sEAurlry OUR TOWN

April Gath will be Arbor day and
the citizens of our town should In
terest themselves and plant trees
on their lawns and along the resi-
dent streets of our city for the bene-
fit Of future generations. Some 35
years ago the citizens and town au-
thorities of Georgetown, Colo. arous-
ed themselves, laid out and planted
with trees a beautiful park In the
heart Of the city. and also lined the
resident streets with trees that are
now SO and 60 feet high, making 1t
one Of the most beautiful mountain
towns for summer tourists to pass
the sultry months to be found In
the state. Governor Ammons will
probably declare this day as official
cleanup day and our citizens ON that
day should plant trees and clean w
the town. that when strangers come
into our town they may behold q
spirit OF enterprise. Casey avenue
could be made O most beautiful and
slightly boulevard were the town au
thorities and residents only to exert
themselves to plant and water the
trees, our radioactive soil and nature
would do the rest. Get busy. Mr.

The Central City Cab and Omnibus
company has had the exclusive right
to our streets and avenues free OF
charge for the past forty years and
has grown wealthy from transporting
passengers and baggage. Like the
Denver Telephone company. they
have had the free use Of our streets
for so many years they now own
them and everything therein contain

THE PANAMA TOLLS ISSUE

And now we are told that "the
president has surrendered to England
On the Panama canal tolls question.
The men and the newspapers who
have raised this cry were denouncmg
Wilson short time ago because he
would not pay Englands game in
Mexico and either intervene or rec.
ognize Hulerta. In both instances
they voice the views of certain pow
erful selfish interests.
The Panama canal, when complet-
ed. will have cost the American peo-
pie more than four hundred million
dollars. The yearly cost OF mainten-
ance and operation exclusive of in
terest on investment-will be twenty
five million dollars The estimated
revenue from tolls is twelve million
dollars, which means that the Amerf-
can people must make up an annual
deficit of thirteen million dollars.
| Under the law as it stands all ves-
sells passing through the canal-Aam-
erican and foreign, alike-must pay
tolls, except American vessels en-
gagged in the coastwise trade. These
are the petted darlings of navigation.
The statute books are burdened with
laws granting special privileges to
this class Of shipping, and the bene-
ficiaries-after the manner of all
monopolists-have repaid our gener-
osity by entering intd combinations
among themselves and with the rail-
roads for the purpose of maintaining
exorbitant freight. rates. Until 1.-TWO
years ago no ship could be employ
ed in the coastwise trade unless it
had been constructed in an American
ship yard. This enabled the ship
building trust to feather it's nest in
an amazing fashion. A San Francis
CO capitalist who wanted to put three
new ships in this trade was inform
ed by the trust that the vessels
would cost him five hundred thousand
dollars each. He refused to be held
up and had the same ships built in
England for two hundred and sixty
five thousand dollars each. An act
Of congress was required before he
could use them to carry cargOes be-
tween American ports.
When the question Of fixing the
Panama canal tolls was before con-
gress. the coastwise shipping COM
bine was powerful enough to slip a
provision into the law, granting its
vessels an exemption which would
mean a yearly saving of about one
million five hundred thousand dollars
The opponents Of the proposition
pointed out that 1t was ship sub
sidy in disguise and that 1t was a
plain violation OF our treaty obliga-
tions which provided that the ships
of all nations should be permitted to
use the canal on terms of exact
equality, but they were outvoted.
President Wilson has asked con-
gress to repeal the exemption clause,
because he holds that the plighted
word of the American people must
be made good with the nations of the
wDrld, and becs-s, Il wcIld be eco
nomic folly to continue to pamper the
greedy .coastwise shopping interests.
In that position he win be support
ed by congress and the American
people without regard to political af-
filiations.
