R. H. Moore, editor and publisher of
the Ottumwa Saturday Herald,
through his attorney, w. w. Cory,
has filed notice that he will appeal
from the decision of the board to the
district court on the selection of the
Democrat, as he claims that the list
of subscribers filed by the Democrat
was illegal in that it combined the list
of the Democrat and News. Both pa

Democrat by Messrs. Blake & Hall,
before the board, which body finally
decided in favor of the Democrat.
