It commenced July lat 1690 and is still raging. The wool trade of this country is improving very rapidly. The wool trade of Ottumwa this year will be double that of any former year, and the prices paid have been quite liber al.

The farmers convention in this city Saturday, seems to have stirred up hornets nest. There is an unusual amount of buzzing going on, and every candidate except the fellow from the country claims a majority ot the 42 delegates. We made a pre diction sometime ago that the city would gouge the country, and it proved correct, as lite city has bas 37 of delegates and the country only most. The Central railroad north is bar ing a large run of passengers at pres eut generally for Clear Lake. meeting at The that place is being very largely attended, and from the best information we can gather a larger crowd of people are at the Lakes at present than ever were be fore.

A Put Up Jon.—Out of the 42 delegates nominated In the democrat ic townsptp convention, on Saturday last, 37 5 arc from the city and only from tho country. This actly what we proves THE RACES After our report closed FrMta!^, the running horses were brought (o the score for the third, and which proved to be, the final heat. Malvern had the lead and kept it up to the turn on the home stretch when the horses were all in a bunch, and in some way Malvern was thrown and had his leg broken below the fetlock. This enabled Lady Jack to come to the front who won tho heat in 1.50. Capo Cord 2nd, Queen of Diamonds 3rd and Longstride 4th. Under the rules this gave the race to Lady Jack, because no other horse had won a heat, and it being provid ed in those vules that all horses fail ing to win one heat in three, shall be sent to the stable. It was an anomalous and remarkable situation. The horse that had won two heats and was just about to win the third one had his leg broken. Sangamon had been withdrawn with a lame leg, and Cape Cord, Queen of Diamonds and Longstride had to be sent to the stable under the rule, so that Lady Jack won the first money on winning the third heat alone,while Cape Cord, Queen of Diamonds and Longstride were awarded 2d, 3d and 4th money respectively, without winning a heat. The other horse men in the race very creditably allowed the owner of Malvern, on account of his mis fortune, to tako second money and withdraw his pools from the pool box besides, on account of the acci dent the judges declared al" pools and bets off. It is to be regretted that the closing performances of the meeting were so unsatisfactory, but the horsemen themselves who are traveling around on this circuit are to blame for it. On the suspicion that Ed. Daggett was not driving Waprllo Chief to the extent of his speed, the otlur day, this ring of horse gamblers, who had bet heavily on that horse, insisted on the withdrawal of These same smart Alecks had, u ing Thu rday night and yesterday morning, set up a job whereby Mountain l/uaij and Malvern and he was sold horses in the field for both races. Our people, and all others who were not in the ring, bought pools heavily on tho field, and when it became apparent that Teaser and Pilot were being held to allow Mountain Quail to win the trotting rai'0, the outsiders and anti-ringsters insisted that the rwle which had ap plied to Daggett, must he applied jn this case, and the judges wisely de termined to put Daggett behind Teaser ^hereupon the latter'sowners took hliy fombjy, and in spite of Sfarshal Jioont/., to the stably .creat ing a great hub-bub, and nearly .causing a general fight. Their action proved tho conspiracy, and stamped thein with being guilty of the very things charged.

Ottumwa's destitution of roads for pleasure driving, is too generally known and felt to require comment. At this time, few of us care to invite our visiting friends to ride, for want of streets or avenues upon which to drive with safety. Feeling this great need iu common with other good cit izens, and for the purpose of inciting property owners and others to com bine in maki»g an improvement so long needed, ex said a day or two ago, that the canditates in tho city wculd set up the delegation and try to mo nopolize all the good nominations in towtf. In addition to this each of these town caudidates will claim that they can carry from 100 to 300 repub lican votes, but when they come to deliver them they will find they liavn't got them. In any event we now predict that the country districts will be effectually scooped oat by the wire pullers in town.

We arc It is a uotorious fact that there are no good roads leading out of the city. It is a great annoyance, expense, and discredit to the city and'Jountryalike that this is so. if a stranger should visit the city and you should desire to drive him out to see the country,there is not a decent road in any direction except the one out towards the fair grounds, and even that one has not been lit for anything but the heaviest and strongest road wagons, inure than half tho time during the past three years. The wear and tear of vehicles in coming and going over such roads as lead into the city is no trifling matter,not to mention the dis credit it thfows upon property situ ated on such miserable highways.— We hope that the times and weather will permit, ere long, the country su pervisors to see to it that the roads and bridges on the highways leadiug to the city are put in a passable con dition for the benefit of country and city travelers alike.

Littleton here suggested that the convention was acting in a very slip shod iiiuiiner and iu .a rated the rescinding ui' stay ing away from It. The meeting was, iu many respects, a success, especially in the number of fine horses pieseut. It was not a fi nancial success, however, owing mainly to tho bad weather which preceded it, aud which kept our peo ple away and at their crops. As it is, the managers citizen, a democrat ami had, as lie understood it, a to ^ar^icip^te in a mass convention that he was not affected by President Haves' recent order and he was entitled to a hearing. Judge Hendershott said that he was opposed to the motion, that he had been appointed a delegate, and any member was dissatisfied with the nominatian all that was necessa ry was to aav so. At this stage of the proceedings the thing got hot and personalities were bandied back and forth quite lively. Pat Brady said he did not waut to un the convention by "a d—d sight," but was opposed to the motion and moved to lay Littleton's motion on the table. Aid. McCue moved to adjouru. The President was perplexed with the numerous calls, but finally he recognized Mr. Cory, who moved amend Mr. McCue's motion to finally decided that Cory had the right to make an amendment if he wanted to. Cory then amended McCuo'smotion "to adjouru as soon as the list of del egates was completed and a township committee was appointed.'' Adopted. At this stage of the proceedings, in lull in the storm, Jas. Peck, John Fleming, John Burke, Henry Wil liams, Sam Burton, J. K were nominated as delegates which completed the list. Taken all together it was a boister ous convention, and tho president heaved a deep sigh of relief when the business was concluded and the convention ready to adjourn. For Bale.
