The River Improyement.

Will the ctizchs and property holders Of
Wapelo County and especially Ottumwa
forget :he vast interest they have in the i'm
provement of the Demoine River?
IL must not he forgotten that by the Contract
made in Jan 1884 with the Demoine Naviga-
zion and Rail Road Co., hat Company
agreed to expend one million three hundred
thousand dollars, without regard to The guam
tity of land that might be obtained from the
River Grant and that that Sum will certainly
produce Stack Waiter to this place il not still
higher up tho River.
Again il the present company are not per-
mitted to go on with tine contract, what has
been done will become almost total loss aud

provement. -r- E,t.s.., 10 .,r. --. ..
The Company are ready and willing to ex

and that will so far complete the improvement
sto be of great advantage. The case presen-

The Result.

We have met the enemy and so far as this
county is concerned, we are sorry to saw that
they are not ours. What the result in the
State j., remains to be seen. Reports, so far
as received, indicate small majority for the
Constitution in this Congressional District.
We have heard nothing from the %. We are
inclined to think that the Constitution has beer
adopted by majority somewhat below the
Republican majority at the November election !;
but it is uncertain in consequences of local
questions in many counties. The vote every.
where is represented to have been light. In
this county we are satisfied that it will fall
short several hundred of the real vote of the
county, and the deficiency will be found to be
mainly on our side. a q sal.
