CANADA AND A larger part of the
TH E CAN AL solatude of the British
ministry concerning the
Panama Canal tolls is perhaps explain
ed by the energy displayed in railway
building in western Canada. For
many months past, double tracking, ex
tensions, and the displacement of
lighter with heavier steel rails west
ward from the great wheat fields of
Manitoba, Alberta and Saskatchewan,
have marked an anxiety to get more
perfect running arrangements to Van
couver by the time, or soon after,
when the canal shall be opened to
navigation. The Canadians are vital
ly interested not only in the proposed
regulation discriminating in favor. of
United States coasting vessels, but
also, if not equally, in that provision
denying the use of the canal to ves
sels owned in part or in whole by
transcontinental railway lines. The
Canadians have gone on record as op
posing our reciprocities. No doubt
they are even more Itrongly opposed
to our discriminations.
Sir Erward Grey seems to touch
but lightly upon this phase of the
controversy, but it is, in all probabil
ity, the gravamen of his entire dis
pute with us. The propo'sed discrim
ination could hardly militate against
British commerce per se, anywhere
else than along our western coast.
It could not take effect anywhere
along eastern or western coasts of
South or Cenaral America, or in
western Canadian ports. No doubt
there has been a protest in England
against the acceptance of the regula
tion, and such a protest would natur
ally be echoed by the other commer
cial nations of Europe, all of which
have a common interest, it would
seem, in making our national property
their international property, without
the payment of a price of any kind.
But there is no commercial or mari
time nation in Europe with such a
vital interest in the abrogation of the
rule as the Canadians undoubtedly
have.
Any such interest, wherever located,
is without standing in equity or prec
edent. Th.e British position denies
the soundness of long recognized and .
accepted principles of action in fix- J
ing the obligations of private owners '

; The cause lies partly in the employment of methods
which make the pupils tasks too easy and partly in the lack
of men teacher. -
Boys in the four lower grades may well be left in the hands of
women teachers. The upper grades should unquestionably be

of property designated aind intended
for a public purpose. In fact, - the
rules and regulations guaranteeing
equality of service, and rates can be
taken as applying only to foreign ves
sels. A railwaw corporation leasing
any part of its lines to another com
pany invariably reserves privileges to
itself as to rights of way for desig
nated trains, and adjusts its time and
running schedules to its own ' uses
more than it does to the uses of the
lessee, which must adjust itself to
the lessor's convenience. To push the
British position to its reducio ad.ab
surdam, it would deny the United
States the right to discriminate in its
own defense in the use of the canal
in time of war. Sir Edward Grey ev
idently sees this weakness in his reas
oning, and seeks to get away from
it by formally conceding our right to
fortify, as to which, he says, no pro
test will be offered. Really, a protest
against fortification of our property
on the isthmus would be little more
untenable than one which protests
against a discrimination in tolls in
favor of American ships plying only
in the American coast trade. We im
agine Sir Edward to feel the insecur
ity of his premises and conclusions,
and we suspect that the pressure which
has placed him in such a weak posi
tion is more colonial than domestic.
Under the peculiar system prevail
ing in New York a citizen buys police
protection just as he buys any other
commodity, and it is subject to the
same fluctuations that is, it keeps
getting higher and higher.
Demacratic congressmen are about
to hold tariff hearings. They should
open each session by reading the con
stitution which, their platform asserts,
forbids protection. This claim should
now be verified or dropped.
As the Panama zone is our possess
ion it is not easy to understand why
the shores of our canal are not part
of our coastwise property.
Foreign trusts waste time when
they look to the United States as a
field for their operation by treaty or
any other device.
