Referring to your letter of Feb. 24th
last, to the senators and representatives
of Oregon in Congress, asking us to make
efforts to secure an appropriation of $179-
597,00 for continuing work on the canal
and locks at the Cascades, and that at
least $10,000.00 be made available
at once, and further suggesting
that we urge upon the secretary,
of war the importance of the locks be
ing used for the passage of boats, if con
bis tent with safety, during the present
year, I now have the pleasure to inform
you that the appropriation asked for has
been made in the sundry civil bill, and
that an additional appropriation of $50-
000.00, for continuing said work has
been made available for completing cer
tain portions of the work, so that the
operation of the locks may not be un
necessarily delayed.
The members of the Oregon delega
tion in Congress have also written a let
ter to the secretary of war, urging the
speedy completion of the work. A copy
of the letter is herewith enclosed.
I have also to inform you that Sena
tor Mitchell and I today called at the
office of the secretary of war, for the pur
pose of personally urging upon him the
necessity and importance of completing
the improvement at the earliest date
practicable, but wa were unable to see
him on account of his absence from the
city. We called, however, upon the
chief of engineers, and strongly urged
upon him the necessity of early com pie
tion of that portion of the woik neces
sary to be completed in advance of the
opening of the canal to commerce, and
specially requested that the locks be
opened for the paesage of boats at the
earliest date consistent with safety of
the work. We. were assured by the
chief of engineers that the locks would
be opened for the passage of boats, as
soon as the condition of the work would
warrant the use and operation of the
canal for that purpose. I remain, gen
tlemen, yours very truly,
Geo. W. McBbide.
The letter to the secretary of war
reads as follows:
; Washington, D. C, Jone 4, '96.
Hon. Daniel 8. Lament, Secretary of War.
Sie : We beg leave respectfully to aBk
your attention to the clause in the tiver
and harbor bill, appropriating $50,000
ior continuing work on the canal an
locks and containing the following pro
vi8o in relation thereto :
"Twenty thousand dollars of which
or o much thereof as may be necessary.
shall be immediately available for ex
penditure in the discretion of the eecre
tary of war, in constructing on the land
and siver sides of the canal between tbe
upper lock gate masonry and the lower
guard gate masonry, such portions of
tbe walls proposed in the modified
project presented by the board of engin
eeers in its report of October 18, 1894,
(which report was printed in the annual
report of the chief of engineers, for the
year 1895, Part V, pp. 3576 and follow
ing), as it may be necessary to construct
in advance of tbe opening of the canal
to commence." '
We have been informed by the chie
of engineers that the completion of tbe
work specified in the foregoing proviso
would make it practicable to open the
canal to commerce, without awaiting the
completion' of the entire project, as
modified by the report of the board of
engineers, above referred to, and, in
view of the great benefit that would ac
crue to the producing and commercial
interests of tbe upper Columbia region,
by reason of the early opening of the
canal to the passage of steamboats, we
respectfully, but most earnestly urge
that such work be begun immediately,
and pushed forward to early completion. J
we peg leave Herewith to present
copies of memorials presented to con
gress on behalf of the Astoria Chamber
of Commerce, Astoria, Oregon, and The
DalleB Commercial Club, of The Dallee
Oregon, setting forth in detail the im
portance of the completion of this work
and the great loea to commerce should
