'Weitze! spent pile of the peoples money put
ting dams around the head of the falls, and the
result has been . no good The harbor i'll froat
OF the wharf is filling up. The dam is a hind
rance to boats entering the canal and descending
the falls. When the river is low there is no cur
rent, and boats find it difficult to land at the
evee; when there is a current, there is danger
them being carried against or over the dam, and,
altogether, the dams are nuisance. Now, let
Uncle Sam atone for his wrongs inflicted upon
us, by appropriating sum of money to blow ont
the rock and make the chute wider at the head
Of the falls. 1t is absolutely necessary-in fact.
