Senator Foraker of Ohio made a strong speech in the exeeutive session of the senate Tuesday in defense of the | Hay-Pauncefote treaty. The salient point of his speech was that the treaty follows historic its, that the neutral policy had heen the pelicy of this country in the pust. The state- ment is incontrovertible, Henry Clay, as secretary of state in the administr | tion of Joln Quincy Adams, said in ref- erence to an Isthmian canal, discussed at that early date in our history: “If the work should ited xo as to adwit of the passi s from ocean to ocenn, the benetits of oughit not to be exclusively appropr | to any nation, but should tended to all parts of the upon | the payment of & just compensation or reasonuble tolls” On Mareh 3, 18 | the United States senate unanimously | adopted solution requesting the | president to consider the expediency of ning negotiations with the govern- | ments of other nations and particularly | those of Central Ameriea, “for the pur | pose of effectually protecting, el or he e vessol one he by suit- time ng | | a law which will amount to a practi | able treaty stipulations with them, such | THE OMAHA In «ub 1 whi ng the P'olk (his tre treaty to t sald that the ultimate objec to all nations the and f passage over the jsthmus It was formity with these unvary ceedents that the Clayton-Bulwer was concluded ratified and treaty of article of Foraker 1ty exists mit sennte det t nre froe equal right of 1 col and in the an enator treaty they were kept in view Nicaragua L quoted 1 pledged the United 8t protect all such routes as were referred to in the ud to guarautee their neutrality It will thus be that Secretary Hay, as Mr. Foraker said, “had merely acted in accordance with the established policy of the government in providing tor neutral rights fn the proposed water way." 1o regard to fortifying the canal, the Ohfo senator thought it absurd to stippose that an enemy would attempt to sall its ships through a canal 175 miles long and owned, controlled and e this country, when actual lostilities were in pr A vote will be taken today, with what result It ted it will leave ti If ratiied it Bulwer treaty in muist weeepted by the British gov ernment before hecoming operative, In negotiations will with trenty soen by this gross, the unc Clagton on treaty either event further be necessary. FREE FIELD FOR FAKIRS The yellow journal fakirs never h a free field for working off their fabrications on the public s 1s offered by the impending contest for the two United States from Ne- bras Such un opportunity to exert thelr imaginations by ringing the changes on thelr own inventive genius presented that they are bound to make the most of it.

Within the next ten days a hun- dred more alarms are sure to he sounded by our sensational contemporaries, all purporting to come from the ground o the inside.
