after her spring cleaning with a
pleasure It is difficult to picture. The

six months or more ha* been some
thing to make our prtdcful and patri

scriptions have afflicted the eyes of
the sensitive and beauty-loving.
The best thing that could happen to
Augusta is to make a fresh atart sot

In the glory of cleanliness and good
order. Never again will our cltlxens
consent to see their town with the un
tidy and uncared for appearance It
now presents.
•’Get clean and keep clean" is tbs
slogan. After this clean-up and paint

there is no drifting back Into bad huk

Sovereignty, Limited
(New York World.)
A fact to he remembered now and
alwaya I* we surrendered noth
ing when we respect out treaty obli
gation* at i’anama. We give up
nothing when we compel tiie *hl|*
subsidy people to take their hands
mil ,i l the treasury. W’e zacrifice
nothing when we proceed in good
faith to operate the canal in Jtme of
peace upon equal terms for all.
But the great work at the isthmus
haa been dedicated to war and not
to peace. It frowns with fortifica
tion* It bristlea with rifles. In
time of war Involving ourselves, it
Is provided by law that It shall lie
ruled absolutely by an officer of the
army appointed by the president.
That officer, of course, will lie sup
liorted by a great garrison on land
4nd by fleets of battleships at sea.
It 10l lows plainly enough that our
Investment of hundreds of millions
at Panama will not be worth a cent
In time of hoHtilitW except as with
men and gun* and ships we may be
itldc to hold It. By making It a war
canal instead of a commercial canal
we have elected in time of trouble
to defentl the republic at that distant
point, Thl* la the challenge that we
have flung in the face of the world.
In only one way can the folly of
this policy be lessened, and that is
by scrupulous respect for treaties and
hy the jusllce with which we shall
administer our trust. If we are to
favor one of our own monopolies
with ship subsidies, the money must
not he openly paid at the Isthmus tn
the form of free tolls. If we are to
look to the nations of the earth for
Ircitv observance, we must not prove
talse to the obligations which trea
ties impose ui»on ourselves.
In spite or the oratory of our over
heated subsidy patriots, no other is
sue Is Involved at Panama Our In
dependence It not threatened by
keeping faith. Our sovereignty Is
not limited by keeping faith. Our
power and dignity are not lessened
by keeping faith. On the contrary,
all are made more secure, and the
chance that any of them will be men
aced is made the more remote.
Much has been said about our
ownership of the canal which Is
true, hut possession also means re
sponsibility. It Is not to he misused
in behalf of a greedy group of sub
sidy beggars. It is not to he mis
used to promote the enterprises of
Jingoes. It is not to be misused for
the profit of anybody at home or
abroad and to the disadvantage of
any country with which we are at
peace. •
Nations, like men, hold properly
subject to certain limitations. They
are not to do with It as they please.
They cannot affront the opinion of
mankind, as Spain learned to Its cost
in Cuba not long ago.
