A MEMORIAL

10 Congress for appropriations for certain improve
ments in this Territory.
To the Senate and HOUSE Of Representatives. ot tie
United States:
The Memorial of the Legislative Assembly of Min
ncsota Territory represents to your Honorable Body:
That the gation of the Mississippi River between
the Falls OF St. Anthony and Sauk Rapids, distance
of about hundred miles by the River and also of
the Minnesota River at the Little Rapids, during
the season OF low water obsructed by rocks and
other impedinents, which moderate appropriation
Judlcously expended would easily remove and render
the navi CATION OF the said Rivers at the point and
between the points above named free to steamboats,
and other water crafts during the entire season Of
navigation.
And your memorialists respectfully submit that the
benefits which the Government would derive from
the Improvement above contemplated woul1 far ex-
ceed the amount required to the obstacles to
the free navigation of the said Rivers.
Large amounts of goods and money are annually
transported by the government, at heavy expense,
long and tedious land route to supply the dif.
ierent nations and tribes Of Indians the northern
and western portions of the Territory, and also the
military forces stationed at Fort Ripley and Fort
Ridgey.
These heavy expenses would be materially lessen
ed were these improvements herein prayed for made.
For the past three years a steamboat has been rum
ming that portion Of the rivers above named DUR
ing the times Of hgh water in the river but that for
more than halt the time during the summer season,
such navigation has been obslructed by the impedi-
ments in said rivers.
The rapidly increasing settlements on the Upper
Mississippi River and on the Minnesota River, is a
further reason which we respectfully urge in favor of
the improvement of said Rivers.
Your memorialists therefore ask an appropriation
of $4,000 for the Improvement of the Mississippi
between the points aforesaid, and SIC, 900 for
wing the Little Rapids in the Minnesota River; also,
$50 600 for the improvement of the Mississippi Riv-
er between the mouth of the Minnesota River and
the Falls of ST. Anthony, to be expended under the
direction and authority of the proper department of
the Government.
