Matters have not yet come' to the' Im
passe, as "the diplomats have It, but they
are bad enough. An effort was made to
secure some expressions from the members
of the board, but for the most part they
aecllned to give any public utterance to
their feelings. - Jt Is a matter for the ritual
lomrnlttee to handle, the board says.
Charles ,13. Black of the ritual committee
ays he doesn't blame the boys so much,
for ha knows they had a real grievance,
ret he ' Is of tho opinion that they have
gone tod far. He cannot condone open re
bellion : and regrets very much that he
may be callod' upon to take steps to pre
vent the revolted crew giving Its parade
sn Thursday afternoon,
Joseph Cullen Root, also a member of
the ritual committee. Is In accord with
the views expressed by Mr. Black. Ho
deplores the affair and regrets that any
unpleasantness, has arisen, but he la de
termined that . tho dignlly and authority
of the hoard of governors shall be main
tained. Tetter " Supports the Men.'
Will I- Tetter, also of the ritual com
mittee, takes . a stand radically different
from that of his fellow members. He sup
ports the working crew In Its project and
expresses . himself as feeling that they
were In,., measure Justified In what they
did. It 'was not a nice thing to do, .lie
lays, to break Into the Den and extract
the paraphernalia of Initiation, but, as
in original advocate of ladles' night at tho
Den, he ' feels that his attitude Is sup
ported by the action of the men, and he Is
Quite content to cast his lot with them. '
Dimmlck ha Joined the revolt. He felt
hurt that he had not been consulted at the
first, as It seemed something of an asper
lion on his loyalty to his fellow workers,
but as soon as he read The Bee Tuesday
evening he called his Dutch band together
and the men agreed to follow their leader
Wherever he saw fit to take them. Dimmlck
ays he will b In the parade on Thursday
afternoon If he never toots another note
at the Den. . .
-l'rnfold Also a Rebel.
Secretary Penfold Is also with the rebels.
He cannot, of course. Join with them
openly, because his duties as executive offi
cer of tha court of Ak-Sar-Ben require his
loyal service to the king, but he has about
concluded that he will resign in order that
tie may' give Ms support to the men with
whom his' sympathies are.
"These men have worked hard and faith
fully." says Colonel Penfold, "and In the
meeting; of the board, where the matter
came up, I Was heartily In favor of grant
lng their wishes. But some of the members
rere,'of the opinion that It was infringing
Dl tha rights of Che board to such an extent

la onjy .necessary to point out that former

(Government Mast Take llaaC
From every standpoint It Is desirable for
the nation to Join In Improving me greatest
system f river highways within Its bor
ders, a system rn'ond only In importance
to the highway afforded by the Great
lakes; the highways of the MlasisHlppI and
its great tributaries, , such as ttie Mivsouri
and Ohio. Tills river system traverses too
many states to render It possible to leave
merely to the states the task of fitting it
for tiie greatest use ot which it is rapahle.
It is emphatically a national task, for this
great river system Is itself one of our chief
national assis. Within the last few years
there has been an awakening In this coun
try to the ntied of both the conservation
and the development of our national re
sources under the supervision of and by the
aid of the federal government. This is es
pecially true of all that concerns our run
ning waters. On the mountains from which
tho springs start we are now endeavoring
to preserve the forests which regulwte the
water supply and prevent too startling va
riations uciwecn aroullls ana rennets.
Welow the mountains. In the high dry re
gions ot the western plains, we endeavor
to secure the proper utilization of tiie
waters for Irrigation. This Is at the sources
of the streams. Farther down, where they
become navigable, our aim must be to try
to develop a policy which shall secure the
utmost . advantage from the navigable
waters. Finally, on the lower courses of
tha Mississippi, the nation snould do its full
share in the work of levee building; and.
Incidentally to Its purpose of serving navi
gation, this will also prevent the ruin of
alluvial bottoms by Hoods. Our knowledge
Is not sufficiently far advanced to enable
me to speak definitely as to the plans which
should be adopted; but let me say one word
of warning: The danger of entering on
any such scheme lies in the adoption of Im
possible and undesirable plans plans the
adoption of which means 411 outlay of
money extravagant beyond all proportion to
the return, or which, though feasible, are
not, relatively to other plans, of an Impor
tance which warrant their adoption. It
will not be easy to secure the assent of a,
fundamentally cautious people like our own
to the adoption of such a policy as that I
hope to see adopted; anl even If we begin
to follow out such a policy it certainly will
not he persevered In If it Is found to entail
reckless extravagance or to be tainted with
Jobbery. The Interests of the nation as a
whole must be always the first considera
tion. Interests Closely Interwoven. '
This is properly a national movement,
because all lnterestate and foreign com
ment, and the Improvements and methods
of carrying it on, are subjects for national
action. .Moreover, while of course the
matter of the Improvement, of the Missis
sippi river and Its tributaries Is one which
especially concerns the great middle por
tion of our country, the region between
the Allegheniea and the Rockies, yet it
la of conuern to the rest of the country
also, for It can not too often be suld that
whatever is really beneficial to one part
of our country is ultimately of benefit to
the whole. Exactly as it is a good thing
for the Interior of our country that the
sea-ports on the Atlantic and the Pacltlo
and the gulf should be sate and com
modious, so It Is to tho interest of the
dwellers on the coast that the Interior
should possess 'ample facilities for the
transportation of its products. Our Inter
ests are all closely Interwoven, and in the
long run it will be found that we go up
or go down together.
Take, for instance, the Panama canal.
If the Mississippi is restored to Its former
place of Importance as a highway of com
merce, then the building of the Panama
canal will be felt as an Immediate advan
tage to the business of-, every city and
country district In the Mississippi valley. I
think that the-building of that canal will
be of especial advantage to the slates that
lie along the Pacific and the states that
lie along the gulf; and yet, after all, I
icei t nat. tne advantage will be shared in
an only less degree by the stales of tho
Interior and of the Atlantic coast. In
other words, It Is a thoroughly national
worjl undortakertfer and. redounding to the
advantage -bt-atl Of us--to tho advantage
of the nation as a whole. Therefore I am
glad to bo able to report to you how well
we are doing with the canal. There is
bound to be a certain amount of experi
ment, a certain amount of feeling our way.
In a task so gigantic a task greater than
any of Its kind that hus ever hitherto
been undertaken In the whole history of
mankind; but the success so far has been
astonishing, and we have not met with a
single one of the accidents or 'drawbacks
which I freely confess I expected we should
from time' to time encounter. We, In the
first place, laid the foundation for the
work by securing the most favaroble possi
ble conamons as regara me neattn, com
fort, and sUfety of the men' who were to
do it; and now the canal xone is In point
of health better off than the average dis
trict of the same else at home. Then we
went at the .problem of the actual digging
and dam building. For over a year past
we have been engaged In making tho dirt
fly in good earnest, and' the output of
the giant steam shovels ha steadily In
creased. It is now the rainy season, when
work Is most difficult an- tha Isthmus, yet
In the month of August last we excavated
over 1.200.000 cubic yards of earth and rock,
a greater amount than In any previous
Is an ordeal which all

- confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother

theory or the Instrument In if resolution, to
the eflVct that the national government
should have power In cases where the sep
arate states were incompetent to act Willi
full efficiency, and where the harmony of
the I'nlted States would be interrupted by
the exercise of such Individual legislation.
The interstate, railroad situation Is exactly
a case In point. There will, of course, be
locat matters arTcctlng railroads which can
best be dealt with by local uuthorlty. but
as national commercial agents tho blalnter
state railroad ought to be completely sub
ject to national authority. Only thus can
we secure their complete subjection to, and
control by, a single sovereign, representing
tho whole people, and capable both of protecting-
the public and of seeing that the
railroads neither Inflict nor endure in
justice. Tersonally I firmly believe that there
should be national legislation to control all
industrial corporations doing an Interstate
business. Including the control of tho out
put of their securities, but as to these,
the necessity for federal control Is less
urgent and Immediate than Is Hie cae with
the railroads. Many or the abuses con
nected with these corporations will prob
ably tend to disappear now that the gov
ernmentthe public Is gradually getting
the upper hand as regards putting a stop
to the rebates and special privileges which
some of these corporations enjoyed nt the
hands of the common curriers. But ulli-
mutely It will be found that the complete
remedy for these abuses lies In direct and
affirmative action by the national govern
ment. That there Is constitutional power
for the natlonul regulation of these cor
porations 1 have myself no question. Two
or three generations ago there was Just
as much hostility to national control of
banks as there is now to national control
of railroads or of industrial corporations
doing an Interstate business. That hostility
now seems to us ludicrous In Ita lack of
warrant; In like munner, gentlemen, our
descendants will resard with wonder the
present opposition to giving the national
government adequate power to control thosi
great corporations, which it alone can fully,
and yet wisely, safely, and Justly control.
Remember also that to regulate the for
mation of these corporations ofTeis one of
the' most direct and efficient methods of
regulating their activities.
I am not pleading for nn extension of
constitutional power. I nm pleading that
constitutional power which already exists
shall be applied to new conditions which
did not exist when the constitution went
into being. I ask that the national powers
already Conferred upon the national gov
ernment by the constitution shall be so
,,.e,i n n hrlna- national commerce and
industry effectively under the authority of
the federal government and thereby avert
Industrial chaos. Mv pica Is not to bring;
about a condition of centralization. It is
that the government shall recognize a con
dition of centralization In a field where it
already exists. When the national bank
ing law was passed, it representedin reality
not centralization, -but recognition of the
fact that the country had so far advanced
that the currency was already a matter of
national concern and must bo dealt with
by the central authority at Washington,
fto It Is with Interstate Industrialism and
esneclally with the matter of Interstate
railroad operation today. Centralization
has already taken sluce In .the world of
month. If. we are able) to keep up sub
stantially the rate of progress that now
obtains we shall finish th actual digging
within five or six years; though when we
tome to the great Gatun dam and lo ks.
while there is no question as to the work
being feasible, there are several elements
entering Into the time problem which make
It unwise st present to hazard a prophecy
In reference thereto.

Now, gentlemen, this leads nie up to an
other matter for national consideration,
snd that Is our nn. The navy Is not
primarily of ' Importance only to tne coaet
regions. H Is every bit as much the con
cern of the farmer who dwells a thousand
miles from sea water as of the fisherman
who makes his living on the ocean, (or It
Is ths concern of every g:od American
who knows what the meaning of the word
patriotism Is. This country Is definitely
committed to certain fundamental policies
to the Monroe doctrine, for Instance, to
the duty not only of bull. linn. but. when II
is built, of policing and defending the fan
amn, canal. W'e have definitely taken our
place among the ereat world powers, and it
would be a sign of Ignoble weakness, hav
ing taken such n place, to shirk Its reion
s'bllitics. Therefore, unless we aro willing
to abandon this place, to abandon our in
sistence upon the Monroe doctrine, to give
up the Panama canal, and to be content to
acknowledge ourselves a weak and timid
nation, we must steatlily build up and
mulntaln
Is already so efficient as to be a matter of
Just pride to every American. So long as
our navy is no larger than at present, it
must be considered as an elementary prin
ciple that the bulk of our battle fled must
alwavs be kept together. When the Pan
ama 'canal Is built It can be transferred
without difficulty from ore rart of our
coast to the other; but even before that
canal Is built It ought to be transferred to
,wi frn from time to time. In a couple of
months our Meet or great armorea snips
start for the Pacific. California, uregon

"The meaning of the constitution is 10 oe

governmept purely out of a law librury
can never be really good, government.
Now that the questions of government
are becoming so largely economic, the ma
jority of our so-called constitutional cases
really turn not upon the interpretation of
the instrument Itself, but upon the con
struction, the rlRlit apprehension of the
living conditions to which it is to be ap
plied. The constltdtion is 'now and must
remain what it always has been; but it
can onlv be Interpreted as the interests of
the whole people demand, if Interpreted as
a living organism, designed' to meet the
conditions of lift and not of death: in other
words, If interpreted as Marshall inter
preted It. as Wilson declared It should be
Interpreted. The Mnrshstl theory, the
theory of life and not of death, allows to
tha nntlon, that Is to the people as a
whole, when once It finds a subject within
the notional cognizance, the widest and
freest choice of methods for national con
trol, and sustains every exercise nf na
tional power which- has any reasonable re
lation to national objects. The negation
of this theory means, for Instance, that
the natlon-that we, the 90.000.000 of people
of this country will be left helpless to
control the huge corporations which now
domineer In our industrial life, and thnt
they wrll have the authority of the courts
to wotk their desires unchecked; and such
a decision would In the end be as disastrous
for them as for us If the theory of the
Marshall school prevails, then an Immense
field of national power, now unused, will
be developed, which will be adequate for
dealing with many, If not all, of tha eco
nomic problems which vex us; and we
shall be saved from the ominous threat of
a constant oscillation btttween economic
tyranny and economic chaos. Our Indus
trial, and therefore our social, future as a
nation, depends upon settling: aright this
urgent question.
The States and the Watlon.
The constitution Is unchanged and un
changeable save by amendment in dus
form, iiut the conditions to which it Is to
be applied have undergone a change which
is almost u transformation, with the result
that many subjects formerly under the
control of the states have come under tne
control of the imllon. As one of the Jus
tices of tho supreme court has recently
solid: "The growth of national powers,
under our constitution, which marks merely
the great outlines and designates only the
great objects of national concern, Is to bt.
compared to the growth of a country not
by the geographical enlargement of its
boundaries, but by the Increase of its popu
lation." A hundred years ago there was,
except the commerce which crawled along
cur seucoast or up and down our Interior
waterways, practically no Interstate com
merce. Now, by thj railroad, tho mails,
the telegraph, and the telephone an Im
mense part of our commerce Is Interstate,
l.y the transformation It has escaped from
tiie power of the state and come under tho
er of the nation. 1 hererore there has
a great practical change In the exer
cise of the national power, under the acts
of congress, over Interstate ennimerie;
while on the other hand there has been no
noticeable change In the exercise of the
national power "to regulate commerce
with loreUn nations and with the Indian
tribes." The chaniio as regards Interstate
commerce has -been, , not In the constitu
tion, but in the business of the people to
which it is to be applied. Our economlo
and social future drpinds in a very largo
part upon how the Interstate commerce
power of the nation Is internreted.
I believe that the nation has the whole
governmental power over Interstate com
merce snd the widest discretion in denting
with that subject; of course, uraler the rt.
press limits prescribed In the constitution
for the exercise of nil powers, such for In
stance as the condition that "due process of
law" shall not be denied. The nation has
no direct power, over purely intrastate
commerce, tven where It Is conducted by
the aamn agencies which conduct Inter
state commerce. The courts must deter
mine what is national snd what is state
commerce. The sam.- reasoning which
sustained the power of eoncress to Incor
porate the I'nlted States bank tends to
sustain the power to Incorporate an inter
state railroad, or anv other corporation
conducting an interstate business.
Dimcalt Questions Arise.
There are difficulties arising from our
dual form of government. If they iirove to
be Insuperahla resort must be had to the
power of amendment. us first try to
meet them by un exercise of all tho powers
of the national government which 4n the
Marnhall spii.ii-of broad interpretation can
be found in the constitution as it is. They
aro of vast extent. The chler economic
question of tho day in this country Is to
provide a Sovereign for the great corpora
tions engaged In tnlumtate, business; that
is. fur the railroads and the interstate In
dustrial corporations. At the moment our
prime concern Is with the railroads. When
rullrouds were first built they were purely
local in character. Their boundaries weie
not coextensive even with the boundaries
of one state. They usually covered but two
or three counties. All this has now
changed. At present five great systems
embody nearly our-tiflhs of the total mile,
age of the country. All the most Important
ra.lroads are no longer state rouds. but
instruments of Interstate commerce. Prob
ably tvo per cent of their business is inter
stc.le business. It Is Die nation alone which
can with wisdom. Justice snd enV tiv.ness
exercifce over these interstate railroads the
thorough and complete supervision which
should bo exercised, fine of tha chief, and
probably the chief, of the domestic caus-s
.hi adoption f the constitution was
tne need to confer upon the nation exclusive
control over Interslaie commerce. Iiut this
