that in any way affect your proposition now be-
fore Congress TO make the Lake Borgne outlet9"
Not in the least" said the Captain, " for men
who will vote for the s6,00O,00O appropriation for
levees which will raise the water in the river,
causing overiows, can show no good reason fol
voting against the little appropriation Of $4,000
TO make the Lake Borgne outlet, which viii lower
the Hood line Of the river and will deepen Ia
channel"
What would be the costs and results?"
Well In the first place the cost OF the levees ao-
cording TO the highest engineering authority,
would bo s00,oo00O0, for tho engineers say the
grade Of these levees on tho banks of the Missis-
sippi River would have TO DO raised nom six to
seven feet higher from Cairo 10 New Orleans"
Would this raising Of the river also raise and
back the water up the tributariesY"
"Yes, of course II would and they would have
TO be loveed also, and these evees would cost moi
cent less than sl0O,OO0.OO0 more"
"Well, suppose this was all done, would 1t pro.
tect the Valley from overflow and deepen tho
