MISSOURI RIVER IMPROVE
MENT

souri, river channel would be the
greatest stroke toward the settle
ment of railroad rate troubles in the
great middle west.
Engineers reported that the Mis-
souri, river, If improved according
to the plans Of this convention,
would have the carrying capacity of
600 Railroads.&c. times the ca
pacity of all the roads running be-
tween the Mississippi river and the
lower Missouri, and more than 25
times the capacity of all the rail.
roads running from the Mississippi
to the Missouri at all points.
The navigable length of the Mis-
souri, river Is greater than the dis
lance by rail from st. Louis to San
Francisco. 1t has nayiga ble
length three times as great as the
entire length of the Ohio river.
IL congress does not want to
make this appropriation, the boost,
ers of the Middle West may ask for
legislation assessing a tax against
land lying within 100 miles of the
Missouri river. 1t has been figured
out that the entire $4,000, 900 could
be raised by an assessments of so
cents per acre against the land
bordering upon the stream for 100
miles back. This territory pro.
duces crops and live stock annually
worth over $500 ,000,0 900.
