WATER ROUTE TO JEFFERSON.

"
On the subject OF inter-navigation The
caucasian has almost lost its vocabulary.
| he Importance of improving every nav
1gabie stream Is SO patent that little If
any urging should be necessary to start
practical action. 1t is true there are
railroads traverslng the interior in many
sections, but the neglect of navigable
streams has operated to the detriment of
many interests.
It is gratifying to note that Cantain
", ?. Wooten United States armv en-
s1neer corps. has reported favorably on
d practical plan for the Improvement and
hetternent OF navigation between the
Red river and streams and the lakes to
Jefferson. Texas.
he Improvement contemplated when
carried INTO execution will be- beneficial
to Shreveport indirectly if not directly.
and 1t Is to be hoped the work will be
fastened to an early completion.
Unlimited credit is due Congressman
Morris Sheppard for what has been ac
complished.

though there must have existed
the same relation between the dis
