Rapids Improvement COncenfion.---An ad
;ourned meeting ofthe Rapids Improvement.
Convention is to be hclt in the town of Dav
export, on the 10th of October next.
The object Of this convention, as we un
derstand 1t, is to fix upon some psn Tor the
improvement of the navigation Of the river
over the Desmoines Rapids, and then to ask
Congress to make an appropriation for car
rying out that plan.
The difficulty in the passage Of these rap
ids, during the season of lo,o ,cate' is We
ry serious obstaclelto a cheap, expeditions and
safe communication with the Southern mar
kets, and the people of this section Of Iowa
would be greatly benefited by the remoy al
Of this obstacle.
But when this is removed, our difficulties
are rot obviated. Another obstruction far
m ore serious in it's nature than the Des-
MONIES Rapids, interposes itse!fto our com
munication with the south, by way Of the
river, and will continue to do so in spite of
all the conventions which will ever assem-
Bile TO contemplate its removal. a.
Remove as much as, you will, the rocks
and bars from the bottom ofthe river and
still the people Of the whole Upper River
country arc deprived ofite advantages, foi
snearly.if not quite one third Of the time.
The ice is by far the most serious obsta;
Gle with which wehavesto contend, and one
Of which we are more anxidusto rid our.
selves than any which now exists. ~.
This can only be done by the construction
of o Rail Road, such as has been contem
plated by the people ofsthe State, from this
place to some point on the Rigsr below the
Rapids. A.

LEE COUNTY ELECT1oN-We are sorry to
learn from the Fort Madison Statesman Of
the 18th, that Messrs. jackson and Lamson
Democratic candidatesfor the offices of Col.
lector and Judge of Probate, for that county
have been defeated and their Wing oppo
ncnts, Russell and Yelle, elected in their
stead.
This looks bad for q county so thoroughly
Democratic as Lee, and can be accounted
for only Upon the ground Of the personal
u,popularity' of the men. This is the
cause assigned by tho Statesman, and its
correctness is obvious when we rccollect
that some of the Democratic candidates have
received as high as 400 majority. The State
Ticket have .from 100 to 800" Democratic
majority.
Iftne Democracy Of Lee county have had
+ unpopular" men in the field, and have in
consequence thereof shared the modification
of defeat, they have no body to blame but
themselves.
The Democratic convention which brought
out these men, was composed of Delegates
chosen by the people of the county, and
ought to have known and o5eyedt the will OF
the people in their selection Of candidates.
The great difficulty with the Democracy
of Iowa has been and still continues to be,
shat sufficient Importance is not attached to
Primary Township meetings. County con-
ventions are not composed of the right KIND
of material, and until this is remeded by
the people themselves in their Township
,neetinus. we shall still have to record an
occasional Democratic defeat, on the score
Of 'personal unpopufnr1ty.
