Thereafter, beginning in July, 1910, the work was done by hired labor, and, except for the con struction and installation of lock gates and small bridges, the canal was completed under this method.

As a mat ter of fact the total cost up to May 1 of this year, including all retalneJ balances on contracts and other out standing liabilities, will be about 14, 743,000, or about 1100,000 less than the estimate. Included In this cost, however, Is about 1300,000 In plant, out of which there will be consider able salvage, which will be credited back to the appropriation. It also Includes a number of buildings orig inally not provided for; and it la per fectly safe to say that the cost of the canal is at least J250.000 under the estimate. $300,000 Sned. The percentage of work done by contract was a little less than one fifth, and the average cost of the work done was less than that done by con tract, even though the contract price was very low. But the chief saving was In the greater flexibility and ease In changing plans to effect economies; and from Information I have received I think I am quite within the mark when I state that such changes as have been made have resulted in a saving of $300,000 and possibly more. The officers In charge of this work from 1900 to 1915 were as follows: Major W. C. Langfitt, U. Col 8. W. Roessler, Major J. F. Mclndoe, Major J. B. Cavanaugh (temporarily for four months), Lt.-Col. Jay J. Morrow (from March, 1910, to date). Assistants Captain A. A. Fries (under Col. Langfitt), Capt. Henry H. Kohert (1910-191J), Capt. Theo. H. Dillon (1913-1916). Civilian engineers- -Mr. Fred C. Kchubert, assistant engineer; Mr. O. E. Goodwin, assistant engineer; Mr. W. o. Carroll, Junior engineer; Mr. Ink Brownlee, Junior engineer; Mr. J. H. Polhemus, Junior engineer; Mr. Frank Haunders, Junior engineer. Mr. A. Seymour Fleet, who design ed the gates for Cascade Locks, also designed these gates. It Is but aue to Mr. Fred C. Schu bert to state that he has been with the work throughout Its entire life, and a more enhusiastlc and devoted officer It would be hard to find. I1 have gone into thews details at some! length In order that Justice might bei done to the corps of engineers of the United States army, which corps nan in charge In addition to Its other du ties, the work of the river and har bor Improvement of this country. " The result of this particular Im provement demonstrates that where the engineers have the opportunity they secure results. The handicap they labor under, what with Intermit tent operation and various limitations, both under the law and otherwise. Is but little realised by the people gen erally; and I am glad to have this op portunity to express my respect and honor for them, representing as they do a branch of the service that has been distinguished throughout Its en tire life for honor, Integrity and abil ity. On October 22, 1805, and again on their return on April IS of the fol lowing year, the Lewis and Clark ex position, Inaugurated and made pos sible by that great statesman, Thom as Jefferson, made a portage around Celllo Falls. It is interesting to note that the obstruction to navigation at this point has been used as a never falling means of extorting tribute in one form or another from the public, for Its control meant not only the con-' trol of the traffic In general but at times of men as well. Indian Troubles. From the time of the first settle ment on the Columbia river at Astor ia by the Pacific Fur company on April 12, 1811, until after the arrival cf Dr. John McLoughlin as chief fac tor of the Hudson Bay company In) 1824, there was trouble with the In-1 dlans at Celllo. Their control of the! portage practically prohibited other! Indians from traveling between Celllo' and the lower Cascades. They acted! as traders, pxschaslng commodities .from the Indians above Celllo and other commodities from those below the lower Cascades, thus acting as both buyers and sellers, making a profit out of both ends of the transac tion and keeping the trade wholly In their own hands. Until about 1883 transportation companies had and ex ercised substantially the same con trol as did the Indians In the earlier days. Prior to the time of the com pleilon of the railway along the Co lumbia river traffic could be handled only by steamer, and a portage around Celilo Falls was necessary. Competi tion on the river was Impossible, as the company controlling the portage would not transport goods over its road for steamboats other than Its own. Even with the completion of railway and the substitution of rail for water transportation, this obstruc tion in the river continued dominant, and not only prevented the use of the river for navigation, but also helped to maintain high rates by rail. Thus we find that whether the por tage was In the hands of Indians or Anglo-Suxon it served Its hold up pur pose equally well. Indeed It would be difficult to capitalise and put In exact figures the value which In the past this obstruction to commerce has represented to those in control of It It would run to a magnificent am ount, and, If It could have been con tinued Indefinitely, with the growth j and development of this country It would nave become a prise well worth striving lor. Perhaps the history of thN portage will serve to explain why so much opposition to similar projects such as the Panama canal, and Indeed to the Improvement of waterways generally, Is made. The Shackles Broken. So far as Celilo Is concerned, how ever, the shackles are broken. - The liver ia free at last, and tolls based on the control of this portage will no longer be levied either by red man or white man. One chain was sundered at the Cascades; another we are breaking today; soon Priest Rapids will be freed, and then our dream will almost be realized. ' I tr.uy also say that-we have not been idle In other directions and that while I lie engineers were clearing channels, building locks and dlggln,; canals, o.hers were working on the no less important work of freeing our rivers from a control that tended to make these improvements of no avail. even ufter our millions were spent. 1 refer to rf Uroad-owned r.ntt controlled beat nes, which throttle real eom competitlon and prevented all true use of our waterways as instrumental ities of commerce. We are celebrat Ing not only the opening of this Ce lilo canal, but a river free In truth and In fact; for now, after all these years of struggle, the steamboat will have a fair chance, and the river will be able to serve Its purpose unham pered by the domination which has heretofore stifled competition and re stricted service.. Before closing I wish to say a few words on the future of our rivers. Our work la not finished. It has only vast and far-reaching as to be almost beyond our minds to grasp.
