Overthrow Of Organism in Utah.

WHEELING. NOVEMBER 81. 1900
I chicago's Great Scheme.

It took Chicago a long time and at
great expenditure of money to construct
+ acanal from Lake Michigan to the Illinois
river to carry the waters Of the lake
/, back from the point Of. intake Of the
city's water supply, SO as to protect
that supply from contamination by the
sewage. 1t was n great undertaking.
but now that 1t has been, accomplished
and the purpose fulfilled for which 1t
was constructed. she wants 10 present
this s3S, 900 canal to the United States
on condition that II it shall be accepted
1t shall be converted into a ship water
way, from Lake Michigan to the Missis-
sippi. with a channel OF eighteen feet
depth. for vessels Of large tonnage.
In discussing this proposition the New
York Times intimates that 1t is not al
together as feasible as It looks. 1.-THE
sanction of Congress" 1t says, must
be obtained before this gift is accepted
upon the conditions proposed. In con-
sidering the proposition Congress would
possibly discover that before getting
an eightcen-foot channel through Chi
cago enormous expense, immediate and
dependent upon litigation. would have
to be incurred in lowering the tunnels
that now offer an obstacle to the MAX
ing Of o ship canal. Property of great
value would be injured, perhaps. and the
United States subjected to resultant
damages.
Then the Illinois river, now navlga-
BILE for most OF Its length by vessels Of
the llghtest draught only, would have
to be deepened, unauestionably at great
cost. certainly not less than the original
cost OF the drainage canal. Having
provided a channel to the Mississippi
for vessels OF sixteen and seventeen
feet draught, 1t would be manlfestly
useless to take vessels through it that
could go no further, even with the help
of the stills sometimes employed as
aids to navigation on the Illinois. That
the Mississippi would have to be con-
siderably deepeued between st. Louis
and the Gulf. for at least n large part
OF that long distance, may be inferred
from the fact that when, few years
ago. Secretary Long consented to send
to st. Louis, to be present on an impor-
tant occasion. a vessel OF the navy. he
selected the gunboat Helena, drawing
ten feet. as the largest vessel that could
be depended upon to reach ST. Louis
without grounding and to return to the
Gulf.
The scheme is an ambitious one. 1t
may be practicable. Uncertainty will be
expensive. 1t will involve, perhaps, the
question whether it viii be wise to draw
from Lake Michigan a. larger volume OF
water than is now going out through
the drainage canal. Upon Chicago Will
rest the burden Of accompanying Its Of
fer by arguments to show that It Is al
{. together n feasible scheme and one
worth the millions that must be ex-
pended to make It practicable and OF
value to the whole country. II the gift
is accepted tho United States will Ger
taInly Nft from Chicago the trouble and
expense of maintaining the drainage
canal"

Virginia,s Slow Growth

b ID. D..
The Richmond Dispatch Is bemoaning
the fact that she will lose part OF her
representation In Congress when the re-
apportionment under the new census Is
made. She now elects ten congress-
men, but II the reapportionmcnt is nude
on the basis of 100000 population for
every member of Congress. her repre-
sanitation will be cut down to
nine. In explaining the cause
of this slow growth, the Dis
patch says: CAS- for Virginia. there
can be no doubt that we have failed to
make such gains in population rs the
average state has made, because 80
many of our people have removed to
other parts OF the Union The negroes,
especially, have left US in great num-
bers. That we believe will be clearly
shown when the census tables Of our
eastern counties for 1900 are compared
with those of 1880 and $780,"
II the negro had been more fairly
treated we do not think he would have
been so anxious to leave the state. He
had no chance to rise under the kind of
government administered by the Demo-
!cracy of the Old Dominion and as a
consequence the negro has sought a
more congenIal cline. West Virginia
has, no doubt, gained largely from this
exodus, and on account OF 1t and the
encouragement she has given to other
strangers seeking home with us, has
been enabled TO not only retain her old
representation in Congress bu. will un-
doubsedly gain an additional member
under the same ratio that deprives the
mother state of one member.
