ASTORIA, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, JULY 23, 1884: PKICE, FIVE CENTS. t-r ' - THE PANAMA CANAL. No great enterprise of the ::e had been so variously represented and misrepresented as the Panama canal. At least five times it has been con demned as impracticable by its ene mies since nhe work wis fairly start ed, and any number of limes before it was otarted. The reassurances of De Lesseps have overcome the influ ence of these condemnations excry time, and all the money he required to prosecute the enterprise has been forthcoming up to the present day. Now comes what is evidently intend ed either as a settlor in the way of condemnation or a "bear" movement against the stock. If the report is true the job ought to bo abandoned at once. If it is false it is a very wicked falsehood. But true or false, unless it is promptly contradicted by De Lesseps and his subordinate en gineers with the clearest proofs of the falsehood, it must seriously im pair tho market value of the stock and militate against the grand army of investors. The report hi brief is this : De Lesseps estimated the cost of the great ditch at $120,000,000. Kir, subordi nates said 108,000.000. On his own estimate the money so far invested has been secured. It is now found that the route of the cut in the cen tral or ridge section must be changed from the point of extreme depth 283 feet- - on which the De Lesseps esti-! mate was made, to another point of j 363 feet depth, making a difference of 40,000,000 cubic meters, which is equal to 52,500,000 cubic yards. This extra work is estimated to cost $G2, 000,000 in gold. But this is not the whole sum of the reported error in j the De Lesseps estimate of $120,000, 000. There is another one involving an extra expenditure for the system of docks and wharves at both ends of ' the canal which exceeds the original ! estimate by $30,000,000. The two errors amount to $93,030,0K); added ' to the original estimate this will raise the cost ol the canal to $213,000,000, inofarwl nf 41io510n MfYl M!V1 nf nrirrmnl- ly estimated cost on which the mon ey Jias so far been advanced for the prosecution of the work. AU DUlJUil' VI L U"i UUU1 v IUIO 1 u - port it is said that the De Lesseps ' patimfito -wris hnsprf mi n. iilnn for :i perpendicular cut in the central or deep section, where the walls would have to be 283 feet high, or deep, from the summit to the bottom of the canal; but that experience shows that perpendicular walls are imprac ticable and that there must be a slanting cut of not much less than four feet slant to one foot perpendic ular. It is inconceivable that any great engineer should fall into an er ror like this in so stupendous and costly an enterprise. A perpendicu-: lar Wall of 283 feet, the lniterial of it being shale or talcose slate, or other soft and half-formed rock, and the whole length of it subject to the ac tion of heavy tropical rains for many weeks together, slides and caves of these high banks would be a perpet ual menace to vessels navigating the canal, entailing enormous bills for damage to the ships and their cargoes, and still greater ones for clearing away the debris deposited in the bed of the canal, stopping or obstructing its navigation- We say that it is ut terly inconceivable that De Lesseps or any sane engineer should have reck oned his estimates of the cost of the work on any other plan than for slop ing banks wherever the ,cut is to be as much even as fifty feet deep above the canal level. -Only a crazy man would estimate on perpendicular walls ofhe height of 2S3 feet under such conditions of rock and climate. And so we cast this part of the re port aside as unworthy of belief, for De Lesseps is not a rash fool, but certainly a great and careful engi neer. Women at the Coke Funmres. Scbaxton, Pa. Ex-Mayor Powder ly of this city, General Master "Work man of the Knights of Labor, who has just returned from a trip to the Connelsville coke region, says that he never believed such degradation pos sible as he had witnessed among the Hungarians in that portion of Penn sylvania. The condition of the women who worked at and around the glowing furnaces, doing tasks that would try the stoutest men, he describes as being most lamentable, and surpassing in grim realism any thing he had ever heard or read on the subject. He says: UI had often heard of the employment of women at the coke ovens, but never had an op portunity of seeing it before. The women are not employed by the cor porations, as some persons suppose, but they accompany their husbands and fathers to the ovens early in the morning and assist in -drawing and forking coke. At G o'clock in the morning I went to the coke works, and there I saw that the stories that 1 had heard about this matter were not exaggerated. At one of the evens I saw a woman half naked drawing the hot coke from the chamber. She had no covering on her head and very little on her person. Her ap pearance was that of a person whose spirit had been broken by hardship and hard work. Her attire consisted of a coarse chemise and a pair of cowhide boots. In a freight car close by stood another woman forking the coke as it came from the car. Fork ing is the term used to indicate the disposition of the coke when it is thrown into the car. The person who does the forking throws the coal to either end of the car as it is wheeled in. The woman stood in the door way and was dressed in a rough, loose-fitting outter garment and an apron. Her. person from the waist up was exposed. When she stooped over to handle the coke she caught her hair between her teeth in order to keep it out of her way. Her feet were incased in a pair of heavy shoes, and her legs "were exposed from tho knees down. Her babe, which she brought to the works with her, lay in front of the car, with scarcely any covering except the shadow of a wheelbarrow which was turned up in order to protect the child from the rays of the sun. Many more such scenes met my view, and some of them were even worse than this. The opposition to thelluugarians amounts to a hatred which is liable at any time to buret forth into a blaze that may sweep them entirely out of the country.'' POLITICS. iNir.k Yoitic Jul 21 Delegate Ma lian of California, being interviewed, said: UA lot of demagogues in San Francisco raised a hubbub overButler and sent him congratulating messag es, promising the support of the Pf. ciGc slope, but their assurances were worthless. The 402 delegates who met at Stockton, were pledged to choose for the presidential candidate, first Tilden, second, Thurmau; and in no case, Field. Not a word was said about Butler. Cleveland will carry California because business is unsettled, and the community looks to the national government for re forms which will restore confidence and increase prosperity. It docs not believe that in the hands of a dema gogue like Blaine its interests will be subserved. We stopped at twenty-seven stations on our route, and at each there was a demonstration. True to our pledges, we talked up Tilden and' Hendricks, of course, but do you be-' lievc it. away ont there in the west j the voice of most of the people was ! for Cleveland. Every brakeman and j conductor laughingly told us that we ' would come over to Cleveland before the convention was over. It was a surprise to me to find that he had j such enthusiastic support so far away f from iiome. Kearney is keeping an intelligence , office. "Whatever prestige he had in the past is now lest: he has no follow-1 ing m California. "Whatever action ' he may take with regard to Butler , will have no effect on the politics of the state. 'The magnates of the rail-' road companies know Hendricks to be an honest man, and believe Clevc-. land to be the same. It is an honest belief that they will not interfere, but leave every man to exercise his own judgment Feeling well satisfied of thi, I can assure you that Pixley and ' others, who profess to know Califor- -nia's sentiment, are in error when ' the say that Cleveland and Hendricks ( will not succeed in the Pacific states, j Those who arc the fathers and pro- j moters of the Butler boom in Cali- j fornia arc not representatives of tho j labor element at all, and they will j have no influencing vole at all." j iiexdmcks ron civiii service m foicm. "Washington. July 21. Senator" Pendleton was interviewed the other ; day by the associated press, and the j main portion of the interview was I devoted to quoting from Hendricks' expressions with regard to civil ser vice reform. It has been suggested that Pendleton did this not without malice; that he, in fact, was himseli overthrown by the Democracy o! Ohio for his civil .serv!?-?'" refoni views, and that he d'jt '" id to force the Democratic dan aate for the vice presidency into an un qualified approval of precisely sim ilar views. He has apparently succeeded. as Hendricks, who was interviewed yesterday, comes squarely forward and gives ex pression to views of civil ser vice reform almost exactly as quoted by Pendleton. It can hardly be doubted that Hendricks has not done this with any too much willingness. He would have preferred, doubtless, to have not caused any discussion of his views on thi3 question, as pro nounced civil service reformers of the Pendleton style and expression are not much in favor of that party, who want offices. Pendleton, how ever, has gained his point, and tho democrats of Ohio must either act inconsistently by supporting a can didate for vice president who holds views for which they discarded Pen dleton, or treat that candidate as thev treated the senator. WEILS AND KEILS. 'Oh, it's all right' saiutlu3nin; lady. "This is tho way it gees: Tho moonbeams fall with silv'ry glint upon the bosky dell, The kissing winds of summer bear tho sound of tinkling bell.
