Wallace Grpelle, editor: of the Breckenridgo Demo, erat, and who lived in Millersburg when Mr. Blaine taught school, published the follow, bur, editorial in his paper? there had been' anvthin? in the storr of Blaine havinir wranired a rounar inmate, either teacher or pupil, of a seminary at Georgetown.

at the time he was engaged as a tutor in the Western Military institute, we who were born and reared. In that country would hsve heard eomeiaiDjr or n.particu- Ex-Senator McDonald, of a Indiana, is the last democrat who would have suspected of yielding to partisan motives in refusing justice to Blaine in reference to the vile calumnies of the Indianapolis Sentinel. McDonald, in giving his advice about the suit brought by Blaine against that paper, said: "Put off the trial: till after the election and then the result of the campaign will be known; no political end will thtii be subserved; interest in the case will diFappear and it will be dropped." That is to say, the slanderer, who, by the way, controls the chief organ of McDonald's party in his I own state, should interpose delays and deny, to Blaine, if possible, the opportunity of demonstrating1 the falsity of the vile at tack upon his personal honor and the good name of his family. The foul lie was put afloat by the Indianapolis libeller to influence the election, and McDdiiald deliberately puts himself in the attitude of advising his party to taka all the advantage that can be got out of the lie by preventing Blaine from crushing the life out of it in court "till after the election," and this, too, under the pretense that thus "no -political end will be" subserved." Blaine stands ready to instantly nail the lie by legal demonstration. But McDonald, one of the acknowledged leaders of the Indiana democracy, says in effect to his democratic client: "Interpose delays; postpone the day of justice as long as possible; don't give Blaine an opportunity to disprove the slander so long as it can help the democratic party, for whose benefit the- slander was invented; after the election it won't make any difference." The Chicago Journal admits that the Iowa prohibitory law does not define precisely what constitutes an intoxicating beverage, but thinks nevertheless that the courts of the state will construe the law as drawing the line "pretty close to sour milk and compressed yeast," It is given out that OoL Fellows, of New York, who led the anti-Tammany fight in the democratic national convention, will make four democratic speeches in Iowa this fall, and that Speaker Carlisle, of Kentucky, is engaged for ten speeches, at least.

The latest newB indicates that there is friction between England and France, growing out of the military operations of the latter in China. English war ships are being got in readiness to dispatch to Chinese waters to be on hand in case of emergency. England has large commercial and other interests in China, acquired mainly through as unjust aggression as the policy France is now pursuing. But England distrusts France and fears that she aims at larger conquest in China than appears on the surface. The English nation can not brook the thought of the spoliation of such a-land as China, unless England gets a share, and the lion's share, of the plunder.

English envy and greed, therefore, are prompt to respond to French aggression in China. It will be a wonder if the war in China can be steered clear of European complications.

Joins heartily in the wish. Ellas the prominent greenbacker of Linn county, writes a letter to the Cedar Rapids Gazette, giving notice that he has not given a warrantee deed to his soul to Gen. Weaver, and that he will go over to the Lord's side In this campaign.

By the Lord's side, it ts quite unnecessary to explain, he means the republican party. It must be rather humiliating to so proud a man. as Senator Hall, of Burlington, the democratic candidate for congress in the First district, to have the following notice served on him by the Keokuk Constitution that he must get down on his belly in puhlio as the price of democratic votes in Keokuk and Lee county: a Mr." Hall accepted the nomination ou this platform, and we are assured that when he comes to Keokuk during the campaign that he will make his position on this question of removal of the courts and opposition to an appropriation for a building for their accommodation plain and unequivocal vto every democrat here, as he did to us at Fair- iieiu.

To trie 'Women of Iowa, Having been invited to superintend the display orWomen's Work" at the great cotton centennial world's exposition at New Orleans, commencing -December 18S4, I ask your aid and sympathy in attempting to make this department worthy of yourselves. Tens of thousands of Iowa women visit this "exposition, promising, as it does, to be greater than any heretofore made. If the work of Iowa women is-to- displayed so that visitors from this state shall have a cause to blush as they se the department inspected by the two millions who will there congre gate, an must put iortn wining nanus, action must be The tune lor preparation and collection Is but ninety days.

Every sort of handiwork of Iowa women that is capable of transportation without too much risk, and susceptible of display, will be in order. The cunning fingers of Iowa women are competent tojmake this exhibit an honor to the state, and I rely on the spirit of Iowa women to do this. Iowa women made a very creditable dis play in 1876 of many varieties of needle work, embroideries, lace work, crocheting, repouse, carving on wood, etching painting in oil, water colors and mineral, drawine-s.

sketches, crayons, but woman's work since then has been greatly extended, and I nope lor this exposition an increased variety of work; and a degree of excellence corresponding to the progress of the period which has passed since that time. Correspondence is solicited in regard -to proposed contributions. I relv upon the spirit and fntelliirence of Iowa women to take advantage of this golden opportunity to make a recdra-worthy of this World's exposition, and of themselves. Iowa is known of all the world. It is the fairest arcel of the old Louisiana of which the Jrescent City is the metropolis, and she must make au exhibit worthy of her name.

The publishers are Messrs. G. P. Putnam's Sons, and the book is now ou the market. Those who want" Id know who Grover Cleveland is, and who therefore purchase this book expecting to have a fuller account of that obscure person than the newspapers have given, will be disappointed.

The volume contains 224 pages, and everything that is said in. it about the democratic candidate should be reprinted in one newspaper column of fine type. As an instance of padding, the book is most extraordinary. The body of the work is entirely filled -with matter of the sort which is ordinarily used in appendixes and printed in small type. Thus more than iour-niths ol the space is occupied with mayor's and governor's mes- saires ine uemocrauc piatiorm ana other documents.

His rooms were in the building near his law office, and his meals he-took at the restaurant." Inasmuch as there is a possibility that ne may occupy the most prominent social position in the nation, it is pleasant to be assured that al though "he has never gone much into gen eral society, ne la as- seu-possessea were as elsewhere," tand that "he never loses his head under excitement, but remains; dignified and calm." Get It and Then Locate It. Cedar Rapids Republican: We have had enongh loose general talk in the newspapers about the location of the new soldiers' home in Iowa; now let us go at It and secure the home for our state.

There are many strong reasons why' this home should be located In Iowa, which most have weight with the hon. orable gentlemen wBO constitute the locating committee. All the cities in Iowa that aspire to secure we location eovmu umw iu pressing these advantages. Cedar Rapids wants the soldiers' home: Marshalltown wants It: Des Moines wants it: Atlantic, Fort Dodge, Ottumwa, and the cities along the two great rivers which bound oar state on the east and west, all want it. Let all these cities "pool their issues" for the good of Iowa "arid-the furtherance of their several claims.

Let us first see to it that Iewa, and not some other state, secures the home. Then, let us severally make the strongest claim we can, believing that with our several claims in the nanas oi a committee oi nonur-able and unapproachable gentlemen, "what onght to be will be."

Pukuis Baoa. Ijondcm was hoaxed yesterday with a wild rumor of Queen Victoria's death. J. lie steanier xseimont was Btruck by a tornado yesterday on the Ohio river a few miles below Evansrflle, IncL, and it is re ported that thirty lives were lost, The Kreenback party of Iowa disemboweled itself at its state convention at Dee Moines on the 28th inst. The demo cratic party will accomplish a similar feat i at its state convention next week.

The greenback convention nominated one elector-at-large and five district electors. This, of course, foreshadows- the part the democratic convention will play next week. The latter will complete the fusion electoral ticket by filling the vacancies left by the greenback convention, (me elector-at-large and six. district electors. That the greenback convention would only fill a fraction of the electoral ticket, placing six greenback electors in the field, was known weeks ago to every citizen in the state who takes a newspaper or has a neighbor who fakes one.

That the democratic convention will place in nomination only seven electors is as cer tain as almost any future" event can be. Yet hdw does it happen that every intelli gent man inside the state lines of Iowa has known these future events so long in advance? Ostensibly both the greenback and democratic parties were preparing for directly tb opposite course to that which everybody knew would be taken. The call defines the convention, which will meetatDavenport next week, as "the Iowa state democratic convention," and asserts its purpose to be to place in nomination "two candidates for presidential electors from the state at large and eleven candidates for presidential district So the greenback convention met under a call asserting its purpose to be to place in nomination two candidatesfor electora-at-large, and eleven candidates for district electors. How does it come, therefore, that the greenback 'convention, its call to the contrary notwithstanding, only nominated six electoral candidates and that the democratic convention will not perform the duty imposed upon it by the call author izing; it, but will nominate only seven electoral candidates? The claim which the greenback party never tires of reiterating' is that it is the party of the people, that it loves the people more and would serve them better and represent their will more obediently than the republican party. The democratic party of Iowa.

likewise prays long on the street corners that it may be heard of men to say that i it is -the people's most humble and obedient servant. But unless the call for the democratic state convention is a deliberate fraud, it is an to the democratic voters of Iowa to send delegates to choose thirteen democratic electors. Or, to put it in another light, supposing the democratic organization in Iowa to be the instrument of the will of the democratic voters, then those voters have, by the express terms of their call, authorized their delegates in the state convention to nominate thirteen democratic electoral candidates, and no leeu Precisely the same thing was true of the greenback party. On the supposition that those parties are truly the servants of the people that compose them, no change whatever could be made, save: by the people. themselves through their regular representatives.

The question thus recurs: Who author ized the bargain which nullified the purpose as announced in the calls of both the greenback and democratic parties? The question answers itself. The masses of the greenback and democratic parties had nothing to do with the contract by which their votes were bartered and bound like so many cattle, were not consulted, no notice, and, in fact, were not considered except as chattels. The bargain which beyond dispute predetermined the action of both state conventions was originated and completed weeks before' the date of. the conventions by a handful of political bosses. Judge Einne, with a half dozen of his political boon companions, for the demo-crate, and Weaver with two or three of his dependents, for the greenbackers, met behind the secrecy of bolted doors in "a Dea Moines hotel.

In that unauthorized conclave this handful of party bosses then and there took it upon themselves to pre-pledge and bind every democrat and green- backer in the state, and to finally dispose of the campaign so that the state conventions of both parties, in which alone the voters oould be represented, become simply a farce. So far as the will of either party is concerned the Xinne-Weaver star chamber might just as well have issued a ukase from the Des Moines hotel revoking both state conventions, and placing at once their 'mongrel electoral ticket of six greenbacKers and seven democrats "the would' indeed have been more economical as it would have been more for it would have saved the people the expense of holding conventions, when thework of the conventions have already been finally transacted by the bosses. And these are the parties whose pretense is that they want office to serve the Their first step to get office is to betray the peo ple. This revelation of the spirit of boss- ism and trickery the greenback and democratic parties settles the question of republican rule in" Iowa for many1 years to oome beyond peradventure. Such disre gard of will of the people would not be tolerated for a moment in the republi can party; and every man knows it.

That the democratic and greenback; bosses should so use the masses of their parties for their own personal ends is proof incontrovertible that they would use the offices of the people in the same way, and that that is what they want office for. It shows farther that there is no principle on which either of the contracting party dares to stand for principle's sake. It keys their campaign to the spoils, and a successful opposition party will never be built up in Iowa on that basis. The druggists of.
