He said he found that river conditions in and about Omaha were sadly neglected. He said It was absolutely imperative for those Interested locally to bestir themselves if any help , is lo be expected from '.he government. He compared the IJO.oOO.oOO appropriation for Improvement between Kansas City anil the mouth of the Missouri river with the paltry tliO.000 appropriated for Improve ment between Kansas City and Omaha. Among other things planned by the com mittee Is lo make the S', per cent silt row floating past Omaha do some service for tho city ami vicinity, instead of tear'ng away chunks of Nebraska land and river frontage and carrying it down Mi.im.
