The ship Canal.

The Cincinnati Tmes-iStar last week
published the following with reference
to the ship canal project:
The Senate yesterday passed an
amendment to the bill for an appro-
priation of SIC, 600 for a ship canal sur
yey from the city of Erie on Lake Erie
to Pittsburg. The amendment provides
that like appropriation be made for a
survey aud estimate of the cost of a
ship canal to connect Lake Erie at
Toledo with the Ohio river at Cincin-
natl, the estimate to include the cost
of changing the Miami and Erie canal
as 1t now exists TO ship canal 125 feet
wide and fourteen feet deep. The
House should recognize the need of
enlarging the survey and promptly
pass the bill. The ship canal across
Northwestern Pennsylvania, from
Pittsburg to Erie, is an important
project and should be pressed until
construction Is assured. Without dis
paraging 1t we will venture to say tina
the ship canal from Lake Erie is still
more important and is geographically
central. 1t would bea nearer route to
the lake for three-fourths Of the entire
length of the Ohio river and for all its
great navigable tributaries, Tennessee,
Cumberland, Wabash, Kanswha and
Kentucky and forthe whole Mississippi
valley system. 1t is thousand miles
from Cairo to Pittsburg and Erie ship
canal would be long, circuitous and
expensive route for general Western
commerce. Cincinnati Is midway on
the Ohio river and Toledo is midway
on the chain of lakes. A direct and
costly canal already unites them. The
right of way sufficient for its enlarge
lnent to ship canal Is mainly secured.
The project il q commercial necessity
and will surely be realized. The APP
propriation asked is small and is in the
line of a grand national highway. The
House should not hesitate for a mo-
ment to back up the prompt action OF
the Senate.
