"WHAT COMPREHENSIVE 8Y3TEM
OF WATERWAYS IMPROVE
MENT MEANS TO FARMERS.
FIGURES TO SUPPORT FACTS
On Shipments of Grain Alont the Di
rect Rturn Would Mean $100,000,
OOO, and Proportionately All Other
Products Would Be Affected.
In a former article we rave facts and
dgares to prove that. If the compre
hensive plan of waterway Improve
ment advocated by the National Riv
era and Harbors congress were car
Tied out, the direct return to the farm
ers of the country, on the single ltm
of grain, would certnlnly be 10O,000.
COO a year and probably would be
more than twice that sum.
Iiut grain Is not the only Item on
, which the farmers would receive a
benefit The fact Is that for the farm
ers Rnd everybody else, for that mat
ter the cost of transportation Influ
ences practically everything he buys,
sells, eats, wears or uses In any way
whatever, except water, air and sun
shine. The average man Is Inclined to
laugh when told that ho pays out more
for transportation than Ho does for
taxes or because of the tariff but his
laughter does not alter the fact In the
least
There are three principal methods
of transportation,. the wagonway, the
railway and the waterway, ami there
is so great a difference In the cost of
transportation by these different meth
ods that It Is worth while to study the
matter a little. The experts of the
good roads bureau estimate the cost
of hauling a ton of freight one mile
by horse and wagon on the average
road In the United States at 25 cants.
The cost on a thoroughly good, smooth
road might be reduced to 10 cents,
i Poor's Manual gives 7.82 mills per ton
mile as the average price received by
,the railways In 1807, while the official
.records kept at the Boo show that the
average rate on the freight carried
I Into and out of Lake Superior In the
name year was only .8 of one mill.
Facts in a Nutshell.
Tou can bettor understand what
these figures mean If they are stated
in another way. They mean that If
you have a dollnr to spend In shipping
a ton of freight you can send It 4
miles on an average road, 10 miles on
it Orst-class road, 127 miles on a rail
'road, and 1.2D0 miles on a lake vessel.
It Is very easy to see that good
roads are a lot better than poor roods
but that transportation by horse and
wagon Is too costly at the best to be
used except for small hinds and short
distances. So far as Interstate traffic
is concerned the wagon road must be
left entirely out of consideration. It
Is Just as easy to see what a great
i benefit would result from the building
of a railway Into a region where there
was none before, and that a still
greater benefit would result from so
. Improving a river that It Is mads
) dependably navigable when It was not
so before.
Waterways Increase prosperity In
three principal ways, viz: direct sav
ing, Indirect saving, and by what may
be called a creative effect. The direct
saving Is that which occurs on goods
actually carried by water, and some
facts which Indicate how great this di
rect savin? Is, will also make mors
plain the vast difference between the
cost of transportation by rail and by
water.
1 Through the Soo canal at the out
let of Lake Superior there were car
ried In 1907, 68.217.214 tons of freight
This was carried nn average distance
of 828.3 miles at an average cost of
.8 of one mill per ton-mile. If this
had been shipped by rail at the aver
age railway rate for that year (7.83
mills), Its transportation would have
cost I338.C33.3C4 more than was paid
for its carriage by water.
The total freight carried on all
lakes that year was, In round num
bers, 100.000,000 tons. This vast ton
riage was carried tor $550,000,000 less
than it would have cost to send It by
rail, and the improvements, which pro
duce a saving large enough to pay oft
the national dobt In less than two
years, cost only 185,000,000.
j Jroof of Good Results.
Wouldn't you call that a pretty fair
dividend on the Investment! And dont
you think It would pay to Improve all
our waterways as fast and as far as
we can?
"But," says some one, "what reason
Is there to suppose that improved riv
ers would give anything like as good
results as have been obtained on the
lakes?" That Is a proper question and
la entitled to an answer.
The only waterway In this country1
which has been improved as a whole
Is composed of the four lakes above
Niagara Falls, but there are many lm
proved rivers in Europe. From a care
ful study of the results obtained on
these rivers tho army engineers estl
mate that when the improvement of
the Ohio river Is finished, freight can
be carried thereon for ono-half mill
per ton-mil. That means that the
dollar which will carry a ton 1274
miles by rail and 1.2.10 miles by lake,
will carry It J.030 miles by river.
Cost of transportation will vary on
different rivers with depth, width.
swiftness of current, etc., but the es
timated cost on a completely Improved
Ohio river can bo Increased by 60 per
cent before It will equal tho average
cost on the lakes in 1 307, and there
.Is Hill a margin of nearly 40 p(,r
cent, before you reach a rate one half
'as high as that by rat!. It will pay to
Improve our rivers.

Not Satisfactory.
Newspapers all over Nebraska,
both Democratic and Republican, are
decrying the state primary law and
are advocating a change back to the
convention plan of nominating can
didates for state office. There are
many advantages in the convention.
If honorable men are sent as dele
gates, they will make It their busi
ness to ascertain who are the best
men In the race, while under the
present primary plan, too many peo
ple do not post themselves and sim
ply "guess" at the candidates for a
state office and they are Just as
lible to guess the poorest man as the
best one. When it comes to selecting
candidates, we believe it is far better
to send honorable delegates, men of
Intelligence to weigh the claims of
the various candidates and to select
the best men, than to trust to luck.
and allow the ignorant voter the
one who does not post himself to
nominate our state ticket by "guess."
Murdered in South Omaha.
The news was received in this

Johnson immediately fled toward Al
