JULIUS o. SALLEE.
So 1t is a plain case that fleet of
boats can be started next spring and
operated between Ottumwa and Mis-
sissippi river points from four and a
half to five months of next year, and
they should be started. The operation
OF steamboat and two barges for
the period named will certainly do
two things, to-wit:
Largely reduce the freight charges.
Give the shippers or Ottumwa and
the eight towns below here the water
rate to and from all points east.
north and south.
The operation of the boats during
the good water months each year will
certainly secure the work to improve
the stream, so that it can be used for
the full boating season of eight
months And with the navigation,
through the building of the dams, the
people will get the great water pow

Those interested in the use and i'm
provement of the Des Moines river,
will soon have a definite proposition

ISOLATION, and other organizations in
the eight towns below Ottumwa
A steamboat and two barges can
be brought to Ottamwa, and started
in March, if the shippers will take
one-half interest This will be the
proposition, for on no other plan can
it be made a financial success. We
hope to have meeting of the ship
near future. Secure sufficient sub
scriptions to purchase half interes,

While the votes of the district are

The Waterloo Reporter argues that
the death of tombstone, the aviator,
should no more be made the occasion
for condemning the aeroplane than
the death of foolhardy daredevil
looping the loop on bicycle should
be the reason of condemning the BIZ
cycle, or the fatalities of the auto
road race, be the means of discourag
ing the safe and sane use of the gaso
line car. The Reporter holds to the
view that large per cent of the fla.
talities in all modern modes of trans.
portation are occasioned by hair
raising stunts-the abuse and not the
rise of the convenience.

The Governorship.

With the entry of james X Batch
elder of Arlington the race for the gov
ernOrship becomes thrse-cornered
event, with Hapgood of Peru still try
ing to eliminate one of the possibilities
We can hardly see, however, that DR.
Mead's chances for the nomination are
much injured by this new development
in contest that for lack of Interest
stands alone in the history of the state.
In reality it would appear that if real
support is lost by anyone + fleetwood will
first notice the effects of Mr.. Batchelder's
candidacy.
There are three strong factors that
should be considered in choosing be-
tween DIR. Mead aud Mr.. Fleetwood for
governor. DIR. Mead is the successful
leader of great industry, built up 10y
his own knowledge of business methods;
he presided over the state Senate with
grace and efficiency; his social qualiti-
cations for the office of governor aud his
knowledge of the details thereof are as
great, If not greater, than any other
man the present contest possesses. Mr..
Fleetwood's chief argument in his own
favor is his claim that he represents
new and progressive element opposed to
the method of the man seeking office.
II Mr.. Fleetwood is not seeking the
office at present, by means of speech
making and every other possible en-
deavor, it would so appear to all other
thinking men. Kid gloves, creased
trousers and shiny shoes, a glib tongue
and a delightful stage presence may be
good things for governor to have, but
solid experience that will help To run
the state on business basis constitutes a
more striking appeal to the reasoning, un-
sentimental citizens Rutland Herald.
