Open River Projects Move Forward in Northwest Coast
The Lewiston Teller reports that Captain W. W. Hart’s plan to remove navigation barriers between Celilo and The Dalles gains renewed backing as he returns to the Oregon Washington river and harbor work. The proposal envisions canals with locks linking natural channels over about ten miles to restore navigable water above The Dalles, seeking a large federal appropriation and local support. Oregon Washington Idaho figures like Senator Ankeny and Reed’s marriage law bill appear in connected coverage, underscoring regional political dynamics and social concerns of the era.
