1000 married women work as clerks

rises to $1,4O0. In the gymnasiums and
secondary schools many of the pro.

The municipal council Of Copenhagen
has ten women members. In brief, in

be economically independent through
her own labors.

MISSISSIPPI TO CANAL
j. G. Armson Of Saltwater Say,
Electric Power Worth $1,000
Annually Gould be Developed.

Duluth on the pro
posed extension of the twenty-foot
channel in the st. Louis river which
empties into the Duluth-Superior har
dor from Big Island to Commonwealth
avenue at New Duluth, were heard
here by government engineers. Two
other proposed projects also received
attention, the principal one being the
proposed canal to connect Lake Su
pefior and the Mississippi river.
-. The board of engineers was com:
posed of Col. G. L. Potter Of St. Paul
chairman; Lieutenant Colonel F. R
Skunk of Pittsburg, and Captain E
D. Peek of Duluth.
The principal argument for the
canal connecting Lake Superior and
the Mississippi river was made by j.
G. Armson Of Saltwater, representing
the St. Croix River Improvement As
ISOLATION; the Citizens Association OF
saltwater, the Upper Mississippi
River Improvement Association, and
the Association of Commerce Of St.
Paul.
Mr.. Armson contended for channel
eight feet deep suitable for floating
large canal barges. He read several
pages of argument and statistics set.
ting forth that the proposed canal
would connect the waters Of the nation
generally and give a direct water
route through the heart of the cont.
nent to connect with the Panama
canal. He said that annual savings
Of $4,500,o0o in transportation costs
would be possible and that electric
power worth $l,000,000 annually could
be developed.
A request for harbor of refuge at
the mouth of Brute river, Lake Super
ior, was presented. There was some
opposition to the canal by people who
don't think the project practical.
