WATER FOR THE NORTHWEST.

IN IaSG weeks issue OF HE DUN, we
gave a brief sketch of the report of
Major Jones of the y. S. engineers
corps, but as we are somewhat &C
qaainted with, at least, a portion of
the country to be affected by the pro-
posed system Of reservoirs, and as we
take deep interest in that beautiful
country, we wish to give some further
light on the proposed enterprise.
Last congress made an appropri-
alton for the survey of Rainy Lake,
Red Lake and lakes Traverse and
Big Stone. The late report of Maj.
Jones is the result of this survey, and
is given very fully in tho st. Paul
Globe of the 10th. Maj. Jones pro-
poses to dam the outlet of Red Lake,
raising the water thereby two feet;
and by dredging the lake near the
outlet, deepen it two feet, thereby en-
abling the lake to hold two years rain
fall; effecting the double purpose of
saving the red river valley from over
flowing in the spring and furnishing
supply of water to keep the Red
Lake river and the Red river navi-
gable through the entire boating
season.
Another portion Of the project is to
turn the course of the Otter Tail
river into the Rabbit river, (better
known to the inhabitants of Traverse
as the Mustinka) and thus make a
reservoir of Lake Traverse, and also
supplying water to make the Bots de
Sioux navigable. Cut a canal be-
tween Traverse and Big Stone through
Browns Valley, with a lock, finally
damming Big Stone. This would
make nav:gable water from orion
villeto WinncPeg, a distance of about
1000 miles.
The estimated cost of this IS $780,
GOO; and the present wealth in sight
is the vast piEe regions adjacent to
those great lakes of Northern Mime
sofa, which cannot be reached by any
means known at present from the q.
S. This alone would make Browns
Valley and Ortonville great marts of
trade, when we consider the vast
extent of prairie east and west of
them which needs lumbe for the
building up of the country. And, by
the way, this vast prairie country
which needs this lumber SO badly
should cooperate by every means to
accomplish this end.
But lumber is not the only, or per-
haps the greatest item of trade to be
considered. A thousand miles of
water traffic between the United
States and Canada, means COM
merce, the magnitude of which we
have little conception. The latter
part Of this project was talked about
20 years ago, and a survey was made
in 1882 by Mr.. Davenport, which
showed that Big Stone was seven
feet lower than Traverse, and with
reasonable supply of water in TRAY
erse, 2 canal with a lock could have
opened those two lakes to navigation.
If this enterprise should cost $2,OOG,-
coo instead of 81 ,C00,CCOit is a small
amount when compared with the
amounts appropriated by congress for
other enterprises of far inferior i'm
portance, and we would urge upon
all newspapers in Northwestern Min
-nesota and the two Dakotas to agi-
tate this matter, and to keep it well
before their representatives in con-
g.esz,

FARMING.
BY s. B. SMITH.

during the past fifty years this
nation has made greater progress in
all arts and sciences than ever before
in the history of the nation, and the
science of agriculture has received its
full share of benefit of the knowledge
of this advancing age. Now under
these favorable conditions, in which
one man with less manual labor, can
do more work in one day then ten
men could do in the same length OF
time fifty years ago, are the farmers a
prosperous class? ~.
The city daGes, with some of their
country allies, are continually prating
the prosperity of the farmers, but this
is merely idle talk; merely AN
assertion without any foundation for
proof. say that farmers as a class
are not prospecting, and make this
statement without any fear of
successful contradiction. I admit
there are some farmers that make
the two ends of the year meet, that is
they pay all their indebtedness and
get a comfortable living, but I do not
call this prospecting, it is merely
getting living. But while there
are some of the above class, there are
many that do not raise enough with
the low price of farm products that
has prevailed for the last decade to
pay their debts, and many of them
get very poor living. For proof of
the above statement will refer the
reader to the account books of
merchant, also secured notes that
the merchants carries over from year
to year, and the foreclosure Of
mortgages. We cannot pick up a
country newspaper without seeing a
notice of mortgage foreclosure. It is
an undisputable fact that if farmers
we're prospecting they would not loose
their farms that are valued at from
$1,000 to Sic, 900, on a mortgage of
$500 or 5000. Another proof that
farmers are not prospering is in the
taking of the census in which the
farmers were not permitted to tell of
the weight of the mortgage burden
that was resting upon them; and still
another evidence ;offcial authority has
interviewed in some instances to pre-
vent the publication of reports given
the depressed condition of agriculture.
But I have said enough to prove that
the agricultural interest of the
Uuited States, and particularly in the
Northwest, is in a depressed con-
dition. Now what is the cause of this
depression, why are farmers not pros
pering2 This to my mind is not a
difficult question to answer.
There are many reasons, and the
first and foremost is, that during the
last thirty years money has been
accumulated or fallen into the
possession of, comparatively, o few
men, and such men having more
than they could make use of looked
for opportunities to loan it. Tho
wealthy men of the country have be-
come monopoly and have depressed
the value of farm products, co1se~
quently the farmer has become poor
because farming does not pay, and
the farmer has sought relief by
borrowing money; and he has been
obliged to pay high rate of interest.

A New Departure.

Not until quite recently has n plan been
hit upon for the investor to invest his
money with absolute assurance of safety
and profitable returns from his invest
ment. but such plan has at length been
devised by the Industrial & Mining Guar
anty Co. of Al Broadway, New York.
As rule the investor has invested his
money In different shares, stocks and
bonds, and the promoter, or the vendor,
or the party who has heretofore handled
the ENTERPRISE, has recommended or
placed n large number of shares, aud in
the end has quietly disposed OF the prin-
cipal amount Of the stocks or has kept
himself in n position where he could
manipulate the market, with its advances
and oeclines. for his own selfish interest
and personal gain.
Company seemed To have successfully
solved the problem I'm their offer OF the
stock OF the Seven Stars Gold Mining
Company for they require the vendor To
deposit as collateral live hundred thous-
and dollars $500, ,00O) OF his stock, and ar
range for n further guarantee of the
dividend mt the rate of Is per cent per
annum for period Of five years. They
further guarantee to take the stock
which they offer on subscription as fol-
lows Upon further assurances OF stocks,
bonds aud shares being deposited with
the Industrial & Mining Guaranty Com
pany for the full amount OF the dividends
during that periods. which IL given by
one OF the directors Mr.. Warner makes
himself personally liable for the guaran :
tee, and this, with ore to be easily drawn
upon, gives absolute security. An in
spection of the prospectus or n call or

repay any one.
