{struggling for their liberties, tho viola-

ence and the contlnuauce by the Amorlcan
people in tho costly and ruinous path that
has brought other republics to ruin and
nhume, which will dishonor labor, place
Intolerable burdens upon agriculture and
fast en upon the republic tho shame of
what President McKlnley has so lately
and truthfully declared to he the criminal
aggression. But I think that it will be
wiseT lo have meetings of that character
n little later Instead of just now. 1Ve do
mot yet know whether Lhe present war
for the subjection of the people of the
Philippines is to cofitlnue indefinitely or
whether there Is to bo a speedy submis-
sion to the overwhelming power of tho
United States. It tho wur shall shortly be
ended we tfhall then be able to dlsouss
the question of our national duty tree
from the disturbing influences which ex-
ist always when tho country is at war.
If, on tho other hand, (If the war shall
bo long and nideflnitely continue, the peo-

a day of mourning and of special prayer the gulf Mexico by narrows of great

Saturday the governors of Kan*aa.
Texas and lA>ulsiana were at Port Ar-
thur and with them something like S,W)
visitors. These chief executives of the
states sailed !n state through the can'it ir:
a sea going tug from the ?nd of the nar-
rows out into the gulf of Mexico, arid
they could not but declare that theie
could be no failure and wished the en-
glnera good luck In the work thai they
had so boldly started.
HOW IT WAS DONE.
Carefully the attending representative*
of the canal explained how the work had
been done, but it required little explana-
tion. A suction burled one end In the soft
mud and harder clay In the right of way
and conducted "by means of a 16 inch r'P°
threw It to the right and the left. V.'hen
the dirt left the pipe It was thin mud. In
a day or two it had drained and baked
har as a brick. That was all there wds
to explln.
All own tlie plow line cr.glneers hud gore
with their plungers ascertaining through
what they must run. Earth and clay was
all tliat they encountered. It was to them
but a question of time and money; the
money was forthcoming and time as £•
way of running on. So the dredges b ga
their work and kept It up night ani
Stopping only on Sundays to rear. No
one Sunday did they work ail throng
their life on the canal until nine da\* as
when report had It that an injunction w
to be applied for, to prevent ^e tlnal
ting through of tho land and oonnec
of the water . Then the Sunday rule
the company was abrogated and i..e d
gun sot to work. A llt.le a.rip of 1
which had been decided to leave for
governors to spade themselves, after '
manner of driving tho last spike on rail
roads, was assailed by the dredges sly
days before the day appointed for t
ceremonies.
MAKES A SAFE HARBOR.
And the purpose of it ail is to enoourag
the marine business of the south. Suf<
anchorage Is what sail and steam ehi|
require. Sea room they call It. Dutiful a
a child when on the high seas, a vessel 1
as helpless as one When crowded. T:

AFTER DE DE86EPS.
De Desseps had said to the world that
a perfect ship canal should measure 18"
feet at the surface, be SO feet wide at tho
bottom and havo a uniform depth of 26
feet. Such a measurement, he said, and
every sailing master In the world has said
that he was riprht, would meet the require-
ments of the marine world. And the Port
Arthur people with much sagacity ad-
opted his figures. The dredgers were giv-
en those directions, instructed to follow
the plough line and the work begun.
When at first the fleet of dredges stuck
its prow into the field that was. and the
canal that was to be, it had before it tne
task of raising 14.t-i.936 cubic yards of
earth &0 feet square and reaching sky-
