INLAND WATERWAY PROGRESS

CFrom Annual Address of President
 Moore of Atlantic Deeper Waterways Association.)
 The impossible inlets, connecting PamIico Sound with the Atlantic Ocean, below Cape Hatteras, have been supplanted by a six-nile cut through solid ground, now known as the Beau fort Cut which enables vessels draw ing 10 feet of water to pass safely below Cape Hatteras. This important link in the Coastal Chain is now open and free of tolls and the extensive use of it proves that commerce follows in the wake of such improvements. It is due to MT. Smalls unceasing en- deavorS that we are able to report for inland waterway from the Beaufort Cut north to Norfolk and the Chesa- peake Bay. The Rivers and liar bors Bill of 1912, notwithstanding it's frfendIiness for the Mississippi Val ley, provides for the taking over and improvement of the Chesapeake and Albemarle Canal, in accordance with the. recomn of the engineers and in harmony with the whole At lantic Coastal project We were un- able in the last Rivers and Harbors Bill to obtain authorization for the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal or route parallel herewith Had recog- milton been given this link of the in land chain. we would have been able Atlantic from below Cape F1atteras up to the port of Trenton, N. J., via Nor folk, Baltimore and Philadelphia, and then would have been prepared to pro- ceed across the State of New Jersey and by way of Long Island Sound into New England. It is regretted that the committee did not see fit to act either on the report of the Agnus Commission of 1907 or the very faVo=- able report of the DTited EzGtee +--- my Engineers upon our own survey. But the desire to keep down the total appropriation and the pressure from the Mississippi Valley were too strong to be overcome. In my Judgment, it is vital to the whole project, that the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal should be authorized immediately. It is the most feasible link of the en- tire chain and is substantially the vii

THE ART OF MODELLING

The Post. torn between its desire 10 keep it's readers and it's purpose to De loyal to the wealth which it adu- iates, continues alternately to praise and insult the citizens who voted against the bond issues
 Our Contemporary ought to get some body to do this work who knows how The arguments which it offers to show that popular government is q failure are not the best that could be presented They are not the best that have been developed, and if they were. they are so frequently con- tradicted by other opinions as to make them worthless to influence anybody.
 The Post editorial opinion is a vzpory wobble, which has the general form of a whirling polygon, although the shape is constantly changing in a wind of words.
 No fact makes a dent in the mass of conflicting ideas.
 Last night, for instance, our con- temporary indirectly expresses the general view that the bonding vote was a failure. although it's attention has been carefully directed to the cir- cumstances that 533 more voters voted against the s1,200,o0o of pro- posed sewer bonds than voted to elect Mayor wilson
 Won't the Post please explain why ir believes the voters who elected Mayor Wilson were wise and virtuous, while 533 more votes who kicked the bonds issues out of court were stupid and thoughtIess?
 The truth of the matter is that in the columns of the Post all voters who vote with the public service cor porations are paragons of virtue and wisdom. and all who do not are poor creatures, rnisled by demagogues and The Farmer.
 We fear the time is not distant when our contemporary will have to deliver different kind of thought to the people of Bridgeport.
 A man who reads the Post isn't foolish He is seeking legitimate amusement. But after time the Posts hatred of the peoples rule may cease to be amusing

ROOSEVELT OVERLooKs HIM.

(New Haven Union.)
 Mir Roosevelt declares that Barnes Penrose and Guggenheirn work hand in hand with the big interests. This is all true. How about MT. Roose- welt himself?
 It was not at the solicitation of Barnes and Penrose and Guggenheim that Edward H. Hartman raised a political corruption fund of S260,000. It was at the solicitation of Theodore Roosevelt.
 It was not Barnes and Penrose and Guggenheim who, according to Dr. Harvey w. Wiley, bucked the pure food law That was done by Theo- dore Roosevelt
 It was not Barnes and Penrose and Guggenhein who failed to bring the machinery of the law into play to send George w.

WILSON'S WORDS OF. WISDOM.
(Middletown Sum-

(MiddletoWn Sum-
 During the course of his tour through Massachusetts Gov. Wilson said some clever things, which at least are interesting. In Springfield he re- marked: "A man cannot serve God on an empty stomach Again he said: My heart goes out to the great strug- gling mass of people in this country who are always anxious about what He denied that he would take part in a program which would seriously dis turb the legitimate business of this country. He spoke of the Republican party as one reduced to it's elements very much confused and very much opposed to one another. Regarding Progressives nor the Republicans pro- pose a remedy of any@ kind, and on the other hand the remedy perpetu- ates the disease. He says trusts have ed by the will and deliberate planning of men. He denies that trusts are inevitable and distinguishes between big business and trusts He is. not afraid of anything on account of it's size; he is only afraid of it's charac- ter. He considers the trusts nothing more than an into1erab1e tax upon prosperity. Some of the trusts he said are great giants staggering under tanks of water. He is for the Hbera- tion of business in the United States, and he wants to see the rank and file of the business men of this country issue a declaration. of independence. He wishes to see the water leak out of the trusts competition-restored and the trusts regulated by government. The trusts, he says, do not give us prosperity; our prosperity feeds them. He asked this question:: Are we going to run this country by it's common energy or by the initiative of a few gentlemen who have used it's uncom- mon energy for their benefit?'' In con c1usion he said: NO party except the Democratic even proposes emancipa- tion from special favors of the tariff and control of the trusts''
