AS TO THE CANAL.
The Question as to Terminus Set.
tied Definitely.
A Project OF General BENEFIT OF Equal
Growl From mp the River.

Tie Clinton Herald OF a recent date
cont aimed the following:
Hennepin will never be dug till there
is agreement on terminus; but Davenport
and Rock Island. which have done all
that has been done for the canal. will
never consent to a northern terminus,
and the northern section will never con
sent to the Rock Island terminus. Aud
so Bennepin is likely to fall between two
stools, as ii were.
To this, the Davenport Democrat. Ga :
sette sensibly replies:
The day for talking about terminal
points has gone by. A government com.
mission has recommended and the secre>
tary Of war has practically approved the
mouth of Rock river as the western ter
minus. This was done Independently of
any local influence and after a full con-
sideration of the advantages offered by
the Meredosia and Watertown routes
In all the years this question has been
before the country, Davenport has earn
estly advocated the building of the canal
by any route. 1t would be of great prac,
tical benefit to the country, whether 10.
Gated fifty miles above this city or below
it. The geography of.sbe country favors
the route chosen. So does the COM
mercial importance of this (tri-city)
business center, the largest between
st. Louis nd st. Paul. Another srgu
ment is the national armory and ar
senal designed for great manufacturing
plant. The interests of the people could
not intelligently be overlooked in an i'm
provement for the benefit of the people.
90 the criticism of the Clinton Herald
has nothing to rest upon. And even if
there were foundation the talk INDUCED
in By the Herald would be simple. Hen.
nepin is not likely to fall. 1t is further
advanced today than it has been since the
first bill was introduced in congress some
twenty years ago. Not only have several
surveys been made by the government
but the location has been fixed. The OBJ
ject now to be accomplished is to secure
an appropriation for the beginning OF
actu al work. If the Clinton papers have
in the past been supporting the project
on account of its national importance
and not on the ground of some purely
local benefit to be realized they will
now dip their oars deeper and pull hard
er for it than they have ever done.
The great northwest ought to send
such demand to Washington that con-
gress dare not ignore 1t. Boards of trade,
bus ness mems associations, farmers al,
liances, city councils and state legisla.
lures ought to at once adopt resolutions
in support of the measure and forward
them to senators and congressman. The
farmers and shippers of heavy goods are
to be directly benefited through reduced
rates aud increased prices for their corn
and other grains. When these two
classes are benefited the people generally
are helped. 1t is an exceedingly narrow
and selfish position for any newspaper In
the northwest now to talk about terminal
points. The time for discussion OF that
nature has gone by.

The Germans celebrated spectacular
minstrels appear at Harper's theatre to-
night. The Wheeling, W. Va. Register
says:
The entertainments at the opera house
yesterday by the German MINISTRIES were
so different from the usual minstrel per-
Torrance, and so enjoyable withal, that
much more space than can be afforded in
this issue would be used to advantage in
reporting the excellence and attractive>
ness of the performances. The first part
contained the greatest departure. In
place of the old-time circle there was q
white face" orchestra in its regular
place, while on the stage q squad of West
Pointers in their white trousers and nstty
dress coats executed a series of intricate
mar oeuvres with wonderful precision,
while singing a capital marching song.
Then followed an exceedingly clever rifle
drill which concludes with brilliant and
effective tableaux. The other features
were just as new and pleasing.
A new farce comedy, "a Base Hit,
will be presented at Harper's theatre
Saturday night under the auspices OF
Richards Farce Comedy Co. Although
this is the first season in the west.
the comedy has had success sur
passing that of any of the Hoyt pieces.
The company is of unusual strength. The
well known name Of Willard Simms APP
pears at the head of it. and the part of
the umpire which he plays, enables him
to assume many DISCUSSES and introduce
many songs and dances. Kent Thomas,
an actor of recognized ability in legiti-
mate pieces. makes his first appearance
in farce comedy. Hubert Conway, who
has taken leading parts with number of
successful farce>comedy companies, also
appears with this company. Among the
ladies, Caroline Gage. Phoebe Clarke
and Clara Knott are some of the most &c.
centric of the Hoyt actresses. The pretty
girls. all of when sing and dance, include
the names of Stella Roberts. Maud Com
stock and Sadie Arlington. Mr.. c. E.
Sims. the author and composer of all the
songs and catchy music of the piece, leads

THE WAGNER WATER RATES

The Report OF AID. Edwards 10 the
City Council...AnI Interesting state
ment or the City's side.
At Monday nights meeting of the city
council Aid. Edwards, chairman of the
water works committee, read and SUBJ
mitted the following report as in reference
to the injunction of Mr.. Geo. Wagner,
proprietor Of the Atlantic brewery, upon
the city:
Rock ISLAND. III. Jan. 6. 1890.
To His Honor, the Mayor, and City Council:
GENTLEMEN: Since our last meeting
of the city council one of our worthy Cit
liens. Mr.. Geo. Wagner, has enjoined the
city of Rock Island not to cut of his
water communications until he shall have
a hearing from the court. refusing to pay
his water rents prescribed by ordinance
per meter rates.
The mayor and superintendent of
waterworks showed friendly disposition
toward Mr.. Wagner by notifying him.
three different times, to make good
his water rents, while the city ordinances
plainly specify "thSt those in arrears for
water rents. their supply shall be cut off
within fifteen days after the first of May
or November.
kind disposition of our worthy mayor,
towards the large consumers in general)
in furnishing each and every one with
water at about cost,-showing no dis
position whatever to cut of their supply
but an injustice to the general tax
payer to have all water consumers pay
their just water rents.
If the city has to pump water at loss,
the tax payers, through their representa-
tives in the council, reserve the right TO
cut of the supply.
Now. gentlemen, allow me to introduce
some figures for the benefit of this coun-
Gil in regard to our waterworks and its
workings:

This is what constitutes the water

which would be equal to. ........S IA $50 90

AT our present rate of pumping, and in
justice to our water consumers, and for
better fire protection, we should have a
new set OF pumps as soon as possible;
but the safest and best remedy will be to
follow the Davenport system by adopting
reservoir, which will cost the city not
less than $125 900 in extension of mains,
machinery aud reservoir.
But if the city fails to collect fair
water rent, where is this money to come
fromf Are the tax payers again to make
good these deficiencies?
