INTERNAL WATERWAYS.

No recently called attention t1 Che

Js compared with Europe which,
makes extensive and profitable use Of
her rivers and canal systems
The Internal Waterways Congress
which recently convened at Washing

sivc demonstration of rowling public
interest in an important subject.

That the waterways ought TO be im-

the present Congress should engage IN
