CANAL EYE-OPENER,

Very often it is the case that we
have actually to see things done be-
fore we stop to consider whether or
not they can be done. From time to
time we are going to see such things
done by reason Of the completion of
the Panama canal-things we scar.
cely had thought about-which Will
add to the world significance of that
mighty work, says the Los Angeles
Tribune
Here is something that has Just
taken place, that tends to enlarge our
vision Of the possibilities of the
future. The first shipment made by
steamer sailing direct from Siberia
crossed the Pacific. went through the
canal and arrived at New York, max
ing a distance Of 10,10O miles. Had
this shipment followed the old-tim e
course and gone through the Suez
canal, then crossing the Atlantic, it's
course would have been 5000 miles
longer, and the time Of passage. reck-
oning on a ten-knot vessel, twelve
and a half days longer.
When course between New York
ane the Orient saves fuel for 5000
miles and also twelve and a half days
in time. that course Is going to be
adopted. And moreover, it leads to
stimulation OF trade between this
country and the Orient. a trade in
which every section having goods to
buy and sell can and in time will have
a share. When we get away from
the coastwise view OF our canal and
begin to look at it's world Importance.
/ we find additional reasons for the be-
lief that the Pacific Is the ocean of
| the future.
