WITHRoW ONE OF THEM

DES MONIES, Iowa, July 23.-Re.
publicans are now turning their eyes
up state, as the state judiciary con
vention is set for Tuesday, July o.
With eleven candidates in the field
and but three nominations to be
made, the 1,0A2 delegates who will
attend the convention are closely
watching the movements Of candi.
dates and their respective supporters.
Judge Ben 1. Salinger, candidate
for denomination, is said to be fairly
certain of about 200 delegates on the
first roll call. Holding such a posi-
ton in the minds of convention dop-
esters, he is being made more or less
a storm center by other candidates.
Opposition to Judge Salinger is
manifest against other candidates.
His strength, on the other hand, is
more definite and set in purpose than
the following attached to any one of
the other ten candidates.

The dry dock has just finished the
construction of eighteen barges for
the Memphis, Tenn, district These
barges averaged in cost about $500
each. OF the total cost, about $685.
1000, nearly one-haf was labor which
went to men living in Keokuk. This
lis in addition to an immense amount
|of repairs continually going on to the
government fleet.
Owing to the small river and har-
Dor bill the improvement work on the
mississippi river will be quite limited
this season in the section Keokuk,
Iowa, to Hannibal, Mo. The steamer
Muscatine has already been commits
stoned and is now on the way up the
river with coal for this work. She
will later so to Rock Island and bring
down a steamer from there for re-
pairs at the dry dock. She will then
bring up the suction dredge Apo for
channel work and for building sand
dams. 80
According to Major M. Meigs in
charge at Keokuk, the department
has developed an exchange Of plant,
where one district has idle boats and
another district Is short. The steel
steamer LeClaire for which there
was no use in this district will start
in day or two for Florence, Ala,
where they are building the big Will
son dam. The steel steamer Nauvoo
has already been transferred to the
Louisville, Kentucky district. All
this furnishes positions for steamboat
men out OF job.
