In discussing the British protest against the exemption of American shipping from the payment of toIlH for tho use of the canal, Mr. Taft says tho irresistible conclusion to bo drawn from it Is that "although tho United States owns, controls and has paid for tho canal, It is restricted by treaty from aiding its own commorco in the way that all tho othor nations of the world may freely do." Tho president points out that tho rules specified In tho articles of tho treaty, which Is made tho basis for the British protest, wcro adopted by tho United States as tho basis of neutrali zation of tho canal and for no other purpose, and were not Intended to limit or hamper tho United States In tho exercise of Its soverolgn power to deal with Its own commerco, using its own canal in whatsoever manner it saw fit, Homesteaders Gain Point Under the Borah amendment to tho , sundry civil bill, finally agreed to by both branches of congress, homestead ers who mado filing prior to tho pass- ago of the three-year homostoad act and who fall to elect to complete proof under the original homestead law, will not bo prejudiced by reason ot tholr failure to so elect, and may procoed to perfect tltlo under tho old law.
