ed in the route of the portage road.
Tbe government canal will not con
flict with tbe portage and it would
seem tbe slate could reserve enough
for It own purposes In executing the
canal title.
In effect, then, there Is already In
hand both tbe right of way and tbe
funds for building the road. The
Mate portage board, however, fears
the appropriation made will not be
sufficient and hesitates to proceed
on a work tbat may remain unfinish
ed and useless.
To meet this objection the Open
River Association, composed of sub
stantial cltiaess and busing men,
has offered to undertake the con
strcctlon with the available funds
and to give a guarantee bond to pro
vide any additional funds found nec
awary. There Is where the matter
Stands now.
Tbat hi all there Is between Lewis

revolution that would ensue ln turn

the Columbia water route instead of
hauling it out across mountains and
