Is the cause of 80 per cent Of deafness, and this

west and all but 100000 bushels was
shipped to New York via the Erie
canal. In 1880 the canal carried only
100000 of the 100000, 900 bushels Of
grain received at Buffalo. Last year
the grain shipments from Buffalo by ca
nal were little more than "a, O00, 900 out
of 129, 0O0, 900 received at that port.
"Note the falling off. Tt is astound-
ing. Private corporations are getting
the upper hand of the state One result
is inevitable. The canals must be main
tanned properly or with constantly di-
minishing traffic the time will come
when they will have to be abandoned"
Captain Clark's reference to the ssgreat
Canadian canal system" is worthy Of
note, for the system is in fact great
one. It owes much to the efforts of
William Hamilton Merritt, who can
Justly be termed the De Witt Clinton Of
the Dominion. 1t was in 1928 that Mer-
ritt and his associates subscribed the
money to begin the work on that mag
nifcent triumph of engineering now
known as the Welland canal, which
overcomes the obstacle of Niagara falls
and connects the great lakes of Erie and
Ontario.
In connection with the coming cele-
bration many things of practical imper-
lance will be discussed, chief among
them the questions of speed and carry
ing capacity. It would appear that the
days of mule power and towpaths are
passing away, and in their place the
feasibility of steam, electricity and
traction cables is being considered. The
widening and deepening Of these arti-
fetal waterways naturally call for
bigger boats, heavier cargoes and greater
powers Of propulsion. What the de-
cision may be one can hardly anticipate,
but it is safe to predict, as before re-
marked, that the second century of
canal enterprise in the United States
will dwarf the progress of its first
hundred years. FRED Y. DAYTON.

WooNsocKETs WIN.
The Home Team Loses Sharp Contest
Umpire Mahoney Slightly Off.


Yesterdays contest between the home
team and the Woonsockets was a
splendid exhibition of the national game.
The members of both teams strained
every nerve to win and it is no discredit
to Manager Garrity's men that they lost
to such doughty opponents as the men
from Rhode Island.
Umpire Mahoney oficiated for the
first time in Portland for some weeks,
and we are obliged to say of that COM
petent official that he was a, little hard
ON decisions of bases on balls. The
Woonsockets really won the game when
Leighton and Meagher were given first
in the final inning. Those who were
sitting in the grand stand directly be-
hind the home plate were, without an
exception, of the opinion that number
of balls sailed directly over the plate
and that strikes ought to have been
called. But these two players both got
their bases on called balls and, after two
men had been retired, Harrington, who
had been doing the heaviest hitting of
the game, came to the bat and, by his
rafting single to left field, caused Jack
Leighton to make the winning run.
John Stafford, late of the Providence
team, twirled the sphere for the visitors
and pitched one of the greatest games
ever played in Portland-and this is say
ing great deal.
Our team started in quite sayagely at
his delivery in the first two innings,
making three hits and getting two runs,
but after that he steadied down, was as
cool as cucumber and we could get
only two more singles during the rest of
the game. He uses the most head work
of any pitcher in this league. His
change of pace is very effective and some
of our players walked up to the plate
and really acted as if afraid of the man
in the box. Burrill caught him to per-
lection. His support by the other mem
bers of his team was good, although no
difficult chances were offered them.
Klobedanz also pitched good game,
but the opposing bexman's experience
tells the story. Burns, Clymer and
Rogers were stone wall infield. Kirmes
accepted his only chance. Both out
fields took everything that came their
way.

of nat,rai and artificial waterways
from New Orleans to Minneapolis, from
Davenport TO Chicago, from Duluth to
Buffalo and from Buffalo via the Erie
canal and tho Hudson river to New
York city would be the most brllllanf
and productive investment our govern
ment could make, and there would fol-
low a revival of American shlpoulldlng
for the coastwise and internal as we'll as
for the foreign trade"
However, there is another side to the
shield, and if the views OF Captain w.
G. Clark are correct, the advocates OF
canals have some stall hustling" to do.
The captain is mogul among the New
York canal men and is one OF the pro-
mote1s of the coming centennial cele-
bration. "There is crisis, he remark
ed tie other day to New York Sun
reporter, s'and it has got to be met at
once. More grain has come from the
west to the seaboard since the opening
of lake navigation to the present time
than ever before in similar period.
Philadelphia is. receiving an unprece-
dented boom in grain export shipments.
1t is providing cheaper terminal facili-
ties than those of the metropolis. The
trunk line pool gives Philadelphia
through the new feeder-the Reading
road-a rate of three cents per 100
pounds lower than the New York rates.
"With this condition there can be
only one result. Millions of bushels of
grain that should come to New York
are directed to rival seaports. Since the
opening of lake navigation grain has
been forwarded from Chicago to Buff
falo, a distance of nearly 1000 miles, for
one cent and fraction per bushel. The
rate on the canal from Buffalo to New
York has fuctuated between two and
one-eighth and four cents per bushel, and
this, mind you, on waterway that has
been without improvements since war
times. An important question naturally
arises, Is New York to allow her great
canal system to deteriorate to such an
extent as to make it impossible for boat
men to successfully compete with rival
routes and the great Canadian canal
system?
"Millions upon millions have been ex-
pended in lettering and perfecting the
railway routes. Hundreds of boats are
vainly waiting for cargoes at the port OF
Buffalo. Figures tell the story of the
need of canal improvements better than
words. In 1859 over S8,000,000 bushels
of grain came to Buffalo from the far

There is not the slightest reason to
doubt that Chicago and Duluth will,
within the lifetime of people now ma
ture, receive in their harbors ocean
going vessels from every port on the
seas.
ultimately ship canal will connect
the Mississippi with the great lakes and
Chicago will have water communication
via the great river and the Nicaragua
canal with our Pacific coast and with
the west coast of South America. The
Erie canal must of course be developed
into ship canal, with a clear twenty
or twenty-one feet of water; and Chi
cago's great gain would be New York's
gain also. The Hennepin canal to con-
meet Chicago with the Mississippi is al
