthened by the reported
behavior Of the first carload, at
Fonda, as well as by the Incorporate
denunciation of the governor in syn

THE PLATFORM AND THE
A IL


The Sentinel does not believe there
is the remOtest doubt but that the
work of the democratic state conven-
ton, both as TO platform enuncia-
tons and in the ticket it placed in
nomination will commend itself
strongly to the people of Indiana. AS
a whole il will not only be eminently
satisfactory to members of the demo-
cratic party. but what is also import
ant, 1T combines the elements that are
likely to make a strong appeal to the
independent voter in Indiana. This
does not mean that either platform or
ticket completely satisfy each indi-
vidual democrat or that there were
not personal disappOintments in the
outcome. That condition is never alb
sent. Political action is at best large
~ compromise, but judged by and
large the performance of the repre-
sentatives of Indiana democracy is al
together creditable.
The outstanding feature of the plat
form is. of course. the declaration in
favor of a statewide primary law
That the action in this direction was
