None So Blind as Those Who Will
Not See.

Chicago papers, influenced manifest
ly by railroad interests, having OPP
posed the Hennepfn canal from the in
eipiency of the project and belittled
it at every step of its progress, de-
cline even now that it is completed TO
view it as worthy undertaking.
More than that now that the work is
done within the allotted appropriation
at a vast expenditure of money they
ridicule it as failure and scout at
its merit
In its issued last Sunday the Tribune
endeavored laboriously to show that
the canal would not hold water. Never
theless with the arrival at the port of
Rock Island yesterday, amid glad ac-
claim, of the first boat that had success
fully made the passage of the entire
canal occurred the vindicatiOn beyond
question of the great enterprise. The Chi
Icago papers continue to frown upon this
great cross country waterway con-
meeting lake and river, treating the ac-
cOmplishment as of minor Importance
and allude to the time occupied in the
experimental trip as the salient feature
of the cruise.
The Chicago papers are plainly de-
termined not to see what has been
accomplished or to recognize the
canals significance as n regulator of
the rates of interstate commerce.
A year hence they will witness, even
with their eyes closed, what the Illinois

A cottage house 80 by CT feet is
given in this plan. This length is
sufficient to provide for good large
rooms and 70 arrange them very
nicely
The location of a bathroom in n
cottage has always given architects
a great deal of trouble. You don't
want a bathroom near the parlor. nor
the diningroom. and il is not always
convenient TO have il open OFF the
kitchen. Some architects solve the
problem by leaving out the bathroom
altogether, but most persons need a
bath occasionally, at least civilization
has worked at the problem a hundred
years or so, and has finally decided
that IL is better to take a bath once
in awhile whether You need it or not
A good many jokes have been sprung
TO illustrate the point. and they may
have had some influence. 1t any rate
we seldom see good house nowadays
without a bathroom, and VIC never
find person who is willing tc do
without one after having once en-
1oyed the luxury. The bathroom In this
house opens on from the kitchen. but
there is also a door entering from the
