TO BE OR NOT TO BE?

The question of applying to tho pres
emit Legislature for a city charter for
Cheboygan has been pretty generally
discussed by our citizens, and the meet
ing on Friday evening last tended to
show that the proposition was favorably
considered by a large majority of those
present. The TRIBUNE, after carefully
considering the subject in all lis bear
ings. is heartily in favor Of the project,
and believes the time has GENE for such
movement. We think our population,
business interests and standing as a
community demand this step Of progress.
Situated in the midst of q fertile cOun
try, withyabandant facilities for manu-
factures; with vast and rapidly grow
ing territory to draw from; with re-
Sources practically unlimited, we should
lstlRo Opportunity pass to give prestige
to the place and take advantage of the
commanding position Nature has given
usI fqrea large and flourishlng city.
The only argument we have heard ad-
vIa an |, against the movement is the sin
gle one of expense. Why it should cost
more to run city organization than it
does q village organization we fail to
sly, and dbhQt believe the argument is
tshablH." Even if this held good the diff
ference c6nid be but small, and the cor
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES would largely over
balance the additional expense.
The. TRIBUNE. recognizing the fact
that men differ always, would like to see
afrseIandfhll discussion of the subject
ut thesmeeting to be held next WedHes-
day evening. The movement is on i'm
portant one and should not be made
lightly or without being fully consider
ed.

The anti-monOpoly papers are raising
a cry over the election of VIM. M. Evarts
as U. s. Senator from New York, on the
ground that he has acted as an attorney
for railroads These fellows would pro-
hibit any man Of brains being elected
a Senator. They do not question his
ability or honesty, but frem the fact that
his ability was recognised by some Of
the railroad managers. and he employed
as their attorney, they say he is a mo-
nOpOlist. If he had been second hand
lawyer he woald probably never have
attracted the attention OF the railroad
magnates and according to these anti
moD0poly editors would have been just
the man wanted to represent the great
state of New York.

Sault Ste Marie Canal.
Special telegram to the Inter Ocean.

Special telegram to the Inter Ocean.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 23.-Duluth ship
ping renders necessary the Improvement
of the Sault Ste. Marie Canal The in
crease OF crops in Minnesota and the
Northwest has made it necessary to be-
gin at once TO improve the lOckage IA
olities Of the Sault Ste. Marie canal.
General Newton, Chief of Engineers, in
his last annual report said eight years
would see the canal clOgged, He now says
the tOnnage.is increasing SO that 4 years
will see the canal taxed beyond its capac-
ity. Col. POe's report, sent yesterday to
the Speaker Of the House, states that the
registered tonnage passing through the
canal during the season Of 1884 was q
997, 1897 tons, an increase of 995,57S tons,
or nine times the annual average in
crease for the proceeding fifteen years.
This increase In 1884 is equal to the en-
tire commerce through the canal during
the first five years it was open to navl-
gatien. Colonel Pee saysfurther: "The
increase in registered tonnage was AZ
per cent. in grain 81 per cert, in flour
80 per cent, and in iron ore 43 per cent.
These are the great staples (alth0ugh
notable increase ia the lumber traffic
was U0VelOPot), AIN lDuledbluS tHo VI
rectiOn from which future increase must
be expected. 1t will be principally from
the cereal products Of the Northwest
through the systems Of railways termi-
mating on Lake Superior. 1t is stated
in the commercial columns Of the news
papers that there are now stored at Du-
luth alone nearly 100000 bushels Of
grain, and that this will be increased to
h., = hxvf hn II
ton opens. If this be true, (and l do not
doubt it for mOmen) the canal will
be pushed toward its utmost during the
season of 1885," The River and HarbOr
Committee are still at work revamping
their bill and the Sault Ste. Marie is one
item of change that will receive full
consideration. Not few members are
dissatisfied with their wOOdshucks and
are trying to get better treatment from
the committee. 1t is not stated that any
Of the Northwestern rivers and harbors
are to be found in this aftermath Of
complaints.

The special Washington correspond
ent Of the Detroit Post is booming the
Sault canal for all he is worth, and 1t
must be said is making good showing
why early steps should be taken to en-
large the locks and secure increased IA
eilities for the fast increasing commerce
of Lake Superior. When the new lock
was projected it was thought that it
would bs adequate to accommodate the
shipping for years, but so great has been
the increase that 1t looks as IL the locks
would be heavily taxed to pass the bust
ness of 1885, especially should there be
an improvement in the business Of the
country. There are now several millions
of bushels of grain at Duluth waiting
shipment, and should there be general
starting up of the iron interests of the
country. to make demand for the ore of
the Lake Superior region, the business
Of the canal would no doubt be greatly
increased over that Of any previous year.
The great northwest is interested In pro-
viding locks cOmmsLsurate with the de-
demands Of transportation, and in this
age Of push the country cannot afford to
delay the vast commerce of that fast de-
veloping section for want of lock capaci-
ty at the Sault.
