Saving the Boat.

Two well known Detroit lawyers, up
north, on summer trip, crossed Grand
Traverse bay the other day to Elk Rapids
in a small steamboat hardly larger than
a steam launch. There was big crowd
aboard, and a heavy sea rolling. The
lawyers sat together On the baggage on
the bow of the boat. and after the steam
er got out where she felt the full force of
the waves, one of them remarked to the
other: aLt rs11 4aE5 70 .iie1l.I bar

"Just about four" replied A., as he

a new hold and carefully surveyed the
distant shore, "dO you have any idea that
there are eny professors of religion

he ducked his head to avoid The next sea.

Reaching the cabin they discovered
what sort of music it was, and A. looked
out of the windows at the, white-caps
and observed:

song, but for the next half-hOur LIN go

the lawyers left for home they staged it

TIE New sau,t Canal Locts.

The Chippewa County News says: "The
walls of the new locks are completed, eX-
cept the stairways and small portion
of the east end of the south wall, which
has been delayed awaiting the tablet
which is to be placed there. The filling
in back of the north wall is about COM
pleted, the material coming from the
spoil banks on the sOnth side. The result
is the nearly entire removal of those
piles of earth which have been an eye
sore for so many years. Gen. Weitzel
has arranged with Capt. Spaulding to
set some trees on the space between the
two locks, and in the spring it will be
sOdded.

.rhe Great Libel Suit.

The circuit court court of Chippewa
county sat last Monday. One of the
first cases on the calender was the libel
suit of Covell against Messrs. Chandler
and Spalding for libel. The case as was
expected by those conversant with the
facts, fell to the ground of its own
weight, as soon as it made its appear
ance i'm court. Defective papers being
the cause, the eminent attorney who
commenced the proceedings can still
have his share of the $1,000 damages,
claimed, in prospective by commencing
the proceedings over again, that is of
course by paying the costs of the present
suit. We presume however that the
principal in the case will feel his char
acter sufficiently vindicated and the at
torney that he has achieved sufficient
legal distinction by the case thus far,
SO will not proceed fryther.

st. Canal.


+ Major HarwOOd recommends that a
revenue be collected from crafts passing
thrOught the st. Clair Flats canal. In
his annual report he says:
s This is work built by the United
States government, and it seems wrong
that such thOroughfare, used only by a
portion of its citizens, should be support
ed by the entire nation. The canal
should have fixed revenue, and this
revenue should from those who alone
are benefited by its use. 3yI agT IEfoU
"a In 1873 27 900 trips of vessels of all kinds
were made through the, canal during
the season of navigation. Since that
time commerce has declined about one
third, and we assume that during the
present year about $4,000 trips will be
made. through the canal. OF these about
1900 should be over 500 tons burden
and 4,5OO under that tonnage. ton
mage tax of 80 cents on each clearance
for vessel of over 500 tons burden, and
20 cents for those under, would, on the
basis of the above figures, yield a
revenue of about 5000 per annum, or
enough to take care of the canal. If
the tax at the close of the year were
found to be unnecessarily great it could
be reduced pro rata; if too small it
could be increased to meet the necessi-
ties of the canal. Daily passenger
steamers could be charged certain
amount, about 80 cents on each trip.
Major HarwOOd urges early legislation,
as suggested in the foregoing. Aiti
"a The same applies equally to the Sault
canal. and yet it is well known that the
subject of turning the canal over to the
general government, and making it free
to all, has been discussed and has many
advocates HHm at a- r.iI III
We think the marine interests of the
country are taxed too much now, and
instead Of trying to find new sources for
further taxation we think it would be
better to reduce or abolish many that
are now in force, and hence we do not
think it would be wise to make the
change suggested by Major HarwoOd in
regard to the Flats canal. The same
reason for taxing the vessel interests
would be applicable to almost every pub
lie improvement undertaken by the
government upon the great lakes, and
yet we do not think any person would
think for moment of applying it and
asking tax from vessels seeking refuge
in the different harbOrs of refuge which
are being constructed by the general
government. l|siF l3.lGl ei ti
