INLAND WATERWAYS.

Water furnishes the cheapest means OF
transportation, and the national govern
ment having the control Of navigable
waters, should improve them to their
fullest capacity. We earnestly favor the
immediate adoption OF a liberal and com
prehensive plan for improving every
water course in the Union which is JUS
tilted by the needs Of commerce. and to
secure that end we favor, when prac-
ticable. the connection of the Great Lakes
with the navigable rivers and with the
Gulf through the Mississippi River. and
the naviga bic rivers with each other. and
the rivers, bays. and sounds Of our coasts
with each other by artificial canals. with

lday of Thursday. A number Of welt
known speakers from all parts of this
country and England have been Sc
cured for the program, and these
speakers will take up the prohibition
question and discuss it not only from
the brewers standpoint, but from
every other point of view 1t is also
probable that the brewers viii decide
on some future policy to pursue re-
garding the agitation against the sa-
loon that is now sweeping the coun
try. For years the brewers made no
effort TO stem the agitation against
their interests They allowed the pro
hibitionists to make all sorts OF
statements without contradicting the
same and they feel now that the time
has come In which to present to the
lpublic the brewers side Of the aues

organized fight is now being made Ia
various parts of the country toward
a general housecleaning for better
class OF saloons, and at the coming
convention plans for still further ele
