Agitation For Improvement
of Nations Waterways Is
Now Reaching High Tide.
Interest in the Coming Ma
tional Rivers and Harbor's
Congress.
By Walter Parker.

New Orleans, Oct. 17.-Following
close on the heels OF a generation of
rapid development, wasteful extrava-
gance and the making Of many multi
millionaires. the multitude of Ameri-
can workers are now fast coming TO
see, not only the folly OF what has
been done, but the necessity for a
more consistent and economical policy
in regard to all those conditions which
affect the general welfare. More mil
lionaires have been made through
railroad promotion and building than
in any other way because the vast
land grants through which railroads
have been run have brought high
prices when sold by the railroads and
thereby railroad promoters have real
lied monster profits. On this paticu-
lar score the general public has no
concrete cause for complaint since
the same opportunity that gave the
far-sighted Speculation his millions
gave the farmer, the laborer and the
business man new opportunities for
the accumulation OF fortunes OF their
own
But aside from ali harmful prac-
tees, the rub comes when both the
railroads and the people are brought
down to hard pan and when future
profits become dependent upon sus-
tanned effort, economy and intelligent

TRANSPORTATION BY WATER
IS BECOMING A NECESSITY

management rather than upon the first
rich fruits of turning undeveloped
natural resources into sudden wealth.
And this great need for economy in
the use of natural resources, the eX-
pansiOn of markets and opportunities,
and the reduction of humanity's ever
living scheme for the obtaining of
food, raiment and such happiness as
lies within reach has brought the peo-
pie to an acute appreciation of the
value to them of open, free and prac-
tically unlimited water transportation
facilities through the turning of the
nations great rivers and lakes and
their tributaries into arteries of COM
merce.
Hence the huge general interest now
being taken in the coming assembling
of the National Rivers and Harbors
Congress at Washington December
gil of this year.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1908-10-18

According to the educational bu-
ganization, of which Congressman Jos.
E. Ransdell, of Louisiana, is the presi-
dent, Conservation of National Re-
sources" has been written into more
party platforms and into more resolu-
lions by more commercial and trade
organizations during 1908 than in all
the years the United States have
been in existence. According to Mr..
Ransdell, the wide and absorbing in
terest in the subject and especially in
the Improvement of the nations
waterways, has not yet reached high
tide.
The National Rivers and Harbors
Congress is working with an acutely
definite object in view, that of com
hitting the federal congress to a
broad and comprehensive policy of
waterway and harbor improvement in
place of the extravagant, wholly nm
satisfactory and even foolish method
of appropriating government moneys
for isolated projects in response TO
political demands and in payment of
political debts.
Some time ago Senator Knox, of
Pennsylvania, talked to the members
OF the Pittsburg chamber of commerce
on 1.-The Future of Commerce. during
which he said:
when the federal government as
sumed charge and control of the navi-
able streams of the interior it en-
tered into a practical contract with
the states and communities bordering
the streams, that their waterways
should be improved to their highest
capacity. The states were, thereby,
prevented from improving the streams
themselves. Corporate enterprise was
forbidden TO undertake the canaliza-
ton of. important stretches ard fix
the cost of their works and franchises
on the public. The federal govern
ment has made its formal and deliber-
ate declaration that it will do this
work That necessarily involves that
it will make the improvements ade-
quate to modern needs and possi5iii-
ties. To do any less would be mock
cry and breach of good faith"
