Why, weare| opening the gizzard of his Thanks- already casting lots to see who will| giving day fowl a few weeks ago dis- go through it on the first ship ” That ts the way Arnold Shanklin, consul general at Panama, views the problems of the big ditch. “No problem at all,” said Mr. Shank- lin, who is at the Baltimore. “In the words of Speaker Cannon, It’s just a ‘question of digging and damming.’ Why, we have a canal there now, only {t isn’ deep enough for our pur- pose. The earth has been turned every inch of the way from Colon to Panama, and {t’s only a matter of making the ditch deep enough for the heaviest battle ship that floats, and that, we estimate, will be done sometimein the term of the man who is elected President of the United States in 1912.” HE'S WALKED OVER THE ROUTE Mr. Shanklin, who was appointed by President Roosevelt two years ago, was formerly a Kansas City at- torney, andat one time was asso- clated with Judge Elijah Robinson as attorney for the Missour! Pacific here. He came from the isthmus a week ago un business connected with the state department, and 1s spend- ing a few days in this city. “While I am not connected with the canal zone in any way,” he said, “you can well understand thas ‘the ditch’ {s the chief thing that engages the attention of a government offi- cial anywhere in the 10-mile strip. 1 am stationed at Panama, but I have walked over the entire route of the canal, and {n common with the 41,- 000 men employed on the job, I have formed an opinion of {t—that {t fs the most gigantic task ever under- taken anywhere and that {¢ will re- main forever a monument to the genius and daring of the American people.” NO YELLOW FEVER IN PANAMA. “When I went to Panama two yearsago it was pesthole. To-day itis@ typical American city, clean, well paved, .orderly and healthful. In two years there has not beena case of yellow fever in Panama, There are 4,000 Americans employ- ed in the zone and they are as healthy and well cared for as any four thous- and Americans in any city in the country. When the work on the canal began the government had to advertise to get men to go to the isshmus. To-day so many Ameri- cans are going there in search of positions that they are a source of embarrassment to canal officials, That tells the story of what has been done in the zone to safeguard healsh.”’ Badly Mixed Up.

ARBUCEL™ BROS., Now York City. of the District supreme court cited George B.

The citation issued by Justice Gould {s based on @ petition filed by George W. Austin of New York, who describes himself asa taxpayer and property owner in the United States and who declares he made a propos- al to purchase bonds of the adver. tised issue of the face value of 8 mil- Hon dollars.
