# History of Iowa From the Earliest Times to the Beginning of the Twentieth Century/4/William Larrabee

​ WILLIAM LARRABEE, twelfth Governor of Iowa, was born in Ledyard, Connecticut, January 20, 1832. His father Adam Larrabee was a graduate of West Point Military Academy and an officer in the War of 1812. The boyhood years of the son were passed on his father's farm. His education was acquired in the common schools and at the age of nineteen he became a teacher. In 1853 he started west, stopping first in Clayton County, Iowa, where he resumed teaching. For three years he was employed as foreman on a large farm belonging to Judge Williams. In 1857 he purchased an interest in the Clermont mills, Fayette County, and eventually became the sole owner of the property. Later he became engaged extensively in farming and banking. In 1867 he was nominated by the Republicans of Fayette County for State Senator and elected. He remained in the Senate for eighteen years by successive reëlections, serving the longest continuously of any member of the Iowa Legislature since the admission of the State. He was an able practical legislator and acquired by long service an intimate knowledge of public affairs, giving him great influence in shaping the laws and general State policy. During most of this period he was chairman of the committee of ways and means. In 1881 he was a candidate before the Republican State Convention for Governor but was not successful. In 1885 he received the nomination and was elected. His administration was noted for the firm stand he took in securing legislation to regulate the rates of railroad transportation and his rigid adherence to the principle of prohibition of the liquor traffic. At the close of his second term there was a formidable movement on part of the people to elect Governor Larrabee to the United States Senate. In 1893 he published a book on the “Railroad Question,” which was an able historical and practical treatise on railroads and remedies for their abuses. It is an exceedingly valuable work on a subject that has long engaged the attention of Congress and State Legislatures. Upon the creation of the State Board of Control for the management of the business of the various State institutions, Governor Larrabee was appointed one of its members and was chosen president of the board. His son, William Larrabee, Jr., was a member of the House of the Twenty-ninth General Assembly.

​ WILLIAM O. SCHMIDT is a native of Davenport, where he was born June 9, 1856. He was educated in the public schools of his native city and at the State University, entering upon the practice of law in Davenport. He has always been a Democrat and since 1896 has affiliated with the sound money wing of that party. Mr. Schmidt was a member of the House of Representatives in the Nineteenth and Twentieth General Assemblies, and a member of the Senate of the Twenty-first, Twenty-second, Twenty-third and Twenty-fourth General Assemblies, having served continuously for twelve years. He was the author of a bill for the regulation of the liquor traffic which received the indorsement of the ​Democratic party in State convention, and similar to the plan upon which Horace Boies was twice elected Governor of the State.

​ Plaster of Paris for Paint.—A writer in the Register of Rural Affairs recommends the use of plaster or ground gypsum, instead of white lead, to mix with oil for paint for outside work. IF, as he says, it is equally, in fact, more durable than white lead or zinc white, it deserves to be widely known, as the plaster is very cheap and easily obtained. Take equal parts of the plaster and white lead with oil enough to make it the consistence of cream, and run it through a paint mill. This will have a good body and be very serviceable. For painting the roof of buildings, the plaster and oil answers a good purpose, as it is durable, and when rain water is collected in cisterns, it will be found to be purer than when it comes in contact with lead. Plaster is sometimes found ground very coarse, and it should therefore be run through a paint mill before it is used.
——— Dr. Biggs, of Mitchell, Lawrence county, Ind., was, about two months ago, called upon by two men, who, being admitted to a private room, locked the door, and producing a weapon, told him they had a warrant to arrest him for having counterfeit money, but if he would give them $1,200 they would release him. The doctor gave them $300 in cash and a note for the remainder, when they left. By advice of his lawyer, no action was taken until a few days since, when one of the men returned to collect the note, when he was arrested and made to give bail in $1,500, to appear at the Circuit Court. The trial over, the man said he was a U.S. detective, showed a warrant to arrest Dr. B., and did arrest him and took him to Indianapolis.
——— A few years ago a physician of Georgetown, West Indies, examined the body of a man that had been discovered under a heap of cane-trash, or the fibrous residue of the canes, and found that the body emitted no smell, and was dried up like a mummy. He did not at the time proclaim his discovery, but immediately instituted experiments on dead animals, which completely confirmed his observations. Convinced thereby that by the fermentation of fresh cane trash a disinfecting and antiseptic gas was evolved, he immediately turned his attention to the means of employing the sugar-cane as a preservative against epidemics and contagious diseases, and as a medicinal plant generally. There happened to be at the time a great number of patients suffering from ulcers at the hospital, and a contagious gangrene had declared itself: the physician caused several tubs containing cane-trash to be placed in the wards, and the supply to be renewed at intervals. In a short time the atmosphere of the hospital was purified, the contagion entirely ceased.
If a man has nothing to say, he is sure to take much time and use many words in saying it.

COL. JOSEPH J. MORRISON, 16TH NEW YORK ARTILLERY.
Col. Morrison, now at the head of a fine artillery regiment, for which he recruited so successfully as to obtain nearly double the number required, is a native of New York city, born about 1832. On reaching manhood he became connected with the 5th company of the National Guard. Removing to St. Louis, he there was equally active in military matters and raised a militia company. When the President, in 1861, called for volunteers, he raised and drilled a company in St. Louis, but seeing little chance of service there he returned to New York and was at once chosen Captain of Co. A, 9th New York State Militia, and served with it through Gen. Patterson's campaign. After this he returned to New York and organized a light battery, with which as Captain he joined the 3d New York artillery, and fought under Gen. Barnside and Gen. Hooker through the North Carolina campaigns, distinguishing himself at Kingston, Whitehall and Goldsbore. At the latter place his battery was charged upon by three South Carolina regiments, whom he repulsed with a loss of over 700 men. His regiment was next sent to South Carolina, to reinforce Gen. Huster, and while there Capt. Morrison was selected to return to New York and raise a new Artillery regiment. He was commissioned Colonel of the 16th, and is now in command of it at Gloucester point Va. He actually has 1,800 men, but his regiment is to be reduced to 1,100, the rest being assigned to other regiments.

FOREIGN NEWS.
Maximilian accepted the crown from the Mexican deputation at Miramar on the 10th of April. The formality was conducted with great pomp. The new Emperor made a speech in reply to the deputation, stating that he was convinced that the throne was voted by a great majority of the Mexican people. After this he was addressed as Emperor and the Archduchess as Empress. The Mexican flag was hoisted at the castle of Miramar and saluted with 21 guns. The Emperor commissioned ministers to the courts of Rome, Vienna and Paris, and made quite a number of appointments for his staff and household. On the 11th of April Maximilian was seized with a low fever so that his departure was again delayed. It was thought he would set out on the 14th instant for Rome, where he goes to receive the benediction of the Pope, of which he, as he states himself, stands in great need. The Archduchess, his wife, after some very difficult negotiation in Vienna, and after renouncing her right to the throne of Austria and her income from the State, brought the Emperor Francis Joseph to Miramar to sign the great Imperial State paper of Mexico.
Duppel was still besieged and vigorously bombarded by the Germans. Its fortified works were almost silenced; but still the garrison defended the ruins with vigor. The Danes made a vigorous sortie on the Prussians, but were repulsed. The Conference had not yet assembled in London. The English House of Commons expressed some doubts of the prudence of permitting the English Delegate in the Conference to pledge the nation to any strict course of policy on the Dano-German question without the consent of the Parliament.
Garibaldi had entered London. He had a popular reception of the most enthusiastic description. The crown in the streets was about equal to that which received the Prince and Princess of Wales. Mazzini was endorsed by the working men in their address to Garibaldi. The General had private audiences with Lord Palmerston and Earl Russell. He was afterwards entertained at a banquet given by the Duke and Duchess of Sutherland. The city fêtes in his honor were to continue some days.
Lord Clarendon had gone on a private mission to Paris. It is said that he was to endeavor to allay an "irritation" which had sprang up in Napoleon's mind towards England since the Mazzini-Stansfeld exposé.
Twelve vessels, from Matamoras, Nassau and Bermuda, laden for the most part with cotton from the rebel States, reached Liverpool in two days.
The City of New York remained fast on Daunt's rock.

# Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper/Volume 18/Number 450/Gen. Banks and Staff

GEN. BANKS AND STAFF.
With the present interest attending the movements of Gen. Banks, our readers will view with pleasure the group of the General and his staff, from a strikingly good photograph of Jacobs, of New Orleans. Of Gen. Nathaniel P. Banks, the General commanding the department of the Gulf little need be said. The bobbin-boy who steadily rose by his own efforts to the highest rank in Congress, who, as a General, has displayed many high qualities and deserved success, is too well known to need a sketch here.
Brig.-Gen. Charles P. Stone, his Chief of Staff, is an old army officer, a native of Massachusetts, who entered West Point in 1841, and after acting as professor there till 1846 won distinction and promotion at Molino del Bey and Chapultepee. He is in the regular service Colonel of the 14th infantry, and till recently was Brigadier-General, having been appointed May 17, 1861, although recently mustered out.
He commanded at Ball's bluff, and was then confined in Fort Lafayette for many weary months, to be at last discharged, untried, unheard and uncondemned.
Brig.-Gen. A. S. Lee, the Chief of Cavalry, led the van in the first of the three days' fights.
Brig.-Gen Richard Arnold, Bank's Chief of Artillery, was a cadet in 1846, and in 1850 entered the service as Brevet Second Lieutenant in the 1st artillery, and became a First Lieutenant in 1854. He is now a Captain in the 5th artillery, his commission dating from May 14, 1861.
Lieut. Col. William Stretch Ahert, a son of Col. J. J. Ahert, became Second Lieutenant in the 4th artillery, June 18, 1885, and First Lieutenant March, 1857. On the 14th of May, 1861, he was made Captain in the 6th cavalry, and holds the position of Inspector-General, with the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel.
Col. E. G. Beckwiib, the Chief Commissary, was a cadet in 1838, and in 1842 entered the 2d artillery; in 1846 he rose to the grade of First Lieutenant, and became Captain in 1855. He has held the rank of Colonel on the staff since 1862.
Col. Clark was appointed an additional Aide-de-Camp, with the rank of Colonel, Nov. 18, 1861.
Major Guido Normen Lieber, a son we believe of the celebrated professor, is by birth a South Carolinian, but was appointed from New York in May, 1861, First Lieutenant in the 11th infantry.
Major Richard H. Alexander, the Medical Director, is an experienced army surgeon, whose commission dates back over a decade.
Col. James Grant Wilson is a gentleman of fine education, who previous to the war edited a paper at Chicago. Since it began he has published a volume comprising biographical sketches of the Illinois officers.
The other members of the staff are Major Von Sherman, A. D. C.; Lieut. Charles E. Sargent, S. B. Holabird, Chief Quartermaster; Capt. J. S. Crosny, A. D. C.; Capt. William B. Boe, Chief Signal Officer; Lieut.-Col. George W. Stipp, Medical Inspector; and Capt. Charles L. Bulkley, Chief of Military Telegraph.
All accounts attest the splendid conduct of the staff of Gen. Banks on the field, Col. Wilson and Col. Clark being specially mentioned.

# Historical Tales and Anecdotes of the Time of the Early Khalifahs/How Ibn-Harimah was saved from Punishment

HOW IBN-HARÎMAH WAS SAVED FROM PUNISHMENT.
IBN-HARÎMAH went into the presence of el-Mansûr, and offered him congratulations. And el-Mansûr said to him, "Ask of me thy desire." So he replied, "That thou shouldst write to thy vicegerent at el-Medînah, that should he find me drunk he is not to punish me."
"There is no means of escaping that," said el-Mansûr.
"I have no other wish," said Ibn-Harîmah.
So el-Mansûr commanded his scribe, "Write to my vicegerent at el-Medînah: If the son of Harîmah is brought to thee drunk, flog him with eighty strokes, but flog him by whom he is brought with a hundred strokes."
And the guard found him drunk; but they said, "Who would buy eighty with a hundred?" So they passed on and left him.
# Historical Tales and Anecdotes of the Time of the Early Khalifahs/El-Hajjaj and the Arab

EL-HAJJÂJ AND THE ARAB.
AN Arab was once in presence of el-Hajjâj when a repast was brought in. And people ate thereof; and afterwards some sweet fruits were produced. And el-Hajjâj took no notice of the Arab until he had eaten one mouthful, but then exclaimed, "Whoever eats of the sweet fruits shall lose his head!" So all the people refused to eat any, and only the Arab was left. He looked once at el-Hajjâj, and once at the sweet fruits, and then cried, "O Prince! I willingly leave thee the legacy of my children"—and plunged his hand into the dish. Then el-Hajjâj laughed till he rolled over on the back of his head, and ordered the man a reward.
# Historical Tales and Anecdotes of the Time of the Early Khalifahs/How 'Urwah-ibn-Udzlnah gained a Livelihood

HOW ʾURWAH-IBN-UDZÎNAH GAINED A LIVELIHOOD.
IT is said that ʾUrwah-ibn-Udzînah presented himself before Hishâm-ibn-ʾAbd-el-Málik, complaining of poverty. Hishâm asked, "Was it not thou who saidst,
'Verily I have discovered (tho' extravagance is not one of my qualities) That my subsistence will come of itself to me. I strive for it, and the pursuit of it wearies me, But I sit down, and without my pains it comes to me.'
And hast thou now come from el-Hijâz to Syria to seek a livelihood?"
He made answer, "O Commander of the Faithful! thou hast been exhorted and informed." Then he went out, and mounted his dromedary, and returned to el-Hijâz.
​And when night came, Hishâm was resting on his bed, and he thought of ʾUrwah, and said, "He is one of the Kuraish, and he spoke wisely; he came to me, and I dismissed him disappointed." So as soon as daylight appeared, he sent him a thousand dinârs.
And the messenger knocked at the door of ʾUrwah's house in el-Medînah, and gave him the money. Then said ʾUrwah, "Salute the Commander of the Faithful from me, and say to him, 'What thinkest thou now of my words? I worked hard, but found barren soil. When I returned home unsuccessful, and sat down in my house, my livelihood came of itself to me in my dwelling.'"
# Historical Tales and Anecdotes of the Time of the Early Khalifahs/How Abu-Dulamah gained all he wanted

HOW ABU-DULÂMAH GAINED ALL HE WANTED.
IT is related that one day, when the poet Abu-Dulâmah was standing in the presence of es-Saffâh, the latter said to him, "Ask of me whatever thou desirest."
"I want a sporting dog," he replied.
"Give him one," said es-Saffâh.
"And a horse upon which to hunt," he added.
"Give him a horse," said es-Saffâh.
"And a slave to lead the dog and carry the game," proceeded Abu-Dulâmah.
"Give him a slave," said es-Saffâh.
​"And a slave-girl to prepare the game, and cook it for us," continued the other.
"Give him a slave-girl," said es-Saffâh.
Then Abu-Dulâmah said, "These, O Commander of the Faithful! form a family, and without question they must have a house to live in."
"Give him a house which will hold them all," said es-Saffâh.
Presently Abu-Dulâmah added, "But though they have a house, whence are the means of living to come?"
Es-Saffâh made answer, "Verily I bestow upon thee ten ghamîrât villages in the plains of the children of Israel."
"What is the meaning of ghamîrât, O Commander of the Faithful?" asked Abu-Dulâmah.
"That which is uncultivated," answered es-Saffâh.
"Then," said Abu-Dulâmah, "I bestow upon thee, O Commander of the Faithful! a hundred ghamîrât villages in the plains of the Benu-Saʾad."
​And es-Saffâh, hearing this, laughed, and said, "I will give them all in cultivated land."
And the narrator of this tale remarks, "Observe his adroitness and cunning in asking; how he began with the sporting dog, which it was easy to grant, and made one demand lead to another, in order and amusingly, until he had gained everything he wanted. Whereas had he asked for all at once, verily it would have been refused him. May Allâh prosper him!"
* ↑ Abu-Dulâmah-Zand-ibn-el-Jaun was, according to Abu-ʾl-Fáraj, a black slave from Abyssinia. Ibn-Khalikân records many anecdotes of his ready wit, and remarks that he was celebrated for his wit, amusing adventures, acquaintance with general literature, and talent for poetry. He died A.H. 161 (A.D. 777–8), though some say that he lived to the reign of er-Rashîd, who succeeded to the Khalîfate A.H. 170.
* ↑ I am unable to explain the point of this repartee. My sheikh, who was however more apt to give any answer which he thought would satisfy me than to trouble himself with research, told me that there was no such tribe as the Benu-Saʾad; and I therefore imagined that the answer was much as if a person in the present day were to say, "I'll give you a hundred castles in Spain." But I find that there were three different tribes of that name, though there seems to be nothing in their history or locality to give point to the expression in the tale. One of these tribes appears to have been connected with the Benu-Tamîm (see Note *, p. 54), and it may be that at the epoch referred to it would have been a difficult matter for the Khalîfah to derive any benefit from the gift thus jocosely made.
