Unavoidable Suspicions.
FOR AT LEAST a quarter of a
century a large majority of
the people of the fnlted
States have wnntetl a tran
lthmlan canal to facilitate travel be
tween the Atlantic nnd Pacllie sen
hoards nnd between the remoter shores
of thiHe gieat commerce-beat Ins
oceans. For at lenst a quntter of n
cenur they have been willing that
their government should build such a
(onnectlng waft way at thelt expense
nnd while wanting the wotk done
economically they have not haggled
over, the cost. During the whole of
thlsf.tlme the attitude of both of the
lending political parties by which the
government Is can led on has been as
serHyely favorable to the canal's con
etruCtlon. Platform after platform
has demanded It. Candidate after can
didate has Indoised It. President after
president has recommended It to con
gress. Vet every time thnt a move
has been made, It has somehow been
Mocked. Our political history shows
no parallel case of public sentiment
belnsr so continuously nnd emphatically
onei way while the trend of manipula
tion has been so long successful In
the opposite direction.
Now by way of climax conies the re
port'from New York, ct edited by "Hol
land? one of the most trustworthy
of Iw York correspondents, that the
latedt superfluous canal commission
the second or third dnce the subject
nrose which vvns created by the last
congress manifestly for purposes of de
lay, ihtm decided to recommend the
abandonment of the Xlcaingua canal
project, and the purchase by the
United StntCB of the plant, concessions
nnd charter of the Panama corpora
tion. Many pluuslble reasons ate giv
en In the literature Inspired by the
latter company for In selection In
preference to the other route; but It
would be difficult to make the aver
nge man believe that a proposition at
hlh Ute day to switch over from NIc
airacua to Panama if not conceived
and ttrtred with n vltv to nddlllnnal
po.tponment of any canal whatever.
It would nut be believed that the
memht'M of the present commllon
could be innai otil) swerved fiom n
r;en of their duty In the pirtnlsr,
but tllo SUipli louwotiltl fntrn. In spile
of their hlRh eh.irnctrt, that shrewder
mind than theim had cleerl effect
oil an Itirllnatloti of JutlKinent which
would n practical conscriuences make
for mote coufuloti nml delay.
Por It must he borne In mind that
the l'ananin canal company Is virtually
bankrupt nnd In tecelsei' hands.

A Necessary Lesson.
NO OX1-: ran be wnrprlsod nt
the ilotermliintlon of the
Ametlrun Tin Plato com
pany to have no further
dealing with the Amalgamated asso
ciation. Tltn latter made with the
fotnier ,i lonttact for a tnr and be
fotc the Ink on It w.im dt deliberately
btoke It by going on ittlkf. Murines"
c.itmot be conducted on such .1 basis.
John .Mitchell -ecs lhl nnd has sound
ed nn lmtueslve warning, other wipe
leaders of labor, like Chief Arthur and
Chief Sargent see it nnd, It N tepoit
ed.have Infoimed Shaffer of the danger
of hi way. The Aineilcan Tin Plate
company, whatever Its limits, keeps
ItH ugi cements. This may In part be
11 vltltie of necessltj. If It btoke con
li.icift It lould be stfd nnd mulcted
In tho courts.
Hut whatever the ti.isons that Impel
It to live up to Its agreements. It Is
within its right and cle.trl.v Justltletl In
iefii"lng to hold further dealing with
.1 l.i bur oigunlzatltin with which
solemn inntracts have no binding I
foice. This lutue mtnl be met in thl
count 1 y and as well now as later. It
l ax Impoitaiu for the welfaio ot the
woiklngman a for the welfare of the
emplove- that lalmr union oltlclals
lacking In regaid for their wiltten
wind shall bo deprived of tin it power
to make ttotihle. Such men lire as
little to be tit)tcd by their followers
iih by the employer-! whom they seek
to coeice, A rocognl70d pilnclple in
law H that he who Is fnle In one
thing is fnlo In all. The labor leader
who will not respect n contract with
nn emplojer will not respect nn obli
gation to his constituents
Nor In the position of Chief Sargent,
that other organizations of labor must
by their conti Ibutlons of money,
hi-lp to defend Sli.iffei's union In Its
false attitude lest Shaffer's defeat
might teact to their disadvantage,
well taken. Tne very Hist thing
necessary to establish a labor
organization In the public te
spei t Is to show, not only by
Its deodu, but also by Its .sympathizers,
that It tunnel's for fidelity to contracts.
If Shaffer, ct. nl., have broken con
ti u-is they have committed nn as
sault upon the title interests of organ
ised labor far moie serious In Its con
.setiuences than any linmedlati Injury
inflicted upon the steel trust. Instead
of shielding them thte-e lendeis of
l.ibor who have labor's wtlfnic slticete
ly at henit should be the tlrst to de.
iimince their course at not sanctioned
by organized laltor In general nnd n.
hostile to the Intent of th labor union
movement.
Where then- l.s a ban el of applet
nnd some of the upplrn become totten
it Is nor ssary to sncrlflco tho totten
npplcs to save the good ones. Thli
exactly Illustrates the position in which
American labor union Htaiid nt the
piesent time. The ooutrnct-hreakrrs,
the practitioners of Intimidation and
lawlessness, those which undeiinke to
denv to vvoi Iters not on their member-
h.p tolls thr right to earn nn honest
living, must bo cast out and teptiili.it
el el.vt t l.o whole cause of otganized
labor will fall under public repromh
and the bad In It will choke out the
good.
It Is to be hoped that the latest
trouble about the Golden Hotn will
not ngaln lead tho powers to the ul
tlmutum habit.
