His finrt challenge la that the Cadillac runabout can .defeat any runabout : In the city, selling for $IS0 or leas. In a race of five mllea or more. Hla eecond chal lenge Is that the -horae-power Cadillac runabout can defeat the 20-horse-power touring car in a 20-mlle race. If the races In tha eaat lire followed It will be eeen that most of them are- over courses from t to 10 miles long, far. -naturally, the staying qualities of a car era given a better testn a five or ten-mile race than tn one for two or three.

To some extent the Incorporators are depending upon the government Im provement of the Ohio between Pitts burg and Beaver. Conversation of the of the leaders with Captaln-W- L. fil bert. United States engineer at Pitts burg, shows that it Is practicable for tha government to lncreaee the depth of the Ohlojrtver without excessive cost to enable boats of if feet draught to ply between the southern terminus of the canal and the wharves of the Pitts burg district Said Captain Blbert when told of the toheme of the ship canal promotera: . "We are now raising the dams In op eration on the Ofilo to make poaslble nine-foot stage. It Is expected that all ..the. dame' toMbV Beaver river , will be 'completed and In operation by the end of next year. The government could. If It so desired, deepen the channel at the lock sills sufficient to make aV-12-foot stage from Pittsburg to Beavsr. That would require dredging . at the sills and upper ends of the pools. - The cost would not be excessive and It could iliinu Ul WW" tllllg llll UIIIU- Lake Erie eanal could be completed,1 said John E.

We wUl.be. s hi o to master tnie rise wn- 17 locks, while In the wetland canai js locks are necessary. "We have waiting along our banks 18,000.000 tons of freight whlob we can practically depend upon- and thia will be about doubled In a few years aa new industries come tip, - There is also a large tonnags that wtimevM pass to orfrom Pittsburg. Ths construction of this canal Is of great national import ance. With the agitation now on for a boating stage the length of the Ohio, with -the probability that improvements wUl be made along the Mississippi and with tha construction of the Panama canal a, system of. waterways -will be provided! mat-wUUopen hitherto Jinde veloped territory to an extent, that is beyond the comprehension or ins numan mind." The incorporators refuse to - state what the route of the canal -may be, but It is believed that the -route will be nearly Identical with that of the canal projected years ago. This lay along the Beaver river, paat New Brighton, Beaver Falls, Rochester and Beaver to the Ma honing river, past Youngstown and NUes. and mot far from Newcastle. From NUes the route lay In ao almost straight north and south line through tha lowest dtvids - between the Ohio river and Lake Erie, The proposed ter minus was at or -near Ashtabula harbor. although a provisional line Was run to narbof Laughltrr Steal companylater-obta1ned for-the proposed lake tarmlnua of the Pittsburg,- NUes Western It was estimated that the route would be slightly lesa than tl mllea from NUes to Ashtabula, Including (1 miles of summit level requiring no locks. The recommended depth was It feet. 107 feet wide at the bottom, and 160 feet wide at the surface, with locks 140 feet long and' 41 feet wide. The aummlt level would be Stl feet 'above the mean level of Lake Erie and 197 feet aboVe the Ohio river at Pittsburg. Ths length, of the canal was 121 mllea from Pa vis Island dam. . . .. The United States government, made surveys and engineering examinations 10 years ago of a routs for a canal be. tween tha Ohio river at Beaver and Lake Erie, and a canal waa built .and operated many years. . But it waa not until lit! that the scheme to construct a ship canal 'over the game route waa flrat advocated. -r- t-t- Andrew Camegle, then vitally Inter eated by reason of hla large steel pos sessions, addressed the legislature 1 in support of a bill providing for a com mission to make surveys for a ship ca nal-bat wean-. LakeErie and the Ohio liver. ' Mr. Camegle had conflicts with the railroads on the question of ratee and the tonnage between Pittsburg and Lake Erie was heavy because of the large proportion of iron ore brought to the blast- furnaces from the" Lake Bu parlor mines.' In that address Mr. Car- '-lt 4--iatter for deep regret- that me cbiwi vntcn lurmvriy connected Lake Erie with the Ohio river at Bea ver has been abandoned and Its bed uaed for a railroad. Of -all the works that could moat advance the Interest of the western portion of our state I know of nothing Involving little expenditure which, would be ao beneficial as a ship canal between the lakes and) the Ohio river. Ships could then .unload then ores from the Lake Superior region st the furnaces In Pittsburg ana be loaded In return with, coal and manufactured articles for the lake ports snd the great northwestwhtch - Is - so rapidly' being filled with sn enterprising population. Inatead of ths day of canala and water transportation being over, It Is probable that's return of theae early methods of transportation will soon take place, snd thst the river system, which brings Pennsylvania Into connection "with the great Mississippi basin, and" a canal from Besver, which would bring bet into connection with ths lakes, ara to receive mors and mora attention. - 1SC5.
