Illustrative Of the handicap under

costs so cents to place American corn

Sixteen states, including Montana,

Thirteen of them, Montana being one,

amined the project and reported fa-
vorably on one report. Three differ
ent plans were presented. A 25-foot
channel will cost S252,OO0,O0O and a
30-foot channel $270,000,OO0. This In

to 100000 horse power. A royalty
of two mills per kilowatt horsepow

feasibility of the proect from tn
standpoint of power alone was ind

Just coming to an end and voted
against it, due to my anxiety to OBJ I
tain action upon a number of meas /
ures of Importance to various parts
of Montana, which not been disposed |
of. But it must be remembered that
the chairmen of more important COM
nlittees of the upper house are Of a
rather advanced age and the tempor-
airy suspension Of business was a
means to provide them a short rest
from the strenuous work.
Congress has done a remarkably
large amount Of constructive work
and l have but touched upon those OF
the most Importance. The lower house
had passed practically all Of the bills
before it at the time of recesslng,
which were of immediate necessity,
and those that were not passed by
the senate are now receiving atten-
tion. The lower house is now mark
ing time while the senate chatches
up. About the fourth Of October the
house will again begin on the pro-
gram for the balance Of the special
session. There is so much work be-
fore it that this session viii run on

inning in December without doubt.
