WHY FREE TOLLS?

Philander c. Knox, ex-secretary of
state, thinks the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty is no bar to the right of the
United States to maintain discrimin
atory tolls at Panama in favor of
American coastwise shipping. Very
good; Mr.. Knox is an able lawyer and
entitled to his opinion. But Elihu
Root, also ex- secretary of state, and
equally eminent in republican poll
tics, is if anything an abler lawyer.
and his opinions is Numerically op-
posed to that Of Mr.. Knox. But, ad-
mitting that there is ground for an
honest difference of opinion on the
technical aspects of the case, can ex-
Secretary Knox furnish any good and
sufficient reason why the 100000, 900
inhabitants of the United States
should be taxed to build $4OO, ,O00,-
900 canal and then tax themselves
further year after year to give special
favors to small body of shippers
and vessel owners enjoying the bene-
fits of that canal2 Why should the
coastwise shipping monopoly be Civ
en- free tolls, aside from any consid-
Grafton of treaty obligations? That
is question that neither Mr.. Knox
or any other free tolls advocate has
yet answered to the satisfaction of
the American people. Mitchell Ca

JUDGE LINDsEY's PROPOSAL

Judge Ben Lindsey is charged with
proposing that the general govern
ment force the Colorado mine operat-
ors to close their mines and keep
them closed until they were ready to
accede to the terms of the striking
miners.
That, Of course, is an exaggeration.
He did not propose anything of the
sort. His plan was for the general
government to cause suspension Of
work at the Colorado mines until the
differences between the miners and
the operators could be adjusted and
that the adjustment be compulsory.
This was going outside the law.
But the mine operators of Colorado
have been for long years outside Of
all laws, excepting those made by
themselves, and have reached po-
sition of absolute anarchy so far as
the rights of the common man are
concerned.
They haze elected legislators and
executive officers and judges of courts
and have taken possession of all the
machinery of government and of jus.
tice.
Judge Lindsey may have been ex.
treme in his proposal of a remedy.
but he was dealing with conditions
that call for drastic Intervention by
some constituted authority. Huron
