improvements OfOur Rivers.

At the instance of our Delegate in
Congress we this week printed and sent
out for circulation.among, and for sigma
lures of the people, petition asking
Congress first to appropriate 100000
for the canal and locks at the Cascades.
Second, for an appropriation of $50, 900
for the improvement of the navigation
Of Snake river below Lewiston, and
third for an appropriation of $4,000,
for removing distractions to navigation
of the Clearwater river from the mouth
TO the mouth of the middle fork of
said stream. This petition is for the
purpose of supporting the three bills
now before Congress for these respect
i've measures. They are measures
which commend themselves to the
earnest good Judgement every man
who knows the situation and condition
of these rivers and the country tributary
thereto, and more especially to the in
terest Of every man who has taken up
permanent home in the vicinity of these
rivers, and we shall therefore expect
that this petition will be extensively
signed without any delay and returned
to THE TELLER Office to be forwarded
to our delegate in Congress for use iii
aiding the passage of these wholesome
measures. With our people there is no
need of any specious argument or plead
ing in favor of signing this petition. The
mere mention of the proposition is all
sufficient, to induce signatures from all
thinking men. We trust similar petit
ticns will be'circuiated in Washington
Territory or that portion of Eastern
Washington where the people arc vital
ly interested in the success of these
measures. What is to be done, should
be done quickly SO as to have the Pc
titions reach Washington in time for
use in securing proper action upon the
bills now before Congress. The inter
vening distance between us and the
halls of Congress is such that we have
to be early with our representations
from the people, else the opportune
time for our request to be heard will
have passed. Be sure and sign and send
along these petitions without delay, and
they will be forthwith sent to Washing
ton. We also print the said petition in
THE TELLER of this week, so that
should there be locality where our
printed copies do not reach, the petition
can be cut on. of tn, paper and pasted
upon foolscap paper and used for
heading to signatures in such localities.

TO the Honorable the Senate and
House Of Representatives IN Congress
assembled:
Your petitioners, citizens and resi-
dents of the Northern counties Of Ida
ho would respectfully represent, That
we occupy tract of county tributary,
for many miles on each side, to the
Clearwater and Snake rivers. That
our own, and that portion Of Washing
ton Territory bordering for many miles
on each side of the Snake below Lewis
ton, constitute millions Of acres Of the
best wheat lands known on the CONT
nent, as has been fully demonstrated by
the products raised. 95
That the said Clearwater and Snake
rivers constitute natural highway to
the larger river, the Columbia, and
with said river to the sea board, for
all the products of this section of coun-
try.
That with moderate expenditure in
the removal of some impedimcnts to
steamboat navigation now in the said
Snake river below Lewiston, said river
may become navigable for steamers
carrying 800 tons, az all seasons Of the
year, save when obstructed by ice.
That the said Clearwater river with
a moderate outlay of expense, may be
made navisable for steamboats, Of $50
tons capacity for full six month Of each
year, and for floating barees Of $50 or
300 tons capacity, laden with our pro-
ducts down the stream during the re-
naming six months of the year save
when impeded by ice.
That immigration is fast coming to
this section OF country and absorbing
it's lands.
That our increasing commerce de-
mands that these improvements Of these
rivers be early made.
Therefore we your petitioners hum
BILE pray. First. that at your present
session, an appropriation Of $4,000
may be made for the construction of
canal and locks at the Cascades of the
Columbia river.

Third, that $4,000 may be appro-
prlated for removing distractions to
