AN FFFECrIyE BLOCK.

Nothing could have more effectively put damper upon the St. Lawrence waterway proposition at the present time than the announcement from Canada that it was not ready to do anything at this time. Being a joint proposition fl is not likely to get very far until Can ada is ready.
 The idea hasn't clear sailing in this country by any means but that oppo- sition is as nothing compared to the cold water Canada has thrown upon it. Can ada isn't impressed as much as some sections of this country are by the prop osition- It ism being urged by the same needs. The middle west is confi- dent that such an outlet to the sea will solve all it's transportation problems. but in Canada the stream of ocean traffic up and down the St. Lawrence doesn't impress it in connection with the project so much as the power development pos abilities, and still Canada appears te have plenty of such facilities at the present time, and is able to get more without entering into treaty relations upon the subject with another country.
 The power development under the plar has not failed to make its appeal or this side of the line. There Is no ques tion but what use can be made of al that can be obtained in this country, bu while Canada shows the disposition t give attention to its own position with out displaying any great concern ove the requirements of this country and in dicates that it figures the estimated cos is perhaps only third or less of wha the waterway would cost, the prospect of an early opening of such route t the sea for ocean going ships can hard ly be considered favorable. Possibl' Canada is being guided by the polio. that haste makes waste.
