or cayil that the great body of the people desire
the completion of the canals at the earliest pract
able moment. They see that the enlargement has
now been going on in a snaillike pace some fifteen
years, and they foresee that the same length of
time, and probably longer, will eapse under the
present system, before the canals become finished.
The people feel their strength and power they
know the energies which they possess, and are de-
termned to apply them. They see, too, that while
a few miles year, only, of the canals being
completed, private enterprise is on the wing,
ming railroads from tide water TO the inland seas
from Champlain TO the Atlantic-rival roads along
the Mohawk-all aiming to compete with the ca
nails They say that when the present system for
finishing adopted, those rival routes, most of
them, at least, had no existence that then the
productive West was not crOwding its immense sur
plus products to the Eastern cities for market;
and that it was not even conject lred by the most
sangune, that private enterprise would so soon
compel the State to place herself the defensive,
in order to retain the carrying trade, for which
she had expended many millions in the construction
Of her inland water communications. They now
say revolution has taken plaee-thst ia .ilites for
transportation required imme diatey-th in the
prosperous condition Of the State and nation, it
win be suicidal to remain any longer inactive.
There are other reasons why the canals should
be soon completed. As matters now are, and
they have been during the last dozen years, they
act as mighty political lever, hosting party
and at the same time lowering the O: her. They are
engines Of irresistible power, producing more
ruItion, villany and the waste OF more money,
.han all the other in the hands of politicians.
All the managers of the canals politicians-the
Governor, Commissioners, Canal Board, engineers,
supsrintendents contractors, sub-ccntractors,
capsaas, and day laborers. Since the adoption of
the IEesent constitution, the patronage and power
Of the canal interest has been immense, beyond
comprehension. We have only to refer to the
duet of officers in charge of the construction of the
public works in order to ascertain how the money is
squandered for private and poll teal interests
Therefore, say imperous necessity exists to
complete the entire work immediately. One-tsird
Of the official force under pay then be dis
pensed with, together with the hundreds of con-
tractors and the thousands Of hangers-on ready to
perform any menial service, off the canals,
which the party in power constantly require. All
good citizens regarding the true interests of the
people Of this state, should pray continually for
the completion Of the state works, in order that
the gross corruptons daily practsed by unprin-
ciped politicians may be speedily arrested and that
important bone Of contention be scattered to the
winds. Let the people ponder, that righteousness
may prevail.
