or The Weekly Constituticn—once a week, with each of the above (except that
The Weekly Constitution is substituted for the Tri-Weekly)—all for one year for only $1.40
The Tri-Weekly Constitution presents at one sweeping view the whole area of events. The
news of the country, state, nation, and the world is given in each complete issue. Each week
the departments of Farm and Farmers, Woman’s Kingdom, Great Agricultural South, Farm
ers’ Union, Rural Free Delivery, Poultry and others of wide interest, edited by experts,
appeal directly to those addressed.
The Weekly Constitution contains all these special features and the difference between it
and The Tri-Weekly is that the one is issued once a week (on Monday only) and the
other three times a week—Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
If you want the Constitution alone, without any clubbing offers, you can get the Tri-Weekly
Constitution at $1 per year, or The Weekly at 50c per year, by addressing The Constitution,
Atlanta, Ga. One sample copy sent free on request, giving with it six of your neighbors.
- THE CONSTITUTION IS THE PAPER
FOR RURAL FREE DELIVERY ROUTES
‘A club of 40 or 50 or more will keep an R. F. D. route above the minimum average required
for daily mail service. It is the great news purveyor of the whole Southland, as good in
the gulf states as on the Atlantic seaboard. :
Clubbed with The Atlanta Constitution, we have the superb FREE OFFERS shown
from which you may make your choice of one: ‘ '
(1) Talks From Farmers to Farmers, a symposium of Southern farm knowledge that
should be in the hands of every practical farmer, young or old. The articles have all ap
peared in Tri-Weekly Constitution under same title and made one of the greatest features of
this splendid farmers’ paper. It will be mailed to you immediately upon receipt of order.
(2) The Southern Ruralist, one of the best agricultural papers in the south. It is a
semi-monthly edited by a farmer on his own farm, and is intensely practical and helpful.
(3) Paris Modes, a woman’s magazine, monthly. There are fashions in it, as the title
indicates, and they are right up to date. Do not think they are all of the sylph-like, hipless,
clothes-pin styles of the extreme devotees of the changeable {lirt called “Fashion.” They
are all pretty and becoming and up to date, so that the ladies may feel well-dressed and in
the style who follow them. But you get more than mere fashions. There are stories, poems,
storyettes, incidents of travel, seasonable articles for entertainments, home keeping, cookery,
care of the person, sanitation and hygiene, plant culture and all the rest that go to make up
a monthly feast for the busy woman who reads as she works, who relaxes from one task and
finds charm in the ever-varying features of woman’s work that is said o be never done.

REPORT OF ENGINEERS
Who Inspected Panama Canal
Submitted to Congress.
CANALTO COST $360,000,000
Lock System Deoclared to Be All Right.
Gatun Dam Endorsed---To Be
Completed in 1915,
Washington, D. C, — Any attack
n)mde hereafter on the lock type of
Panama canal, according to the opin
ion expressed by President Roosevelt,
in a message transmitted to con
gress, the report made by the engi
neers who recently visited the canal
zone with President-elect Taft, “is in
reality merely an atiack upon the
policy of building any canal at all.”
The engineers report that, as the
Gatun earth dam was the central
point of discussion, they gave it, un
der instructions from Mr, Taft, “first
consideratidon in the light of all new
evidence,” and they said that “the
type of dam now under construction
is one which meets our unanimous
approval.” ’
They say they “are satisfied that
there will be no dangerous or qbjec
tionable seepage through the mate
rials under the base of the dam; nor
are they so soft as to.be liable to be
pushed aside by the weight of the
proposed dam, so as to cause danger
ous settlement. We are also satis
fied that the materials available and
which it is proposed to use are suit.
able and can be readily placed to
form a tight, stable and permanent
dam,
Dams and locks, lock gates and all
other engineering structures involved
in the lock canal project are ‘feasi
ble and safe,” according to the engi
neers, “and they can be depended up
on to perform with certainty their re.
spective functions.” They report
that they “do not find any occasion
for changing the type of canal that
has been adopted. A change to sea
level plan at the present time would
add greatly to the cost and time of
construction, without compensating
advantages, either in capacity of the
canal or in safety of navigation,
They declare that the most practi
cal question in the construction of
the Gatun dam is the posible slipping
and sliding of the materials under
neath, and in the body of the dam.”
In regard to this question, they have
reached the conclusion that “the de
sign upon which the work is now be
ing prosecuted abundantly fulfills the
required degree of stability, and goes
far beyond the limits of what would
be regarded as sufficient and safe in
any less important structure.”
In regard to the slips, which have
occurred at seyeral timgs, the ser
they are “o(f no geriou{;2 c&exq&:ncé,
either in the practical exedution of
the work, or in the ultimate stabil
ity of the structures.”
Having considered the proper
height for the crest of the Gatun dam,
they concluded that “it could be
safely reduced twenty feet from that
originally proposed—namely, to an
elevation of 115 feet above sea level,
or thirty feet above the normal level
of the water against the dam.”
This change, they say, “will facili
tate the work of construction, and
will reduce somewhat the cost of the
proposed work.”
Their estimate of the complete cost
of the canal is $360,000,000. They
say it is incorrect to state that the
original estimate of cost was $l4O,
000,000, as they did not include ‘‘san
itation and zone government.” They
estimate the expense of sanitation
and zone government at $27,000,000,
while payments to the republic of
Panama and to the New Panama Ca
nal Company amount to $50,000,000,
which would make the difference be:
tween the present estimate and the
previous estimate, with cost of san
itation and zone government and pay
ments added, only $143,000,000, |
«“We see no reason,” they said,
“why the canal should not be com
pleted, as estimated by the chief en
gineer, by January 1, 1915—in fact,
1t seems that a somewhat earlier
completion is probable, if all goes
well.” |
The engineers who composed the
board are Frederick P. Stearns, Jas.j
D. Schuyler, Arthur P. Davis, Isham
Randolph, Henry D. Allen, John R.
Freeman and Allen Hazen.

Charge of Bribery.
Pittsburg, Pa—W. W. Ramsey,

FAVORS WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
Bishop Anderson’s Rather Unusual
Arbgument,
Chicago, Ill.—Bishop Anderson is
in favor of woman suffrage. In an
address to a men’s club he took up
the cudgels for the other sex.
“When men have an afternoon off
{hey go to a ball game or a circus,’
he said. “When a woman has an af
ternoon to spend she goes to a meet
ing of the Browning club. The wom
en come home loaded with ideas, the
men come home simply loaded.”
The bishop went on to say that
trere was as much reason why the
women should get together and re-
