Mayor of Manltowoc.

CVSh A1iA
Your favor of March 18th to Mr..
Whitcomb Is before me. stating that tie
city has received bids for dredging the
river to an amount not less than two
hundred Thousand (200.000) yards. and as
much more as the city shali require; and
asking whether this company wants the
city to Gredge this season in front of the
railroad property as far as, or farther
than. State street.
1ou say you have beard conflicting re
ports about our wishes. I do not know
what Won refer to, and request yon to
disregard everything except what comes
officially from me. This company has
not changed its desire or its policy in any
respect We want the dredging of the
river to be continued vigorously and
without cessation above the Northwest
ern bridge 20 the extreme limits Of the
harbor lines. The welfare of the city de.
mands 1t to be done. and it's importance
cannot be overestimated, Tie railroad
can wait for the dredging of the river
above State street, but the city cannot
afford TO do so, it it Is to attract indus
tries aud factories 20 Manitowoc. Your
competitors are gaining on you fast in
the other lake harbors. We propose to
hoep pace Will Tue city anu Iulnl our
obligation along the harbor lines. how
ever far or fast the city may GO.
To dredge promptly the Manltowoc
har5or is of indispensable consequence to
the city. It is prerequisite to drawing
lake commerce thither,as we'll as to es
tabilshlng in Manltowoc manufacturing
plants seeking eastern outlet for their
products. The railroad mauIfestly has
only slight and indirect interest IN this
growth Of lake traffic eastward, but ii
wants the city to grow and get the full
advantage of it's maritime Developments.
and will coOpera2 heartily in doing all
the dredging hich belongs to this com
pany to do.
Yours reSDectfully

HE SENTINEL OF Monday published
an article from the PEG of L. J. Nash of
THIS city on primary elections, and devo
ted column editorial to the subject and
10 Mr.. Nash's contribution. The EDITOR.
al strongly commends the purpose which
hctuated MIR. Nash, and his attitude IN
regard TO the question which is wholly
without Interior motiva. It suggests
discussion Of Mr.. Nasd's points witt
view TO emphasize by approval or to
modfy, Il that appears the proper course.
hT. Nash, 10 this matter has nothing
more IN view than the inauguration Of
system which will obvIate difficulties in
securing a full, free and unpreindiced
expression OF popular opinion on public
questions.
The article Will not bear hasty perus-
al. # comment is the purpose. and for
this reason The Pilot forbears comment
at this time though strongly incliped to
approval. From what it knows of Mr..
Nash 1t wonld say he desires critical ex
amIuailon, careful scrutiny and candid
OPINION. 1t Is the most elaborate scheme
yet prepared and is backed by honest
motive and good purpose There may
be difference of opinion regarding details.
bnt the structure rests On Il solid focnda-
llon. The press of the state SHOULD dis
cuSs 1t In the same spirit 10 which IL IS
written.
