of the State Railroad Commission in 1908. The state is well supplied with water
transportation, having the following navigable rivers: Mississippi, Yazoo,
Tallahatchie, Sunflower, Pearl, Pascagoula, Big Black, Tombigbee, and some
minor streams that are navigable during a portion of the year. There are
deep-water harbours on the gulf coast at Horn Island opposite Pascagoula, and
Ship Island opposite Gulf Port. There is a depth of water at the pier of the Gulf
and Ship Island Railroad at Gulf Port of 23 feet at low tide, and 30 feet in the

lighters through a deep-water channel. There are also harbours at Bay of St.
Louis and Biloxi.
