THE WAY TO
GET THE MONEY
AN ADDRESS ny GEORGE H..
MAXWELL AT THE NATIONAL
RIVERS AND HARBORS CON-
GRESS IN WASHINGTON on
DECEMBER 4, 1907.

Mr.. President and Delegates. La
dies and Gentlemen:
We have heard II said here today
n number OF times that we have
reached the bridge" which we must
cross before we can attain the goal
which is or objective point In this
movement for an adequate and ma
tional system OF rivers AMI harbors
IL seems TO me that we have yet
to build that bridge. In other words
the whole question OF the construc-
tion OF such a system OF river and
harbor improvements has resolved
Itself into a problem of how to get
the money.
The people at large are undoubt-
edly favorable TO such a policy, and
II the money were available it's ex-
penditure for that purpose would be
approved by tho general public.
But the sum required is stupend-
Gus In amOunt. IL would require az
least $500, 100000 within the next
ten years. and no doubt large addl-
tional sums would be annually re-
quired there after to enlarge and
perfect the system TO make il ade-
quate to the growing needs OF the
commerce of tho country.
IL Is not to be wondered at that
conservative men in Congress hest
tate to embark on so gigantic an
undertaking. and provide the money
by direct appropriation from the cur
rent annual revenues OF the govern
ment They have as yet no abso-
lutte and positive assurance that i'll
they did so, political opinion In its
mutations would steadfastly approve
such appropriations. This is more
especially true when il is considered !
that such Improvements are for the
benefit OF this generation; and Il
would seem only right that the bur
den OF cost should be apportioned
over a long series of years.
A construction fund of 100000
600 would require an average OF
$50. 900. 600 per year II paid anual-
ly from current revenues during that
period II the same total sum were |
spread over a period of 100 years,
The total amount 10 be paid would /
be only s5,OOO,OOO, a very small
amount when compared with the 4
sIm expended each year .
by the United States government. ,
OF course. 10 this would have TO be
added the interest, II the total sum
were 10 be provided in advance for
construction.
II would be very easy matter,
looking an il from the financial
standpoint alone, TO provide this
sum for construction as fast as
needed, by the issuance OF govern
nent bonds. We know perfectly
wen that II the United States Gov
srnment offers IT'S bonds in the mar
zet they will be snapped up with all
sagerness.
We must not overlook the fact
hat there is in the minds Of the
American people a rooted prejudice
against the Issuance OF bonds by the.
II Is true an issue of
$50. 200, 900 was recently authorized
o provide construction funds for the
Panama Canal, but Il took almost
. financial panic 10 create the emer-
,ency which brought about the APP

DEAR SRA meeting of the
Mississippi River Mound Associ-
alton, will be held Oh December
1st, 1908, at 3 o'clock p. NJ, at the
Carroll Hotel in Vicksburg, Miss.
The objects of this association
are to urge upon the L. S. Con-
gress the pressing need of legisla-
ton for the prompt settlement OF
damages which have accrued to
our citizens owning property be-
tween the leveps of the Mlssisslp-
pi River rs well rs to ask for the
building of Mounds for the future
protection of life and property,
&c.
1t is no longer n question as to
the liability of the Government
for the damages which have been
sustained and there is little doubt
we think that Bill will be
passed by which the statute of
limitations will be waived so that
claimants may get all proved
damages since the construction OF
the levees was first begun.
Papers will he read and the le-
gal status of the matters will be
discussed by lawyers of ability
familiar with these subjects.
We urgently request the per-
sonal attendance of all persons
interested and shall hope thereby
to increase our membership "a
such proportions rs to promptly
get the ear of Congress so that
our wrongs may be speedily rem
edied.
We will thank you TO give the
matter rs much publicity as you
can through local newspapers and

onto the spreader or sleigh rather
than running it out with litter car

PROVIDE HOME
GROWN FEEDS
BY w. j. McSparran.

In addition to the fact that home
grown feeds, that may be made to sue.
cessfully displace at least a portion
of the purchased concentrates, are
cheaper in cost than boughten ones,
we have the recommendation always
standing for them that they are nat.
ural feeds, and are, therefore, more
nearly measurable to the natural
needs of the animal than the feeds
of commerce, that have been sub.
jected to the manipulation of the var..
GUS manufacturers, who, indeed, have
given us merely by.products CT widely
variable values.
Among all our experimenters and
investigators, we have probably M
more practical one than DR.. Voorhees,
Of New Jersey. He says:
Mature has provided in the whole
grain good proportions of the pure
nutrients, usually associated with the
crude fiber in such way as to make
it difficult matter to cause injury
even from careless methods of feed
ing, while the manufacturer, on the
other hand, removes more or less OF
one of these nutrients, which, there.
fore, disturbs the proportions of the
constituents, and the resultant feed,
decidedly unbalanced, must be used
mere carefully and with other prod
ucts, If equally good results are to be
obtained"

They were anxious to see them.

spected the collection Of Indian paint

Indian life in its various phases.

was guiding the party. He has been

and has been admitted to practice in

could not tell Rembrandt from a
Remington, but know that Catlin's
pictures are the real thing, just as my
father and grandfather used to look
before Uncle Sam tried to make us
different and wear his kind of clothes
and eat his kind of food and let the
West Pointers and Tommy Burns and
the others do all the country's fighting.
THE only criticism the Indians have
to make of American art, as applied to
themselves, is the new artists, who
have never Travelled beyond the limits
of Pennsylvania avenue. Any one who
knows anything knows that the facial
expression of the Indian of to-day is
meek and subdued. Sometimes his
face lights up like the setting sun at
some pleasure or Renaissance. but he
is never ferocious looking. The new
artist ought to study evolution"
