GOOD EXAMPLE

The Hon. James w. Singleton, of the
Eleventh Congressional district in Illi-
nois, Democratic member of the present
House of Representatives, being euchred
out of nomination in the Democratic
convention for re- collection, consents to
come out as an Independent candidate on
condition that the Republicans refrain
from making nomination. Prominent
Republicans and Democrats urge him to
take this course, and in Adams and Pike
counties, especially, there is strong sen.
timent among Republicans against max
ing any nomination, and in favor of Civ
ing the field to Gen. Singleton.
The Republicans of the district are sem
sible. They are not SO blindly rooted to
party as not to be able to see an inch be-
fore their noses, and take advantage of
favorable emergency to break dewn an
unholy combination aud thus benefit
themselves and give future strength to
their organization. The Republicans
have no hope of electing candidate in
that district, and Gen. Singleton is an
able and high-minde& gentleman and has
made q useful member of Congress.

oRDER ON THE RIO GRANDE

A formal agreement has at last been
entered into between Mexico and this
country, permitting the reciprocal eros
sing of the Rio Grande by the armies of
the two governments, when in pursuit of
the hostile Indians that have made life
and property unsafe on either bank of the
river since Texas was admitted into the
Union. This arrangement between the
two republics will do more to re-
store order on the border and secure
the enforcement of the law, than stand
ing army of Is 900 men on both sides of
the river.
The great trouble experienced in en-
forcing the law on the Mexican and
American sides of the RIO Grande has
resulted from the facilities extended out
laws and thieves on both sides of the
river for the disposal of their plumber,
and the difficulty experienced in securing
the arrest and conviction of persons
charged with crime before the
officials on the frontier, who owe
their election and prosperity in
this worlds goods to the criminal
classes who rendezvous within the limits
of the iona Libra, and plumber the inhsb-
itants of both sides of the river with the
tacit if not expressed consent of the off,
GERS of the law. Smuggling land cattle
stealing has been carried on from both
sides of the Rio Grande for years with
but Indifferent success attending the eff
forts of the State and Federal officials to
confine the operations of the thieves to
the unsettled portions Of the frontier and
thieves can be pursued across the river,
the prospect Of the enforcement of the
law against these depredaters is more
promising than at any time in the history
of the government.

Receipts in Ch!cago-Work of the Commits
sion as to Quarantine Rules.
CHICAGO, Aug. 16.-J. 81. Sanders, of this
city, member of the United States cattle COM
mission, says for the month ending July 18th,
Chicago received nearly $4,000 head of Texan
cattle, a greater number than ever before in
the same length OF time. They were mostly
slaughtered and those not killed here were
kept apart from the domestic cattle aud are
not likely to infect them with the Texas ca,-
tie fever this year, although eastern breeders
who have not learned to
deal with the disease are troubled
with it Mr.. Sanders thinks the cattle fever
in the East is from cattle shipped north from
the Southern states east of Texas, where cattle
are affected with the Texas fever. Mr.. Sanders
and other members of the commission will
start for Quebec to-day to examine the quar-
antiEe system there, with view of adopting
q similar one at Portland, Boston, New York,
Philadelphia and Baltimore within two
months This will allow direct importations
of fine cattle from Europe.

where water lines come into competition
with rail lines, the rates on the former
exert q regulating influence on the
latter" He further states "that this in
fluence is of inestimable value, especially
to the western and northwestern states"
That wheat will go by water transport
where it exists is shown by the fact that
in ten years, ending 1872, 80 per cent. of
the wheat was shipped from Chicago to
Buffalo by lake and 10 per cent. by rail.
The same ratio is true of corn. This
illustrates the modern tendency of
our own people to use water ways
for bulky articles. Their use will
be increased in ratio to the increase of
production. But the expediency of this
water line must be considered in refer
ence to the colossal products which are
soon to flow from the cereal areas noted.
Those masses of freight cannot be rele-
gated to railways alone. Railway COM
petition will not effect the object desired.
The waterway must be summoned, both
as an aid and regulator. We are search
ing earnestly for practical methods of re-
duclng the cost of transportation on agri-
cultural products. We are contemplating
the means of carrying to the markets of
the world the production of region so
vast that the men Of the east are not yet
capable of comprehending the extent and
capacity of the empire The sober judy
ments Of men are made incredulous by
the immensely of the figures.
CONCLUSION.
| am fully aware that any project to
build any canal through our great lake
region will receive the combined opposi-
ton of all east and west railways.
N atural enmity exists between the rail-
way and canal systems Whether the in
telligent discussion of the problem, will SO
influence public opinion, as to overcome
this corporate opposition, is a question
for the future. Be this as it may, some
where in that lacustrine region, lies the
undeveloped form of a great national
canal If it's wanted as a need of the
future, 1t will come as a triumph of the
people against a powerful array of cor
porate power, which is ever active and
vigilant.
When recall the history of the begin
ming OF the commerce of the great lakes,
with its little fleet of canoes, loaded with
pelts, in the twilight of hundred years
ago, stealing in mists and doubt along
the frOwning cliffs of Superior, and COM
pare that scene with the picture of to-
day in the superb iron steamers which
proudly plough the blue waves of the
''unsalted sea-" witness a change, the
magical power of civilized energies,
working out the proud destiny of great
people! But why should we pause at the
shores of the great lake? The lordly fur
companies, who, a century ago, reigned
IN these aqueous solitudes, pushed their
canoes and their commerce even to Great
Slave lake. With all our modern facili-
ties and pride of development, are we
less able to cast anchor in those distant
waters
