Capt. 3. H. Thomas of South Ottum.
wa, An old riverman who Is cham
pion of the cause of the navigation OF

doubt that in the sos steamboats,
piled up and down the river, before q

that although it was shown to the
government that the river was at one
time navigable in order to gain tho
two surveys recently completed, many
people regard this as legend. Many

friends, stated in letter just a few
days ago, that he (Capt. Patten), was
cabin boy on the Badger State,

Moines river Now and then we meet
