and certain and reliable commu
nication with the Mississippi at
all seasons of the year, and one
that is twenty three miles shorter
than the present one. When this
is done you will reclaim at least
5000, 900 acres of the richest land
in the world from overflow. It's
settlement and cultivation will
speedily follow. 1t is the only
way it can be done, for, with the
exception of the upper Atchafala-
va, there is no continuous stream
through this section, the whole
country being cut up with rivers.
bayouS, and lakes; and no levee
system is possible. | am conf
den: that the Red can never flood
the basin of the Atchafalaya, for
the outlets are too numerous and
large to permit it.
The Mississippi River Commls-
sion has foreseen this danger and
has tried to prevent it by sinking
mats in the Atchatalaya near Its
head, where, | am informed, it Is
100 feet deep and 500 or 600 yards
wide. They may possibly stop
it's deepening, but that does not
lessen the volume of water coming
down its channel.
In the month Of April large
raft of mats came down the At
chafalaya, went into the Grand
river and lodged at the Travers
flats, completely blocking the
channel to navigation. The citi
zens OF Plaquemine were put to
much labor and expense in open
ing a passage for boats through it.
In view of the immense advan
tages, as l have shown, it does
seem to me that all parties should
jOiI in an effort to secure the i'm
mediate completion of the Pla
quemine Locks, the improvement
of the navigation of the contig
uous waters, and the ultimate d.
vorciDg of the Mississippi from
the Atchafalaya. 1t further
seems to me that our Governor
and legislature, our senators and
congressman, and the Progressive
Leagues and Unions could not do
more to develop the great resour
ces of our State than in advOca
ting and securing the accomplish
ment Of these measures, and 9th
ers like them wherever needed, so
as to make our beautiful State the
wealthiest in the Union.
