Demanding Public Wealth For Public Water Ways. Condensed Iteport of the Rusolndions, Memorials and General Proceed- ofthe Convention, The Waterways Convention, &S, Pavr, Sept, 4,—The waterways conven- tion was oalled to order at 10:0) a, m, Prayer was dispensed with. Mr. Chase of Omaha stated the resolutions had boen perfected nnd would be reported as engrozsed. He thought they would be generally accaptable, The convention asked liberal apyropriations. The great northwest had paid a good yart of it, and wanted a sharo of its benefits in the way of improved waterways. Ho protested that no hostility was intended sgamst the rallroads, Ho then gave statistics, claim 1ng that one county in Nebracka had produced 8,000,000 bushels of corn last yoar, which was about as much as the reat of the Unitad States had produced. His rpecial plea was for the Missouri river, He claimed that the people of Nobraska were enfitled to a good portion of ths surplus in the treasury. Tgnatius Donnelly took the platform and said the couvention was an organized raid on the treasury of the Unitod States, Ho eaid the farmer had been advised to diversify in- dustries, he would advise thom to raise heil, (laughter sod applanss) What we want is cheap transportation by our wator- ways, and if we don’t get it there will bs a rovolution in_this country. Rulroads have taken possession of the government of this country: their emissarios were even prosent on the [l or of this convention. Senator Lustice, of Luiaville, invited by the convention, procseded to disabuse the public wind of thy idea that there was auy antagonism on the part of the south agaiost tho upper river improvements. He enid t socure what is wanted thera should be no di vision, and there is none, You will find the southern represontatives with you.

H. Haich, firs* congressional dis- \rict of Missowi, wasinvitel to addres the convention. Ho claimed that the Heuncpia ‘canal had no placo in the house of repres:nta~ tives on the river atd barbor bill, and it was what kilied thav bill in the Lst congross. His words proved that ho was arrayed against the causo ewphatically, ana tended to elongate the coustenances of the Iilinois dalegates. Ho said thero was a singu ar coinciterce be. tween the rpeeches of ex Governor Bross avd Congressman Murphy, of Iows, but perhaps they had no eigmticance (luughter). In con- clusion he eaid e had como Lero &5 a citizen of tho Mississippi valicy, Lot in the interest of ADY ] sl interest, and declaced his ad- herenes to the pricciple that we had a nght to all wo ask, He never made an appeal in behalf of ny schome, and was always for the general good in the matter of farthering the intorests of commerca. Ths peoplo of tha Miseissippi valley must receive what is due themby right The peoplo in the east have no iden of the groatness of the wess, The west has been feeding the cow, the Yankee has been milking her, and he proposad to tarn tke cow around and let the west wilk hor a while, [Laughter and applause,] Clark ECarr, of Illinois, said: We must consider the wants of the public regardless of sectional lines, and ot ueglect Illincis, the keystone state, he said. He was worry for the spicic of the speech of Mr, Hatoh, as not broad enough, We must unite in improving tho grea’ lakes as wellas the mighty Missis- sippi. Any other idea ia narrow and will not be sustained Congressman Murphy, of Tows, and Gover- nor Broas followed ia support of the Henne. pin canal, after which the convention ad- journed until 2 p, m, ‘Tho convention was called to order again at and the commiites reported resolutions, which were read by Gen, Beadle, of Dakota. The re:olutions recite the necessity of the immediate improvement of the Mississippl and Miesouri rivers, ‘I'hey demard that the natioual government take steps, by euffizient approp.iations, to render the Missippi navig- able from the falls of 8t. Anthony to its mouth; thut thero + hall bo a contisubus chan- nel of ut least six feet of water in depth throughout its entire course, and that rufficient protection be furuished to prevent ds:mago wud destruction from ice, A liberal policy 18 demanded in the wllotment of appropriations for river tnd barbor sppropaatione, 80 that the groat commercial interests of the uorth- west may receive their just share.
