T LAST, large, splendid, most
gratifying and satisfactory re
sults of the government's jetty
work at the. mouth of the Co
lumbia river are apparent.1 All that
was necessary to secure such results
was an appropriation sufficient to
prosecute , the work steadily under
continuing contract, and under such
able supervision as that of Colonel
Roessler.
. According to the official lnspec
tion just made, the channel has been
widened from 800 to 3,000 feet, and
deepened , to 26 feet at low tide
which means about 34 feet at high
tide. Work to be done yet will deep
en the channel still more, but" that
this Increased depth has been ob
tained at the same time that the
channel has been so greatly widened
is extremely encouraging. ';'
Now If the Port of Portland law
passed at the last election should be
sustained by the : supreme court, so
that the handling of the river's com.
merce can be improved as it needs
to' be, Portland and all other ports
on the river, will be In a far better
position than ever before. At no
previous time has theiver Improve
ment-been In so satisfactory a' con
dition, nor the prospect for its com
merce so bright.
But mnch very Important work re
mains to be done. The Jetty work
must be continued, perhaps a north
jetty built, until an ample perma
nent depth is assured. - Work on the
channel above Astoria will also be
necessary, though it now accommo
dates ships drawing over , 23 feet.
And efforts must not be relaxedf or
continuous, rapid work on the Celllo
canal. We have now got a very good
start made, and must do all that can
be done to keep the good work mov

than ever before, and our outlet to

depth and breadth, making this in

The bar channel was the especially
important thing, the "key to the

that, all the rest is comparatively
easy. Hurrah for the big deepened
