LOCATING AcANAl.

Inc following was adopted by tho
chamber OF Commerce of the CITY Of
81. Paul the I'd of December, 1891:
WHEREAS, The matter of BUILDING a
canal to connect Lake Superior with
the Mississippi river at the Twin Cities
mas been agitated from time to time for
several years. Competent. engineers
assert that the practically OF such q
work depends solely upon whether the
ground admits of sufficient storage of
water at the point of highest elevation.
No survey with respect to this has ever
been made and no one can now say
whether such work would be practic.
able or not. Considering the immense
benefit such canal would confer upon
the public in case it should prove FEAST
BILE; considering, too, the enterprise
which other countries exhibit as to
canals for example the great ship
canal, twenty-six feet in depth being
built to the city of Manchester, Eng
land, and the ship canal which Germa-
ny is building to unite the North and
Baltic seas-it does not seem unreason-
able that the United States should at
least cause a survey to be made to
ascertain whether or not the proposed
canal would be practicable. Therefore
RESOLVED, That the United States
Senators from Minnesota and the Rep
resentative in Congress from this dis
trict are hereby requested to use their
efforts to obtain an appropriation of
$40, 600. or SO much as may be neces-
sary, for a thorough examination and
survey to determine what, if any, prac-
ticable line exists for a canal with ca
pacity for barges and vessels that could
navigate the lakes, to unite Lake SUI
perior with thei Mississippi river at the
Twin Cities.
RESOLVED, That the Secretary COM
municate a copy of the foregoing to the
different commercial organizations in
this State and that such organizations
are hereby requested to promote it's OBJ
ject.
This simply calls for survey to de-
termine the feasibility of "a canal. If
found practicable, it would prove a
national work, uniting as it would the
two greatest navigable routes in our
country. The probable route that will
be surveyed would include Saltwater,
Mimi, Shell Lake and other towns in
Wisconsin. #@
