WATER-POWER IMPROVEMENTS.
The following from the Minneapolis
Evening journal briefly sketches J. j.
Hills contemplated improvement of the
East Side water power in Minneapolis.
People who are interested in Great Falls
Will be glad to know that this is the man
who owns the most of Montana's great
WatespoWer at the falls of the Missouri,
which far exceeds in quantity that Of tie
Fallsof St. Anthony at Minneapolis:
The Journal is happy to announce, up
on the strength of we'll enough au-
thenticated to be authoritative that J. j.
Hill has received a report from the we'll
known expert j. 7. flaming, who has
been in his service for a considerable
time ~embodying plans and details for a
most comprehensive Improvement Of his
great water-power-the east channel OF
the Mississippi. These plans embrace the
erection Of Il frontage of buildings for
manufacturing purposes Of every descrip-
ton OF nearly a mile in length, running
from Central avenue almost to the uni
yersity grounds, and such an improve
ment Of the waterpoWer IS will easily
turn the wheels Of the whole mass of ma
chinery for manufacturing purposes. Dir.
Hill says his " plans are not sufficient
" matured for him TO determine the eX-
act time of beginning OF this great i'm
provement, but the Journal has every rea-
son to believe from what it knows Of the
man, and the entire practicability of his
scheme, that sno great delay viii occur.
The number Of persons that can be prof
itably employed in the buildings tnat are
finally contemplated Will reach to 10000.
This will give some light idea of the i'm
portance to Minneapolis Of this greatim-
pTovement. This new scheme will dwarf
all Of Dir. Hills former investments iii
Minneapolis, in as much az his railroad in
vestments have dwarfed those Of any 9th
er company. The carrying cut Of tie
plans will involve an expenditure OF an
amount OF money that is almost impossi-
bic TO estimate, but from is known of the
financial ability Of Mr. Hill, the cost will
not for Il mOmentinterfere with the work.
