A SHIP CANAL ACROSS FLORIDA
Senator Fletcher Tells of What
Benefit one Would be.

A ship canal across Florida will come
In time-but not soon. The govern
ment has about all it can attend to
now in the Panama ditch and congress
will not give favorable consideration to
o s50,0O0,0O0 job until the Isthmian
canal is completed. Senator Fletcher,
however, in calling attention to the
merits Of the project and it will not be
very many years before the scheme is
made part Of the national waterway
improvement plans. In outlining his
ideas, of the canal Senator Fletcher
said :.
1--WE must meet waterway improve
ment in foreign countries by waterway
improvements at home, if we would
maintain supremacy or even standing
In markets abroad.
1.-THE problem of the cheapest and
safest means of transportation now
required by the southern, western
and northern growers is solved when
the. United States Gulf ports are
opened and the Florida ship canal on
the lock system is constructed.
"a ship canal across the peninsula
Of Florida would shorten by about 500
miles the route from the Atlantic ocean
into the Gulf of Mexico, especially to
/ the Gulf ports of the United States,
and avoid the dangerous navigation OF
the gulf stream through the Straits
of Florida. BY this canal the COM
merce of this northern continent would
be placed more than thousand miles
nearer to the Central American
republic.
"The general opinion seems to be
that tidewater canal is impracticable'
For the lock canal almost a straight
! line across the narrowest part OF the
peninsula could be selected, passing
through number of large lakes anc
using some portions OF rivers. This
canal would be a part OF the contem
plated inland water circuit Of the whole
Of the central and eastern parts OF the
United States, east Of the Rocky Noun
tains..
1T is estimated that the canal car
be dug for 5O,0OO,OOO. 1t has been es
tiuated also that more than 30,OOO,OO'
tons would pass through the cana
yearly, which does not include th'
enormous traffic from Mexico, Nlcar
aqua, Costa Rica or certain othel
countries whose traffic would bring thu
tonnage, under reasonable estimate
70 total Of 6O,OOo,OOO tons annually

Dad company would be satlsfed.

road company would be satisfied.
Under the Compact the railroad di-
vision would be sovereign for the pur-
pose Of satisfying demand and the
whole Of society through the principle
Of organization would be found to sup
port 1t,
The power OF the railroad division
would be unlimited for the END for
which it existed.
Under the Compact the power Of
every division would be unlimited in
the fulflment of its purpose. 1t is al
most impossible to conceive the power
of the railway company, the wheat
growers, the cotton growers, ETC., or
gained and forming a compact to sat
isfy demand
1t may be asked what will be the SUI
preme authority, and what will be the
bond of union for these sovereign pow
ers under the Compact. The supreme
authority will be the law Of demand
Every division recognizes the law ant
organizes TO satisfy IL. This is power
above man, constant and everlasting.
The bond Of union lies in the fac
that all divisions and subdivisions viii
be organized for the purpose of salts
flying this supreme power-the law o
demAnd. To conceive Of q change o
oreanlzatigr would be TO conceive Of |
state In which demand could not b.
satisfied perfectly.
