A GREAT ENTERPRISE
The Moscow Canal ls to Be Taken in
Hand at Last-Will Be OF Great
Ranefif RI MuScatine

Benefit to Muscatine
Muscatine, April 5.-For forty ana
more years they have been talking or
the Moscow canal at Muscatine. Inc
project never looked as promising as
it does at the present time. Since the
generation of power and it's convey
ance in the form of electric current
has become possible, the Moscow canal
has become very practical proposi-
ton. 1t is proposed to dig or build a
canal some five or six miles in length,
a big dam which will create a grand
reservoir on the Cedar river, etc. The
canal will lead to the power plant,
where a fall Of ninety feet will be OBJ
tanned and some $4,000 horse power
will be generated. The plan has been
gone over again and again by the best
engineers and has been found entirely
feasible in every respect The total
cost is estimated at only $2,4O0,0OO,
but will probably go beyond these
figures. Of course, it will be a fine
thing for Muscatine, and what is
fne thing for Muscatine is a fine
thing for the state of Iowa.
