MAKE CHEHAL1S NAVIGABLE Jones Seeks Appropriation for Im provement of River. MONTESANO, Wash., March 19. (Spe cial.) Engineer J. M. Clapp has asked the Montesano Chamber of Commerce for data that Major Chittenden can embody in his report to Congress in which he will recommend an appropriation large enough to rid the Chehalis River of snags and bars from Montesano to Cosmopolls, thus giving a deep-water channel to the sea. This action is the outcome of the efforts of Congressman W. L. Jones, who ob tained an appropriation for an official survey of the Chehalis River, which was made some time ago by Captain Car penter, in which he advised that the river be dredged. The opening of the river channel to all classes of navigation will be of great advantage to. this city. Not Long? Enough in Party. OREGON CITY, Or., March 19. (Spe-clal.)-J. A.
