Tiio Waterways Convention ,
ES. PAUI , Sept. 4. The waterways conven
tion was cillod to order at 10.0 J a , m. Prayer
was diiponaod with , Mr. Chiao of Omaha
dtntod the resolutions had born perfected hnd
would be reported as engrossed. Ho thought
they would bo generally nccaptablo. The
convention aaked liberal appropriations.
The great northwest had paid n good ] art of
It , and wanted ft share of its boneliti in the
way of Impr oved waterways , lie protested
that no hostility waa intended pgamst the
railroads. IIo then gave statistics , claim ing
that one county In Nebraska had produced
8,000,000 bushels of curn last year ,
which waa about as much an
the rent of tlm Unltnd States had produced.
His ppeclal plea was for tlm Missouil river.
Ho claimed th.it the people of Nebraska were
entitled to a good portion of tin surplus in
the treasury.
Ignatius Donnelly took tha platform and
said the convention was an organized raid on
the treasury of I he United States , Ho laid
( he farmer had been advised to diversify in
dustries , ho would adviati thorn to raise hell ,
( laughter and npplame ) What wu
want is cheap transportation by our water
ways , and if wo don't gut It there will hi n
revolution in this country. RulroaiU Imvo
takou possession of the government of this
country : thulr emissaries _ were even present
on the lljor ol this convention ,
Senator Kustice , of L uiisvillo , invited by
the convention , proceeded to disabuse the
public uilnd of tin idea that there wan any
antagonism on tbo p t of the south against
the upper river improvements , IIo mid to
focuro what Is wanted there should be no di
vision , and thcro is none. You will find the
southern representative ) with you. The couth
was ready and anxlom to join with the north
in securing from cangreas such appropriation
as maj ba needed to stcuro tha bsttenrent of
tbo water wajs. Wo nm-t stand together from
considerations of self -interest , if from no other.
Applause ] IIo a'fduil that what was naked
y the committee should not be cousi 'erod ' as
chutity , but a just demand which must be
granted , ' Yuur voice must and eh all be
lioaatl , and I pledge myself to voice your
lentimenta in cnngiess. "
HOD. W. II. Hikuh , lira * congressional dis
trict of Mlsscmii , waainvital to address the
( jonvnntion. Ho claimed that tha llouncpln
canal had no placu in the huuso of representa
tives on the river m.d harbor bill , and it was
what kihed that bill In the list congress. His
words proved that ho was arrayed against tbe
cause emphatically , nii'l ' tended to elongate
theeoujlunanced of the Illinois dolegntea.
Ila said there waa a singu nr cnincMetce be
tween the speeches of ex G ivernor Brtiss acd
Congressman Murphy , of Iowa , but porhups
they had no eiguiticance ( Ifcughtai ) . In con
clusion he ( ( ml ho had coiuo lioro ta a citizen
of the Mississippi vallt-y , Lot in the interest cf
any special interest , mid declared his ad-
horenej to the principle that wo had a light to
all wo ask. lit ) never made an appeal in
behalf of i ny scheme , and was nlw.iys for tbo
general good in the matter of furthering the
interests of commerce. Tin people of tha
Mississippi valley must receive what is duo
tbemby right The people in the east have uo
idea oi the greatness ol the west. The west
has been feuding tliu cosv , the Yankee has
been milking her , and ho proposad t' > turn the
cow around and let the west milk her a while.
[ Laughter and applause , ]
OUrlc E CUrr , of Illinois , said : We must
consider the wants of the public rcsardleas of
sectional lines , and not neglect Illinois , the
keystone state , ho said. Ho waj orry for the
sptiic of tbo speech of Mr. Hatch , as not
bread enough. Wo must unite In Improving
the greal lakes KB well r.i the mighty Missis
sippi. Any other idea is narrow and will not
bu sustained

mouth ; tlitt tluro ihull bo n continuous chau-
uel of bt least tix feet of water In depth
throughout its entire course , acd that nidicUnt
protection be furnished to prevent dimago
and destruction from ice , A liberal policy ia
demanded in the allotment of appropriations

wcat may receive their just share.

After the a-ioptloo of the roiolntlons John

west of the Alleghenies possesses more thiia h l
of the shipping country , and contriburcs more
than three-fourths uf the money expanded by
the federal government for public improve-
m nt , it Is rank Injustice to this great eectlon

tha demand of producer ) and conmniers , ve
dematid from this tuna forward that proportion

received by oinpioyes of the land office. Act
ing Secretary Jenks hai tranrrnltted the cir
culars to tha civil aorvico commission for such
action as they may deem proper. It It main
tained by ollicora of the interior department
that the Pennsylvania state committee have
by directing letters specific illy to employes to

buildings , committed a breach of tcction

followc
Section 12 That no person shall , in any

official duties of any officers or employes of
tbo United States mentioned in this act , or

political purpose whatever.
Stctlon 11 of the same act expresjly forbid *
such solicitations by any persona in the ser
