Ki!Cu-jsra',!' ri)TMi" DAKOTA COUNTY HERALD: DAKOTA' CITY. NBBR. I LITTLE USE MADE OF RIVERS Great Waterways of United States Seem to Visiting Europeans to Be Neg'reeted. A Chinaman who travels In the United States Is certain to remnrk; "What Erand rivers, but how lonely I" By utilizing their rivers 400,000,000 Chinese linvc lnnnngcd to get along without railroads, a feat Incompre hensible In occidental countries. A visitor from continental Europe would say: "Your rivers of the Mississippi valley are unequaled ns a sift of na ture. But where is the commerce? Where the permanently deepened channels, united with correspondlncly deep canals for heavy freight, like those connecting the Ithlne, Danube, lthone, Loire and others?" Our only answer could he that we have as yet fccarcely made n beginning with our splendid Htrenms in the most pro ductive valley on earth, says the St. Louis Globo-Democrat. Yet with re markable energy, promptness and success we constructed the great canal between the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, paying the entire cost our selves and opening It on equal terms to all nations. One rcuson for the backwardness with our majestic rivers nnd tlicir many navigable tributaries is 'hat wo have never taken up the Mibject with duo seriousness nnd de cisive purpose. Wc have been dis mayed when told that the problem in volved hundreds of millions In money. But since 10M, Including the next fiscal year, congress has appropriated $47,000,003,000. 'Ilio word "Impos sible" should not be reserved for use against a profitable Investment like Improved waterways. Necessity knows no law. A vast emergency presented Itself that de manded the expenditure of the $47, 000,000,000 In five years. Ono of the first problems In the national emer gency was transportation, lite rail roads, of course, were pushed so hard that the government felt compelled to J take them in hand. Adequate water ways would 'have been of enormous advantage, but tho big rivers heard, lit tle sound eavo their own daBhlng. "Wo can't nfford to Improve the rivers," was tho old view. The ob vious truth Is that we can't nfford not to improve them. CHART OF GREAT USEFULNESS Only Memory of Troubles is Left MI1S. HAT LEM WAS JAj BUM) OWN l'OIt MANY YKAKS TANLAC BROUGHT UV.UV.V. "Tanlac has clone me so much good that I am feeling more like myself than for a long, long time," said Mir.

"My trouble was a generally run down condition," continued Mrs. Hat lem, "and I had been suirerlntf for - good ninny years.
