The last Eaton (O.) Register gives rich
account Of great poke stalk raising at that
place The rank and file were assembled
and due preparations made to uplift the
"symbol," liz which the locos declare they
put no trust,) bu! lott was found to be too
long and frail-and it cracked. The noise
caused thereby grated harsh thunder to the
ears of the locos and cast damper on their
proceedings. Something must be done,
however, and so they concluded to shorten
the pole which they did by topping off a
considerable portion. The poor thing could
not sustain is own weight. 1t lacked sta
nina: it wanted firm truk. 1t was fair
OF the locos. the ir principles
and everything connected with them. The
losos, Of course, were quite chop-fallen but
concluded that half pole was better than
none an smoothed over the matter by say
ing that their pole was cut OF because Van
Buren,, Cass, &c. were cut off at the Balti-
more convention.

THE last Gazette says that Mr. Dial.

las voted for the rechartering Of the U.
s. Bank. before and after Jackson's
Veto Tin compliance with instruc-
tons" We assert that such is not the
fact and we defy the Gazette to prove
il by the record or any other veritable
way. The following was the resolu-
lion passed by the Legislature of Penn
sylvania and which the locos pretend,
we suppose, instructed Mr. D. to cas-,
his influence in favor Of the u. S.
Bank:
"A,d be 1t further RESOLVED, &C.,
That connected as the prosperity Of Ag-
riculture and Manufacture is with the
successful operations and sound cnrren-
cy of the country, we view the speedy
rechar,ering of The Bank Of the U. s.,
as Of vital importance to the public wei.
fare"
How men of sense can construe such
language into instructions we cannot
divine. The fact is, that no insiruc,ing
resolutions were necessary, for it was
well known that Mr. D. was strongly
in favor Of the Bank; and he, himself,
said he was a WILLING sgent.---
There were no instructions but there
was free will on Mr. DIS part and he
acted accordingly. He afterwards pnr.
sued a strange course of conduct. At
ter saying Jackson dare not veto the
bank bill, he returned to Philadelphia.
and spoke in favor of the veto. And
then, again. in SO he wrote that he did
not doub. the constitutional power Of
the National government to charter a
Bank and he was then CONVINCED Of
the fact as he had been in times past.
These frequent changes and inconsist-
encles belong to the new system styled
progressive democracy"

worth more than a day in the Hfeless

several of the fair, a few evenings

The Fourth of July

Was celebrated in various ways by
our citizens. A goodly number Of la
dies and gentlemen took pleasure-ex-
cursion on the Shockoquon, as far as
th Iowa river. The boa. was deco.
rated with flags, and outrageous
boughs, hung from one side to the 9th.
or, made cool and refreshing shade.
The chief amusement Of those on board
was dancing, and thus were the hours
whiled away till near the "witching
time Of night" when the boat returned
to our city.
The Germans had a fete in the
country at Mr. Jacob Bomberger's. from
whence they marched into town, ac.
companied by band Of music. In the
evening they had ball in Noble and
Yates building where they waltzed
till late hour.
The Sabbath School Scholars com.
menced their celebration in the Metho-
dis. Church, where w. H. STARR, jr.
read the declaration Of independence
and T. F. GooDHuE, Esq. delivered
an interesting address. The assembly
then marched to a grove near town
where tables were arranged, laden with
various deiicacies and mic macs. 1t was
a delightful spst, beneath the shady
tree and beside the ripping brook
and the cool water gushing from the
rocky precipice. Fairy hands hae
been at work-the scene was full of pc
e!ry-should like to say much, but pol
tiles is the order of the day.

We supposed from various articles in the
papers, that Captain Tyler would have
withdrawn his name from the Presidential
canvass ere this But late Madisonian
says that he will not resign his pretensions.
He is the only man who should run in con-
necton with the Texas scheme. The same
paper says ''hs prospects are frightening
every day" Oh. Johnny Jones. what stu
p.d dolt thouart. You certainly have gold
specta cles before your eyes. Tyler will not
yield as his prospects are fair and as he is
the author of the only affirmative measure
of the locos. He is determined to head Polk
and Clay, or,-die-of course, he will die.
The locos talk about the disg raceful, de-
moralizing, and scanda lous scenes Of the
whigs-thcr singing songs. building log
cabins &c.; and they make great noise
about the campaign Of 40. People who live
in glass houses should be careful Of throw
ing stones. We scarce pick up a paper, To-
co or whig, but that we see an account of a
loco foco poke stalk or hickory raising. And
we have noticed that "speeches and music !"
are the order of exercises at their meetings
in some Of the Eastern cities.
Hawk-eye. [volume] (Burlington, Iowa) 1843-1845, 1844-07-11

We regret, ION their own account, to see
the locos so much in favor of the annexation
Of Texas. If it should take pac., they and
tn cir sub-treasurers will have no refuge to
them, who, if they fall, we should lke to
see in good quarters, and loco foco justice
done them-which last means plenty of mon
ey and freedom of locomotion.

Peace and quie. reign once more in

The calm is Of that peculiar nature
that is experienced by people dismay
ed by dreadful calamity. We trust,
however, that all will remain tranquil.
We understand that great many en-
igrants are arriving there and some are
leaving. On Friday the 2sth ult. the
bodies of Joseph and Hyram Smith,
were brought to Nauvoo, and were
met outside by about 10000 persons.
They were placed a. the Mansion
House and exhibited to about 10000
people. They were inferred the next
morning. Elder Adams has gone Eas,

The locos act very consistently indeed.
IN their favoring the annexation Of Texas =!
They are perfectly willing to ass ume a
pay it (for when assumed they may repudiate
it, as in times past)-we say they are per-
fectly willing to tax the people oc the Unit
ed States with a foreign debt but are opposed
to paying our own State debts. 1t is a
most horrible, ruinous idea to assume our
own debts but those of others, oh, it is
most noble and honorable. This conduct Is
on par with all their other act ions and we
mention it Just to show the Inconsistency of
the thing and nothing more.

WING MASS MEETING.
Saturday July 18th 1914.


We have the most cheering news to
communicate 10 our friends in regard
to the meeting on Saturday. Not on
ly along the Mississippi and Iowa but
from the interior, we learn, our friends
are coming in crowds TO join US and
celebrate the day. All are active and
are determined to aid by their presence
and prove. by their deeds, the interest
they take in the success Of Wing prin-
ciples. If the weather continues pleas
ant we expect to see larger number
than have ever been assembled in this
city before. The Shockoquon has
been engaged by the Wings of Oquaw-
ka; the Maid of Iowa wen, up the To-
wa on Tuesday to bring our friends
from that region, and we hear that the
N. Brazil will come down with the
Bloomin gton Wings and others up
North. Equally cheering accounts are
received from Mt. Pleasant and other
places, and we hope to see large dele
cations from all the interior counties.
Each township Of Des Moines will, OF
course, be duly represented.
The ladies' will not be lacking, when
their country calls, to counsenance, by
their presence, the proceedings. Ac.
Communications will be provided for
them. Several beautiful flags and ban
ners are in preparation for the occa-
sion and we expect three or four bands
of music will be here to eniven the
scene by their spirit-ssirrlng notes.
Refreshments of various kinds will be
par,aken of at the grove. Our friends
from the country will not forget this
part of the proceedings, and anything
they may bring can be deposited there,
or lef, at Jno. S. David's Store.
We need not appeal to the patriotism
of our friends. We believe they love
the principles they profess, the cause
in which they are engaged and their
country's good, too well, to be found
wanting in their duty. We confident'
ly trust to see all our friends deUoting
the 18th Of July to their country.

and wished he had prayer book. Greenhill
said, ! will give you one hour to pray.'
He (Travers) prayed on his knees, and then
threw the book to me- Greenhill then pushed
his face on the grass, and gave him blow ofthe
axe ON the back of the head, that smashed his
brains out. In seven days after, thought that
Gteenhill had mind to eat me, and he clutch

me under his eye-lasles; but did not sleep,
through fear of him. Near daylight, Pearce
took the axe from under his head while he was
