NORTHWEST SHOULD BE GREAT
Lf INTERESTED IN THE COM
ING CONVENTION.
THEY PROMISE PROSPERITY
IN THE ACTUAL sAv1NG ON
FREIGHTS TO EASTERN
MARKETS.
On the Yearly Crop as Shown by
Figures Compiled From
Crop Statistics.

In view of the fact that a very
influential convention is to be
held in Cleveland, Sept. 24-26, for the
promotion of deep-water navigation
from the great lakes to the ocean,
and in view of the great bearing this
question OF cheaper transportation
has on the future of the Northwest
and of this city, I beg permission to
lay before the public, through your
columns, some figures which have
been prepared by M. G. N. Dutton,
prominent engineer, who has prob
ably given more attention to this
subject than any other man. I have
not verified the figures made, but l
present them as furnished to me in
the hope that others may be stimu-
lated to investigate them. They are
large enough to arouse every bust
ness man in the Northwest to learn
if it is possible to realize such re-
suits as Mr.. Dutton says are pos.
slble. l publish them with a view
to gaining the attention particularly
of newspapers, congressman and
boards of trade, in the hope that the
approaching convention may be
crowded by representative of North
western papers, members of con-
gress and commercial bodies. Fol
lowing are the statements of Mr.,
Dutton: -
Sixteen great states, namely, Indi-
ana, Ohio, Illinois, Kentucky Mich
igan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa,
Missouri, North Dakota, South Dao
kota, Nebraska, Kansas, Montana,
Wyoming and Colorado, must ship
their surplus agricultural products
from the great lakes to the seaboard.
Deep water navigation would effect
an immediate reduction in freight
costs and consequent increase in
crop values of an average of five
cents a bushel on grain and .pota-
toes, 81 a ton on hay and So ton
and upwards on straw.
In the sixteen states most bene-
fitted, the direct money gain, comput-
ed on the crop reports of 1894, will be
as follows:

WHERE WAS LUCAS.
Gus RunSe Chairman of the Res.
ervoir Employees, Meeting.

The mass meeting of the reservoir
employees last night at Bridge square
was nearly a fizzle. At o'clock nearly
hundred men had congregated around
the city hall. They sat about in little
groups until o'clock, trying to find
out who had called the meeting, and
for what purpose it had been called.
Finally, after waiting two hours, some
gentlemen proposed that, in order to
get home, the meeting appoint Gus
Runge chairman. Gus accepted the
honor, and stated that he supposed the
meeting was called to protest against
the injunction on the issuing of bonds
for the reservoir work. He suggested
that committee be appointed to draw
up resolutions protesting against the
injunction. He was given authority to
appoint the committee, and said he
would make the appointments this
morning at the works
Andy Dolan was called on for an adj
dress, and spoke briefly. He said that
he could not understand how any man
claiming to have the interests of the
city at heart could protest against is
suing the bonds in the face of return
ing better times.

The sixteen states above referred to
have a total area in improved farm
lands of 1875, 326. 876 acres. The increased
value of the production of these lands
will be $3.50, sec, Geo annually, an in
creased annual earning of 1913 1-3 per
acre. If the market value of land de-
pend upon its earning power, and the
ratio of increase of value be taken at
