It is the impression here that some thing could I h * done for Nehalem with the present appropriation, mid that a reasonable addition to it w ould give that place adequate harlstr facilities. The engineer says regarding Nehalem: ao project for the improvement of the Nehalem having been definitely and formally decided ujsin and no work of construction having la-en authorised or commenced, I refrain from milking any recommendations as to future appropria tions, or us to the amount that could be profitably exjiended upon the work dur ing the next fiscal year.
