WHAT 4 SUPERiNTEyDENT or PUBLIC
EOEhS SHOULD 20.

CANAIs IL 4 BUsISESs-iIKE wAY-THE SAVING

rtr THE CANALS ~ COMrEIiriUN WITH TnE
RAILROADS.
To the EdttOr OF the Trtbups.
SIR: The newspapers dwell, and with Justice
upon the necessity of obtaining an economical adj
minsiration of the canals by the speedy appoint
mcnt Of a Superintendent, but it seems TO me
that the Superintendent appointed should have
higher aim than that of merely keeping
the canals in good condition at small expense.
He should seek to divert the products of the West
from the railroads to the Ere Canal. To do this he
must seek ont AMI show the managers Of the rail-
roads ending at Chicago, Milwaukee, Detroit,
Toledo and Cleveland that they can get grain
TO Ncw-Yorl. cheaper by the water route than
they can by the trunk lines running eastward and
retain more profit for themselves. He should also
declare to the managers of these Western roads that
the policy of the State of low tolls permanent
one and that they could safely break with the trunk
lines Last Summer there were not enough
cana-boatS to carry the grain offered at
Buffalo, although boats taken off
the Delaware end Hudson Canal and the
Ciamplain Canal to aid the Erie boatmen. Owing
90 this scarcity Of boats the boatmen advanced
Their rates until they reached point where
the railroads could compete with them. The
Superintendent ought, therefore, to go TO the
bOai.hullders AMI induce them to build more
boats. With sufficient boats the rates would
be kept low, with low rates a greater volume of
Western grain would pour through the Eric Canal,
with greater volume of grain the revenue of the
State from the canals would be increased, with in
creased revenue and less expense of maintaining the
canals the canal tolls could be lowered even below
their present low sheet The State ought not to
seek revenue from Its canals. but should atrcnu-
ou2ly work TO ncrcaso the quantity OF Western pro-
ducts passing through them. thereby bcneGtting
the entire State.
Economical management of the canals he should
certainly secure, but that he can secure through
able subordina.es "a Mr.. Pilsbury secured il in
the prisons by good appointments The present Canal
Commissioners have reduced expenses to very
low point perhaps a superintendent can reduce
them 800. 900 more Bat it wonl,l be bad policy
10 pay such minute attention 10 saving siXpcnces in
maintaining the canals rs to leave no time lett to IN
dncc q greater commerce through 1t by the means
described above. =,
In c0ncluson lei me suggest that, when Mr.. Ma
gone is rejected as he is sire 10 be- n business man
should be nominated for TINS position. such man
would seem To be the very best to carry out this
wise policy. X.
