The WHOLE NORTHWEST is vitality
interested in the proposed deep water
canal connecting the Great Lakes
with the seaboard. The prosperity
OF the interior region depends upon
cheap transportation for it's surplus
products to the markets OF the world.
We raise in the Red River Valley the
best wheat in the world, but it will
benefit ns little ii the cost OF carrying
this wheat to consumers il SO great
as to eat up the profits of produc-
ton. Cheaper transportation ii,trg.
es to the worlds markets necessarily
means increased prices for our pro-
ducts. 1t has been demOnstra ted
that n water route furnishes the
cheapest mode OF transportation and
is also the best means to bring the
railroads to time in the matter of
rates. The deep water canal scheme
is perfectly feasible. Nature has pro-
vided a water way from the sea to
the very heart OF the country by
means OF the Great Lakes and the
st. Lawrence river. At a compara-
lively small cost this highway Of
commerce may be so improved as to
admit the passage OF large ocean
steamers clear to Duluth. Our wheat
and -four would then be taken to
European ports without re.loading,
.tnd this would mean q great saving
in carrying charges. The building OF
this canal means millions Of dollars
to the farmers in the Red River VAL
ley. Our representatives in congress
should not rest until they have Sc
cured the necessary appropriations
