ONE OF the projects for which an

and harbor bill is the construction OF
lock in the Mississippi between
Minneapolis and st. Paul. By the
construction OF lock and dam in
the river midway between the two
cities named. the Mississippi will he
navigable clear through to Minneap-
oils. This is a matter that has long
been agitated by the latter city. but
without any degree Of success until
the present time. When the river
and harbor bill passed the Fi.ty-iirst
congress, the entire Mississippi river
was put under the continuing con-
tract system. There remains quite
u large unexpended balance set apart
for the upper reach of the river, and
II is this appropriation that will be
diverted to the construction of the
lock and dam.
