greatly from the heat in the sum-

Added to these discomforts was
the probability of running across

GOVERNMENT CONTROL
OF NAWGAbLE RIVERS
Question Likely to Cause Dis.
cuSSiOn at National Confer
ence in December.

One of the subjects to cause much dis
cussion at the tenth convention Of the
National Rivers and Harbors Congress
in Washington in December is a decision
of the Supreme Court dealing with the
authority of the federal government over
navigable streams.
The decision, which was handed down
by Justice Lurton in the case of the
United States versus the Chandler Dun
bar Water Power Company, is consid-
cred to be of great Importance by men
interested in rivers and harbors 1t is
said to uphold the views of the most
advanced advocates of federal control
of water power.
Quote From Decision.
The cruX of the decision, as pointed
out by members of the National Rivers
and Harbors Congress, rests in the fol-
lowing words of Justice Lurton's de-
cision:
1.-The title of the owner of fast land
upon the shore of a navigable river to
the bed of the river is at best a quail
fled one 1t is a title which inheres in
the ownership Of the shore. and. unless
reserved or excluded by implication,
passes with it as shadow follows a
substance. although capable of distinct
ownership. 1t is subordinate to the
public right Of navigation, and, how
against the acts of third parties, is Of no
avail against the exercise of the great
and absolute power of Congress over the
Improvement of navigable rivers. That
power of use and control comes from
the power to regulate commerce between
the states and with foreign nations. 1t
includes navigation, and subjects every
navigable river to the control of Con-
gress. All means having some positive
relation to the end in view which are
of the Constitution are admissible.
Subject to Public Use.
IF on the Judgment of Congress the
use of the bottom of the river is proper
for the purpose Of placing therein
structures in aid of navigation, it is not
thereby taking private property for a
public use, for the owners title was in
its very nature subject to that use in
the interest of public navigation. If it's
Judgment be that structures placed IN
the river and upon such submerged land
are an obstruction or hindrance to the
proper use of the river for purposes of
navigation. it may require their removal
and forbid the use OF the bed or the
river by the owner in any way which In
it's Judgment is injurious to the dominant
right of navigation. SO, also. 1t may
permit the construction and maintenance
Of tunnels under or bridges over the
river, and may require the removal OF
every such structure placed there win
or without it's license, the element OF
contract out of the way. which 1t shall
require to be removed or altered as an
obstruction to Navigation.

Mixed Emotions. Il

NEW YORK. September 6.-With the

was coming over within few weeks, and
was overjoyed, and said So w hen she
lectures, as she will. i'm this country she
will change the feeling here about Eng

Why. she spoke openly in London only

Nora Blatch de Forest, and when l

told me they would be too delighted
to have Mrs. Pankhurst come to Ameri-
