The River and HarbOr Bill.

The Aberdeen Examiner takes occasion
to eulogize Logan as friend of the Missis-
sippi River improvement aud to animad-
vert against Arthur for lIis veto OF the
river and harbor bill. If there is single
meritorious official act of Arthur's admin
istration it is this very veto, and in 1t ne
distinctly approved many appropriations,
especially the Mississippi River allotment,
that had been loaded down with special
appropriation for every Congressional Dis
trict in the country in order that the mem
bers could make themselves solid with
their constituencies Greenyille Review.
In answer to the foregoing extract the
Examiner in an article teaming with
sound practical views, shows that the best
thing that ever happened for the cause
of the Mississippi River Improvement
happened when the friends of the river
and harbor bill agreed to make the ap-
preparation for the Mississippi part of
that bill.
"There has never been measure intro
duced in Congress, or passed by either
House, looking to the improvement OF
the Mississippi and particularly the well
fare of the lawer valley, that we can re-
call, that was not presented and cham
pioned by friends of the river and har-
Dor bill, and while the statement may
excite doubt in the mind of our con-
temporary, We have no hesitation in say
ing that ii the scheme of improving the
Mississippi River involved the surrender
of the principle and plan of the river
and harbor bill, it could not count upon
even the solid vote of Mississippi in the
House of Representatives, and we doubt
whether it would receive g single vote
from Texas, Florida, Alabama, Georgia,
the Carolinas or the Virginias; while
scores of its present aidels in other
States would reinforce the column of its
enemies"
These are the words Of the Examiner,
and we believe that they speak the truth.
The importance of the Mississippi
River, considering the vast and varied
interests dependent upon its control
within fixed limits. is not to be under
but if the persons especially
in the Improvement Of the
Mississippi become 80 carried away with
the Importance of that stream Is to lose
sight 81 the almost innumerable streams
which are Of like special interest 20
Others, the result to the aTississippi River
may be disastrous.
Disguise It IS yon will, crisicise il,

gFesznen expect them to get something

cal politicians are not II favor. Il re-
suits that when the friends 81 the Missis-
sippi make war on the smaller rivers.

The State College for Girls "A sug.
gestion.

The CLARION feels like calling a halt
on the discussion through its columns
Of proposed sites for the Industrial Col
lege for Girls; and while we do not say
that other communications on the sub.
ject viii not be admitted, we hope that
such as may yet be offered will be few
in number and very brief.
The location of the College is prize
to secure which any town in the State
can well afford to offer substantial in
ducements; but we submit that mere
resolutions, or expressions of public
meetings; OF the logic Of ready writers,
or the praise Of one place at the expense
of another, are not the best modes Of
securing a majority of the ten votes Of
the gentlemen who compose the board
of trustees. These gentlemen are charged,
by section 10 of the charter, in the Sc
lection of site, to look to the con
venience Of the people Of every section
of the State; also the facilities for going
to and from said institution, the adYan-
tages and disadvantages Of the different
sites proposed, and shall locate the same
st the place where p,est advantages
are offered provided the location
shall be at place known to be healthy,
and free from annual epidemics." The
trustees, we psssume. will Be called to-
gether At an early day, whsa they viii
give notice for sixty days that they win
receive proposals and examine sites be-
fore locating the College We suggest,
therefore, that in the main the commu-
mites that are In earnest il the matter
81 securing the College shall 81 10 work
and put their propositions IN business
