A PATRIOTIC WAKMM
Fighting Bob Evans has Just deliv
ered an important message to this
nation. Nothing .that has been said
by any president or statesman In 40
years la more vital, more patriotic
"or of deeper interest to the entlri
country. ' ' .
In an able paper entitled "Will th
Railroads throttle the Panama Canal
be shows facts that cbould cause e
ery person In the United States to d-.
some honest thinking.
' The succers of the Panama, Cana
which may yet coBt this nutlon $500,
000,000, Is even more important tha
irrigation prelects, ., conservatioi
schemes, and great national . pro
lema affecting the welfare of tbe na
tlon; for if the canal Is 'crippled sc
that its benefits do not reach the peo
pie, it might as well be abandoned
now. The country's development
, will greatly depend on the success of
the canal. .
Admiral Evans contended that the
railroads of the country already own
most of the important. wharves, es
socially on the Pacific coast. He
aayB: "The first requisite for a sue
cessful steamship line Is suitable
docking at the two ends of the route.
Without this, no lino can hope to sue
ceed.'" :r '"''''y'
He then shows that the municipal
ownership of docks is necessary in
order that independent lines of steam
hips may hope for proper bertblnp
and loading facilities. He continues
"The Pacific coast, from San Dlegr,
to Alaska, has many fine porta or
harbors where one might expect to
find, through municipal ownership of
water-front property, docking loca
tlona available for new steamship
lines; but most of such property Is
now in the hands of railroad com
' panics." -:. . ..-
Tho article appears In Hampton's
Magazine for March and It bristles
with facts. The Admiral shows that
freight steamers from -Los Angelas
to New. York can be run by way of
the canal In from 11 to 16 days, wbil
tho tlmo of fnst railway freights is
from 20 to 60 days. Not only s bin
the ships would save the shippers of
goods 720,000 every time a rmijul
trip was made, or' almost $r.000,00 u
7ear many times tho coet of tho ves
' ' aels.'
Edgar Allen Poo's name will bo
perpetuated In thr Hall of Fame of
t , New Yory University, as a result of
' this year's election of candidates, un
; less nil signs fall. Tho fight for Poo
has already been renewed with visor,
and those who labored so havd for
' ; . that end ; nnd failed five years ago"
bellve now that they will be success
ful. Whn the one hundred 'elector
chosen by the Senate of New York
University to vote for candidates to
the Hall of Fame sent in their ballots
In 1905 It was found that In spite of
the energetic campaign for Toe he
lacked nine votes.

To prove that the situation brought
