pIOVcuucul VI GDlS I1VcT HAS DceI ulSCuSS6U
during the past few years. This is the
proposition that Congressman McCleary
has been consulting the army engineers
about, and 1t involves the joining togeth-
er of Big Stone Lake and Lake Traverse
by means of canal, and the improve
ment of both the Minnesota and the Red
River of the North. If tins plan was
carried out, uninterrupted navigation
from the Gulf Of Mexico to Hudson's
bay would be secured, and what choice
of markets would be opened up to the
farmers residing in the fruitful water
shed of these proud streams. The pro-
moters of the plan have no doubt that,
could the work be accomplished, the cost
of transporting grain to the Atlantic sea-
board would be reduced to minimum.
Should the Hennepin canal project be
carried out, the grain could be foated
down the Minnesota to the Mississippi
rivers, and by way of the canal and the
great lakes to the eastern terminals. In
terror commerce would be enllvened by
a gigantic system of transportation, and
renewed and increase. prosperity would
follow.
About this time a convention was held
at Fargo, at which the cost of canal
uniting Big Stone and Lake Traverse was
estimated at 100000. This would be
too large figure to-day. A reservoir
system at these lakes would prevent the
disastrous and oftrepeated overhows of
the Red river valley. The water thus
boarded up could be released during the
summer months, thus maintaining a
sufficient stage of water at all seasons
for steam boats of light draught.
A Washington dispatch says Repre-
sentatives McCleary, Boen and Hall will
try to get this plan before congress in
some shape, but it remains to be seen
whether they will be successful. While
all of them are of the opinion that this
would be good thing if they have any
knowledge of the temper of congress at
this time, they realize full we'll that the
appropriation necessary to carry outsuc-
cessfully the plan they have IN mind
could never be made at this session. It
is even improbable that any appropria-
ton in future giving sufficient amount
of money to do the work could be Sc
cured until the matter could be properly
put before congressional committee by
means of diagrams and maps of the ter
ritory, in order to prove that the plan
was at all feasible. There is money
available for arranging diagrams and
maps, and this must come from some
source before practical work can be be-
gun. Congressman McCleary had this to
say about the matter today:
''The idea of our work grew out of
two facts. First-The superabundance
of water in the Red River valley. Sc
cond-The lack Of it in the Minnesota
river. We would like, if practical, to
remedy both difficulties; thereby gain
ing drainage to the valley and navigation
to the Minnesota. So far we have been
simply studying the situation and in
dulging hopes rather than expectations"
Representative Baldwin was asked
what he thought about the scheme, and
said:
81 am always in favor of improving
any river or harbor in the state of Mime
sofa, but this matter is entirely imprac-
ticable in my opinion Marshall Mes

affairs that are quite beyond your inter
ference is not q good sign. It implies
weakness. And between ourselves, Pef-
fer, we suspect that you had no right to
speak for 'the people Of the Vest in
that way. The majority of them are too
sensible to lose patience with anything
so far off and SO much beyond their
reach as the metropolitan press.
Calm yourself, PETER. You do not

you do. In the Judgment of many
thoughtful persons in this country much
that you think you know as to the con
duct of public affairs is not SO, and there
is very little of it that it would not be
relief to the country and an advantage to
yourself to hold stopper on. Your
predecessor, John James Ingalls,, was gi-

lowed his mouth out into private life.

Frank Simmons has begun the removal

city and the old sheds are to come down.
Later it is hoped and confidently expected
that the grounds will be improved, the read

built over and possibly the landi'g walled
These changes will transform one of the
most upsightly spots in the city into pretty
little oasis amid the business blocks and
will afford opportunity to land from tie

FOOT BALL Al c0Nf.


The Cony high school foo. ball eleven
has cancelled the game With the Bangor
high school team, which game was to have
taken place next Saturday.
This action was necessitated by the crip-
pied condition of The local team. Well.

and cannot play. Weber, the

in the season and will not be

half, was hurt in the Portland game, injur-

Center Rush Woodbridge and Tackle
Brann the only experienced players on the
eleven fit for work next Saturday. The
Rsnt's Hill and Portland games have shown
that the boys have no chance of winning
with their team even worse crippled than
at the times of these contests.
Many think it would be the better part Of
valor for the team to disband for the sea-
son. The youngsters upon whom the main
reliance must now be placed will be the
better for having had years growth free
from the strain of games and having been
able to acquire proficiency through judi
cious practice.
The '95 team should be strong one,
with F. Chase. Weber, G. Savage, Bas-
combe, II, True. FEEDER, GIidden, May,
Whitehouse, Herriek, Il. Chase, Howes,
Bailey and other, 10 choose from. The
one thing needed for success 10 that the
team should begin practice next spring.
Considerable preliminary work could then
be done. The rules could be studied and
the boys coached in the game, This would
put the team in such condition that next
fall sharp practice with a good second
eleven could be begun at once. The foot
ball spirit is growing stronger every year at
Cony and there is no reason why, if the
whole school works together the C.. I'll. S.
PLAYERS should not be the champions of 95.
They cannot be even frst-class compt titors
next year. any more than this, if more men
do not turn out daily for practice and if the
preliminary work is not done before the
season opens.
