Our Triumph At Panama
Construction of the great com
mercial ditch at Panama is a:
triumphal achievement of w hich
every American has reason to
fed proud. But we have done
oiler things on the Isthmus as
! wonderful, as lasting and as
' l-er.ericial.
Charles Francis A Luns visited
the canal Zone not long ago, and
in the course of an address he
fore the citizens of Boston the
other day, he found occasion to
gutter words of most emphatic
praise for the singular achieve
ments i:i sanitation he had ob
served during his canal visit.
He stated specifically, among
health of the workers is the fact
which strikes the observant man
most forcibly and with a sense
of the marvelous. He saw no
tion gets more strenuous as time
advances.
Just now the Republican party
is getting busy looking out for
its next leader. There are two
prominent factors and as is oft
en the case there is disagree
ment. One portion desire that
we have another Taft adminis
tration, while the opposition
want Lal-dlet?e, so we have the
two factions operating in strong
opposition. One with its battle
slogan; "Taft and victory, La
FolUtte and defeat." while the
other side is just &s vigorous in
its campaign with the same
political campaign cry only it i
reversel, "Lal-oIIctte and vic
tory, Taft and defeat."
to superinduce.
; ' From the moment I reached
the Isthmus," says Mr. Adams,
"till the day I left, what most
impressed me was not the mag
nitude o: the undertaking, the
engineering and material dith
oukies encountered in carrying
it to a seccessf ul issue, nor yet
the administrative ability dis
played in overcoming these dif
ficulties, but the morale ap-
parent in those I encountered,
the high standard in their j hys-
' ical condition and the energy,
alertness and zeal with which,
amid tropical surroundings, all,
; from the highest to the lowest,
went to their work.
