DIRECT AND INDIRECT SAVING Conservative Estimate U That In Single Year It Would Be More Than Enough to.Diacharge the Entire Na tional Debt. It was stated In a prevloua article that waterways produce both direct nd indirect anvlngs In the cost of trsnsnorlntlon and also exert what i, ii,i o .rooiiva fr.. a' n3 lOll"l U' nniv ' il" o "t was shown that the 100.ooo.noo tons of freight bandied on the great Inkei in 1907 were carried for $r."iO,noo,iVii legs than It would have cost, by rail. If the opinion of the United States army engineers la correct and this oplniou Is baaeJ upon results actually achieved on the rlvera of Europe w have a number of rlvera on which, when properly Improved, freight can be carried for leus than on the lakes ..... f. wHpk II pn carried for much less than by rail. If, therefore, tbe plan advocated by the National Rivera and Harbor congress should be carried oui which iii.ludos the Improvement of at! our riven to such extern as shall U found ,. a, :--. ' - -ift-r ' tmrt ennastrint Ion- wnnlrt prnhatvTy ) tnerensed tonfrit?7 but If It were only doubied the direct, pRving In a single year would bo more than enough to pay off the national dbt. Rut thla Ih not the nd of th" bon. fits which the general Improvement of our waterways would bring, It Is only the beginning. TWldp the clli-ncl nv ing there Is an Indirect, snvlng which results from the effect of waterways on railway freight rales, for rates are always lower on railroads which meet water competition than mi those which do not. The amount of Oils sav ing Is not everywhere the mime, owing to difference In conditions, but we can get a good general bleu of It from a study of some sample instance, Frelaht Rata Affected. Freight rates from New York to Rait. Lakfl or Spokane are nun li high er than to San Francisco or Seattle, nit hough the distance is much less, be- cause goods tan be carried to the Pa cific coast by water, around Cupe Horn, while there is no waterway of 1.1... 1 U.. t.ln...l -.1.1., nuy ftllju IU tun lliuiliu Clti'.n eniuiHl. It Is not the ocean alone that affects railroad rates. Compare the rates on first class merchandise lo river towns and inland towns situated about "fa) miles from St. Louis. Towns on th upper Mississippi get a rate of 33 cents a hundred, Inland towns pay 6.1 cents; towns on the Ohio pay 41 cents Inland towns i the same legion pay 87. A still more Btr'Cng instance, and one showing tho direct result, of wa- j terway Improvement, la to be found : on the Columbia river. Hefore the locks at tho cascades weiH built ; freight rob's on nails, and that class of goods, from Portland to The Dalies were ?(i.4() per ton. As soon as th locks were finished and the steam boats could get through, the railroad , fate dropped to two dollars per ton less than one-third what it was before. That the difference was due to the river Improvement is shown by tin fact that, rates were not reduced 1m yond tho point to which the steam boats could run. For instance, the rate on salt in car load lots was $1.50 per ton to Tho Dalles, and $10,20 per ! ton to i:matllla -$t.f.O per ton for tb fc8 miles with water competition and $8.70 per ton for tho next 1 00 mllfs without. These ratos have since been i reduced ns the improvement has pro- ; reeded, and when tho work is llnlshed ! and boats can run far up the Colum- j bia river and to Lowlston nud other j point in Idaho on Its principal tribu tary, the Snake river, tho penpt In all that region will benefit not, only by tho dlroct saving on goods carried by water, but also by the indirect sav ing through the reduced rain on goods can-led by rail. Kraelly similar re sults would follow the rndicnl im provement of rlvera all over the United States. Indirect Saving Largo, There Is, however, no possible way of finding out Just how much this In direct saving would be. Rates on sonm freight would bo reduced greatly, on some freight slightly, on some, per haps, not at all. Hut w- can get. some j Idea of th amount of freight w hich might h Influeiiced. In tlv fiscal year ending Juno .20, l!n7. tho total j amount or freight handled by the 'railroads of the Unl'od Smton wa i , 7,R :, !(- r,-0 ,.. u, r (l. U,.J hauled a short distance, sonm a long distance, and some, was handled by ! ttwrn ,nnn 0,, r(m1- '"t " ' "T'al to 236,601,390,10 tons hauled one mile. If the comprehensive Improve ment of our waterways should mak an average reduction of one mill per ton mile the difference in the rates on salt given above In 7o times as much, or seven cents per tin mile K. would make a saving of over $236,t!0u,-' not) on the valuo of business handled In tin fiscal year. At flrf, glance. It looks as If that would mean disaster to the railways, but that Is the exact opposite of the truth. Strange' as It may seeni, the surest and speediest way to enlarijij tbe business and Increase the profits of the railways of the United Ktates Is to Improve the waterway at u United Slates.
