.'.T THE "iSTHMIAN CANAL MUDDLE.' ,
HE PRESIDENT has secured the resignation of
. the Panama canal commission, and can,, appoint
. , new men, though it seems that under the law he
cannot cut down the membership from seven to three, as
he desires. -While such, a great work "must in thetnature
of things, move slowly, yet there seems to oe no really
good reason for the dallying and delays which have at
tended the course of events. The commissioners appear
to have been inclined to nurse a fat and' comfortable job
and to avoid coming-to any decision about anything as
long as possible, lending support. to the suspicion that
influence of the transcontinental railways is still power
fully at work to delay if not to defeat the construction of
the canal,, There, seems to ,be no certainty or even pros
pect of ah' early decision as to the nature of the work to
be done that is, whether it is to be a sea-level canal, or
one of a 30, 60, or 90-foot summit level. It seems that
the Spooner act does not authorize thet president to
change the plans and dig a sea-level canal, and that if this
course is to be decided upon there will have to be further
legislation apiLappropriationby-congyeti, and yctcon-

the character of the canal, except that it "shall be of suf

- A -lock canal was contemplated, and a sea level cans)
seems to have been an after-thought, possibly prompted
by anti-canal influences, for the commission has ap
parently changed Its opinion' and recommendations at
various times, as in fact it did about the location of the
canal The Spooner act limits the cost of the canal to
$145,006,000, but a sea-level canal, it is estimated, will cost
at least $100,000,000 more than this. So the whole pro
ject is in a chaotic conditionthough the president, chaf
ing, at the delay and anxious to have the work go for
ward, may assume the power to go ahead with it. on
plans. At any rate, he ha got rid of
the do-nothing commission, and will doubtless do what
ever lies in his power to carry out the will of the people.

j In the general dlaeuaslon of Harvard
nWnces following President Eliot's re
port and the statement of th plan
among Harvard alumni to raise tl.l00.-i
000 to increase college aalarlea, attention
haa been ' called to th large proportVJe
of unendowed professorships at Harvar.l
ss one reaaon for the drain upon the
funds of the college, , ,
Ia Germany, tbe stats practically sup
ports It university professors; in Eng
land, there hare been royal grant and
private endowment ever eince tbe. foun
dation of the colleges. Ia this country
Harvard haa grown almost entirely by
privet gifts, restricted for. th most
part to special purpose, y
Compared with th Engtlah university.
Harvard represents a different develop
ment,' ana tee present need or endowed
profeaaorshlpa grnws'i-out of this dif
ference. ' Th college that constitute
Ox f otd have no place in their courses of
instruction for many .of the, subject
Hiuim i xiarrmm twuticai economy,
govepaparnt, architecture, landscape ar
chltecture, fore'.ry,.' . r'neerlng and
others. -,...
The. American college thus stands In
closer touch with the dai.y life and
thought el the nation and au auppott
not only, a growing force ef teacbtk
but alap en executive equipment ot
laboratories, apparatus and special col
lection. ,v ' --s '
. Fund given to th college for the en
dowment of exlatlna professorships are
therefore equivalent to an unrestricted
gift for while,, on th on hand, the
money Is restricted to nlaotnar Instruc
tion on a permanent salaried basis, it
eels free tha amount already being paid
for that salary. '
Harvard last year paid for Instruction
43rtlt.e and to do this bad. to draw
upon the college capital. ' "
Thla list ot unendowed professorships
includes 41 full pro feasors nearly two
thirds of these in th faculty ef art
and .. science and an even longer list
of assistant professorship. What la
even more remarkable, it number prac
tically all the aubjecta that would eem
moat likely to have received; endowment
long age. la college circle thla matter
ef endowment la essentially aomethlng
more than an assurance of aa Income
it Is a Special honor held In regard by
men to whom many et the prise for
which other men etrlv are matters or
indifference and who have often devoted
to pur science, to knowledge for lta own
sake, abilities that would have given
them fortune if applied to money mak
ing activities. v. ,....''.
.Caaee - have bee known "where Har
vard professors have preferred an en
dowed chair, in which the Income, was
comparatively small but stood aa a me
morial to some college benefactor or to
aome worthy - nam In the branch
of ' learning y In which' the ' Incum
bent waa naturally moat Interested, to
a chair, las rich inr .tradition - althougb
carrying a larger salary. ' -
The memorial character and traditions
of aa endowed professorship are there
fore its .aup rem distinctions although.
so far these memorials at Harvard have
stood rather for college benefaotors than
for famous . names in . art- science or
education. . : ''' -! '. '''
.The Asa Gray . profesaorahip of aye
tematle ' botany la one ef the few In
which tha name of great acientiat has
been perpetuated, and ia suggestive of
the kind ot endowed profesaorahip for
which every department of tha oolleae
offer opportenitlea. j Th Hollls pre
fessorshlp -of ssathematlcs and natural
philoaophy, founded -la 1T2T, stands aa a
reminder of one of Harvard a most gen-
erou friend la . the early eighteenth
century. -. The Hancock profesaorahip of
Hebrew' and other oriental languages.
founded by Thomas Hancock In 17 IS.
waa th first chair established by any
American In an American college. . ..
Kvea more - important . perbapa than
this memorial character la the list ef
men who have occupied tbe endowed
chairthe character ef the professorship
giving reality to these figures ot the
past end making -their I teat successor
alive to the honor of succeeding tbam.
In the Smith professorship of T French
nd Spanish language aad bailee lettres
on find such name Tlckaor, Long
fellow aad IjOwelL and there ia no en
dowed chair at Harvard a list of wheee
occupants doe not Include men of na
tional and eholaatto importance. ' '"" .
An outcome ef endowment of profes
sorships would be tbe raising of Har
vard salaries, sad .such, a movement
haa wide lntereet. for It. wilt undoubt
edly ceil ' attention more than haa yet
been don to the - Inadequate pay -.of
teacher throughout the country, and to
th fact that remaneratiea tor ell forma
of Intellectual work haa lagged sadly
babied the advance ef pay during the
last half century for tndustgal and
commercial workers. ;i ' V.
