in it the inspiring sugge stion of a
splendid prophecy rushing on to full
fillment. 1t is estimated t at the gov
ernmeft can reclaim 100000 200 acres of
land from the arid and desert wastes
of the west, while in Texas alone, if it
chusetts, we could take care of SO,ooO,-
900 of the earth's population. Let me
say to you that irrigation is as old as
the pyramids and that wherever in
tensive agriculture is practiced today
you find the wealthiest and most con-
tented people in the world. That spirit
Of adventure and demand for elbow
room that has characterized every pro-
gressives people since the phoenicians
bore Americans on to the nbracement
of FlorsFa, Texas and California into
the union ofHthe states.
Obeyins still the same spirit and
yielding TO the same great law the
American has begun the commercial
invasion of the Orient.
When I consider the geographical
position of the United States with re-
spstst hss Mesipo. to trf..a Pacific coast
states Of La.in-Ameriea, to the Pacific
coast provinces of China now depend
ent on Europe to provide them with the
necessities, and that Europe to gain
the trade of the Orient, must cross two
oceans while the United States will
cross but one, I am convinced that the
Great Master of the universe has de-
signed the American republic to eventu-
ally become the one transcendent civili-
zation Of the world. But the great
Master will not solve for us the prob
ems in transportation and statesman
that these conditions make
upon a chosen people.

The probabilities are that the bridges
over the east creek on North and
Eighth streets in Canton will be built
early this spring. The city has i'm
proved both streets and graded them
up TO both sides of the creek and all
that is needed is the bridge structures
to make travel possible.
At the last meeting of the city coun-
Gil a special committee was appointed
to await upon the county commission
ers and ascertain just when the
bridges will be erected, so that the city
could take intelligent action as to fur
tber improvements. Residences have
been built on both North and Eighth
streets beyond the creek and the peo-

asked Wednesday morning. when the
bridges would be built He said:
$50 far as l am concerned. I am in
favor of putting up those two bridges
as soon as it can be done. 1t will prob
ably be necessary to issue bonds in Or
der to secure the necessary cash, fol
If the amount is taken out of the bridge
fund we will be crippled all summer
The bridges will be 100 feet span anJ
possibly "a or 60 feet wide. They viii
last for 90 years and there is no rea.
son why future generations should not
help pay for them.
"Wc occasionally hiar complaints
from people living in the country
townships that Canton and Massillor
get more than their share of the bridge
fund. These people forget that in this
city there is at least one-third of tho
population of the entire county AM
that the city pays more than one-thirt
of the entire taxes collected.

ISOLATION Will Not be Able
to Control Prices In
Canton,

Bright, comparatively warm days are
bringing on the. season of new maple
products at rate which promises TO
see fresh goods on the market much
earlier than usual. No new syrup or
sugar has as yet been offered in Canton
Stark county produces very little of
either and most of that which is sold
here comes from Portage and Geauga
counties. An association of maple syr
uB makers was formed at, Burton,
Geauga county, few weeks ago and
an effort will be made to maintain
prices. Local dealers do not appre-
bend that such effort will affect the
market materially. for while Geauga
county is the banner maple producing
county of the state there are too many
other localities which furnish both
syrup and sugar to allow to small a
community to govern more than its
own local price to an appreciable ex-
tent. Although last season was NOT
a good one in the maple camps, prices
of syrup are not usually high now aud
the new sweets will be on hand be-
fore there is any thing like famine
in the supply carried over from the
crop of last spring.
