Appropriations for Work.

1.-THE generous appropriations Of
this year, grudgingly permitted to pass
by the opponents in the legislative and
executive departments Of the govern
ment, bear strong testimony to the
power of public opinion which has
been aroused by the river improve
ment association"
The last year has been suspicious
not only because of increased appro-
priation, but also because of increased
transportation on the river, according
to Mr.. Lovelace He says there has
been more transportation on the low
or Mississippi river this year than on
many previous years.
Governor Eberhart delivered an ad-
dress before the association. In which
he dwelt particularly on the relations
between water transportation and
transportation by rail.
Many Of the best railroad men to.
day realize that water transportation
and railroad transportation must work
together" said the governor. ut is
as much advantage to the railroad to
have the waterways deepened as 1t is
to anyone else. The railroad cannot
handle all Of the business. However,
with 4 six-foot canal, bulky material
can be shipped by water. This will
be great blessing to the railroads
themselves and am sure that they
will cooperate. Minnesota is perhaps
more intensely interested in the de.
velepment Of interior waterways than
any other state in the Union"

st. Paul, July 14.-Congress expects
every state and every municipality
along the Mississippi river to show
It's appreciation Of the recent appro-
priations made for river improvement
by providing proper terminals and
maintaining proper freight handling
facilities so that the river can be util-
lied for transportation. This is the
statement of Congressman Tawney of
Winona, chairman Of the committee
on appropriations. Mr.. Tawney gave
short address before the convention
Of the Upper Mississippi Improvement
association at its closing session.
Congress was glad of the oppor-
tunity to appropriate money for this
purpose of improving the rivers, but
1t expects that the states and cities
will now do their part" said Mr.. Taw-
ney.
Thomas Wilkinson of Burlington,
Iowa, was reelected president of the
association; Lewis B. Boswell Of Quin-
cy, Illinois, secretary, and J. P. Eek

Alton, ILL.,, was selected as the place
Of meeting for next year. There was
no opposition to the selection.
Resolutions thanking Congressman
Tawney for his work in getting in
creased appropriations were passed.
The reservoir system of the upper
Mississippi was Endorsed and the con-
vention asked not only that it be main
!, tanned but that it be enlarged.
Now that congress has appropriated
the money for a six-foot channel and
other extensive improvements in the
river, the convention went on record
as believing that 1t was incumbent on
municipalities and business organiza
tions to see that proper terminals and
landings were constructed and that
freight handling facilities were provid-
ed. 1t also recommended that the
building of modern steel craft be en-
couraged.
The Upper Mississippi River I'm
provement association will continue
it's membership in the National Rivers
and Harbors congress and will also
cooperate with all other kindred Or
ganizations in securing improvements
for the river. This intention was in
cluded in the text of the resolution.
Minneapolis -four is the product
most demanded by the states of the
lower Mississippi valley. and for that
reason these states are willing to CO.
operate in securing improvements in
waterways In the upper Mississippi.
This is the opinion of Thomas II.
Lovelace, secretary of the Lake to the
Gulf Deep Waterways association, who
addressed the convention in the morn
ing.

Mayor Keller Talks.

nateQ mayor Keller, the BOY executive
of st. Paul, Il learned in my books
that st. Paul was the head Of naviea.
ton. That is true today, it will be
true when the deep channel Ia complet-
ed and 1t will continue to be the head
of navigation-until the Mississippi is
connected with Lake Superior and
then there will be no head of naviga-
ton"
The inference was that Minneapolis
might be extended the courtesy of
shipping its commerce to st. Paul by
rail to be thence transported by boat
to deep water and that St. Paul would
condescend to give it wharf space
pending transfer. He proceeded to
elaborate on the new depot plans. de.
claring the Strengthening Of the river
at Sibley street would give space for
it, and would provide SO acres of land
for wharfs, warehouses and railroad
terminals.
Mayor Haynes was delightfully."- face.
tious in his response, also kindly and
considerate to st. Paul. almost apollo.
giving for placing Minneapolis on the
deep channelled Father of Waters
map.

(which we shall get by tho grace Of
you gentlemen and the government ae
Washington, we shall have nine.toot
channel at Minneapolis, making the
head of navigation, not st. Paul. not
Minneapolis, but the Twin Cities.
Archbishop Ireland waxed eloquent

Europe envies our river, not . M

Unity NONSENSE" A BIG
SUCCESS AT PROcTOR'S.

nifty Nonsense Is Just a reason
for laughing. IL all the Proctor audi
ences of the week feel the same about
it as that of last night the reason is
a mighty good one. and the work of
Billy CASTOR and Isabel Diamond
very commendable. The pair are
credited with having written the non-
sensical but laughable froth that goes
for dialogue. as we'll as the tuneful
music that e~nlivens the piece. II the
act was stripped of all the original
surface touches that make 1t differ
ent" it would resolve into a song and
dance act.
But while the work of the assigned
headliners was favorably received other
acts got more applause. In a turn of
the same frothy consistency as the
Nonsense" business, Fox and the Mil
lership sisters made one of the big
hits of the evening. Fox has a way
about him. so engaging and his line
of talk Is so dryly humorous that the
stage manager a a hare time ringing
down the curtain in the face of yolleys
of applause. The Musical AVOIDS, who
do clever work on the xylophone, re-
cetved an almost equal amount of ap-
plause for their act.
Other acts on the bill were not above
the mediocre class. Raymond and
Caverly, old-time German comedians,
do a conventional Weber & Field talk
fest In a way that pleases. Howard
LANCE, assisted by a fairly good COM
pany, works up a good patriotic at
mosphere, proceeds to give a vivid
description Of the battle of sailors, and
then, In the character of the old gen.
eral. lays down and dies. It's all very
pathetic, but 1t don't hit home, for
some reason.
The Bessie Valdare troupe of comedy
young women cyclists present a good
act in their line; Walsh, Lynch and
company attempt to combine melo-
drama and comedy in "Huckns's Cor
ners," and succeed, maybe, and Ward
and Simms do a unique dancing act.
