CANAL IS KEY TO WORLD’S TRADE, SAY BRITONS British Paper Upbraids England for “Permitting” U. S. to “Make Profit of It.” LONDON, Sept. 17.—The London Out look devotes a large part of its space this week to attacks on the United States over Panama affairs, despite numerous warnings cabled from New York by cor respondents of the English press that unJess British criticism is modified Amer ican opinion will become unanimous in its support of the Panama act. Among The Outlook's articles is one headed, “The Apostle of Arbitration," which Is an attack on President Taft for his defense of the measure. This article ends: ■Mr. Taft will have to climb down from the extremely elevated position he has assumed. Happily, the American peo ple. to their great credit, have refused to support their president In his recent do ings.” The Outlook publishes a letter from Major General T. Bland Strange, in whioh he says: Key to World's Future Commerce. “Whoever holds the Isthmian canal of America will hold the key of the revolu tionized commerce of the world's future." This letter refers to “the monstrous ac tion of the United States, permitted by our present pusillanimous government, of putting warships on the Great Lakes, contrary to the treaty of 1817.” This letter concludes, "When a treach erous neighbor asks to be allowed to put a pistol to your head as a proof of amity, the man or nation that allows It has no brains worth blowing out.” C. H. Norman also contributes a war like letter, in which he says: “The United States may give way un der pressure of an armed and indignant Europe, but the advisers of President Taft will not submit unless they are sat isfied that there is something more than words in British protest.” Takes Comfort In Varilla Treaty. After editorially summarizing the views recently expressed by Bunau Varilla, The Outlook says: It appears then that If the United States break the Hay-Paunoefote treaty they also break the fundamental treaty which they entered Into with Panama. Suppose this last treaty were brought be fore the supreme court by the Panama republic. Thie court would have to do one of two things: It might annul the Panama canal act because It le against the Hay-Bunau Varilla treaty, which gives the United State* their title to the canal. If it uphold the Panama canal aot as entitling the states to make discrim ination of tolls in their favor against other nations, this would be taking away their very right and title to the canal it self under the Hay-Bunau Varilla treaty. "Dilemma of United States.” “This is the dilemma in which the United States are left. By the convention of Constantinople, included in the Hay- Pauncefote treaty, they must make equal and just charges on all users of the canal. The Suez Canal Company, having done so, may dfvlde Its profits, but the United States is not, or should not be, a com mercial concern. The states, however, are claiming the right to levy tolls to meet all charges of construction and maintenance and working and interest on capital on all ships but American; they make a profit out of the canal as well as unfairly burden their competitors. The more honest way would be to benefit their shippers by subsidy and not take the money out of the pockets of the rest of the world.” BINDER TRUST HEADS NOT TO GET CHANCE OF IMMUNITY BATHS CHICAGO, Sept. 17.—Cyrus H. Mc- Cormick, president of the International Harvester Company of America: Geo. W. Perkins, Charles Deering and others Instrumental in the formation of the company’s organization will not be called in the present hearing of the government's dissolution suit against the concern.

SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS ON GEORGIA POLITICS John Copeland, deputy commissioner of insurance, and, after the comptroller general, the head of the insurance bu reau of the state of Georgia, is the baby member of the official family of the state eapi tol. Mr. Copeland is just turned thirty, and is compara tively a young man for so re sponsible a posi tion: but he is widely experienced in the insurance business, and be fore coming to At lanta was con nected with the Empire Life, of Macon, as a star nr JAMS-3 E> XErvxyr man. He is a son of Hon. Frank Copelana. who several times represented Walker county in the general assembly, and Is now a practicing attorney in Rome. John Copeland Is an authority on rugs. Outside his official work, nothing so delights him as the science of rug ology. What Copeland doesn't know about rugs long ago was yanked out of the book, and now is past his finding out. When he moved into his quarters in the capltol some two weeks ago. he found things not much to his liking, so far as the condition of the same was concerned. The walls of the main room were dark and dreary; the floors were cov ered with a linoleum-like thing that surely had seen better days. Dust seemed more or less perfectly at home around and about the place, and —oh, worst of all!—not a rug was to be dis covered anywhere in his new vicinity of endeavor. Copeland got some painters, some scrubbers, some rubbers, and some dusters on the job, right off the reel; and pretty soon he had that old office looking as fresh and sweet as offices can be made to look—minus rugs! He took a day off when all the clean ing had been done and prepared to enjoy himself —he resolved to devote one entire Thursday to the selection and purchase of rugs. He ransacked every ruggery in the Gate City, from cellar to garret, hunt ing rugs that pleased his artistic eye and seemed most adapted to the ne cessities of his office. After buying more new rugs than had been brought into the state capitol before in all its ancient and honorable history. Copeland resolved himself into a reception committee of one—on rugs —and hiked back to the capitol to wait WILL PAPE'S DIAPEPSIN HEALEY CUREMYSTOMAGHTROUBLE?YES If your stomach is sick, sour, gassy and upset now you can surely get relief in five minutes.

That was a happy day for John Cope land—one of the very happiest he ever knew, or ever will know! No matter how heavy the work gets now or how difficult the insurance problem to solve, there are those pre cious rugs scattered about the place— and they are very soothing to Cope land's nerves, and keep him in a good natured frame of mind, no matter what happens. Representative H. W. Hopkins, of Thomas county, recently re-elected to the house, thinks it would be a good idea to have a "legislative day” at the Georgia state fair at Macon, and he proposes that members of the old house and members-elect of the new get to gether and arrange for the same. Hopkins’ idea Is that a very large percentage of the old membership, and practically all of the new. would be only too glad to enter into such an ar rangement. and that it would furnish a fine occasion and opportunity to get acquainted all the way around, to everybody’s pleasure and very great benefit. A number of members to whom Rep resentative Hopkins has talked con cerning his idea have expressed them selves as heartily in favor of it. and the suggestion doubtless will be car ried out. Mr. Hopkins thinks that Joe Hill Hall should be made the particular guest of honor on ‘legislative day” at the fair, and this further suggestion Is sure to meet with great favor. Comes the following inquiry to Side lights: Marietta. Ga., Sept. 15, 1912. Dear Sir—ln case Governor Brown should resign, to take ef fect immediately, would the Hon. John M. Slaton be governor? This being true, would he again have to call a special election to fill out the remainder of Governor Brown's term? Also, could he be a candi date for this unexpired term? MARIETTA READER. In the circumstances proposed. Slaton would become acting governor, just as he did when Hoke SmltW resigned; he would have to call another special elec tion to fill out Brown's unexpired term; and he might be a candidate for that unexpired term, If he so desired. In the event of a vacancy occurring in the governorship within six months of the expiration of the gubernatorial term, the president of the senate would become acting governor until a new term began. Says The Savannah Press: Hooper Alexander spent consid erable money in his race for gov ernor. but as most of it came from Hooper’s friends, he probably doesn’t feel so badly about It. Rather a back-handed swat at Hoop er, isn’t it'.’ meal, then take a little Diapepsin. There will not be any distress —eat without fear. It’s because Pape's Dl pepsin "really does” regulate weak, out of-order stomachs that gives it its millions of sales annually. Get a large fifty-cent case of Pape’s Diapepsin from any drug store. It Is the quickest, surest stomach relief and cure known. It acts almost like magic —it is a scientific, harmless and de lightful preparation which truly be longs in every home. (Advertisement.)

The entile machinery of the city de tective department is in motion today in a searching investigation of the charges made to Police Chief Beavers by Mrs. Hattie Barnett, woman detec tive, to the effect that unlicensed pri vate detectives are furnishing protec tion to illegal houses. Following his conference with Chief Beavers, Chief of Detectives Lanford gave all of his detectives specific in structions to spare no pains in arriving at the truth of the situation. As a re sult the workings of private sleuths will be closely scrutinized. So far Mrs. Barnett has had no fur ther conference with Chief Beavers, but she indicated she would within the next few days. This conference will be awaited witlt interest by the police of ficials, as Chief Beavers has informed her that he can not proceed without definite evidence, and Mrs. Barnett has promised “something more interesting." Both Chief Beavers and Chief Lan ford say they never have heard com plaint concerning any private detec tives. and that so far as they know the private detective business here is con ducted in a perfectly legitimate man ner. They say, however, that Mrs. Barnett's charges are of such a nature that they are compelled to make an investigation KILLS FATHER WHO WOULD NOT ALLOW GIRL TO MARRY LITTLE ROCK. ARK.. Sept. 17.
