LID OFF PANAMA CANAL
Attacks on Commission Force It to
Abandon Secrecy.
OR EG ONI AN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Nov. I A secretive pollc yhavlng
proven -a dismal failure, the Panama
Canal Commission has determined to take
the public into its confidence to a limited
degree, In the hope of allaying some of
the unfriendly comment that If going
the rounds. Incidentally the Commission
hopes to avert a congressional investiga
tion next Winter.
From the start the Commission, the
present body as well as that which im
mediately preceded, it. took the stand
that no information about conditions on
the isthmus or work on the canal should
be given . to the country save through
periodical reports to the Secretary of
War. Seekers after information were
turned away: all official Information
about progress at Panama was denied.
The result was that public men and the
newspapers sought their Information from
other sources; they nought out men who
bad been to Panama and the Informa
tion gleaned from such sources threw
much light on the situation and reflected
little credit upon the Commission. This
information was to the effect that no
progress was being made; that sanitary
conditions were wretched; that therehad
been mismanagement, if - not corruption,
and the impression prevailed that the
Commission had squandered $10,000,000
appropriated by the Iart Congress and
had little to show for It
Things became intolerable, and the
Commission was forced to speak In self
defense, especially when various Senators
and Representatives publicly announced
their intention of asking for a Congres
sional investigation. First it -was offi
cially declared that the sanitary condi
tions on the Isthmus were being mater
ially improved, and that the delay In get
ting down to construction was d"2 to the
urcparations for'tfte care of laborers" and
other employes. Then, to head off crit
icism because of the extension of the
elght-bour law to the canal zone. It was
announced that the digging of the canal
would be done by contract, thus avoiding
the eight-hour restriction; to answer the
charges of unnecessary delay and the pre
dictions of some engineers that the canal
would not be completed In 50- years, it
"has been officially declared that the
canal will be open to commerce not later
than 3935. ten years hence, and now
comes the assurance that the Commis
sion has only spent about $1,000,000 of
the $30,000,000 appropriated.
If the Commission is perfectly frank
and continues its plan of publicity, it may
escape a Congressional Investigation, but.
If It returns to Its old methods of aecrct
lvoness, tbere will be trouble In store.
The American people have become ac
customed to knowing how great public
works progress: they are used to hearing
how large sums of public money arc
spent, and when enterprises of this
enormity are put through under cover,
the American people become aurplclous.
particularly at this time, for there is a
possibility for graft under cover that
does not exist in the open. With Panama
thousands of miles away, there are ex
ceptional opportunities for corruption,
even when an open course Is pursued;
the American public won't stand for any
work in the dark, where Its hundreds of
millions are being spent in eo great an
enterprise. Publicity Is all that will save
the Panama Canal Commission from
scandal, and even that remedy may not,
in the end. be altogether tffecttve.
NO BILL, SAYS MR. BURTON
APPROPRIATIONS MUST STAY
AT LOWEST FIGURE.
Why No General Appropriation Will
Be Made for Rivers and Har
bors at Coming Session.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 12. The Post to
morrow will say:
No general rlvcr-and-harbor bill 'will be
passed by Congress at the approaching
session. This forecast was made by Rep
resentative Burton, of Ohio, chairman of
the rivers and harbors committee, before
he left Washington for Hot Springs, Va.,
for a short vacation.
There are two cogent reasons for not
enacting such legislation next Winter, ac
cording to Representative Burton first,
because a large bill passed last session
carried appropriations for all projects de
serving of immodiate attention from Con
gress; tccond, the necessity of holding
down appropriations to the lowest figures
to prevent. If possible, anothor deficit In
the Treasury.
ADMIT BUT ONE NEW STATE
Congress Likely to Heed Protests of
Two Bip Territories.
OREGONI AN NEWS BUREAT. WASH
INGTON. Nov. 12. When the Flfty
eighth Congress adjourned It was un
derstood that the Joint statehood bill
admitting two new states to the Union
-was to be brought forward first thing
in the coming Congress, and, in the
minds of the leaders, the belief pre
vailed that the much-debated legisla
tion would be put through after brief
debate. It appears now that this pro
gramme will not be carried out, and
thore is a strong probability that Con
gress will admit only one state, com
prising Oklahoma and Indian Terri
tory. When the omnibus statehood fight
bogan it was proposed to create three
new states the one named, a state of
New Mexico and a state of Arizona.
But great opposition was raised to
granting separate statehood .to New
Mexico and Arizona, and after two
sessions of fruitless effort it was de
cided to combine these great terri
tories and admit them as a single
state. But that plan failed, partly be
cause of honest opposition, but more
especially because the statehood bill
became a buffer and was used to kill
other legislation which the Republican
leaders of the Senate opposed.
In all the fight which has been made
on the statehood question, the opinion
has prevailed that the Senate commit
tee, on territories, whence originated
most of the trouble, did not know very
much about the conditions and needs
of New Mexico and Arizona. True, the
committee made a flying trip through
the territories, but it went there with
minds made up. and learned little of
actual conditions.
During the past Summer many in
fluential Senators and Representatives
have been to Arizona and New Mex
ico, and it is strange to note that those
men, who were not Junketers, all came
back with the opinion that the two
territories should not be Joined, and
with the further opinion that neither
should be admitted at this time. These
men, seeking accurate information,
were astonished to learn that the peo
ple of Arizona and the people of New
Mexico, that is. the better class of peo
ple, were not -clamoring for admission.
They found them content to remain
under territorial government for a
time, until they have developed suffi
ciently to Justify Congress In granting
them separate statehood. They found
the conditions In Arizona very differ
ent from conditions In New Mexico,
and. like the people of the two terri
tories, they realized the folly of cre
ating one enormous state of what Is
now Arizona andNew Mexico.
It is impossible to accurately fore
cast the result, when the statehood bill
comes to a vote, but It is evident that
the men who visited the terrlories will
make a fight against the Joint state
hood bill which was brought forward
last session, and which it is under
stood will again be brought forward
this Winter. Because many of these
men have attained prominence in their
respective houses, their arguments
will carry weight, and it is reasonable
to suppose that neither New Mexico
nor Arizona will have statehood forced
upon them. '
Separate statehood is out of the
question, under present conditions;
Joint statehood is obnoxious to the
people of both territories. Under these
circumstances, the problem can be
readily solved by admitting one state,
Oklahoma, with Indian Territory an
nexed, leaving the other territories to
develop.

PREPARING FOR. A CONTEST

Municipal Men.
NEW YORK, Nov. 11 The campaign
managers of the Municipal Ownership
League continued their activity today In
preparing the contest to be made before
the Board of County Canvasser." this week
on the Mayoralty election. The law com.
mlttee held Its quarters open and received
additional affidavits In alleged cases of
election fraud.
Twelve of the 5oceisful candidates for
Aldermen who were elected either on the
Municipal tlckefor Republicans who had
received the indorsement of the league
met at the Hoffman House for a confer
ence. It was decided by them to act as
a unit in the body, and by fusing with
the straight Republican Aldermen the
league hopes to control the board.
It was also decided at this conference
permanently to keep up the organization
of the league, and plans and policies for
future political action were discussed.
Mr. Hearst gave out a statement tonight
advising against the further holding of
mans meetings of protest "In the present
excited state of the public mind."

measures which the people have so em
phatically demanded."

which developed against the Republican
organization during the fight.
SENATORS WHO DISAGREE
Colleagues From Same State Are at
Daggers Drawn.
ORBGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. Nov. 12. The clash during the late
campaign between Senator Gorman 'and
Senator Rayner calls attention to the fact
that there will be .several states repre
sented In the next Senate by men who
personally or politically disagree. The
estrangement between Gorman and -Rayner
dates back some years; they have
never agreed politically, though both are
Democrats. It Is a notorious fact that
Rayner would never have been elected if
Gorman could have prevented it. but
Rayner's strong personal following over
came his colleague's opposition. The
Maryland Senators will not work together
for the interests of the state; they have
few views In common, and Maryland will
suffer.
Perhaps the most striking instance of
ill-feeling between the Senators from any
one state is in Wisconsin. Spooner and
La Follette will not mix any more than
oil and water. Thej are bitter political
enemies, and cacls harbors a personal
hatred of the other? Yot both are Re
publicans. Spooner Is against everything
that La Foltttte wants, and vice versa.
It is doubtful if these two Senators speak,
but it will not be the first time such a
thing has happened.
For more than a year prior to his re
tirement. Senator Chandler, of New Hamp
shire, did not speak to Senator Galllnger.
his colleague, though a truce was patched
up towards the end. a truc of short
duration. The Intense feeling between
Senator Tillman and his late colleague.
McLaurin. reached such a state that Till
man openly struck McLaurin. creating one
of the greatest sensations ever witnessed
on the floor of the Senate. Then there
was the case of Senator McBride and
Senator Simon, of Oregon. They never
openly clashed, but each had a knife out
for the other, and there were frequent
secret thrusts. In the last Congress the
relations between Senators Foster and
Ankeny were becoming quite strained, but
before a crisis was reached FoMcr retired.
One of the amusing cases of friction Is
the Ohio Instance,, where Fo raker and
Dick are arrayed against each other po
litically. Just as Hanna and Foraker were
prior to the death of the genial Mark.
Dick is carrying out the Hanna ideas,
which arc diametrically opposed to the
Foraker ideas. And yet. divided as are
the two factions in tho Republican party
in Ohio, neither makes a llfe-and-death
struggle to defeat the Senator favored
by the opposition; Hanna did not demand
Foraker's scalp: Foraker will not go out
of his way to get Dick's.
The two Senators .from Idaho are on
anything but friendly terms, personally or
politically. Ono is a Democrat; the other
a Republican. Naturally Hcyburn will do
his utmost to prevent the re-election of
Dubois, but Dubois in the meantime has
landed some sledgehammer blows, which
will hold down material obstacles which
Heyburn must overcome before he him
self can be returned. Heyburn and Du
bois profess to be personally friendly, but
it is all for effect. They do not visit to
gether; they do not mingle; they are far
apart. Dubois might make terms, but
Heyburn does not want to. and his col
league Is not In an insisting mood.
There are other Instances of similar na
ture, but these are the most pronounced.
Meanwhile the Senate derives lots of
amusement from the embarrassment of
Senators who are at outs with their col
leagues. PROSPECTS FLATTERING.

Eight-Hour Movement.
