We had a boy in the com paay, Shelby Nornem, after whom Shelby ftorman post of the Crraod Army at MaBca tine, is named. After waiting for what seemed an age, Shelby at last grew tired of being shot at and not shooting back, and rising deliberately, amidst the hail of shot and shell, he coolly aimed his mneket and nrea. i as ne nrea a sneu irora me enemy struck his head and he fell lifeless, the first man from the state of Iowa who was killed in the war of the rebellion.

Sover eign, who waa nominated for lieutenant-gov ernor by the late union labor state conren tion, took a hand in the congressional con' test in the Ninth; district last fall. He charged that the democrat tried to boy the labor vote through him as the leader of that vote.

He displayed such magnanimity last fall towaros some of her citizens, that he deserves a complimentary vote, and will get it in a horn.

A Washington special reports a Pennsyl vania congressman as asserting that the Blaine sentiment in Pennsylvania, is not as strong as it has been, and as saying among other things the following; If Sherman will unite this element and get his own Btate, be can have Pennsylvania in the next natiunal convention. Allison we have no affinity for, but he may get there all tha same. Blaine would see lum nominated before any other man; and from what I can hear there is an understanding between Sherman and Allison by which you may be certain fewer Blaine delegates will go into the next national convention from Iowa. A woman of wit and wealth the widow of a man who in his life time wielded paramount power in the social and political affairs of the city, has taken a steo of unique interest in the literary world.

Omaha Bee: The steady and vigorous growth of Nebraska is best shown in progress and prosperity of its towns, to which our columns daily bear gratifying testimony.

A Kw Candidate. Washington special, 13: Since CI eve- land got back from the mountains a presidential whisper has been wafted over from New York. It has to do not with Gov. Hill, bni with Mayor Hewitt. The faetthafr Hew.

itt may be a candidate before the next democratic convention is one', of jfhe things the president is said to have learned while away, but the talk comes from -circles hoitlle to him and may have been started by enemies, who have, lost faith in Hill as the coming man for the anti-Cleveland democrats. It Is said that since Mr. Hewitt begun the task of ruling New York city, be has -changed from dyspeptic congressman to a cheerful- citizen who finds health and good nature in the fights his administration of tne city affairs has- brought upon him. Jiis insomnia is gone, and he is no longer the prophet of evil that caused his colleagues in congress who knew his abilities to look upon him more as a crank than as a statesman. The reason for all this is said to be that when he became mayor of New York Mr.

Hewitt made the discovery of his This was his own fitness lor executive work and hia unfitness for a legislative career where i one man 'a opinion' counted no more than anothers. Now it is stated that he is so well pleased with his success aa mayor that he is looking for a higher' executive position where the whole nation would have a chance to sound his praise. It is remembered by the anti-Cleveland men. that Hewitt haa never crossed, the threshold of the white-house since a democratic president got a four years' lease- on it. It la also known that he can discount Cleveland's support among the New York business And it is claimed he haa been successful in keeping Tammany and the county democracy from rat each -other's throat.

These p'oints of availability give some meaning to the whispers that are It Doen't Salt the Democracy. Dubuque Herald, dem.v 12: The part of the platform of the Knights of Labor greenback combination of Marshalltown, In -relation to state issues is, with one or two exceptions, so nearly alike the democratic principles on the same issues, that it seems strange thai the supporters of the former should decide to nominate a separate ticket and to refuse coalition. The aims of the democratic party in the state are in substance the same the labor convention. For instance, both are against railroad extortion and high rates. ootn lavor ice aoouuon ox toe uniawim state debt, both in favor of free homes, and against monopolistic land holding to the exclusion ol actual set tlers, both against the monopolists who controlled the last legislature, both against the state gerrymanders and.

both against the present senators. It wonld be hard to have two platforms of separate -conventions agree on essential points more closely. It showa that the democratic prin. ciples are, and have been, in favor of the just labor demands. The labor party is making a mistake if it desires success for these issues, in not uniting with the democratic In union ia a very possible triumph for these principles.

In division is a probable continuance In power of the same monopolists that controlled the last legisla ture, ui course tne ticxet nominated at Marshalltown has not the ghost of a show itself. Supporting it will be time and effort lost. A much better way will be to uphold the democratic party in Iowa. Boh Ilncolu.

His father, whom he ved, was Killed that office. Garfield, who brought him into the cabinet, was killed in the office. He had sickness in his family while he waa secretary of war.

His motner was a source of great watchfulness and heaviness on his hands. But noooay can point to a misuse he ever, made in office. He is a man of fine, grave appearance, substantial health, and a feeling of fall responsibility. They have a way of belittling him by saying that he lives on his latners name. no is eimos tne oniy man who has been in publicities inheriting the great name of a father, who haa never traded upon it.

He haa made no reference to Abraham Lincoln at any time in order to get consideration. In office he waa unassuming, nnn, not noisy or uciiuiuirr tive. Ukely to React.

Of course, there is no difference in principle between prohibiting foreign laborers, or levying protect! ye tariffa'against them, because of the cheapness of their labor, and protecting a home market against the prodnct of cheap foreign labor.

Among Mr. Wheat's qualifications for the place the Globe says: "To bexln with, he is a democrat," A Washington correspondent of the Xew York Herald denies that President Cleveland will make an extended tour of the west, in the course of which he will be the principal attraction at ant dry county nd: agricultural fairs, but eaya his proposed visit to St.

The big dog Hector is Mrs. Cleveland's special pet, and so long as she was at home he behaved himself aa befitted the first' dog in the Bnt no sooner; had Mrs.

Cleveland left for the woods, having sent Hector to the president's country -seat called Bed Top, than he began Ik raise the dickens, and the following it his rascally; record for the first dsy: In lea than twenty-four hours Hector has made tor himself a record seldom surpassed in the criminal annals of canine history, and has (covered himself with an ignominy that a doren years of upright living cannot atone lor. -Here la what he did, and all before breakfast, when the family were asleep: He went rabbit hunting, destroyed a nest of five yonng rabbits in a corner oi the garden, that had become Mrs Welch's special pets, returned to the honsn. bedraggled with dew and dirt, with one of his little victims in his mouth, dragged it across the porch, along the nallway and over the elegant parlor car pet, leaving a serpentine trail of blood and hair behind him; leaped on the plush sofa and from there to the top of the grand square piano, where he stretched himself out at full length with the rabbit between his paws, and proceeded to eat his breakfast. After getting pretty well through with the hind legs he had enongh. and leav ing the rest of the carcass on the piano he nmpea down and knocked, over a lamp and some valuable bric-a-brac.

He went out in the yard, sniffed the morning airi licked his chops, had a desperate sefcto with the fleas and went in the direction of the poultry yard. It is evident that the contest in Texas over the prohibitory amendment is becoming exceedingly bitter. In some places violent personal encounters- have occurred, and in many places the newspaper organs of the anti-prohibition side are giving forth utterances calculated to incite to violence. The following from a local Texas paper gives some idea of the personalities of the contest, although it is moderation itself aa compared with many public utterances: Who is the political apostle of prohibition in Texas? Dahoney. Who is Dahoney A renegade democrat.

As a visionary green. backer he ran against the democratic- nomi nee for congress, and as a prohibition 1st the democratic candidate for governor. He has figured in every greenback and prohibition convention in Texas, where the democratic party and platform have been belittled, spit Upon and derided. Who is the journalistic apostle of prohibition -in Texas? wanna. vvno is uranruir We oulv know him as the man- who said, through the Dallas News last year, that Ross waa a moral coward, and as the man who says he was raised on the frontier, lec tured on phrenology, kept a grocery saloon; as one who is dying for a fisticuff with Gibbs and a personal rencounter with any man who will eater the ropes.

Who called the prohibition convention Texas One of the preachers who voted for Dahoney for coventor. Who are organizing tne pronibl tion campaigns in all the counties in Texas? Chiefly the preacners wno voted lor uanoney lor governor. The newspapers are printing the spirited and sensible reply which Miss Dolph daughter of the millionaire senator from Oregon, made to a Washington woman who is a sassiety" crank. The marriage en gagement of Miss Dolph to Mr. Richard Nixon, a successful young newspaper man but poor as to funds, had just been an nounced, and it was known that a certain United States Senator had been a suitor for her hand.

The crank wanted to know of Miss Dolph why she had rejected the senatorial suiter, and got the following reply: Marry a senator Marry a man as old as my father, and one I aon't care fcr? You know senators are old men, or most of them are. lousf eel mto ins senate. When my mother and lather were married he wasn't a senator. His chances were no better than Mr. A'lxon's are now.

Journal K9 Wm, E. Chandler was yesterday elected by the New Hampshire legislature United 8tate senator for the unexpired term. The New York coffee market opened cent higher yesterday morning than Mon day's' close, bat amonjg; some brokers a gen eral feeling of suppressed excitement ruled, while others were more confident and of the opinion that the worst is orer. Washington correspondents report that President Cleveland is so delighted with his late outing; in the woods tnat he is resolved to take a second trip before the hot season. Possibly the president regards his proposed trip to St Louis as a trip to the woods.

One, of the greatest breaks in the wheat market on the Chicago board of trade oc curred yesterday, the June option IS points and the July option points TOe cause of the break is attributed to Banker "Wiltshire, of Cincinnati, who re fused to furnish the money for further run. nine the', corner and who would not out up further margirs. As a contequence of the break the failures of three or four firms was announced, among the number being the firm of Rosenfeldt A one of the leading clique brokers, and it la expected that other also will shortly have to aucenmb. It is said that "during the entire time the late ex- ice-President Wheeler was lu Washington, covering a period of about sixteen years, he never missed a praver-meetinr at the church he attended, but nobody knew It except inose who naa tne pleasure ol witnessing his inner life." And yet he accepted an office to which he had not been elected and had no title. Dnbuque Telegraph, dem.

That declaration Is not only nonsensical but Is unworthy a paper generally so charitable and broad, as the Telegraph. say that Wheeler waa not elected Is simply a bold assertion, against the historical fact that he was and' it Is further an attack upon the conclusion which is rapidly gaining ground among fair-minded democrats, north and south, that Wheeler re celved a clear majority of the honest votes actually cast In the election of 1876. But to ery that Wheeler had' "no title" is the extreme of absurdity, i No vice-president of the United States ever had a clearer title. Not only waa 1 he elected in fact, but was specifically ascertained to have been elected by a tribunal specially created to decide the matter a tribunal which the democratic party and the demo- cratic candidates helped to create, and a tribunal composed almost equally of democrats and republicans. Upon the most elaborate showing of both sides, and upon the most patient deliberation, that tribunal as certained i that Wheeler was elected vice- presidents and officially so certified.

The title to land which has been in litigation and is finally settled, is stronger than the title which has never been fortified by indicia! de cislon, and la point of law, the title of Wheeler to the chair of the vice-presidency, must, be better than any title which was never so fortified. In addition-. to this, it most- be remembered that the democracy estopped by its own subsequent acts from even raising the pretense that the 1 title of Hayes and Wheeler was fraudulent. At the very next president tial election, that of .1880, the opportunity was offered to the democracy to raise that issue, at least as a campaign device, through the renomination of Tilden and Hendricks. Samuel 3.

Tilden, It is well known, schemed and plotted to secure the nfcminatlon, and sought it on the plea of his previous defeat through fraud, but his effort was ignomlnl-onsly rejected by the democratic party. The democratic party thus officially told Samuel J. Tilden to his face that it refused to raise the issue of fraud which he represented, and by that act It made no the record against the absur claim which the Tele graph now makes in the shape of a fling at the late ex-Vice-President Wheeler, as hon orable land: aa true a man as ever sat In the vice-president's The St. ZiOU is Be publican, the state organ of the Missouri admits that the legislature: of that state, which is now in extra session, is completely under the control of the influence of the railroad corporations, i The legislature was called in extra session almost solely on the excusathat as needed railroad legislation had not been supplied at the regular session it was necessary to- have a session for that particular purpose- The Republican and other leading democratic organa at the time the call waa issued by the governor pointed out the peril of an extra'- session to the democracy. They pointed out (the fact that inasmuah as the democrats had an overwhelming ma jority in it, if the legislature at the extra session should come short of.

satisfying the expectations of the people the of such failure would rest upon the democratic It would be only the worse for the party because there has been a growing discontent among the voters of the state for a series' of years over the manner in which democratic majorities In the legists rare have been subordinated to the behests of the corporations. The Republican has even gene So far as to declare repeatedly that the issue thus raised waa one; which might easily overthrow the assendency of the democratic party in Missouri.
