ROASTING KNOCKERS TO ' A Glcmlulc, It Seems, Hns n Knockor And He Has Got Itusy Lately Too. (From tho Glendale News.) Wo repeat again, what wo said a short tlmo ago, "God hates a knock er" and so does overyono else. Wo hato to admit the fact, but It Is plain ly evident that Glendale is blessed (?) with one of this class nt least. Dur ing the past few weeks ,whllo all loyal citizens have folt that If our bank or any other business enter prise in Iho city word In need of help they would do all In their power to aid and sustain it, this aforesaid In dividual, or individuals (wo know not which) has started all klndB of rumors afloat, Just for somo personal dlsllko or potty spltofulnoss. Not satisfied with knocking at homo, re ports wero Bont broadcast to tho RoBoburg papers and to othor neigh boring exchange (tolling that our bank had gono under and reporting a run on this Institution, all rankly false, arid, If other proof woro neces sary that thoro haB been a knocker abroad, personal corrospondenco which wo havo received from tho western part of tho stato, would Bot tle that fact. It seems that tho bank has not been alono In this envious individual's hatred, for a personal at tack has also been made. This at tack Jibes so nicely with a cortaln falsehood which circulated In our own midst a fow days slnco, and coming at It doos from so far away, makes it seem posltlvo that tho party who wroto us has heard from somo Glondnle cttlzun tho yarn ho gives us. It seems too bad that Glendale has to put up with ovon ono of .this class, Whllo nil our citizens aro trying In ovory way posslblo to build up nnd push tho city and hor Institutions, this miserable, smnll mlndod IndU vldual Is gloofully sending out falso statements nnd thus trying to undoj whnt others work hard to ucconi- pllsh.

At any rate, wo aro told that thero Is ovory probability of tho canal bfr- ing construoted. This canal would C03t 20,000,000 or so, but or so i-tho promoters atato tho advantage to Canuda would ho tromodous and the canal would soon become a pay ing concern. The ourlous thing about this sehemo Is that, like many othor groat schemes, It waB put forward sevoral 8t0I) jt aa much as poealblo. The yoars ago, but never matured. It foil da of Kentucky havo burned more Is at least twenty yoars since this 'immiKratlon from that state than Canadian canal was first mooted. any other one thing.

Since then, of courso. things have altored. Canada has boen becoming of late years, and It may well be that the development of tho country calls for the canal and makes Hi financial success moro aaciirod. A canal across Scotland to conneot the Forth and the Clyde has fre quently been suggested. This would provide a short out for battleships in oase of war, and although the work would cost ovor sovon millions, It is said that tho advantage to the nation should far out-wolgh any con sideration of oost. Last year two old scheme were revived In England, but neither of them was approved by parliament. One was a proposal to construct a new railway round three parts of London- Whole streets of houses I wore to be swept away. The parlla FINISH.mentnry estimate of tho cost was enormous and parliamentary esti mates havo a knack of always being largely exceoded. As a matter of fact, this particular proposal had been approved 'by par liament and the line authorized somo 1G years before, but no one had sulllcient faith In Its paying capacity to construct tho lino, and so tho powers woro allowed to lapse. What with schemes to burrow un der tho channel, to bridge right over It, at ;i cost of 30,000,000, and to make ferries for tho trains, Father Noptuno has been often perturbed and these schemes aro cortaln to bo put forward again periodically. That a quick routo to Franco Is dcslrablo can hardly bo doubted; but tho enormous cost of a tunnol and 'tho smallness of tho rovenucs It womld bring In makes this schomo unlike ly to bo carried out. Taking It all round ,tho Tiber Is probably tho most famous rlvor In tho world. Once it was tho subject of a big- scheme. Garibaldi, who was alarmed at tho dangerous floods to which tho Tiber was subject, wanted to have the 'courso of tlio river di verted. This was, of courso, for tho protection of Rome. Ono of tho most famous English engineers was asked to undcrtnko the work and the Idea was only final ly abandoned when It was proved that tho cost of tho schomo would bo simply onormoils and far onit of pro portion to tho benefits, if any, which would bo derived. Rut tho most daring schomo of all, and ono which Is unquostlonnbly ab surd, was ono to construct c wall round Groat Hrltain. The cost would bo 1:00,000,000. Tho top of tho wall was to havo boon mado Into a nlco wldo road, but what uso tho whole thing would havo boon no ono scorns to know, And yot tho scheme wns revised In all HorlousnoBB within tho last ton yoars. It Is doubtful If 300,000,000 wo'ild bo sulllolont to comploto mora havo small notion of llnanco, and tho - mor a schomo costs tho hotter uioy mini; oi u. awi. .More Munler In Oregon.
