The International Platform.
sSE The platform of the International Asso-
citation is as follows:
Whereas This convention has assembled
n for the purpose of promoting the union of the
lakes and the high seas. by waterways of the
greatest practi able capacity and usefulness;
and recognizing the supreme utility Of such
waterway development,
Resolved. That the depth of all channels
through the lakes and their scaboard connec-
lions be not less than Il feet, and that all per
manent structures be designed on a basis of
not less than rs feet, in order that the greater
depth may be quickly and cheaply obtaine i
whenever demanded by the future necessities
of commerce.
Resolved, That this convention recognizes
the utility of the natural route to the sea by
the st. Lawrence river as most quickly and
cheaply improvable. and is also impressed
with the commercial necessity Of the route
reaching the Atlantic ocean via the Hudson
river.
Resolved, That we recommend that the gov
ernments Of Canada and the United States an
point a joint commission to consider and re-
port fully upon the advisability Of the two

the prObabl character and expense thereof.
together with the equitable share that should
be charged to each country, and whether the
countries may not cooperate in said un-
lertaking in all matters necessarily interna-
"a tional in character.
Resolved, That we cordially approve all pro-
}sjects designed to extend marine I'M by
III means Of waterways from the great lakes into
III new:territory.
Resolved, That as a preparation for the Joint
promotion of common interests, it is desirable
that a permanent court should be constituted
for the decision by rules of law Of all questions
of an international character which may in
n wise arise between the peoples and govern
ments of the British empire and the United
States.
Resolved, Tha these resolutions be respect

Hustler Flower.
Ex-Commissioner Flower arrived from
Wisconsin Sunday night, in order to have
everything in readiness to dispatch the
business of the meeting without hitch. He
seems to be the chief worker and organizer
OF the entire association. He has turned
over the management Of his newspaper,
the Superior Leader, to others in order to
devote his entire time to the promotion of
this international ship channel.
He goes "loaded for bear everywhere
and all the time, talking deep water as if
his life depended on it. No one can raise
any question relative to treaty dificulties,

NEW YORK, Nov. 27.-The World
publishes a list showing the number of
votes cast by the Populist party in all
Of the states at the last general election
as compared with the votes cast by the
same party in 1892. The World also
says: In 1892 the Populist party polled
altogether LOAF, 02s votes for president.
Between 1892 and 1894 there was no
general election, the returns of which
can be compared with the year proceed.

matte intricacies that he is not ready to
meet and explain.
Engineer Cooley's Views.
Lyman r. Cooley, chief engineer of the
Chicago sanitary canal, on which the city
is spending So, 100000, said:
M Flower is our leader and great
worker; go to him for information. I
shall prepare a digest of engineering in
formation with maps, diagrams and esti-
mates of a 26-foot channel from Lake Erie
to the ocean-we shall have % feet at the
500 when the new lock is opened next
summer-but the entire subject except
that is in Mr.. Flowers hands.
II will say this however, there will be
no let up from this time forward until
there shall be a free ship channel to the
sea so that vessels loading here at Chicago,
or at Duluth and Superior, will not have
to break bulk or stop until they reach
Liverpool, Glasgow, South America or
Calcutta"
A Seaport of Chicago.
1T is hardly possible to give out in adj
vance," said Secretary Flower, 'the prob
able work of the executive board. Some
Of the Canadians may be absent, but I
think all of the Americans will be here.
There is a secret International commit
tee. We do not know what their report
will be. On it we shall base certain feat
ures Of u programme for the future.
Therefore we can only give out a general
outline of our work in advance.
THE most conspicuous and startling
proposition, of course, is that we intend to
make a seaport of Chicago-Chicago, which
now claims 100000 inhabitants. But
when, with one twist Of the wrist, we make
a seaport of Chicago, we shall also send
ocean ships into every other port on the
Great Lakes from Superior and Chicago
to Sackett's Harbor-if their slips and
harbors are deep enough. just look at
the list of the greater seaports we shall

Surprised the Charge.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-The edict
permanently excluding all American
newspapers from Turkey, as announced
by the Associated Press cable from Con-
stantinople, has not yet been officially
communicated to the Turkish legation
here. Secretary Norighian Effendi is
in charge of the legation during the alb
sence Of Minister Mavroyani Bey. Mr..
Norighian expressed surprise that the
edict should have such scope as to be a
permanent exclusion to the American
press; and he thinks the report may
prove overdrawn in this respect. There
is a press censorship in Turkey, he
says, similar to that conducted in most
European countries. Mr.. Norighian
says such laws and censorship are COM
non throughout Europe, and are in
marked contrast with the lack Of super.
vision and censorship in the United
States.

CoNsTANTINoPLE, Nov. 27.-The re-
cent edict calling for the seizure at the
frontier of foreign newspapers contain
ing accounts Of the Armenian massa-
ores, prohibits the entry Of every Amer
lean newspaper into Turkey. This
action on the part Of the Turkish gov
ernment is supposed to be due to the
attitude assumed by the American press
on the Armenian question.

A Half Dozen New Yorks.
"To carry out these plans would make
Chicago, Milwaukee, Duluth, Superior and
Detroit to the country back of them what
New York and Boston are to the territory
in their rear.
But the quickest and greatest benefits
would be to the great producing sections
of the West. The wheat fields of Argen-
tina, India, Egypt and Southern Russia
are comparatively close to ocean trans
portation. The wheat fields of America
are almost 1900 miles from the sea-and
the market of the world is on the other
side of the sea.
"If that 1900 miles of costly land trans
portation transferring from cars to boats
at Duluth, Superior, Milwaukee, Chicago
and Toledo, and from boats back to
cars again at Buffalo and other
Eastern points, can not be broken
by a continuous channel to the ocean, the
Great West will have to cease raising
wheat except for domestic consumption.
because she can not pay rail rates to the
seaboard and compete with foreign wheat.
"And when the West is forced to cease
exporting the United States will receive
the most staggering blow in her history
and all Western railroads and Western
cities will be paralyzed.
''The saving in freight to the West by
having water transportation is more than
500, 100000 per season, as can be proven;
while all we ask of both Canada and the
United States to make our ship channel
from Chicago, Milwaukee, Duluth and Su-4
perior to the ocean and to Liverpool is
only $5O,000,O0O.
"But no matter what it costs, we must
have it.

WHICH WILL PREVAIL !

1t is not yet certain that the Constiu-
tional Convention will reject the propo-
sitiJn to prohibit any statutory iimita-
ton OF the amount of damages 10 he
given by jury in case OF the loss Of
human lie. The Committee reported
against the prohibition, giving as their
reason for its rejection the plea that
the subject is one proper II leave to the
Legislature. But the Convention 5 to
vote on the acceptance OF the report
this evening. and there is some eXpecta-
ton that the majority may refuse 10
concur.
The question is very simp.c one
Outside the argument that it Is incon-
sistent with a wise and Just policy to
put any arbitrary limitation on the
amount OF damages to he assessed for
loss OF life or personal injury In any
case. the fact Is plain that 1t is incon-
slstent to allow jury to give such an
amount as may seem adequate for the
loss OF an arm and to be restricted as
to the sum 1t shall assess for the loss
OF a human life. The value OF mans
life to his family varies according to
circumstances
The corporations alone are interested
in retaining the Limitation and in de-
feating the proposed constitutional PROFIT
bitiJn. The result of to- nights vote will
afford fair test OF the control the
railroad corporations have over the Con-
vention. Reason. common sense ana JUS
tice demand the rejection OF the Com
mittees adverse report. The raiirda, |
corporations alone demand its aCCep-
lance Which will prevail?
