Presiden: Grants Redemption Plan.

The message Of the President on
national finances was submitted to Con
gress on Saturday last. The Presi.
deut does not deem ii desirable to fix
an earlier day for obligatory resun2.
ton than that fixed by the act Of 1875;
be urges that it will DO beneficial to tie
country to hasten the day when gold
and greepbacks will bear an equal val.
ne. The Presidents suggestions to
promote this end only illustrate the
necessity for course Of preparation for
it which has always been streuuously
commended for, particularly by the Dem
ocfats.

A Nav EntsTprtse-s The Mtssourl TO
be Navigated above the Falls
OOntrnet Let for n Beats.
Montana independently
A reporter yesterday interviewed
Mr.. James A. D%unleyy, a civil en-
gineer, who recently completed q
survey Of the Missouri river from
Gallatin City to the Great Falls,
and the following facts were elected:
Mr.. Dunlevy, who is in the en-
|ploy of a Pittsburg company, of
whom Captain James Reese, for
merly engaged in quartz mining
and milling on Indiana creek, JET
ferson county, is a member and a
leading spirit in the enterprise.
The river was found to have a good
stage of water at all points. Slight
distractions were found at four or
five points, but these do not materi-
ally retard its navigation. In no case
are the rapids worse than those of
Dauphin, and none are so long. AT
no place was there less than three
feet Of water found, and the aver
age was five feet. The portage
around the falls was found to be
nine and three-quarter miles, but a
half mile in distance can be saved
by a bridge not exceeding seventy
five feet in length and twenty
feet in hight. The road can be
constructed at small expense. Mr..
d. having made his report to
the company, he is advised that it
was SO satisfactory that a contract
was at once let for the construction
of a steamer to run above the falls.
1t will have a carrying capacity Of
125 tons, and draw but twelve
inches of water without a cargo. II
will be shipped in sections and put
together above the falls. 1t is ex-
pected that it will reach Benton as
soon as navigation opens. Two
light-draught boats will ply in con-
nection with it from the foot of the
falls to Bismarck. When the line gets
fairly in operation it is the inten-
ton Of the company to keep one
boat at Benton during the winter
and one at Bismarck, that advant-
age may be taken Of the opening of
navigation to move both up and
down freights. The company has
abundant wealth to carry out the
project, and we have no reason to
doubt that they intend to. If car
ried out successfully it will be Of
incalculable benefit to Central and
Southern Montana.
