Mr. Oacar Underwood aatd In hie speech on the Panama ("anal tolls question that 'the moat serious sur render that the advocates of the Brlt iah contentions desire to niakn la the admission that we are not sovereign In the Canal Zone " Mr Underwood knows very well what the I nitial Slates does not now want and never did want to bo sover eign in iho canal sons. Ho knows that this country has pledged Itself to certain regulations In the canal tone, which It cannot disregard, uni that it has never boon contemplated that we should exercise full sovereign rights over the canal We biiiH the canal under a restro tion upon our sovereignty, which wa« clearly understood and freely acceded to when the Hay-PanßCefote treaty was signed. We are comltted to cer tain other restrictions upon our sov eroign'y through our lease of the zone. Mr, Vndsrwood aprons th*t except fop fvittstwise shipping "the csniU shall be frwe and open to the vessels of commerce and war of all natlona on equal terms,” »s the treaty speci fies. The New York World points out that if we were sovereign over the canal rone we could exclude the ves sels of all other nations. We could make the canal Rn American highway open only to American ships. *<e could give American vessel* an abso lute monopoly of Its use. We could done it to everybody except our selves. The mystery seems to be that Mr. Underwood accepts certain restrle eions but would repudiate others. Why should not the ftrltlsh conten tion accept this admission that we are not sovereign just as surely on the restrictions Mr. Underwood ac cept|F as upon the one he would re pudfcte for the purpose of granting a subjdy? “The Clean Up atul Paint Up Campaign Sweeping Country What Augusta la Doing For Ton Dayg and What Other Oitlca Have Done and Accomplished, Read Tho Herald For Daily News and Announcements of Progress of Campaign. ‘‘Btr*iphtferw*rdn**a" Plants* the Editor of "Tho Amorieen City.” Ytujr kind favor of the 16th inat. t» at hood, Inviting rn# to become a mem ber of the advisory committee of the "t'lcnn-I’p and I’alnt-tfp" Campaign bureau.

(From lit* Providence Journal. If he takes a conspicuous part aialnst the administration on this Im portant lasuo the guapit mn will nat urally ha aroused —though perhaps without sufficient reason -that he Is ready for a break with Mr. Wilson on the question of the IltmomUc prer-l --t uentlal nomination In 1918. Mr. Clark has never forgotten what happened at i Baltimore In I*l2, and It is possil le that, reviewing hi* primary trlumpn* In liiat year, he thinks a wider appli cation of Ihe prirpary system im , years home would give him a fighting - hance to win the prise. Hut times lists changed and the President's I prestige has been vastly augmented. The Question of Motive. (From N«-w York Kvonlng Post.) Wo will n»t question his motives. It Is freely put about that he Is prepar i lug to contest with Wilson the lead t crshlp of the democratic party In I*l6. But this would Imply a density on his part greater than we have ever credit ed hint with—and we have always been generous In conceding him possesion of that quality. His political ambi tions may have been craftily played upon by enemies of Wilson, hut they would he the firs* to think It a huge Joke for anybody seriously to suggest that t'hamp Clark cun ever be elected President. Biding His Time, (From the Poston Transcript) The formal statement of Hpeakrr Clark of Intention to antagonize the administration's toll repeal bill gives the presentation of a "gag rule'' as the occasion for Ills revolt, but the cause, as distinct from the occasion. Is plain. Mr Wilson was nominated at tho Bal timore convention, Mr. Clark was de feated The cup of success was nutch ctl from the rpeuker's lips just as he begun to inhule its exquisite bouquet. Ever since his Baltimore defeat the speaker ha.< bee nbidlng his time, . . That Speaker Clark has been led by his personal bitterness and desire for revenge Into a course perilous to his own future Is a, plausible conclusion. The house Is likely to support tie- President snd we shal Isee the speak er humbled hy It. A speaker who heads a revolt against his party ad ministration and falls has emphasized the power of the former. He does not become "available,” but quite the con trary. Men worship not alone the rising sun. hut the sun thnt breaks through clouds and dissipates the mists. Former Opponent of Subsidies. I Front the New York Tribune.) No man In Congress has a clearer record of hostility to direct subsidies to manufacturing or shipping Interests than Mr. t'lsrk has. He was caught uoping two years ago. Just as Mr. \\ llson was, bv the misleading argu ments made by the free tolls conting • ni His eyes are open now. If he speak* ond votes for subsidies he will bt.-ak with his convictions of many ycurs (the year 1912 excepted), and will show a petty nnxlety to withhold fr ,m a Democratic President thnt vote of confidence without which the President, according to his own testi mony. will be henceforth at a loss in rordiiftlng this country' s relations with foreign countries.

Jim. but I've never been in debt yet. and I'm not going to begin now. It 1 can't afford to pay for what I want i I'll do w ithout till I can." Daysey Mayme And Her tolks There are time* when Da)*oy May tun Appleton, after languidly eat ing the breakfast h*r mother ha* pre pared, ha* retired to h'*r room that •he may not he annoyed by the dust f ng before her mother * broom, uor have her nervo* racked hy the chatter of i an* and UUhes, and there haa given way to moods of deep depres sion. It I* then when ah* feel* her uge lessiiess to the world; It I* then that she dreams that life must tnesn mote than fudge*, rouges and writing the hungry longings of one’s soul In a diary; It Is then thnt she become* to absorbed In listening to a cry from the wlldernes* for help that »he grow* deaf to tho cry for help from the kitchen, thu* proving that her longing to do good I* essentially modern. It was billowing one of these moods of deep depression thnt she enlisted In settlement work. With no working knowledge of the difference between a pie and a puree, and a di*|>o*ltlou to heal the »lrk and the suffering by the suggestion that they rest in the Arms of Encircling Good, rather than en gage In the plebeian task of making a mustard plaster, she felt well equipped for the work before her. No one, she knew, had memorized more helpful i oems than herself. She had railed on a woman in one of these neighborhoods where wifs heatlng Is the king of Indoor sports, and. with many apt quotations of poetrv, had essayed to cheer the weeping wife, whose countenance, be fitting one who engaged in such royal sport, was rapidly becoming purple There were a half dozen children In the room, ranging (rom six weeks to ten tears, and the sight was one that made Daysey Mamye contented with *1 insterhood. The husband, tho woman explained a* the wept, beat her every day, and never earned a cent. The story aroused Daysey Mayme’l Indignation. "I wouldn’t let a man beat me that way," ahe aald In a burst of wrath. The woman paused in her weeping Pushing the straggling locks from eyes that were fast swelling shut, she asked; “Have you a husband? —to which Daysey Maytne responded that she hadn’t. “Gee” snid the woman, looking com mlseratlngly at her visitor as well as she could through the half eye-that was still visible "it must be tough to be an old maid!"

Things went along this way for a couple of days and Bill did not go to see Einllv —until, coming home one evening after work, the landladv told him a young lady and her mother had been there to se? him that afternoon and were coming back that evening. When Bill heard this he was for go ing right ou; and not coming back until late. As he started out the front door he met Emily and her mother coming in. H. C. | (To Be Continued).
