It is an acknowl- edged fact by all but propagandists that waterborne transportation is much cheaper than any other means of moving heavy goods. goods is meant grain, copper and zinc, lumber and livestock which the northwest produces in such abund- ance. Savings approximating 40% on freight tariffs are being made in the east, where the waterways have been developed to a great extent. By extending the navigable channel of the Missouri river into Montana, these freight savings would be had Piswanant to Dream of Empire RURAL CHURCH NOTICES SACRED HEART CATHOLIC CHURCH Wilton, N.

Likewise, the Plaint of “subsidized” competion, that black and brutal cloud upon the rail horizon, looms less as ominous than as justified, when one con- siders the 60,000,000 acres of lands given in outright grant to the Union Pacific and Northern Pacific back in the days when they were “subsidized” private interests competing with the great commerce then flourishing on the Missouri river.

MONUMENT TO A MILLION DOLLAR VENTURE tall, native brick chimney—all that remains of a blue-blooded Frenchman's huge meat packing plant— today stands as a monument to a million dollar enterprise that failed to stimulate the Marquis de Mores’ inland empire. Fifty-three years ago the Marquis pitched his tent on the Little Missouri river tw establish a meat packing plant which he asserted to slaughter cattle on the range “Cattle shrink about 12 per cent while in transit,” the Marquis Feb., 1884, “and this amount will The Marquis envisioned a mighty inland empire. “Before long some of my wealthy friends in France will come over to build tanneries, glue factories and horn works and s0 es- tablish interests that will tend to speedy development of the country,” De Mores spent a million dollars, He hought 50,000 acres of land and 10,000 head of cattle. He encouraged immigration by giving each settler who located on government land 40 acres of land broken and gets a start for the first year and has crop as s00n as he, reaches here.

The great steel centers of Pennsylvania ie right on the Ohio; the great grain ports of Duluth, Chicago ports the crossroads of the world—New York and New Orleans—all these can be reached by inland waters. The west’s wheat, livestock, lumber and copper could move eastward on great barges; on their return they would carry farm machinery, automobiles and other processed goods from the east—all cheaply borne by an effi- cient transportation medium, A little more of this economsis amount to 100,000,000 bushels in rormal years. As a conservative esti- mate, take 5c per bushel as the amount of the saving to farmers in these states—$5,000,000 to put back in their pockets. $5,000,000 would pay —eE—E—EE—EEE 200 fine shirts on sale at|°%s $1.50 each, 8 for $4.25. Berge- nus the cost of moving it to those markets, whether locally consumed or sold to elevators. Lower rates would mean higher local prices, without the necessity of shipping. To improve the Missouri to Fort Benton, Montans, two dams must be built between Fort Peck and Fort Benton. One would be located near Wilder and the other near the Judith river. This would provide a nine- foot channel over the four miles be- tween Fort Peck and iFort Benton. The cost? Government men have sur- veyed the river possibilities and esti- mated that. Locks, of course. would be installed in these dams. Now a bit of defense is necessary for the apparent weak spot — what about the gap between Sioux City and Fort Peck, 1300 miles? Government figures indicate an average six-foot channel will be maintained from Fort Peck to Sioux City, and that will float @ lot of boats. Reports from the east re that a tug drawing four feet of water, capable of towing four parses, each carrying 1000 tons of cargo, is being designed. Eastern interests are planning to put boats on this stretch of river as quickly as possible—all they need are government snagbvoats to the channel of obstructions. With the Missouri river thus im- proved to its old-time head of navi- be constructed to allow use of diesel trucks with trailers, with a capacity of 100 tons or more, Such highways would provide the final link in transportation chain stretching from New York toSeattle, using the Hudson river, Erie canal, Great Lakes, Illinois canal and the Mississippi and Mis- souri rivers as well as the super-high- way. It would cut around 3,000 miles from the Panama canal route, elim- inate back hauls, save time, insure that our shipping from New York to Oriental ports would be handled at least for that distance by our citi- zens, rather than in foreign bottoms through the Panama canal. It would bring to substantial com- pletion our inland waterway system, Jong neglected, and put the United States again in the front rank in the use of its transportation facilities. An added reason for the river-high- way route to the west is that such a route would be capable of carrying heavy guns and munitions from-coast to coast-in time of war, something impossible at present. It could mean the difference between successful de- fense of our coasts and utter defeat in war. JOEL F.
