TAKE Spokane virtually a sea-
MI port city. No holder or more
Az momentous proposition and
yet one so entirely practicable was
ever preached to the people of the
city as this, proposed by Professor
w. d. Lyman of Whitman college.
He would make the Columbia river
and its principal tributary, the
Snake, navigable from the ocean to
Kettle Falls and to Lewiston, and
connect Spokane over the few
miles intervening with a network
of electric railways. a work which,
be claims, is not only possible with
few millions of dollars, but one
which can be accomplished in a
very few years with the proper men
and spirit behind it.
Listen to what the professor
says:
REMEDY FOR HIGH RATES.
The waterway system of trans
portation constitutes the only nat
ural competition against excessive
and discriminating freight rates.
You may fight tho railroads with
every ounce of power that you can
command on the question of ter
minal rates; YOU may take the case
into the courts or before the inter
state commerce commission. AS
you we'll know. the laws delay and
the boundless possibilities of eva
sion and miscarriage of justice
wear out the public patience and
the public purse. The railways
seem by some mysterious hocus
pocus to always be able to side
track rulings of commissions and
judgments of courts.
The reason of this failure is
plainly that the remedy is artificial.
But suppose we were to try the
natural remedy-water competi.
ton. That is the only way to solve
the problem of rate discrimination.
INLAND EMPIRE BOTTLED UP.
"As we study the may we shall
see that this vast Inland Empire
embracing about 10000 square
miles, rich in every resource OF
human activity. populated by hall
a million of as brave, resolute and
Intelligent people as ever built a
new American state, that this land
of boundess possibilities is bottled
up by the great wall Of the Cascade
mountains and distractions in its
only natural outlet, the CoIum bia
river.
To oct in and out of this vast re.
eion requires higher freight rates
than prevail in any other part Of
the United States. If the resources
were not well-night unparalleled
this section could not have devel
oped under the heavy handicap Of
such a freight tariff.
WHERE INSTRUCTIONS ARE.
Now follow along the COlumbia
river and see what and where the
Instructions are which now pre-
vent continuous navigation to the
ocean. There is already CANA
and locks at the Cascades. The
only place which entirely prevents
passage of boats is between Cello
and the Big Eddy. AT that point
there is a total descent in eight
and one-half miles of 50 feet. The
government is putting in a cana
to cover that eight and one-hali
miles, and the work is perhaps one
half done. When it is completed
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1910-04-03
RAILROADS CAME TO TIME.

When the canal at the Cascades
was completed, connecting Portland
with The Dalles, the freight rate
on sugar fell from $3.50 a ton to
$3.50. The railroad had to meet
the boat rate. A man at Palouse
told me that he saved $40 on a car
load of sugar from Portland by u.s.
ing the boat to Lewiston.
THE open river will be the great
railroad regulator, and it will beat
your appeals to the interstate COM
merce commission all hollow. 1t

navigation will be practicable in all
ordinary stages of water from
Cello to Priest rapids, on the Col
umbia, and to Lewiston. on the
Snake. Some rapids need some
work to give easy navigation at low
water, but the expense of this is
relatively small and the work is in
active progress.
RIVER PARTLY OPEN.
AT Priest rapids we find a fall
of 50 feet in ten miles. This has
been passed by river steamers, but
it cannot be considered commercial
ly navigable without a canal and
locks. But it is said that the great
irrigation canal of the Hanford
company could be readily utilized
for steamer canal by the inser-
ton of locks at comparatively
small cost.
From Priest rapids to Wenat-
chez the river can be navigated at
any ordinary stage of the water,
but there are two bad rapids-Rock
Island and Cabinet-which must be
improved before easy navigation
can take place. From Wenatchee
to Bridgeport the river is regularly
navigated and furnishes the only
means of public transportation.
Above Bridgeport, past the
mouth of the Spokane river to ket-
tie Falls, there are number of
bad rapids, though they have been
passed by steamers. Yet that
stretch of the river cannot be con
sidered commercially navigable
without some improvements. The
government estimates the cost of
improvements as comparatively
small, perhaps not over $4,000
though larger sums would be need
ed to make that section of the river
navigable at all seasons for large
steamers.
REQUIRES 100000.
kettle falls would require locks
These locks have not been figured
on by engineers. but it is believed
| that the work would be compare
lively inexpensive. Above Kettle
Falls there is a magnificent water
! course of nearly 300 miles through
the Arrow lakes into British Col
umbia.
"Thus to make the CoIumbi;
river navigable for 1000 miles
throwing open to the seaboard al
this vast country, with its infinite
possibilities, will require perhaps
not to exceed 100000 to $4,000,

much less would make it essential

RIVER SCHEDULE

According to TIE announcement
made last evening by Waldo G.
Paine, traffic manager of the Spo-
kane & Inland Empire railroad,
regular steamer navigation will be
opened up the Occur d'Alene river
from Harrison on Monday, April T.
Owing to logs in the river the SER
vice will only be installed as far
as Dudley. The service will be
extended as soon as possible to the
Old Mission, the same as last sea-
son.
The Perry-Lyon Navigation COM
pany's steamer will leave Occur
d'Alene upon the arrival of the 8
a. m. Shoshone electric flyer from
Spokane, touching at Harrison and
all points on Occur d'Alene river
as far as Dudley. Returning, the
following morning, it will reach
Occur d'Alene in time for the HIS
train for this city.
In the afternoon the Perry-Lyon
company's steamer leaves Occur
d'Alene upon the arrival of the
ITO electric train from Spokane
and makes all Occur dAlene lake
points as far as Harrison.

SAVIOR OF INLAND EMPIRE.
THE open river will encourage
and demand network of trolley
lines connecting all parts of this
territory to the river. Spokane will
have Independent lines to points on
the Snake and Columbia rivers,
thus insuring steamboat connec-
tons and terminal rate advantages
with it's millions of commercial
savings.
THE open river and the trolley
will be the rate regulator and the
commercial savior of the Inland
Empire. 1t is safe to say that every
farm and city lot will be worth
from 10 to 20 per cent more on ac-
count of the open river.
