pr. Bowen, appropriately termed "the
Napoleon of the wing party" of Iowa, taxi
ing advantage Of the presence Of large
body Of land buyers from Polk county,
now in the city attending the sales, made
a speech to them on Monday evening"
Whatever happy effect portions Of the
Doctors speech might have had upon his
audience, it was all spoiled at the close,
BY few remarks, as the preachers say,
by way of application. II address my
self on this OCCASION said the speaker,
''to those strangers who are present from
the western border, and are not in the ha-
bit Of listening to political addresses. p
Here followed few more remarks of the
same sort, all calculated to convey the i'm
preston that his auditors, that is ssthose
from the western border" were not up to
snuff; but were in fact the veriest mines
in Christendom.
Now within the last month we have
seen several hundred. people in town ''from
the western border," attending the land
sales; and they are the last people in the
world that ue should attempt to humbug,
if interest or caprice should prompt us to
try to humbug anybody. Besides all this
we know that politics rage even higher in
the western counties, than they do here.
1t was trite remark which we once
heard made by a clergyman from the stand
from which our friend, the Doctor, adj
dressed his "border'' audience, that
"drones do not come out west" And the
farther west we 60, the more forcibly are
we reminded Of the truth and force of the
remark. Fools and drones stay at home.
you want to humbug any body, 60 East,
not West, to do it. For those upon ''the
border" besides proving themselves too
enterprising and restless for the dull mon
otony of eastern life, have gained in addi-
ton thereto, the experience of 'sthe set
tiers upon the border"-an experience
which prompts them to be ever on the
alert for humbug, whether it be civil or
uncivil, political or non-committal.

Extra Allowances.

A great hue and cry has been raised
by the wing press, in view of the fact that
Gen. Cass, while acting as Governor of
Michigan Territory, received extra allow
ances from the general government, for ex-
ira services rendered in making treaties
for the removal of Indians, sc. These
wing editors have holy horror for any
man who receives pay for services hon
estly and faithfully performed for govern
ment. With them it is all corruption.-
To hear them talk, one would think that
the poor disinterested souls only want to
get the Offices themselves, for the purpose
of doing both Uncle Sans farm work and
his odd chores, all free gratis for nothing.
In theory they are all pure and unadul-
terated patriots. They talk like very
saints; but how do they ocn That's the
question. Who ever knew a wing to re-
fuse profitable office, if he could get it,
"a proviso, by the way, far more uniortu-
nate for them than the Wilmot abstraction)
and who ever knew one refuse to receive
any or everything in the way of regular
pay or extra allowances, which it was pos
sible for him honestly to make out of gov
ernment-general, State, county, or town
ship? No one; the thing is absurd.
As to the charges of receiving money
from government which Gen. Cass was
not justly entitled to, the wings in Con-
gress virtually admitted their ialsity, by
suppressing the statement which the pro-
per department had made in accordance
with their own call. They had another
reason, however, for suppressing it. This
was that the document also contained a
statement Of extra allowances made to Gen.
Taylor. Now we are not going to charge
their candidate with having received one
cent dishonesty from government. All
we mean to say is, that they have them
selves virtually admitted that there's good
ground for such an inference, by endeav-
oring to keep the plain statement of the
case from the eyes of the people. Those
who wish information upon this subject,
will find a statement OF the extra allow
ances made to Gen. Taylor, on our fourth
page. Men who are always ready to cry
stop theft, are not always above suspicion
themselves. They will at least bear
watching. -u.

A Deep Conspiracy against the
''OmciaI 4 rjStOcracy."

The following card appeared in the last
Republican:
Editor of the Republican,:
DEAR SIR: Permit me through your
columns, to inform the editors of the
Capital Reporter, that will furnish them
with copy Of my address, in compli-
ance with their request, if, before sending
ii to the Museum, they will publish it in
their columns; and as an inducement, that
l will pay them $40 for the insertion if
correctly published.
J. NJ. COLMAN.
Havi.g before informed our readers of
the fact that the clerk of Polk resigned,
having read a stray copy Of the 'Oficial
Aristocracy Address" above alluded to,
it is perhaps unnecessary to hint at the
deep and Disappointing design which turks
at the bottom of the Judges proposition.
Notwithstanding this, and at the evident
risk of thereby causing the seat of every
democratic office-holder in Iowa and the
Union to become vacant, we will publish
the address, if the Judge willr his bid
to one half our usual rates Of advertising.
We can afford to do this in consideration
of the hope, that in the general scramble
to refill the vacancies, ourselves, as well
as the distinguished author, may slip
into fat office which would remunerae
us for the great sacrifice which both Of
us would incur in its publication. 1t is
hard, we know, for the Judge to have
his light ru;hlessly thrust under bushel'
But if his own party press cannot help
him out of the dilemma, by publishing the
document, how can we, in the present
crowded state of our columns, be expec-
to do SO for the pitiful sum of $40, when
our usual advertising rates for publish
ing dead matter would come to about $50,
for the room which his address would
occupy. II the Judge cannst raise the
$35, we will be under the necessity OF
carefully selecting the less dangerous
portions of the address, and Of admins
tering it to the s:official aristccracy' Of
Iowa in broken doses.
