The fear naturally pro- ' voked is that, should each jaunty be ' • given control over the waterway in its ' ' territory, there wtould result such a 1 muddle in management that the en- ' ' tire system would degenerate into lit- ^ tie more than a huge ditch of irregu- * 1 depth, while the appropriations to maintain it being dependent uppn the ^ i freeholders, would become nothing better than fottball for political shysters to bounce about. Because the conclusions of many have ^ that such a relinquishment of atari- control would mean the eliinina- 1 tion of the department there is a grow- ^ ■ non or i lie department tliere is

■ ing restlessness among certain Democratic politicians. The prevalence of '• the eritieism that has been aroused has • | the assurance from Senator ' Edge that it is no part of Republican policy to interfere with the state wa- ■ I terway appropriation, and there is no " ' reason for being apprehensive. Tin • matter is entirely confided to the joint j i appropriation committee, which it i« j ' emphasized, means to deal liberally with the waterways. Senator Sma'ey. I : as chairman of the joint committee, has ' expressed hisapproval of continuii-.-; I I the work, and there is nothing in Die' immediate future that snould occasion j i It is interesting to read, however, j that those Democrats who are so disij trustful of Republican intentions. I j would have experienced the very des- , I troetion -of their hopes that they now dread, had a political change of com- - ! plexion not taken place. Had Chair- " man Honnessy. Democrat, of the joiut i appropriation committee kept his con- | trol. he was openly committed to the " abolition of the continuance of tin waterway. The appropriation last year twenty-five thousand dollars, only a pinch of what actually was needed. favored reducing even thst. Republican rule the waterways will have the protection of a sheltering wing as heretofore, but the manner .'n ■ which the management is conducted is to be altered. « If the economy and efficiency plan through, and probablv it will, the waterways commission which now virtually stands alone, will be connected one of the bureaus of the Depart- ®

ment of Commerce and Navigation- A survey of the proposed amalgamation does not offer any serious objection. The waterways department, the riparian board, the harbor board and UK-trans-state canal board will be managed by a competent directorate instead of plodding along ' independently. It is planned to have a commission of eight specially selected men of "the highest calibre and of wide acquaintance with all water problems, men *ho are interested in yachtinfmnd kindred matters, who will serve the state without pay. They will appoint a direcri-r of the bureau and concentrate their attention to this branch of public ufI f consolidation of separate interests Into one corporation is good for those concerned i nthe business world, why should not a compact control of kindred concerns lie advantageous in the business of the state? The chief desire of the taxpayers is to secure the best at the most economical figure, and If there is any reduction of outlay for as good results, by all means let it be brought about. The big factor is tliat the waiter communication and its upkeep and improvement assured, and that being certain, by what process the end is obtained will not bother many beads, provided any projected changes are toward lessening the expense and , not increasing it. — Atlantic Review.
