There are men in this commu-

of the people as against boss rule,
jingoes and grafters, but at the

Don't such people know that
the daily press is the greatest
power in the world at present for
the moulding of public opinion?
BY thus feeding their enemies.
these seemingly honest people
simply postpone their own day of

PANAMA CHARGES LAND COMMISSION
 HAS BEEN UNFAIR

Panama Aug 17-AIthough the Joint Land Conmisson has suspended sitting because of the absence of one of the American commissioners bitter attacks upon the American members of the commission and officials of the Panama Canal appear almost daily in the Panama newspapers. Charges of unfairness and prejudice together with allegations of false testimony on the part of American land inspectors are made.
 The recent troubles of the land commission were due to the inability of the two Panama commissioners. and the two American cornmssi oners to reach agreements on amounts to be given certain claimants. The attacks on Amercan' canal officials are di- reeted chiefly against Frank FeuilIe, special attorney in charge of the claims, although Governor Gotha1s also is receiving a share of the attack.
 For some time it has been the policy of the Panaman members of the coTn- mission to be as liberal as possible with the claimants while. on the other hand the two American members have been inclined to closely examine all claims brought before the commission,

On the strength. of his exploit the hero of the Merrifnac, having retired from the navy, was elected to Congress from Alabama in 1906, and served continu- ous1y in the House until last March, when he retired. having been defeated in hi face for a senatorial toga- Since his retirement from public life MT. sIobson has devoted most of his atten- ton to waging a war on the rum demon In recent address he called upon Presi dent Wilson to banish liquor from the White House, and he also advocated a congressional approprta- ton to carry on a world-war against alcohol as soon as the European war is over Although a friend of peace and an advocate of the amicable set tlement of international disputes, MT. Hobson has long favored a greater navy for the United States, and has held up the Japanese peril as men ace to the American republic.
 As a student at the Annapolis Naval Academy Hobson graduated at the head of his class, although it's young est member. He is described as an earnest stlldious, quiet lad, and very much of a grind. This naturally made him unpopular with some of the other boys, and he came in for much hazing in his plebe year. 1t is related that one Of the upper cIassnen used all his ingenuity for several weeks. on every possible occasion, to force the Alabama youth to declare that white was black Young Hobson stood this persecution as long as he was able, but one day he revolted, and, with clenched fists and flashing eyes, shouted: II do not desire. neither will I tolerate, any more of your scurrilous scontumely, siri

Tn this they have been upheld by the American canal ofTicials. It is fre- quenfly pointed out by MT. Feuille that the United States is already very liberal with claimants but is decidedly opposed to paying twice for the same trace of land to which the claimant has a doubtful title.
 The relations of the. canal officials and the two American commissioners are also somewhat strained. A recent award in which the two commission CTS agreed with the Panaman mem bers was resented by the canal ofH- ciaIs and ineidently brought down upon the American members rebu1e from Secretary of State Lansing This award, while in itself unimportant, sets precedent upon which the price of lands in the immediate vicinity would be established. It would mean the payment of approximately $2s- o00,00O more for the 1aand than It's present market value
