HE preeent ry arrest of Pollok and the reported restlessness T of other witnesses wanted in the Rosenthal case are only se many more proofs that Becker should be tried witlf all possible promptness, Day after aay of tortuous investigation, fresh devices of delay and complication, charges and reeriminations among Mayor, Aldermen and counsel, only befog and belittle the question of who Js responsible for the shooting of Rosenthal if the early morning of July 16. In the shift and change of events public interest and indignation eannot long remain fixed, Already one hears the man in the strect apeculating half indifferently how long Becker's lawyers will manage to “hold it off.” An accused man should have every reasonable chance to get together evidence needed for his defense, But what is the real end and aim of court dodging and technicality weaving? Is it ever to hasten justice? A recent sharp letter to the State Bar Association on “causes lead- ing to the present discontent with our judicial system and the manner in which justice is administered,” seored the “law's delay” in words that cannot be too often repeated: All the chances of delay favor the criminal and encourage the criminally minded, Evidence dutta with lapse of time, wit- nesses die or disappear, popular indignation, the prime support of prosecutions, evanesces and gives way to suapicion that justice has-deen defeated by waye that are bad, with consequent die affection toward the courte and officers of the law, the very machinery instituted among men for protection of the inno. cent and punishment of the guilty. _. The aptness of these words when applied to the Rosenthal case is only too plain. Becker's trial is now set for Oct. % Let there be no question of further postponement, and let no witness who is wanted on that day be found to have been “coerced” or otherwise put out of reach. et WHY NOT GO AFTER IT? HE announcement that by Oct. 15, 1918, the first vessel oan sail through the Panama Canal makes the accomplishme:t of the great task suddenly seem very real and near. By De- cember, 1914, merchant ships will have unrestricted use of the new waterway. The Western passage to the Orient which Columbus and the others sought and died in seeking will come true after all. There was none—so we made one. But this is no time for sentiment, says Director John Barrett of the Pan-American Union. Only a lot of hustling is going to save this country from being left far behind in the race for Central and "South American trade, The nations of the world have not been slow to eee the possibilities of the Canal. Mr. Barrett describes what he has seen going on in Europe, in Japan and in South America itself. His picture is a lively one. All the principal European countries, Germany especially, are improving their ports, tinkering their dhipyards and steamship lines, establishing benking and business relations with South American merchants, teaching South American geography in the achools and being as polite as ever they can to South America and all its people. Japan has started three steamship companies for the South Ameri- can trade, China, Australia and Canada are planning lines of their own. Meanwhile the west coast of South America iteelf is “getting ready” to the tune of millions, Chili, Peru and Bolivia are spending fifty million dollars on railways, Valparaiso is to have a new fifteen million dollar artificial harbor. Ports in Ecuador and Peru are being similarly improved. On the east coast Argentina and Uruguay are spending thirty millions on Buenos Ayres and Montevideo.
