CLEAR RIVER CHANNEL.
Government Engineer Expects No
More Trouble on Upper Mississippi.

Navigation on the Mississippi river
will not be retarded again, even in
years when the water is low, owing to
work done by the government during
the summer in dredging the channel
and constructing dams, according to
J. d. Du Shane, assistant United States
engineer, in charge of the work On the
Mississippi
The two dredges are going into win
ter quarters, one at Saltwater, and the
dam building squadron, consisting of
two steamboats, and twenty-five barges
and quarter boats, will go in before the
week is over The government has
had more than 100 men on the river
employed continually this summer in
various capacities. 1t has spent about
$125,nn0 on the work.
"?'hv reason some of the steamboats,
had difficulties this spring was because
we didn't get the dredges at work
early enough" said Mr. Du Shane.
1--WE are now, however, up with the
work and from now on steamboats,,
both freight and passenger, will find
no difficulty in plying between Winona
and st. Paul, which is the extent of
our jurisdiction. believe it will be
feasible next summer to place upon
the river fleet of freight boats of
good tonnage"

N0RTHROP IS NAMED
PRESIDENT EMERITUS is SUG-
GESTED FOR REPRESENTA-
TIVE-AT-LARGE.
HE APPRECIATES THE IDEA
Present Time. but Doubts Whether
He Could Be of any
2ervice.

Minneapolis.--W asked whether
he would allow che alumni of the Univ
ersity of Minnesota to place him in
nomination for representative at large,
as reported in Minneapolis they intend
doing, if he WAS willing, DR.. Cyrus
Northrop, president emeritus of the
university, said:
"This question does not have to be
decided at once. l haven't given it any
thought. 1t would, however, be great
deal against my inclination, and the
only thing that would induce me to
accept such proposition would be
the thought that l could do good. And
| doubt whether this is possible.
81 realize that there is need for
much work in Congress at present, and
| appreciate the trust reposed in me
by those who have nominated my
name for the position"
Further than this, DR.. Northrop re-
fused to discuss the matter.
Many prominent citizens of the state
have been mentioned for the honor.
AS the next Legislature will reappor-
ton the state into ten congressional
districts, the representative at large
will only serve for one term.
DR.. Northrop, while a professor al
Yale, took an active part in politics
and was good campaigner for the
Republican party. He maintained a
non-partisan attitude while president
of the University Of Minnesota, and
the first political speech he had made
for twenty-seven years, it is said, was
at the Minneapolis Auditorium the
evening of Oct. "a, when he introduced
President Taft. At banquet of the
German Pedagogical society in Mime
apolis on the evening of Oct. 81, DR..
Northrop gave his views on the ques-
ton of the recall, the initiative and the
referendum.

st. Cloud.-Arthur M. German, pri-

Congressman Lindbergh had not con-
scented to be candidate for governor,

one who was interested in the matter.
1t can be stated with absolute certain
ty that Mr.. Lindbergh will be a can
