In a word. ' It is the wane-earners p.per" and always a welcome v itor after vou have once te d it Our Unprotected Const. (New York Sun. The launching of the forth Ameri can Dreadnought, the Florida, re minds us that there is not a single battleship in commission on the Pa cific Coast or In Asiatic waters. Our sea power on the other side of the continent consists of armored and protected cruisers and gunboats. That being the case, would It not be well to give heed to the admonition of Brigadier-General Thomas M. An derson, F. S. A., retired, that "if it is the adopted policy of the govern ment to keep all of our battleships on the Atlantic seaboard, then at least the bulk of the army should be kept on the Pacific Coast?" General An derson, who led the land assault on Manila on August 13, 189S, has been arousing the people of the Pacific Coast to their defenseless condition by addresses and written articles. In a letter to the Portland Chamber of Commerce on April 23 he wrote: "Our military land forces on this coast I estimate from the last army list to be 10,000 regulars, exclusive of the staff corps. Of these approx imately 4600 are In the Department of the Columbia, including those in Alaska. Of 4000 organized militia there are 1500 in Oregon and Wash ington and 2500 in California. This makes an apparent force of 14.000 soldiers. From this must be deducted 5000 men segregated for the coast defense batteries and forts. This leaves a field force of 9000 men to defend 1500 miles of sea coast, and which, on account of geographical conditions, must be divided into three detachments." - General Anderson went on to say that only 40,000 regulars are avail able, outside of our dependencies, to repel invasion of the Pacific Coast, and that only 75,000 militia could be counted on to reinforce the regulars "In one month at the best," since It takes eight days to transport an in fantry regiment with field equipment across the continent, and 14 days for a field battery or squadron of cav alry. In an article in the May number of the Pacific Monthly General An derson sounds the warning that if the American people are to feel se cure from attack on the Pacific Coast in the future they must resort to "obligatory training for manhood military service." What is our con dition? he asks. We are strong in battleships, but "when a nation be gins to build Dreadnoughts it Is a plain indication that it dreads some thing." Captain Mahan In his sevi eral books on sea power has lulled the country into a false security, General Anderson submits. People say that the navy will neVer let an In vading force approach the coast, for getting that the United States has two coasts, one of which has always been unprotected or inadequately guarded. At the present time It Is the Pacific Coast. It Is idle to contend that the cruiser squadrons In its waters could prevent the landing of a Japanese army convoyed by a great battleship fleet. "It is not true," maintains General Anderson, "that the results of great wars have been decided by liaval victories. The final results (have always been achieved by vic tories on land." That was certain ly the case In the titanic struggle be tween Japan and Russia: and al though General Anderson cbii not I b accepted as Captain Mahan'.s peer us a military historian, it Is not to be doubted that In the event of a I conflict between the United States and Japan when the battleship fleet 'whs on the Atlantic Const a rapidly 1 executed lnnslon by the enemy tn fore would achieve Rome very far i"!i''blng and demoralizing results If they were not final. While there Is not a cloud the sl;'e of a man's hand on the Far East ern horizon and American relations with Japan are most friendly and full of promise of continued amity, It Is tiroper to applaud General Anderson for telling the American people that they fall In a patriotic duty to them R'dves when pre"autlonu are not' taken to prepare for an Invasion that may never come, but that might have ruinous consequences If t surprised them without arms In their hands which they knew how to use effect ively In the emergency. Surely his proposal that the greater part of the regular army In the continental t'rlled States be stationed fin the Pa cific slope Is worthy of the general staff's srlous consideration, what ever may be thought of his plea for some form of compulsory military training. the channel Is dredged to 45 feet. At full tide the Pacific is 10 feet above the Atlantic, and at low tide Is 10 feet below the Atlantic. The Chagres river has been practically burled In the Gatun lake. The rain fall last season was the heaviest re corded for many years, and raised the river over 39 feet in a single night, but this would make only a rise of four Inches In the lake. Observations show that the annual rainfall of the watershed of 1200 square miles Is much more than sufficient to keep the. lake well supplied with water. National Magazine. Tide at the Isthmus. The Atlantic entrance of the Im ama canal Is at sen level, has an average depth of 41 feet and the nverng" tide Is not over 1? Inches, or one foot. On the Pacific side the tide ranges as high a 22 feet, and Gov. Hugos Favors Primary Law. Governor Hughes of New York sent a special message to the legislature on Tuesday of this week urging the enactment of a direct primary law. That portion of the message reads as follows: "I recommend for your considera tion the amendment of the law relat ing to primaries, the making of suit able provision for direct nomination of candidates for public office and In connection therewith provisions for representative and responsible party management. "The people are dissatisfied with present conditions and demand & change. "Whatever may be said of the Im perfections In the laws relating to this natter In other Jurisdictions, this can be no justification that the laws reflect a wholesome Bentiment which Is country-wide and cannot be denied."

Dated June 10, 1910. D. O. HAYES, Administrator. Garfield's Son Expelled. John Garfield, a senior and son of James R. Garfield, former secre tary of the Interior, has been expelled from the Taft school by Horace Taft, the principal, a brother of President Taft. With Garfield went Harry Crocker, of San Francisco, and Frank Andrews and John Dunham, both of New York. The prank for which pun ishment was meted was the decora tion of the soldiers' memorial shaft In the middle of town with the school colors. Garfield was to have been graduated next week. The otherB were Juniors. Had Principal Horace Taft consult ed his brother, President Taft, he might have told him that under the circumstances It would have been better policy to have administered some milder punishment. The question naturally will be. asked If young Garfield had not been a son of his father would he have been expelled? War Telegraphers Burred. Hereafter telegraph operators who served In the federal army during the Civil war will not be burled In the national cemeteries, The gov ernment has ruled these men were not enlisted soldiers but employes of the quartermaster's department.
