CANALS FOR ECONOMY.

They Are Required if the Railroads
 Have Reached the Limit.
 President Hill of the Great Northern railroad recently made a statement in regard to freight rates that would have been of great assistance to the advo- cates of canal improvement in New York had it been uttered before the re- cent election. which, happily, however. resulted in the success of the canal cause. MT. Hill is reported to have said. in commenting on the Cooper bill which aims to empower the interstate com- merce commission to make rates, sub ject to revision by the courts:
 'The question of rates have reached a point where they must necessarily be advanced unless the railway managers can discover new methods of economy in transportation. Tn the main, be- lieve we have reached the limit of econ omy, as well as in the amount of ton- mage. It is plain, therefore, that the price of materials and wages will have to be reduced or freight rates will have to be advanced Rates in this country are about 40 per cent. of what they are in Europe, while wages are from two and one-half to four times as high as the scale in Europe. The only alterna- tive to an advance in rates is an in- crease in tonnage, and cannot see how this is to be done unless we can create new markets for our products"
 If the limit of economy in railroad ! ltransportation has been reached. the improvement of the canals of New York. which has been ordered by the vote of the people of the state, will be of ilnmeasurable benefit not only to New York city and the people of the empire. state, but to the people of the entire northwest. An enlarged Erie canal, capable of passing barges carry | ing approximately 1000 tons, would en- able the 7eana, carriers to transport freight even more cheaply than at pres- ent, and thus put the canal route far be- yond the reach of competition by the railroads. which with natural self-in- terest have been trying to Aefeat every canal enterprise that has ever been mooted.
 The influence of water routes on rail transportation was recently revealed at the conference of railroad freight man. agers consequent upon the close navi- gation and the resumption of the winter monopoly enjoyed by the railroads. It was proposed at this conference to ma terially raise the rates on coal, and this
 proposition would have been accepted were it not for the fact that business conditions are such as to warrant con- lservatism in the matter of rates on fuel The rates have not been advanced, but the railroads have the power to put them up whenever they choose. and
 they will have that power until the IoDening of navigation, when the infiu- Ience of the water route on the freight
 market will be in the direction of lower Irates than are generally enjoyed during I the winter. Milwaukee Wisconsin.

YALE TERRITORIAL GOVERNORS

YALE TERRITORIAL GOVERNORS. The inaugural address of Governor Carter, of the territory of Hawaii, to which reference is made elsewhere is the address of a man who feels the re- sponsibility of his position, and, at the same time, is glad to take up the work for his native country. One or two of the American newspapers have quoted
 the address freely, getting little fun from it because the governor seems to ltake himself so seriously. It is not the kind of political address one hears ivery often in this country and almost never from veteran in politics. So lmuch the better. It has the ring of sim cerity and the serious enthusiasm of youth. The governor intends to be taken seriously and if he is, as gover- nor, of the same stuff as he was as col lege student,-if he is to be man among men as he was boy among boys, which is quite likely; if he is to rule the ter ritory as he swung starboard stroke or as he created vacuua in the immediate lvicinity of tackle, or as he stripped sophomores or freshmen off the fence, according as the occasion indicated, we believe that people will decide it was good, square dealing on his part to give them notice now that he was going to be serious about this business of being governor. We agree with the New York Sun in the belief that Governor Carter will find that he will not have to sacri- flee so many friends or so many of the sweet pleasures of life as he anticipates
 However, we know he will sacrifice anything that is necessary for the con- mon good, which is the main point.
 Unless we mistake not, Governor Carter took office while yet Governor Taft reigned as Manila, which is the same as saying that the four great out lying territories of these United States lof America were all under Yale control. With the Hon. John Brady, Yale "A,

tT0o=MANY COLLEGES.

 Upon this proposition the Jour nal is emineutly correct. What the state of Arkansas needs is not more out fewer colleges. Build good public schools and academies and devote all surplus educational energies to strengthen the col- ieges we already have. Every towl. does not heed a college, just as every town does not need de"f-mute institute or d blind school. Two or three genuine colleges, unhampered by financial endorsements and doing real collegiate work are worth infinite ly more to the state than score of weak institutions that are colleges only in name.-Log Cabin Demo- Craf,
