NICARAGUA CANAL.
Great Thing for the Pacific Coast
Would Be u Powerful Aid In
Western Developments.

The Nicaragua canal Is subject very
much discussed just at this time on the
Pacific coast.
From statistics carefully cleaned by
the most authentic authorities, 1T Is
shown that from the different nations
Of the world and the islands OF the sea
there would pass through the canal a
possible annual traffic OF 14NO0, 600
tons, a probable traffic Of 10000, 600
tons. or a certain traffic of 8,000.00
tons, on which, if a toll of So. so ton
was imposed, an annual revenue OF
$40, 900, 600 would be obtained, or over
$19, 900, 900 over and above operating
expenses. A saving of $3.50 per ton
on wheat would amount to, say, Z
cents per bushel, and on lumber to IS
pei l 900 feet. A careful examination
made by the Maritime Canal Company
show that a possible one-half of the
s, 900, 900 tons traffic, which is claimed
will pass through the canal. Is Amer1-
can commerce, either coastwise or ex-
ports and imports. 1t seems to be fully
determined that if the canal is built at
all 1t must be built and operated as the
property of the United States govern
ment-built with the peoples money.
1t should be open and free and without
tonnage charge to all American COM
MERGE, coastwise, exports and IMPORTS;
and to compensate ourselves for our
outlay we should lay toll of at least 50
per ton on all traffic passing through
between foreign nations.
It Is estimated that 1t will require
not to ecxeed 500, 900, 900 to con-
struct the canal, although it Is claimed,

The farmers Of California, Washing
ton, Oregon and Idaho, now further
from the worlds markets than any
other agriculturists, would not only be
placed as near Liverpool as their COM
petitors in India, Chile and the Argen-
tine, but they would also have an ad-
vantage over their competitors of 50
per ton, or cents bushel; for the
wheat from India must bear 81 per ton
toll at the Suez canal, and We would
have the Pacific South American states
pay 81 per ton on the Nicaragua canal.
Then. too, our Atlantic and Gulf
ports would have this So per ton adj

European rivals in the great markets
of Japan, Korea. Australia and the
Pacific islands, as their rivals would be
compelled to pay the So per ton toll.
