TO NAVIGATE THE MISSOURI.

Next spring will see a line of steamboats,
plying on the Missouri river. The ar
rangements have reached a point which
justities this announcement without any
Ifs" or "buts. kansas City Times.
And dry old "plying" it viii be, and
not little tedious, wlthal. Doubtless
the Lord Almighty could make the Mis-
souri, river a navigable stream but doubt
less He never will, while it is certain
that no other power can. An average
walker could make the distance between
ST. Louis and Kansas City, over the ties
of the Missouri Pacific road, quicker
than first class steamer could make the
same cities by the Missouri river, on an
average. The Missouri river is only a
river in name, in reality diluted mud
and sand meandering around countless
snags and over unnumbered sand bars.
Its richness and thickness Of soil would
be capable of producing immense crops
if held stationary long enough or was
spread out over the adjacent bottoms.
Kansas City may succeed, in the absence
of anything better, in worrying the con-
tents of their river down into their whis-
ky hardened stomachs for the sake of
the moisture which it holds in solution,
but when the Times comes to talk about
navigating it, one is led to conclude that
the Times might possibly have some
grievance against the railroads. The
Great Arkansas might possibly be made
navigable up to Wichita, at least COM
petent government engineers have gone
on to the record with such an opinion,
but the contents Of the Great Arkansaw,
or what there is of it, it will be remem-
bered, is not loblolly of a merely flowing
consistency such as is the so-called
drinkable that the Times talks of navi-
eating.

The Nebraska Farmer, on behalf of the

exposition which is to open September 3

the farmers of this state that Here is

The appropriation of S1,000,O00 for the

about all been expended, and the engi-

AtchiSon Patriot.
1t is strange that people possessed of
the Intelligence and business sagacity
that Kansans, citizens of Missouri river
towns. are credited with should be hum
plugged into adopting the idioms adj
vanced by the Times of Kansas City,
when its object was so palpably selfish
that q blind man all but could see it. As
for the appropriations for improving the
Missouri river, of course they will be
made by congress with the accustomed
regularity and hberality of the past. but
as far as establishing and maintaining a
navigable channel in that stream the
year round, it viii be about as sue
cessful as the efforts of the old woman
to keep the ocean tide out of her door
yard with 4 brush broom.

SPRINGFIELD, o., August ia dis-
graceful row occurred in the Republican
Senatorial convention at Urbsna yester-
dsy. Three counties are in the Thirteenth
district, Clark, Madison and Champaign,
and it has been the rule to select the Sem
ators from them By rotation. It was Mad
ison's turn this time, but Clark polled
more Republican votes than the other two
counties together, aud claimed that they
should alternate with it. CLARK pre-
sented Hon. George c. R,Hlins, and
voted fer him solidly, and the
other two counties voted for Hen. J. L.
Locke. Each faction voted for a chair
man and elected him, and pandemonium
reigned supreme. Each faction declared
its indicate elected, and both began
speeches of thanks at the Same time. Fin
ally the Clark county delegation withdrew
from the bowling mob and set up seper-
ate convention. To-day both candidates
are in the field. The Democratic are iubil-
ant at the prospect of elecling Senator.
