GAUGING THE RIVERS.

To return again to the rivers and harbors, we need all the time train ed body--as efficient at least as the interstate commerce commission-to consider all the time the whole prob- lem of waterway improvement, inland and seaboard, and to view it as a unit This commission needs to consider our internal and external trade, plat the rivers according to their eventual na- tional utility, and plan for their sys- tematic development, in order at the earliest possible moment to attain the use of them. It must adopt standards, so that rivers of A-class, for example, having, let us say, three-foot draft will have lock chambers all of A-size, and that on B-class rivers, which may in- clude the four-foot, lower reaches of the A-class. there will be the same size or larger lock, all B-standard, so that in ascending or descending the streams the A-class vessels may be certain that wherever they go there will be no obstruction between their iiShAC PbAA anu NllG Sttif UT bttNeel their home port and any other A-class port. This matter of gauge is as vital in rivers as it is in railway construction It is so recognized abroad. where Ger many, France, Austria, Hungary, and Russia have combined to adopt stand ard cross sections for their locks and canals, so that a vessel may pass from the Atlantic to the Black sea overland, or from the Caspian to the Baltic.- Atlantic.

RETRIBUTION.

Cotton is being held back as it nev- CT was before and there are two direct reasons why, one entirely agreeable to the farmers and the other matter of serious import to them. The planters to begin have, to all intents and pur- poses, organized a trust or combina- ton in restraint of trade. They have conspired to hold up cotton for 15 cents pound and they are being aid- eu In a way not at all to their liking by the cotton manufacturers, who are buying very sparingly at time when It was expected that their purchases would be large. Money conditions are responsible for this condition of af- fairs and as a result the growers must hold up their cotton or be sWamped in an avalanche of abnor- mai low prices, as, should cotton held up be forced into the market, 10 cents pound would be a big price for it. It is a case of self-preservation. and the growers are getting very liberal dose of the medicine they had prepar- ed for others.-American Cotton and Wool Reporter.

THOSE THEY LEFT BEHIND.

The lonely estate of all the girls left behind while the big fleet is on its cruise will appeal to the senti- mental and to the generally sympa- thetic persons. There must be many throughout the land of these bereft ones. One cannot say exactly how many of them there are, but to know just how many men are sailing will enable one who insists on having ev- erything in plain figures to arrive at the approximate number who will for a few months now know an acute af- lection of the heart whenever the band plays The Girl I Left Behind Me" Certain comforting assurances each of these girls" has with her, no doubt, to cheer her In moments of de- jection, and then there is an addition al drop of comfort to be found in the public or official announcement that every Saturday night the officers will give a toast to 'sweethearts and wives. ."-Boston Transcript.

~-------- -------------~----- FOOTBALL AND SCHOLARSHIP

If Dr. Butler of Columbia thought the same way B Professor Melon of the Spanish department as the Uni versity of Minnesota football soon would be restored at Columbia. The Minnesota man believes that football is most important to the quality of study in the university. Just before the game between Chicago and Min nesota, Professor Melon said: The scholarship in the university will be lowered if we do not beat Chicago. When a defeat has been sustained all interest in class work vanishes. but after a great victory every one Is bright, jubilant. enthusiastic and this spirit enters into the class room, in citing all to better lessons" Professor Melon said that he noticed that con dition particularly in the period be- tween 1896 and 1900, when the Min nesota teams get beaten fairly often. Chicago defeated Minnesota this year, and scholarship is probably suffering New York Sun.
