Fortunately, opportunity has arisen for a reconsideration of this
question in a case arising in the Kankakee swamp lands (State vs.
Tuesbury Land Co., Starke Circuit Court). In the northern end of Indiana,
particularly near the Kankakee River, there was a large amount of swamp
land which was not included in the United States surveys nor sold by the
United States. This was transferred to the State many years ago, and part
of it was reclaimed and sold by the State. In 1891 reclamation was
entered on a large scale by removing the ledge of rock at Momence,
Illinois, which dammed the Kankakee, and caused most of those
swamps. As soon as these lands were drained, adjacent owners set up
claims to the thread of the stream as riparian owners, and a judgment was
obtained in the Starke Circuit Court upholding such claims. If valid this
means that the great expense to which the State has gone in reclaiming
the lands is money thrown away.
As soon as he learned of it, Governor Marshall, who is very practical
in his statesmanship, directed the Attorney-General to take steps to
secure a reversal of the judgment or appeal it, and a new trial has been
secured in the case, which is to be heard shortly. The Kankakee is one of
the most noted of the streams referred to in the Ordinance of 1787 as
“navigable waters,” which are reserved forever as “public highways,”
and there should be no riparian rights in it.
There is certainly good reason to expect a reversal of the Indiana
decision, if not by our Supreme Court, by the Supreme Court of the
United States, for two special reasons: (1) The question of the
navigability of a stream is not primarily a judicial question, but one of
public policy to be determined by the legislative department, and both
Congress and our State Legislature have consistent records for the
navigability of these streams. (2) In this case the navigability is a matter
of solemn compact between the State and the United States; and as the
constitutions of both prohibit any law impairing the obligation of a
contract, it is hardly to be assumed that the courts would undertake to
annul a contract of this character.
Unquestionably White River, like most of the other streams of
Indiana, is not as practically navigable today as it was eighty years ago,
and for two very simple reasons. First, at that time the only timber that
got into the river was trees on the bank that were thrown in by the banks
caving, and these were usually held to the banks by their roots. But after
settlement began every freshet carried quantities of logs, rails and boards
down the river, to form drifts; and these in turn caused the formation of
sand and gravel bars. Second, when the land was cleared and cultivated,
the ground washed much more readily than it did before, and much
greater quantities of sand and gravel were carried into the river to form
bars. These bars constitute the chief obstruction to practical navigation
now.
But by a change in recent conditions of life, these bars furnish the
means for making the river practically navigable. Within the last two
decades there has grown up a special demand for this sand and gravel;
and especially has this demand been increased by the call for good roads;
for washed gravel is one of the best materials available for road-making,
and by these streams, nature has distributed it very widely over the State.
This demand has developed the industry of removing sand and gravel
from the river beds by means of suction pumps, and since 1897, when it
began, this industry has reached proportions that are not generally known
to the public. At Indianapolis there have been six steam pumps working
for several years. They are mounted on scow boats, fifty to sixty-five feet
in length, and twenty to twenty-five feet in width, and by centrifugal
suction power, draw up a mixture of sand, gravel and water through
eight-inch pipes. The pipe entrance is screened to prevent the entrance of
stones over four or five inches in diameter, in order to avoid clogging the
pipe.
These six pumps take out 180,000 cubic yards of sand and gravel in a
year, at a cost of 20 to 25 cents a cubic yard. The material is separated by
passing over screens into two grades of sand and two of gravel, and is
sold at a good profit for street improvement, roofing, asphalt mixture,
concrete, mortar and locomotive sand. Formerly Lake Michigan sand
was shipped here in considerable quantities, but now the demand is fully
met by this local industry. The pumps take out the material for a depth of
about fifteen feet, and in the course of their work they have made about
three miles of Indianapolis river front practically navigable for any kind
of river craft. The boats can easily be run to any point on the river and
used for removing bars at any place. At present the proprietors of the
boats are paying the adjacent landowners for the privilege of taking out
material that rightfully belongs to the State, and of which the public
ought to have the benefit.
The practical situation is this: Indiana has an almost inexhaustible
supply of the best and cheapest road material known, which rightfully
belongs to the State. By using this material it will make actually
navigable hundreds of miles of waterways that are now of no use in
commerce. It is quite common for the unthinking to joke about the
absurdity of making small streams navigable, but there is nothing absurd
about it. Over half a century ago Indiana constructed 453 miles of canal,
at an average cost of $15,000 a mile, which has since been practically
abandoned, not as is generally supposed, because of the competition of
rail roads, but because it was high line canal, and was built up, in part,
instead of being dug out, and without proper precaution for making it
water-tight. The State was not alone in its experience. There are in the
United States over 1,950 miles of abandoned high-line canal, that cost
over $44,000,000. But there are also plenty of low-line canals in
practical and profitable operation.
The mistake that was made in Indiana was in not utilizing the natural
water-courses. At an expense of less than $15,000 per mile, White River
can easily be made navigable for steamboats from Indianapolis to its
mouth, where there is actual steamboat navigation now. The fall in the
river is only 269 feet in the 285 miles, or less than a foot to the mile. The
tested flow of White River at this point is over 1,000 cubic feet per
second. With not to exceed half a dozen dams, and the principal bars
pumped out and put into roads, the thing is accomplished. Not only is
there nothing impracticable about it, but it is as certain to be done, in the
not distant future, as it is that the sun will rise tomorrow morning. The
advantages of water communication with the great coal and building
stone region of the State, as well as direct connection with the Wabash,
Ohio and Mississippi Rivers, is too obvious for discussion. With our
Supreme Court decisions put on a rational and just basis, there is nothing
to prevent a speedy accomplishment of the work.
