GOOD NEWS

President Arthur returned the river
and harbor bill to Congress on Tuesday
without his approval, taking tie ground
that the aggregate Of the bill is entirely
| too large and that many Of the appropri-
| ations are unconstitutional and extrava-
giant.
The friends Of the Mississippi river
appropriation-by far the most important
item il the bfll-were greatly cast down
by this veto, bnt their disappointment
was changed tojoy when Oh Wednesday
the bill was taken up and passed over
the veto by a two-t thirds vote OF each
house ofCongress.
The long and weary fight for govern
ment aid i'll protecting tie lives and
property of the people Of the great
Mississippi valley from the .cncroach-
ments Of the great river that passes our
doors has been Won at last, and the news
will be greeted with universal gladness
