JHIB TANAMA CANATj.
TODAY It Is completed!
Tho huge ditch that Is the pride nnd pet or tho American people ns
no other Nntlonal enterprise or theirs hns ever been, Is rinlshed.
Americans wore Justly proud In 1800 over the completion or the first
transcontinental railway They had taken pride yenrs before in the fact
that It was an American who lnld the first cable under the Atlnntlc. But
neither or these nor nny other undertaking In which the Nntlon played
more or less or a public part had so appealed to tho pride of the Amcrlcnn
people or so gratified their sense of power for achievement as the construc
tion of the Pnnnma Cnnnl.
It hns boon dreamed for centuries. It hns been nttcmpted by many.
Kerdlnand do l.esseps, the Indomitable genius who had made Africa In ef
tect an Island nt Suez, tackled tho tremendous task, and the French, ns able,
patriotic and wealthy n peoplo ns any In Europe, had backed him to the limit.
In viiln. Orenms, heroic labors ns or Hercules nnd the lavishing or al
most limitless trensttre hnd all nllke Tniled. Ruin nnd death ruled nt Pnn
nma nnd snid to iiiaii: "Thou shnlt not!"
Undo Snni snld: "I will!" He took the shovel and pick or the pyg
mies and rcplnced them with the tools nnd rend-rock or the Titans. Ho
throttled the tropical diseases that mndo Pnnnma the white mini's grave nnd
transformed the cnnnl zone Into n home of health. He put nrnilcs or free
nnd well-pnld workers Into tho Held. He poured out money rroni his Btrong
box like waste water rroni Gntun Lake, Ho did the most tremendous job
since the Pharaohs built the pyramids; did It with Joy to the tollers and In
less ttmo thnu he had nllowed himselr.
Today the tremendous task Is completed. The Panama Cnnnl Is now
a fine and finished fact. No Nntlon thnt failed to feel elntlon over such
success u success, moreover, un'tnlnted with scandal or corruption would
bo human. Tho Joy of work well done is folt todny wherever n loynl Amcr
lcnn heart boats high with hope ror a future that will bo mndo more glor
ious us u result of the gigantic tnsk thnt was completed today.

Dave Holden Last Witness to
be Heard in Disbarment
Proceedings.
The hcnrlng of evidence In the
R. O. Graves disbarment proceedings
closed Inst evening, Dave Holden be
ing tlio last witness to bo heard. Mr.
Holden could not give much deflnito
testimony. He said that ho hud wit
nessed tho mutter through bis glnsses
from n distance of u half mile or
moro and later wont to the place nnd
saw where tho crowd had been stand
ing. Ho Bald that ho thought ho saw
sonio Indications or blood but was
not sure It was blood. A. J. Stephan
testified earlier In tho dny.
R. O. Graves yesterday took tho
stnnd hlmseir and testified. He said
thnt when ho ciiine down In tho morn
ing ho wns told about somo men go
ing to be deported and ho went along,
marched with tho crowd to tho city
Jail, then to tho boat and accom
panied tho boat to Jarvls lauding.
Ho snld thnt thoro wns no disorder
and ho could not remember the mimes
or tho men who accompanied them
out or tho Jnll. but snld thnt Mr.
Matson mndo n little fnrowell talk
In which tho men were Invited to
loavo and remain away until they
could return ns good citizens.
Ho Bald that heforo leaving they
wore given a lunch nnd somo tobacco
and nt Jarvls landing when Edge
worth told nbout being crippled they
offered to give blm money to hire 11
horse nt Holdon's to ride, or to pny
his rnro ir ho wanted to wait over
and tako tho stago.
Rov. A. F. UnBsford told a similar
Btory to Mr. Graves. Ho cald that
bo wna getting bin mall at the
po8tofflco when tho crowd enmo
nlong nnd ho Joined In. Tnoro wns
no mob or rowdyism. Ho wont
nlong 011 tho boat, thinking It I1I0
duty ns n pnstor, to do so. There
wns no vlolont talk, and nothing
wns dono that could offond nny
ono's Bonso of propriety. Ho Bald
that Roborts, 0110 of tho nion, after
ho Btnrted away nt tho, lnndlng
turned bnck with somo vllo remarks
and some of tho younger men fol
lowed blm nnd broug'.t him bnck
nnd threatened to duck him In the
Day, but thnt Graves nnd ot.iors
Etatod thnt 110 vlolenco would bo
pormltted.
Others testified that Graves when
nt tho Chandler hotel on tho morn
ing In question had rofused, when
asked by some, to act ns leader In
tho deportation.
On the whole, It is claimed
thnt tho evidence railed to sustain
McLaughlin's charges about Graven
being a leader.
McLaughlin was not present In
the afternoon, following the grill
ing cross examination by C. F. Mc
Knlght, one of R. O. Graves' at
torneys, In which McLaughlin told
of asking aid from tho County to
support his step-childron, although
he claimed to have been making irom
$75 to $125 per month'. Important
evidence by Rev. Dassford on this
point was not Introduced, It Is said,
concerning statements by the Mc
Laughlin's about his plan about this.
It will nrobably bo some time
before the Supreme Court hands
down a decision In the matter.

of tho Slaugh today received tho
following letters;
Letter Fiimi tluiinberlalu.
Senator Chnniberluln writes ns
follows;
"I am In receipt of your night
letter of tho 1st Instnnr, further
protesting against tho closing of
Mill Slough. In reply permit mo
to say that nfter having given the
matter my most earnest attention i
concluded that while thero wore
somo protests against the closing or
tho Slough the larger public In
terest scorned to demand that tiro
bill which was Introduced ror this
purposo ought to pass tho Congress
of ,tlro United States. To that end
I urged Its pnssago through tho
Senate and It did pass that body,
and Is now ponding In tiro House.
"I regrot exceedingly that thoro
was such a differenco of opinion
nmongst somo of my friends In ref
erence to the mnttor, and 1 have
simply undertaken to dlscbargo my
duty as host I could under tho cir

public Jinprovoment. Ttiro too
those who npprovo and those who
oppose, nnd wo nt this end of tho
lino can only form our own judge
ment from tho ovldonco hoforo ub

net accordingly. This hns been
tho enso In this Instance."
Letter From lliiwley.
Tho first one wns from Congress
man Hawley Bent to Mr. Frlodborg,
which Is aa follows:
"I havo glvon tho ' matters you
sent to mo In recloslng Mill Slough
my most caroftil consideration, In
connection with' tiro mnttor. Sonn
tor Chamberlain's bill, S. 707, which
nassed the Sonato Aug. 30, 1913,
provides that Mill Slough bo do-
clared non-nnviganio water oi uro
United States In conformity with
the recommendation of tho Depart
ment of War. That Is, the water
being declared, non-navigable, tho
matter Is then left to tho locality
to take such action as It may deem
best for the Interests of tho people.
Such being the situation, I do not
tee h'ow I can oppose tho legislation,
especially when the sentiment, as It
is represented to me by a very
large amount of evidence, appears
to overwhelmingly favor such action.
I am of course depending upon the
evidence submitted."
Two Arrests, George Rhea nnd J.
McGowan were the only two arrested
last night. Rhea refused to plead
guilty to the charge or intoxication,
but pleaded guilty to being out after
midnight without any cause there
fore. They wero told to get busy or
get out of town.
