THE WATERWAY PERIOD.
Canals and Improved Rivers Next
Step in Transportation Facilities.
From the st. Louis Post Dispatch.

FROM the 81. Louis POSt-Dlspatch
The revolution of public sentiment on
the subject of waterways is indicated by
the unqualified Endorsement Of waterway
improvement by President Finley of the
Southern railway in his address to ST.
Louis business men, He placed the i'm
Importance with the expansion and i'm
prOvement of railroads.
This utterance emphasizes the new
view of waterways to which the railroad
managers have come. Until few years
ago the railroad owners and managers
were the most persistent opponents of
waterway improvements. We have
passed through a period of tremendous
railroad expansion. The public mind has
regarded waterways with Indifference
and some contempt. The railroad was
the thing and the railroad man was king
of transportation. Regarding the water
way as a competitor he fought the de-
velopment of water transportation.
But with the vast growth of industry
and commerce and the consequent over
broader and more intelligent view of the
possibilities of both. They are recognized
as supplementary. The railroad men are
glad to yield the heavier freight to the
rivers, lakes and canals and to cooperate
with water lines. They find that the
waterway relieves the railway of cheap
bulky freight and keeps it buster with
profitable traffic.
The next great advance in transporta-
tion facilities will be the Improvement of
rivers and the building of canals. 1t will
go hand in hand with railway extension
and Will contribute as much to the coun-
tryS development and prosperity.

United States Senator John Walter Smith
is president Of the board of managers of
this institution. which was established
by the state for the purpose Of caring for
cases Of tuberculosis in their first or in
cipient stage. The work was begun in
1903, when the legislature made a rather
modest appropriation. and in 1908 $1.OO OO

opened its doors for the reception Of pa

1t is reported that republican primary
meetings will be held Saturday, July 81,
in Prince George county for the selection
of delegates from each of the seventeen
election districts to the county convention.
which will probably meet the following
Monday In Marlboro. There is some SEN
timent within the party's ranks for the
Crawford or direct system of nomina tin g
candidates, but the leaders do not appear
to take kindly to the idea. The Marlboro
convention will select five delegates to the
seventh judicial circuit convention. and it
is conceded that these delegates will vote
for f. SnoWden Hill for the nomination
for judge, to success Judge T. Van Cla-

will also nominate state senator, four

SCIENCE NOTES.

There are two waterways across Scot
land at the present time. One of them
is the Caledonian canal. which has a
large number of locks and will receive
vessels up to l6O feet in length. The
other is the Forth and Clyde canal, thir
ty-nine miles long, twenty-seven feet wide
at the bottom and ten feet deep, which
was opened for traffic in 1890. AS part of
the general plan for British national de-
Tense the construction of a great modern
waterway across the country is being
considered. There are several Sug5eS-
tions, but none of the projects under dis
cussion relates to the Caledonian canal,
but there are several with regard to the
other. One of them is TO enlarge 1t to ac-
commodate the heaviest battleshipS of the
navy, and the other is to alter il into a
tidal canal. with hydraulic lifts at each
end. Other plans for ship canal have
also been proposed. One of these starts
in the neighborhood of Clydebank and
runs along the Forth and Clyde canal for
some distance, and then through the val
leys of the Kelvin. Bonny and Carron to
the Forth river. This project contem-
plates six locks at each end of the canal.
Another route is from Grangemouth on
the Forth to Loeb Lomond. up that lake
and across a narrow neck of land to
Loeb Long. and through the latter to the
Firth of clyde. This latter scheme will
cost S@Wt,CU.
An effort is being made TO arrive at an
international candlepower for the meas
urement of the intensity of illumination
AT the present time each government has
its own standard. England had originally
a sperm candle flame, and more recently
has adopted standard flame of pentane
gas. France has a standard colza- oil
fame called the Carcel Germany has a
81 ndard amylacetate fame. called the
Hefner. This country has depended upon
the pentanc fame in its gas industry, bu,
has relied upon lncandeScent lamp Sec
ondary standards III its electric lighting
the incandescent lamps being standard
ized TO the assumed value of the English
candle
The electric lighting industry is repre-
sented in the United States by J.2i com
panies and municipal plants. and in Can.
ada, Mexico and the West Indies by 476
