Wiw. lluit Ilin ih'IIIIiiiih sue In ill iiilnlloii rciitll!iK tin' Cuunill to mil :in eleiliou lo extend tin- city limits, It Ii worth while that the tax payer ot the city should look at the facta an they exist, without preju dice. Wo do not thlog there can I any doubt that the question of extending the city limits must be submitted to the voter of the prnt city nd to the territory proposed to be annexed, and that a separate role must be taken. Any attempt by the voter of tho city to force additional territory Into tho corporate limits, without giving the tax payers of the new ter ritory an opportunity to express their preference In the matter would bo un-American, unreasonable and un just, and wo do not bellete that such a proposition Is sound In law or In equity, and could not be sustained by any court. Almost Immediately upon the broaching ot the question by the city council, the citlxen and tax payer of the territory proposed tor annexa tion, expressed themselves almost un animously aicainst annexation, and notified the council that they would vote against such a proposition. That being the case, what possible advan tage could be gained by nn election? The city treasury Is empty, and the city 1 heavily In debt. An election would cost money and apparently In this case, would be a useless expendi ture, a the result Is already known. Why, therefore, go to the trouble and expense and excitement Incident to au election? No ono can deny that the financial condition of tho city Is unfortunate, but that la hardly a rea son for attempting to force addition al, and much of It unluiprott-d, ter ritory into the city for tho purpose of borrowing to pay the city's debt and make Improvement. Why should the property owner In the territory adlolnlng the city bo asked lo have their pioperty bonded for the pur I wise ot paying the old city's debt? What is offered or to be ottered In exchange for this Incumbrance upon their property? No citizen of Klam ath Fall would think of asking his neighbor to help him pay hi debt or allow him to mortgage their prop erty to raise money for hi benefit. No more can the city of Klamath Falls, In justice, ask the outlying territory to assume part of Its Indebtedness.

This leaves only 39,6rS.S:2 cubic junta yet to bo removed, lex than half of the total. In view of the fact th.it 11,11,488 jards Here tnken out Inst J ear after the Americans had gut tbelr machinery In operation and their organliatlon perfected, the In dications are that, al the riinie rate of progress, thu Culebrn Out will be completed In three jears unil a lialf In thu opinion of engineers that will fix tho dnto for tho completion of the entire canal In other words they think that the work nn the oilier section will be so timed as lo be fin.

John Temple Grates, the Indepen dence parly's nominee for t Ice-president, has Issued a signed statement In which he replies to thu charge made by Thomas K. Watson that tho Independence party Is nw ned and con trolled by W. It. Hearst. In part, Mr. Grave says: "It Is, to say tho least, ungracious In Mr. Watson to speak of the Inde pendence party as a one-man party. He ha made of tho Populists far more a one-man parly than the Inde pendents ever hate been or ever will be. Ho has been as many liint-H tint defeated candidate of the Populists a Mr. Ilryan has been of the Demo crats. It seems lo be. by the official records, the one man In it as abso lute as Ilooscvclt, as dictatorial as Bryan and as unsuccessful as tho last. Ho prescribes Its tenets, dic tates Its policies In things personal and otherwise, and Is Invariably nam ed as Its candidate." J1IGGK8T KI.KrilA.NT IS lKA. In the digging ot Ibe Panama Ca nal It has always been considered that, outside ot the construction of the big lock and dam work, the chief difficulty to be encountered is the great cut through the backbone of the American continent at Cule bra. The problem was there present ed of removing a mountain and by Ibe aid of modern steam shovels, drill and dynamite the sojutlon la being rapidly worked out. In fact, according to Information which ha reached tbe office of the Isthmian Canal commission, over one-half of tills great work has, now been com pleted. ' Tbjs great cut through the hill and mountain extend a distance of nine and one-half miles. At the highest point the original surface of the ground was 300 feet and a hole from 430 feet to 1000 feet.wlde and 110 feet -dp'i -Mag" dag 'there.
